    “The political hate needs to stop” ? Dude, did you ever listen to like 5 minutes of your beloved candidate’s speeches ?

      Not possible. Listening to the guy for more than 45 seconds is enough to make anyone want to commit suicide.

    Getting shot doesn’t kill the asshole in you. Trump is still bringing Project 2025. Dems should be saying “Call for violence, and it answers” instead of kissing ass.

      Turns out pretending to be an opposition party is wildly profitable. What other job is there where you can work four months out of the year, make millions, and all you have to do is just make a few promises to your district’s peons and then claim you’re powerless to fulfill them?

        That sounds like a winning attitude, bud. If we all voted for a willing candidate, they win. Thats it. So go vote and it doesn’t matter if they’re tepid bitches. We still beat Project 2025. Chin up, ranked choice is next after this.

          You’re right.

          It doesn’t. We’ve seen over the last forty years that it doesn’t matter who you vote for. We get a conservative. They rule as a conservative, and because of that, fascism is inevitable.

            Yes, your choice is between a conservative and a fascist.

            One of these two will murder you. The other won’t. How is this even a remotely difficult decision for you?

            (also the current “conservative” has supported the biggest expansion in union membership the USA has seen in decades, brought antitrust lawsuits against Amazon and Facebook, and extracted billions in back taxes from Microsoft, just to name a few of the actually legitimately good things the Biden administration has done; “both sides” is bullshit spread by Republicans to keep you from voting)

              No, he hasn’t.

              It happened by necessity, because the cost of living has doubled and tripled depending on where you live, meanwhile hundreds of billions that should be aiding Americans are going to other countries’ wars.

              brought antitrust lawsuits against Amazon and Facebook

              And if anything ever comes of it (which I doubt) I’ll be happy to give credit. Right now, it’s just performative.

              extracted billions in back taxes from Microsoft

              And also targeted the gig economy by pushing for changes in bank regulations that would require reporting on smaller accounts, just like an asshole conservative would.

              I only wish the ‘both sides’ thing were bullshit, but I guess it’ll take another 40 years of empty promises to change your mind.

                I’m not going to get into it about the good things that have come out of Biden’s presidency, because I don’t have to. No matter how bad you think Biden is, it’s a provable fact that Trump is worse.

                So you can vote for bad or you can vote for worse. This is still a choice that even a concussed child is capable of figuring out. What’s your excuse?

                  That’s where you’re wrong.

                  It’s not a choice, and that’s how it’s designed to be.

                  You can’t give me a giant douche and a turd sandwich and then pretend you’re offering me anything of value, and in our system, they’re both just useful idiots for the billionaire class.

                  Also, I wouldn’t go with brain injury metaphors if you’re a Democratic partisan.

    “Awesome people all over the world love trump”.

    I have been around the world and I talk to a lot of people.

    I haven’t even met anyone cool, let alone anyone awesome who knows anything about Trump who likes him.

    Abroad, they like trump because “he is rich right?”, “he stopped the Muslims? Immigration is poison” or “very funny, very funny guy” and then show me a photoshopped picture of trrmp’s head on an oiled muscleman body and laugh wildly for 3 minutes.

    “You don’t get it? It’s funny. He is good. Strong. I love this picture!”

    Alright, but like, what the fuck is this post? We saw Trump incite a coup attempt. Even if this Sticker Mule guy hates all of humanity and is trying to lead it to its demise, why would he go all the way into the opposite direction and pretend Trump is all about rainbows and happiness and friendship? Political hate has been part of Trump’s platform since day one. You don’t exactly support Trump by saying we should stop doing political hatred.

      They mean stop doing political hatred against us. They mean stop making them scared like we’ve been scared of them all this time. They don’t like that this has become real for them, the thing they created. It was all fun and games when it was all hypothetical and pretend, but now its really happening and its not as fun for them as they thought.

      This is the thing they left tried to prevent. This was the stuff the left said they wanted to lower the temperature about back in 2015 when Trump announced his candidacy. Now that its happening though, it’s the people who said they wanted it who don’t like it the most.

        Are you saying that a conservative has changed their mind about something when it has directly affected them?!

    Read as: “I want to spew my hate without repercussion but now I have to deal with the consequence of my actions”
