Seriously. Just stop dude.
If you want to talk politics, fine. But we've already heard your opinions on Trump voters 10,000 times.
We get it. Grow up. Move on.

Quote:MY thing about Trumptards is really simple: they disregard facts and live in fantasy. Does that sound esoteric/arcane? It's not. There are alcoholic Trumptards who live in the fantasy that they are not overindulging and their performance is not suffering. There are financially struggling Trumptards who live in the vulgar fantasy that well-known Pirates of Capitalism will ease their struggles. The Pirates say they aren't pirates, so it must be true because pirates never beguile victims:

It’s not clear to me that, despite their winning the votes of many who are hurting badly, Trump and his fellow billionaires are attuned to — or much care about — their pain and frustrations.
https://andrewtobias.com/pitchforks-2/
From the Patriotic Millionaires newsletter (worth reading in full):
Perhaps the biggest signal that Trump’s presidency is going to be a good time for billionaires is the fact that he has tapped a number of them to work directly in his administration.
[If confirmed], the total net worth of Trump’s Cabinet would be $11.8 billion, [100 times] the worth – $118 million – of President Biden’s current Cabinet.
And when you include non-Cabinet members like Musk, Ramaswamy, and Stephens, the figure balloons to $382.2 billion – which is more than the GDP of 172 countries.
Trump has made it no secret that he intends to deliver, and deliver big, for the wealthy.
The stock market has already rallied in anticipation. Between November 4th (the day before the election) and November 12th, America’s 815 billionaires saw their fortunes jump by $276 billion.
Musk gave $250 million to Trump’s election effort and is already reaping his reward. Reports are out that, today, Musk became the first person to top $400 billion in wealth – a 66% increase since Trump’s election.
Two weeks after the election, MSNBC ran the headline, “Could Trump and his billionaire buddies turn America into an oligarchy?” Unfortunately, if billionaires have this much wealth, influence, and power even before Trump returns to the White House, we’re already living in an oligarchy. The question should be how much worse will it get.

This is what you do. And it's called projection.
Just because you waste a lot of money everyday doesn't make you better than somebody else who doesn't.

Quote:You Trumptards lost touch with reality and don't know it, which is why they have so many family, health, and financial problems. This is NOT PROJECTION. I can see the foolishness of my local (and very silly) Trumptards. Metaphorically, the Trumptards walk around in public with their pants unzipped and down at their ankles, without underwear, while imagining they are dignified members of society. Especially Trump:

How to get away with bribery: do it in broad daylight
By Kevin Drum | Dec 12, 2024 at 1:06 AM
Um, what?
A sudden infusion of $30 million into Donald Trump's nascent cryptocurrency venture from a Chinese billionaire sued by the Securities and Exchange Commission for allegedly defrauding investors could potentially deliver an eight-figure payday to a company associated with the president-elect.
https://abcnews.go.com/US/chinese-entrepreneur-sued-fraud-invests-30-m
illion-trump/story?id=116499146
Let's break this down:
1. Weird Chinese billionaire and possible crook Justin Sun invested $30 million in World Liberty Financial a few days ago.
2. WLF sells a crypto token promoted by Donald Trump. The token can't be sold and is explicitly worthless.
3. Trump himself has no stake in WLF.
4. However, Trump does have a stake in DT Marks DEFILLC.
5. Under certain conditions, DTMDEFILLC is entitled to 75% of WLF's revenue.
6. Sun's investment triggered those conditions.
7. Sun's investment, therefore, triggers a possible $15 million payday for Trump down the road.
Did you get all that? In simpler terms, this is basically a straight-up bribe to a (soon) sitting president. But for what? This is where "possible crook" comes into play. Sun is being sued by the SEC for various acts of crypto mopery and dopery, and he'd undoubtedly like Trump to put in a good word for him. Common sense screams that this is about as illegal as could be, but the Supreme Court has defined bribery so narrowly that a conviction is all but impossible if the evidence falls anywhere short of a video with both guys cackling over the deal they made. But no such thing exists. It's all understood.
Now, it's entirely possible that Sun is just taking a flyer here and has never so much as discussed this with Trump's bodyguard's wife's cousin. It's chump change to him. But it's still an obvious appeal, and it's only possible because Trump keeps opening the door to things like this. Like he did with Truth Social and his cheap million-dollar watches.
Six weeks and then four more years of this stuff, folks. Suck in your guts.

Looks like the Liberal Patriot has a lot more figured out so far than Kevin Dumb.

But keep listening to idiots like Kevin and Second and we'll never have to worry about another Democrat being President in my lifetime.

Democrats Are Overdue for New Leadership

leadership/ar-AA1vKNhJ
Yeah. I'd say so.
You don't have one single named Democrat that will stand a chance against JD Vance in 2028.
And after it became clear on November 6th that nobody gives one single shit what Barack Obama has to say about anything anymore, I doubt even his male wife could win that one for you.
Who's it going to be? Gavin Newsom? Gretchen Whitmer? AOC? Or maybe just run Harris again?
You're FUCKED.

Trump starts the long, arduous process of reneging on his promises
National leaders who make big promises usually can't keep them. Their favorite dodge is to pretend that after weeks of intense study they now realize the opposition left them a far worse mess than they had imagined. So, you know, we probably need to lower expectations.
Donald Trump doesn't really have that option. The US government's books are pretty voluminous and transparent, and anyway, Trump has been lying for so long about how terrible things are that he can hardly claim they're even worse than that.
But that's not stopping him. On Sunday he told NBC's Kristen Welker he "couldn't guarantee" that his tariffs wouldn't raise prices. That's certainly not anything he's said before.
Then today he told Time that maybe he wouldn't be able to bring down the price of groceries after all. "It's hard to bring things down once they're up." he said, accurately. "You know, it's very hard." This, of course, was widely known all along. In fact, it would probably be disastrous if prices fell.
I expect these are just the first of many walkbacks. He can't do most of the ridiculous shit he promised over and over, and the stuff he can accomplish will mostly be because Biden already accomplished it for him. But he'll figure out a way to take credit for it anyway.

30 years could pass and we'll still never know where the Harris campaign spent $1.5 Billion to lose bigly to Trump.
We could easily strip out half of the money the US government spends every day without touching SS/Medicare/Medicaid just by halving the military budget and removing all the waste in the public sector.
Now we just sit back and wait and see if any of the campaign promises come true. If DOGE isn't just a gimmick and work is actually done, the American People will finally get to peek behind the curtain and see where our Government, particularly the Democrat party, wastes the wealth of our nation.
And hopefully 4 years from now a lot of people from both sides of the aisle are rotting in prison where they belong.
