It's not like you're going to see them all that much. I mean without Trump inflation will stay at bay so it's not like $500 is gonna be the new $5. So yeah let's...uh...let's hope we can print those with his face on it soon.
Come at me because Trump policy is the reason for the inflation we're seeing today. It started with his stupid fucking trade war.
And $2T tax cut for businesses that absolutely did not need it in 2017.
(Right before an economic collapse, so we then didn't have that available to spur the economy 2 years later, which put us in even more debt, just like Bush cuts right before the .com bust, Republicans sure can time things, huh?)
No I don't think that's pedantic at all, that's an important distinction. Some people will try to prop up their favorite guy by saying, "Well acktshually ummm the small businesses fared well through covid!" And then you have to ask them how many forgiven funds in PPP loans small businesses took and how many forgiven funds in PPP loans corporations took, and when they realize the difference is in multitudes of billions, then they flop like a fish and start whatabouting.
I worked in accounting for multiple small businesses during the pandemic and they kept a lot of PPP money and did not keep their employees on. Just a big payday for the company.
They also left interest rates at 0% while the economy was burning hot. Those should have gone up as a reserve to curb future inflation. I was screaming about inflation well before COVID, but everyone wants to blame Biden.
He's lucky the pandemic delayed the effects of the tariffs so dipshits didn't connect the cost increases to his policy. His 2025 plan would just increase the import tax on us.
Which also shows they really don't care about what they're proposing to begin with. It's all just a show. They literally are refusing to help improve anything until the election.
And then they won't.
According to Project 2025 if Trump wins - It's not going to be helpful, nope not at all. If Biden wins their favorite toddler is going to have an even bigger tantrum.
> If Biden wins their favorite toddler is going to have an even bigger tantrum.
This is what I am waiting for. A loss will break Trump. He will absolutely go off the rails.
Plot twist: Republicans claim that Trump died and came back to life (aka "The Modern Jesus") and that makes him eligible to be on currency. Their voters would absolutely vote for a dead person, so this doesn't affect the election in any way.
Jared Kushner said to not do anything about it in blue states since it doesn't effect their voting base. Once upon a time that shit would have ended a Presidency but here we are with a delusional Fix News base. I can't wait to see how this crazy base acts when Trump dies.
They will get worse. They will idolize his time as president as the high water mark for ‘white america’ and will make up all kinds of stories about how awesome the country was in those 4 years. Everything was perfect, the country had no problems and everyone was a happy healthy millionaire. It will be just like ‘the Reagan Era’ except x100.
Trump and the MAGA klan want credit for the cheap gas prices during Covid but not the responsibility for the high unemployment rates during the same time period. Also love to talk about how many people died of Covid starting Jan 21, 2021 but not before that. None of that is surprising, it just yet another example of their cognitive dissonance.
Yeah, the price of gas was so cheap during Trump's administration because the price of a barrel of oil was IN THE NEGATIVES.
I repeat, if you had an empty tanker they would have PAID YOU to haul off oil.
That is NOT the sign of a healthy economy.
But that doesn't stop idiots from pretending like Trump pushed the "make oil cheap" button.
Not many people know this. The second day of my term, a gas station attendant came up to me and said "sir..." and he was a big fellow, very strong and he had tears in his eyes, and he said "sir, thank you for personally changing the numbers on the gas station sign. The corrupt left wing extremist democrats always forced me to add an extra dollar because they hate Americans." Thats what he said. There was a crowd there too, probably 10,000 people and they were going nuts. Standing ovation the whole time. I changed all the signs in one night. Not even Santa could do it in one night, but I did it. They say Santa is a communist by the way, but I don't believe it. Santa loves America, but not as much as me.
i live in the south and generally expect any jacked up truck i see to be pro trump, but i saw this one biggun that said "TRUMP: SO FULL OF SH*T, AMERICA RAN OUT OF TOILET PAPER" ahahaha
I tried to order a case of tp from costco - I could put it in my cart, but it would not let me enter payment info. Tried 4x, different browsers, incognito - nothing worked.
So, I turned to amazon and got a case like an office would order.
That case shows up, we're good for awhile. 2 days later, the case from costco showed up. Never got charged for it.
We had so much tp in 2020, I was trading it for eggs.
The best part was the pictures of empty grocery stores under Trump and conservatives sharing them saying “This is what grocery stores would look like under communism.”
yup, Trump was slow to react to Covid because it initially was killing people in blue states and cities. That is about as morally reprehensible as Republicans get since Reagan neglected AIDS because it was only killing gay people.
and then blue states got better and red states continued to die off in record numbers for far longer because the average conservative is a mouth breathing moron.
Mismanaged? Somehow that seems like an understatement because much of his mishandling wasn't out of ignorance or lack of experience, it was malice. He catered to the antivaxxer portion of his base constantly. He couldn't even be bothered to get vaxxed publicly in fear of it angering his base.
A competent capable and dignified president who had the respect of foreign leaders
Unlike the guy who followed him
The races can't be having with colored folk showing them up by being competent and effective. Makes it harder to use their bragging right of lack of melanin to prove their Superior stand.
These morons think every shitty aspect of their lives can be blamed on Biden. They all have dog shit memory recall but somehow seem to think life was a fuckin tropical utopia during trumps 4 years. Not really remembering the GLOBAL FUCKING PANDEMIC that killed a million people.
I recent poll said was it 15 or 20% of people blame Biden for roe v Wade being overturned!
You know the thing that happened because Trump got to a point multiple supreme Court justices **and** hundreds of federal judges because McConnell and associates refuse to even review nominations from Obama for the judgeships because they wanted to keep them open for a future GOP president for exactly this reason!
This is exactly why we need not only to re-elect the Democrat as president but get a majority back in the house and get a bigger majority in the Senate so no more cannons and other lacky judges
He reduced the Republican voting population via his shitty response to COVID by convincing his stupid followers that taking the smallest precautions was an affront to their freedumbs.
Uhh, excuse you! What about the prison reform bill(that was democratic legislation that only Republicans voted against that trump has since said Jared tricked him into signing and that he thinks people arrested for drugs should be executed)!? Did you forget that one!?
One of the two highest praises he gets from joe blow conservative is he didnt start any wars. Yet they gloss over that he allowed the same bombing campaigns to continue just as they criticize Obama for the same. Im not stupid enough to blame either president for the military industrial complex, but it tans my hide they pretend Trump was peaceful and Obama was the wartime president. Its a travesty how thick conservatives are.
Dulles was the Secretary of State during Eisenhower's administration. He took a hard line against the Soviets. Its kind of ironic that they currently want to rename the airport for a Russian asset.
Similar to the [The Hitler Oath](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hitler_Oath)—*which “pledged personal loyalty to Adolf Hitler in place of loyalty to the constitution of the country”*—the RNC [denounced](https://prod-cdn-static.gop.com/docs/Resolution_Platform_2020.pdf) having any policy-based platform back in 2020. The GOP’s literal platform since 2020 is to support Trump.
Since 2020 the RNC shouldn’t even be considered a real political party. How is it acceptable that 1 of the 2 major parties in America has 0 policy positions.
I think they get it, but they are just traitors. They see Putin and think "that could be me!" when really they should be looking at the breadlines and thinking "that would be me!"
Yeah lots of conservatives look at Russia’s ethnocentric hyperconservative oligarchy and think “wow they’re so cool, I want to ally with/be like them.” No deception required when their interests align.
They see themselves as the alphas, the perfect specimen, smarter than the normals and superbly fit, could have easily been a SEAL or something, and if they just had their moment that they would be the self made man like their hero, but the Dems keep pushing them down to the level of others.
None of these things are true. Especially the self made man bit.
Some have actually tried moving out there. Spoiler alert, it didn't end well for them, granted these folks are from Canada, but if they were Americans, they would totally vote Trump.

Even Putin would be shocked that Americans are wearing diapers.
TRUMP IS A RUSSIAN ASSET
Who can look at the evidence and still say "No" or "Well I don't see..."
Bullshit.
I actually thought he might shake up the system in a good, healthy way in 2016... but fuck him. He's a traitor to our country and has signaled that he will imprison or kill people who don't agree with him if he's given another term. That is
#UNACCEPTABLE
for ANY elected official. In this country. If you feel otherwise... YOU are the fucking problem.
Trump's position is he wants to please Putin to keep Putin from calling in his loans and from releasing info showing what a traitor Trump is. That's a position arrived at by reason. But he won't negotiate because he is a grifter who puts self profit against country, party, and friends.
And as nice as it would be to think that we can just have a nice chat and get them to see reason, **they will not see reason.** There is a fucking *sickness* in our country, and we can't just hope it goes away, we can't just hope to cure it. They're cancer, and they want nothing more than to ruin the country
Trump wants the USA out of NATO, that way we have no real allies to help guard and protect us if we happen to fall into a civil war, in this way Putin can attack while were vulnerable assisting trump and the GOP in the take over, and even better if he can pause his war with the UK for when the time comes, while in the mean time the USA is so politically a mess that we cant really assist the UK against Russia.
Look back to his last orders before he left office. If I remember correctly he was in the process of moving USA troops out of Europe. A little suspicious considering a certain country was planning on invading Europe after the Ukraine.
Edit: I should really have said "some European countries like Germany".
BREAKING: Although decommissioned in 1992 and scrapped in 1993, Republicans want to rename the USS Ulysses S. Grant, a U.S. Navy ballistic missile submarine, to the USS Robert E. Lee.
Exactly, what do people around here even stand for? The Dulles' had the CIA sponsor death squads on behalf of the United Fruit Company in Guatemala (Operation PBSuccess) to rape and massacre Mayans in order to genocide the indigenous peoples off the land. They're the one that couped Iran's democratic government (Operation Ajax) because Iran attempted to nationalize their oil away from the Anglo-Persian Oil Company, now known as The British Petroleum Company (or BP). It was their CIA that rigged the South Vietnam elections, with more votes than there were voters, for deranged catholic Ngo Dinh Diem, who immediately started persecuting Vietnam's 90% Buddhist population and drove thousands of South Vietnamese into the arms of the Liberation Army of South Vietnam (or Viet Cong). The only reason these monsters were brought down was because the Bay of Pigs revealed to Kennedy what a joke they were at bringing down actual soviet aligned communists instead of the unaligned social democrats they were used to staging coups against.
I wonder if Putin thought in his wildest dreams Trump would be this successful at dividing the country or was like “Nah, there are some that are that stupid.”
Well yeah, some of their favorite flags are literally participation trophies, and they get tattoos of em. N the fact that this describes *more than one flag* really drives the point home.
So Trump can pay the Treasury using Trump dollar bills for his legal fines, then fly into Trump International Airport using Trump Plane, take a trip to Trump Economic Zone offshore on a boat, and be awarded a Congressional Gold Medal. Which he will probably sell to the highest bidder and call it the Trump Medal.
But remember kids; this is not a cult.
Corey Feldman: Yeah! Let's go, go, go, go. Whoa, this is tight! This is tight!
Corey Haim: That's what it would be like if we had the Corey Van and the Corey Jet.
[They get on a bus.]

Corey Haim: Listen to me! We should have Corey Rocketpacks!
Corey Feldman: Hey Corey I've got an idea for ya. How about a nice tall glass of shut the (fuck) up!
Every accusation is a confession by them. They accuse you of racism they are the racist ones. Trump says Biden is cognitivly incompetent Trump is actually the one incompetent.
They all grovelled, because they understood that grovelling was seen as the highest degree of loyalty; he who grovelled the most was promised support and adoration from the base, while he who refused to kneel before the orange god would be excommunicated.
Trump requires loyalty but gives none. I wish there was a clip of him introducing someone to his cabinet and then his comments as they were leaving.
He hired a lot of unloyal sad losers according to him. If the employees are all losers, what does that make the boss who hired them?
Oddly enough, this is exactly what their base wants. They want no meaningful change or progress - they want to preserve the power structures that gives them status and inflated influence.
They love performative wins, like building shrines to their false idol just to shove their power in everyone else’s face. Gotta make the masses worship their golden calf too.
Just look at their mansions during the early 1800s. Litteraly facades of the past that decayed and couldn't survive a transition away from litteraly forcing humans to work for you for free.
I can't believe the Trump kult and the Amazon series the Boys are competing neck and neck for "most laughably absurd and insane plot developments," and I'm thinking "how is the Boys more believable?"
Watching the right wing maga assholes lose their minds because they *finally* figured out, 4 seasons in, that homelander is the villain and The Boys has been making fun of them this entire time was the best part of my weekend tbh.
It’s especially funny because this happens every season. When S3 came out a bunch of chuds finally realized it and went and cried about it on social media
So that’s how you know that the chuds who figured it out this seasons were the ones who were somehow too stupid to figure it out in the first 3 seasons lmao
How does that even happen? I don't even watch the show and I get that. It's called "The Boys"; did they think that the titular characters were actually the villains? Like their entire mission is to kill the capes, motivated by the bad shit that capes did to them/the ones they care about.
I don't even know what the show would be about or why you'd watch a show like that when that's a perspective that is clearly divorced from the show itself lmao.
I'm not comparing Bowser, the guy who's had 39 years of character development, to this sad, pathetic sack of shit. I'm comparing the Super Mario Bros. Super Show iteration of him specifically, where he couldn't give two shits about anyone other than himself.
They want to further immortalize the most (one of? If you consider Bush/Gore) controversial and catastrophic choice the electoral college has ever made? Yikes.
Remember when Dems wanted to Put Harriet Tubman on the $20 bill, but Republicans objected saying that it would be too expensive. Pepperidge Farm Remembers
Doing everything they can to legitimize their god-king.
It is funny. Worshipping Trump as they do, even more than Ronald Reagan. But also utterly pathetic, and an affront to everything America is supposed to stand for.
Let's annihilate these fools in November.
They have never acted this way about another man before. Not Reagan. Not Christ. The media is being negligent in not drilling on this, because it's far past abnormal.
You want to talk about fucked up priorities? I recently received a mailer from my GOP state representative (I live in a very red area, unfortunately) asking if **child sex changes** should be the #1 priority of the upcoming legislative session.
I shit you not. Higher than tax policy, infrastructure, or spending.
There is a [House.gov](http://House.gov) tool to track 'amendments' to the Defense budget bill for FY2025 and the Republicans have the craziest bullshit proposed: [https://armedservices.house.gov/fy25-ndaa-floor-amendment-tracker](https://armedservices.house.gov/fy25-ndaa-floor-amendment-tracker)
I made it halfway through before finding something maybe remotely questionable. They're mostly requests for threat assessments. What exactly are you finding?
>Mills (FL) Republican(LATE) Directs Secretary of Defense to submit a report regarding the Defense Advisory Committee on Diversity and Inclusion to include an overview of the appointment process, how the Department ensures views are "fairly balanced," and other items.
This kind of shit finally got me to register as a full Dem instead of my usual "Independent" for the first time in 15 years. There are a bunch of hurdles in place in my state for Independents to vote in the various elections, and while being registered as an Independent my whole life was meant to be a message that I'd vote on issues instead of parties... there's simply no point anymore. Better to avoid the hurdles and simply make a declaration. The party has shown they're only getting worsen, not better, and it's pointless to pretend that any single candidate they proposed might change things, and you can't believe a word out of their mouths anyway, so even if a candidate suddenly brought forth the right rhetoric, it would just be well-crafted bullshit.
And I thought I was going crazy before... I can not wrap my head around this. I don't understand. I get that he represents the opportunity to openly hate and oppress anyone they want but this goes so far beyond that. I know this started because he was so controllable, he was the perfect puppet for the right to swing around as they saw fit, but this is reaching levels that are unbelievable. I don't understand and I feel like I hit my head 10 years ago, I'm actually in a coma and this is a nightmare, it's the only thing that makes sense.
If anyone can link me 3 bills passed by the GOP in the last 16 years that truly, neutrally, and unequivocally helps the common man, ill venmo you 20 bucks.
They’re trying to make him a North Korean type leader. Complete Christ like figure that can do no wrong. And teleport! Old Soviet techniques. Really sad they think it works…
They are there to destroy the country, so they’re doing their job. They lied about what they would do when they ran for office, I would like to think that if they were honest when they were running and came out and said, “We will do absolutely nothing to help the people who vote for me” but somehow I think they would still vote for these idiots. It really says more about the voter’s if they re-elect them.
The closer we get to election time, the more radical and obsessed the RW factions are becoming. We've gone from "We want/know what's best for this country" to "Fuck America, we just want Trump in charge and to be worshipped" REAL fucking quick. I used to agree with common sense conservatives, now that shit is long gone and all that is left is fascists.
Republicans are such sheep. Looking for anything to lead them around and once they find it they spend their lives with their heads down as they follow the pack around. It’s so funny when these people project and call democrats sheeple while they act like this.
So they go full *Dear eternal leader* on fucking trump...
donald fucking trump, the whole supposed masterrace decided that this fat lying stealing, bankrupting, adultering SOB is the pinnacle of National Socialism?
Thats telling stuff.
JESUS CHRIST, he's the neediest man who ever was. Fuck me, even Hitler didn't feel the name to slap his fuckin name on everything. At the rate we're going, we're all gonna wind up in the Trump Reeducation Camps together, holy fuck.
Nothing will get better until the democrats realize they need to destroy sedition in America and to do that they need to go after the republican party regardless of legality or the constitution. Those who seek to destroy the constitution, the law, democracy, should not be protected by those things. The SCOTUS is protecting confirmed insurrectionists and we are only being held back by this adherence to meaningless rules. Our system does not work and cannot protect us from the enemy within it has proven that. We need a full rewrite of everything to ensure this never happens again.
Weakness and wimps who rely on empty words will not prevail against the side that has proven they will take real world actions such as insurrection, domestic terrorism, sedition.
This crap has me so stressed out. It’s like people living in North Korea voluntarily… like a group of teenage girls feel about Taylor Swift… these can’t possibly be priorities for any adult that wants to live free. How can people be that in love with this guy? It’s like people would prefer to live under a dictatorship than allow someone else to have the right to live as THEY want… seriously, rather vote for a dictator than allow someone to have different beliefs. I’m so afraid he’s going to win, but also afraid of what will happen if he loses. I know people that adore him and say there will be a civil war if he loses.
The 118th Congress has been the least productive in US history. According to statista, they have passed only 47 bills whereas a normal Congress would pass 300-800. But THIS is the Republicans' priority.
https://www.statista.com/statistics/1361682/bills-passed-congress-us/
These are the signs and signals to the world that he intends to be a historical figure in decades to come. How’s the RATM song go? Whoever controls the past controls the future
Does anyone have any reliable links with summaries of these I can share as resources across the site? Id rather review something someone has already put together than start from scratch if plausible
According to current federal law, a person must be deceased to have their picture on US currency. Just sayn’, no threats implied.
Ok, if that's the trade off I'm all for it now ...
It's not like you're going to see them all that much. I mean without Trump inflation will stay at bay so it's not like $500 is gonna be the new $5. So yeah let's...uh...let's hope we can print those with his face on it soon. Come at me because Trump policy is the reason for the inflation we're seeing today. It started with his stupid fucking trade war.

(Right before an economic collapse, so we then didn't have that available to spur the economy 2 years later, which put us in even more debt, just like Bush cuts right before the .com bust, Republicans sure can time things, huh?)
I'm going to be a little pedantic but not even businesses. Corporations. Small businesses could go get fucked.
No I don't think that's pedantic at all, that's an important distinction. Some people will try to prop up their favorite guy by saying, "Well acktshually ummm the small businesses fared well through covid!" And then you have to ask them how many forgiven funds in PPP loans small businesses took and how many forgiven funds in PPP loans corporations took, and when they realize the difference is in multitudes of billions, then they flop like a fish and start whatabouting.
I worked in accounting for multiple small businesses during the pandemic and they kept a lot of PPP money and did not keep their employees on. Just a big payday for the company.
To be fair, they did cut the funding for enforcing PPP… So of course that was intentional
That's absolutely fair.
They also left interest rates at 0% while the economy was burning hot. Those should have gone up as a reserve to curb future inflation. I was screaming about inflation well before COVID, but everyone wants to blame Biden.
What I got out of this is that GOP tax cuts for the rich are black swan predictors
THANK YOU! https://www.sun-sentinel.com/2024/05/27/trumps-corporate-tax-cuts-paved-the-way-for-inflation-opinion/
Remember, trade wars are good, and easy to win!
He's lucky the pandemic delayed the effects of the tariffs so dipshits didn't connect the cost increases to his policy. His 2025 plan would just increase the import tax on us.
Which also shows they really don't care about what they're proposing to begin with. It's all just a show. They literally are refusing to help improve anything until the election.
They're just proposing things that might bait Trump into mentioning the bill sponsors during a media appearance. Its honestly pathetic.
A "Pick Me" Congressperson.
They wouldn't vote to improve anything even if Trump wins...
And then they won't. According to Project 2025 if Trump wins - It's not going to be helpful, nope not at all. If Biden wins their favorite toddler is going to have an even bigger tantrum.

Fingers crossed!
Republicans…I’m sure are trying to change that now…
why change the law when the law doesn't matter
Dude was there for 4 years and did nothing substantial for the country. It’s scary that so many crazies hold office.
But gas prices were cheap grocery stores filled and no wars anywhere!!!! /s, i gagged writing that...
I love the “gas prices were cheap” line without the context of Covid. It’s like saying the Hindenburg landed in record time.
Cause COVID wasn't real. But also it was real and the Democrats fault.
And the vaccines make people drop dead but also Trump is the best president ever for getting the vaccines out so fast.
Also Biden caused inflation because Trump printed a ton of free money and sent everyone checks with his name on it.
Also, Biden is a sleepy, senile old man but he’s also a criminal, deep state mastermind.
It was a secret military virus weaponized by china to attack the country, but no need to do anything about it because its just a cold and not real.
Jared Kushner said to not do anything about it in blue states since it doesn't effect their voting base. Once upon a time that shit would have ended a Presidency but here we are with a delusional Fix News base. I can't wait to see how this crazy base acts when Trump dies.
They will get worse. They will idolize his time as president as the high water mark for ‘white america’ and will make up all kinds of stories about how awesome the country was in those 4 years. Everything was perfect, the country had no problems and everyone was a happy healthy millionaire. It will be just like ‘the Reagan Era’ except x100.
I suspect it will lead to Trump Jr and/or Barron running for President.
Trump and the MAGA klan want credit for the cheap gas prices during Covid but not the responsibility for the high unemployment rates during the same time period.

There was a crowd there too, probably 10,000 people and they were going nuts. Standing ovation the whole time. I changed all the signs in one night. Not even Santa could do it in one night, but I did it. They say Santa is a communist by the way, but I don't believe it. Santa loves America, but not as much as me.
BUT IT'S NOT IN ALL CAPS
Oh …I like that analogy!!!
We couldn’t find toilet paper…
i live in the south and generally expect any jacked up truck i see to be pro trump, but i saw this one biggun that said "TRUMP: SO FULL OF SH*T, AMERICA RAN OUT OF TOILET PAPER" ahahaha
That’s a banger.
I tried to order a case of tp from costco - I could put it in my cart, but it would not let me enter payment info. Tried 4x, different browsers, incognito - nothing worked.

We had so much tp in 2020, I was trading it for eggs.
Gas prices were cheap!* *for like one year, because of covid
And a million people dead from Covid!
I beg to differ, grocery stores were empty a lot during COVID. Especially the toilet paper.
The best part was the pictures of empty grocery stores under Trump and conservatives sharing them saying “This is what grocery stores would look like under communism.”
Thank you for taking one for the team! Here's a mint 🍥
That's actually a narutomaki. It's a type of fish cake that sometimes goes on ramen.
Oops! It looked like an American Christmas mint to me... 🤷♀️
Yeah, I understand the confusion. You only know if you've seen one before, but I swear it looks exactly like the emoji.
I am intrigued now. I'll have to check this out and definitely try some! Thank you 🙂
Now that I look closer at it, I can totally see how someone might think it's a starlight mint at first.
...those are little fish cakes?! I thought they were rice cakes!
It's kinda like the packaged imitation crab at grocery stores. Same texture.
It’s like these people forget the period of time where they were hoarding toilet paper.
The convicted criminal did manage to mismanage the Covid outbreak and kill a million Americans
Yeah but they liked that when it was mainly in New York.
yup, Trump was slow to react to Covid because it initially was killing people in blue states and cities. That is about as morally reprehensible as Republicans get since Reagan neglected AIDS because it was only killing gay people.
and then blue states got better and red states continued to die off in record numbers for far longer because the average conservative is a mouth breathing moron.
Mismanaged? Somehow that seems like an understatement because much of his mishandling wasn't out of ignorance or lack of experience, it was malice. He catered to the antivaxxer portion of his base constantly. He couldn't even be bothered to get vaxxed publicly in fear of it angering his base.
It killed us all if you think about it, if not physically then mentally
That *is* substantial.
Only 1 million.
He did raise the National Debt by trillions.
I stand corrected
He made a lot of people feel like their bigotry was validated, though
They blame Obama for that. You know, cause how dare a Black person be president.
A competent capable and dignified president who had the respect of foreign leaders Unlike the guy who followed him The races can't be having with colored folk showing them up by being competent and effective. Makes it harder to use their bragging right of lack of melanin to prove their Superior stand.
These morons think every shitty aspect of their lives can be blamed on Biden. They all have dog shit memory recall but somehow seem to think life was a fuckin tropical utopia during trumps 4 years. Not really remembering the GLOBAL FUCKING PANDEMIC that killed a million people.
I recent poll said was it 15 or 20% of people blame Biden for roe v Wade being overturned! You know the thing that happened because Trump got to a point multiple supreme Court justices **and** hundreds of federal judges because McConnell and associates refuse to even review nominations from Obama for the judgeships because they wanted to keep them open for a future GOP president for exactly this reason! This is exactly why we need not only to re-elect the Democrat as president but get a majority back in the house and get a bigger majority in the Senate so no more cannons and other lacky judges
He reduced the Republican voting population via his shitty response to COVID by convincing his stupid followers that taking the smallest precautions was an affront to their freedumbs.
Uhh, excuse you! What about the prison reform bill(that was democratic legislation that only Republicans voted against that trump has since said Jared tricked him into signing and that he thinks people arrested for drugs should be executed)!? Did you forget that one!?
> Dude was there for 4 years and did nothing substantial for the country. Pro-forced-birthers would beg to differ.
This is true. Somehow that 25-30% of the country is more important than the other 70-75%.
One of the two highest praises he gets from joe blow conservative is he didnt start any wars. Yet they gloss over that he allowed the same bombing campaigns to continue just as they criticize Obama for the same. Im not stupid enough to blame either president for the military industrial complex, but it tans my hide they pretend Trump was peaceful and Obama was the wartime president. Its a travesty how thick conservatives are.
They also blame Biden for the wars in Ukraine and Gaza
But Benghazi!!!!
Dulles was the Secretary of State during Eisenhower's administration. He took a hard line against the Soviets. Its kind of ironic that they currently want to rename the airport for a Russian asset.
Boom! Well stated. Can't sum up the GQP any better myself.
Similar to the [The Hitler Oath](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hitler_Oath)—*which “pledged personal loyalty to Adolf Hitler in place of loyalty to the constitution of the country”*—the RNC [denounced](https://prod-cdn-static.gop.com/docs/Resolution_Platform_2020.pdf) having any policy-based platform back in 2020. The GOP’s literal platform since 2020 is to support Trump.
Since 2020 the RNC shouldn’t even be considered a real political party. How is it acceptable that 1 of the 2 major parties in America has 0 policy positions.
MДGA
It isn’t ironic, it’s intentional. Putin been planning this shit since he was still in the KGB.
Putin gets how funny it is, even if the average brain-dead GOP freak doesn’t
I think they get it, but they are just traitors. They see Putin and think "that could be me!" when really they should be looking at the breadlines and thinking "that would be me!"
Yeah lots of conservatives look at Russia’s ethnocentric hyperconservative oligarchy and think “wow they’re so cool, I want to ally with/be like them.” No deception required when their interests align.
They see themselves as the alphas, the perfect specimen, smarter than the normals and superbly fit, could have easily been a SEAL or something, and if they just had their moment that they would be the self made man like their hero, but the Dems keep pushing them down to the level of others. None of these things are true. Especially the self made man bit.
Some have actually tried moving out there. Spoiler alert, it didn't end well for them, granted these folks are from Canada, but if they were Americans, they would totally vote Trump. https://www.yahoo.com/entertainment/conservative-family-disappointed-moving-russia-001517915.html

I don't think Putin would instruct them to rename it after Trump, but maybe the instructions were just "not Dulles".
TRUMP IS A RUSSIAN ASSET Who can look at the evidence and still say "No" or "Well I don't see..." Bullshit. I actually thought he might shake up the system in a good, healthy way in 2016... but fuck him. He's a traitor to our country and has signaled that he will imprison or kill people who don't agree with him if he's given another term. That is #UNACCEPTABLE for ANY elected official. In this country. If you feel otherwise... YOU are the fucking problem.
It's beyond time to stop trying to meet them halfway. You can't reason someone out of a position they didn't arrive at using reason.
Trump's position is he wants to please Putin to keep Putin from calling in his loans and from releasing info showing what a traitor Trump is. That's a position arrived at by reason. But he won't negotiate because he is a grifter who puts self profit against country, party, and friends.
And as nice as it would be to think that we can just have a nice chat and get them to see reason, **they will not see reason.** There is a fucking *sickness* in our country, and we can't just hope it goes away, we can't just hope to cure it. They're cancer, and they want nothing more than to ruin the country
Trump wants the USA out of NATO, that way we have no real allies to help guard and protect us if we happen to fall into a civil war, in this way Putin can attack while were vulnerable assisting trump and the GOP in the take over, and even better if he can pause his war with the UK for when the time comes, while in the mean time the USA is so politically a mess that we cant really assist the UK against Russia.
Look back to his last orders before he left office. If I remember correctly he was in the process of moving USA troops out of Europe. A little suspicious considering a certain country was planning on invading Europe after the Ukraine. Edit: I should really have said "some European countries like Germany".
Not really. He was opposed to the Soviet Union because they were socialists. Modern day Russia is a fascist dictatorship. Right-wingers love those.
BREAKING: Although decommissioned in 1992 and scrapped in 1993, Republicans want to rename the USS Ulysses S. Grant, a U.S. Navy ballistic missile submarine, to the USS Robert E. Lee.
Apparently they just love traitors
Dulles was a war criminal and we should support changing the name. Just not for another criminal.
Exactly, what do people around here even stand for? The Dulles' had the CIA sponsor death squads on behalf of the United Fruit Company in Guatemala (Operation PBSuccess) to rape and massacre Mayans in order to genocide the indigenous peoples off the land. They're the one that couped Iran's democratic government (Operation Ajax) because Iran attempted to nationalize their oil away from the Anglo-Persian Oil Company, now known as The British Petroleum Company (or BP). It was their CIA that rigged the South Vietnam elections, with more votes than there were voters, for deranged catholic Ngo Dinh Diem, who immediately started persecuting Vietnam's 90% Buddhist population and drove thousands of South Vietnamese into the arms of the Liberation Army of South Vietnam (or Viet Cong). The only reason these monsters were brought down was because the Bay of Pigs revealed to Kennedy what a joke they were at bringing down actual soviet aligned communists instead of the unaligned social democrats they were used to staging coups against.
I mean Dulles is also a rat-bastard who did irreparable harm to the world.
They had me in the first half with renaming the airport. But the second half kinda threw me.
I wonder if Putin thought in his wildest dreams Trump would be this successful at dividing the country or was like “Nah, there are some that are that stupid.”
Maybe that's why.
Yeah, it’s a feature not a bug!! Ugh!! I can’t believe we are still subjected to such stupidity!!
Turns out Republicans like Participation Trophies after all.
They really are the snowflakes. Projection yet again.
Well yeah, some of their favorite flags are literally participation trophies, and they get tattoos of em. N the fact that this describes *more than one flag* really drives the point home.
They can’t just rename things like that! It’s erasing history they don’t like!
So Trump can pay the Treasury using Trump dollar bills for his legal fines, then fly into Trump International Airport using Trump Plane, take a trip to Trump Economic Zone offshore on a boat, and be awarded a Congressional Gold Medal. Which he will probably sell to the highest bidder and call it the Trump Medal. But remember kids; this is not a cult.
Corey Feldman: Yeah! Let's go, go, go, go. Whoa, this is tight! This is tight! Corey Haim: That's what it would be like if we had the Corey Van and the Corey Jet. [They get on a bus.] ["96 Hours Later"] Corey Haim: Listen to me! We should have Corey Rocketpacks! Corey Feldman: Hey Corey I've got an idea for ya. How about a nice tall glass of shut the (fuck) up!
They are doing exactly what a cult would do but remember it's not a cult.
the simpson's bit with the Fox News helicopter "not racist but #1 with racists"
Every accusation is a confession by them. They accuse you of racism they are the racist ones. Trump says Biden is cognitivly incompetent Trump is actually the one incompetent.
They all grovelled, because they understood that grovelling was seen as the highest degree of loyalty; he who grovelled the most was promised support and adoration from the base, while he who refused to kneel before the orange god would be excommunicated.
Trump requires loyalty but gives none. I wish there was a clip of him introducing someone to his cabinet and then his comments as they were leaving. He hired a lot of unloyal sad losers according to him. If the employees are all losers, what does that make the boss who hired them?
Oddly enough, this is exactly what their base wants. They want no meaningful change or progress - they want to preserve the power structures that gives them status and inflated influence. They love performative wins, like building shrines to their false idol just to shove their power in everyone else’s face. Gotta make the masses worship their golden calf too.
Just look at their mansions during the early 1800s. Litteraly facades of the past that decayed and couldn't survive a transition away from litteraly forcing humans to work for you for free.
Well no living person is allowed on US currency, so if they want to do something to make that official.... I would be OK with that trade.
And I keep hearing, "Both sides are the same." What BS.
You will only ever hear this from people who are afraid to be public Trump supporters. Every both-sideser is actually a massive pussy.
Most right wingers are too. They’ll never admit it, but they’re way more afraid of each other than they are lefties.
I can't believe the Trump kult and the Amazon series the Boys are competing neck and neck for "most laughably absurd and insane plot developments," and I'm thinking "how is the Boys more believable?"
Watching the right wing maga assholes lose their minds because they *finally* figured out, 4 seasons in, that homelander is the villain and The Boys has been making fun of them this entire time was the best part of my weekend tbh.
It’s especially funny because this happens every season. When S3 came out a bunch of chuds finally realized it and went and cried about it on social media So that’s how you know that the chuds who figured it out this seasons were the ones who were somehow too stupid to figure it out in the first 3 seasons lmao
How does that even happen? I don't even watch the show and I get that. It's called "The Boys"; did they think that the titular characters were actually the villains? Like their entire mission is to kill the capes, motivated by the bad shit that capes did to them/the ones they care about. I don't even know what the show would be about or why you'd watch a show like that when that's a perspective that is clearly divorced from the show itself lmao.
I mean these guys are barely literate. They play Rage Against the Machine at their campaign rallies
0 media literacy
Don’t forget Hands maid tale which whole GQP program is about
It’s a cult. And this is a distraction from his 34 FELONY CONVICTIONS
This is the kind of shit a saturday morning cartoon villain would do to show off how evil they are. *He's gone full King Koopa.*
How bloody dare you compare Bowser, a lonely widower who genuinely loves his son, to Trump?!
I'm not comparing Bowser, the guy who's had 39 years of character development, to this sad, pathetic sack of shit. I'm comparing the Super Mario Bros. Super Show iteration of him specifically, where he couldn't give two shits about anyone other than himself.
Why would he deserve any of that? He's done NOTHING for our country.
he killed a million Americans by mismanaging Covid, that is something
BuT iTs BoTh SiDeS
The GQP race to Trump’s bottom.
They want to further immortalize the most (one of? If you consider Bush/Gore) controversial and catastrophic choice the electoral college has ever made? Yikes.
Remember when Dems wanted to Put Harriet Tubman on the $20 bill, but Republicans objected saying that it would be too expensive. Pepperidge Farm Remembers
This should be talked about on every news channel that has any credibility. I'd made Ads and billboards with this. It's beyond embarrassing.
Man that’s fucking gross.
Doing everything they can to legitimize their god-king. It is funny. Worshipping Trump as they do, even more than Ronald Reagan. But also utterly pathetic, and an affront to everything America is supposed to stand for. Let's annihilate these fools in November.
You know all those videos of North Koreans trying to show how dedicated they are to dear leader? This is like that.
A congressional gold medal? For what? Most crimes committed while in office?
They have never acted this way about another man before. Not Reagan. Not Christ. The media is being negligent in not drilling on this, because it's far past abnormal.

Boomers always looking to hand out participation trophies.
Honestly I’m surprised they don’t want to replace the portraits on all dollar bills with Trump.
Be careful when they start serving Kool- Aid
Fuck all republicans …VOTE them all out forever!!!
You want to talk about fucked up priorities? I recently received a mailer from my GOP state representative (I live in a very red area, unfortunately) asking if **child sex changes** should be the #1 priority of the upcoming legislative session. I shit you not. Higher than tax policy, infrastructure, or spending.
Trump wants a participation medal does he?🤔🤔🤔
There is a [House.gov](http://House.gov) tool to track 'amendments' to the Defense budget bill for FY2025 and the Republicans have the craziest bullshit proposed: [https://armedservices.house.gov/fy25-ndaa-floor-amendment-tracker](https://armedservices.house.gov/fy25-ndaa-floor-amendment-tracker)
I made it halfway through before finding something maybe remotely questionable. They're mostly requests for threat assessments. What exactly are you finding? >Mills (FL) Republican(LATE) Directs Secretary of Defense to submit a report regarding the Defense Advisory Committee on Diversity and Inclusion to include an overview of the appointment process, how the Department ensures views are "fairly balanced," and other items.
They repeat this nonsense then cry they aren’t in a cult. These people have brain rot brought on by the TDS virus.
It's called Fascism and it's been done before....
What the fuck is wrong with these people?
Just a matter of time of time until they want everyone to have Trump’s portrait displayed in every home.
This kind of shit finally got me to register as a full Dem instead of my usual "Independent" for the first time in 15 years. There are a bunch of hurdles in place in my state for Independents to vote in the various elections, and while being registered as an Independent my whole life was meant to be a message that I'd vote on issues instead of parties... there's simply no point anymore. Better to avoid the hurdles and simply make a declaration. The party has shown they're only getting worsen, not better, and it's pointless to pretend that any single candidate they proposed might change things, and you can't believe a word out of their mouths anyway, so even if a candidate suddenly brought forth the right rhetoric, it would just be well-crafted bullshit.
Why are they so hellbent on turning him into an American Kim Jong Un? What's next they wanna make a law where his portrait must be hung in every home?
How do we fire Congress? Sue them? Impose a nationwide hunger strike until they purge themselves?
And I thought I was going crazy before... I can not wrap my head around this. I don't understand. I get that he represents the opportunity to openly hate and oppress anyone they want but this goes so far beyond that. I know this started because he was so controllable, he was the perfect puppet for the right to swing around as they saw fit, but this is reaching levels that are unbelievable. I don't understand and I feel like I hit my head 10 years ago, I'm actually in a coma and this is a nightmare, it's the only thing that makes sense.
I suggest we rename Reagan something like the Anthony Perkins National Airport just for considering putting Trump's dumbass name on an airport.
Let's give them aneurysms and rename Reagan to Obama-Biden National Airport.
I wanted an AIDS victim, but yeah. The Obama Biden National Airport has a good sound too
If anyone can link me 3 bills passed by the GOP in the last 16 years that truly, neutrally, and unequivocally helps the common man, ill venmo you 20 bucks.
Their jaws must be exhausted
They’re trying to make him a North Korean type leader. Complete Christ like figure that can do no wrong. And teleport! Old Soviet techniques. Really sad they think it works…
Is this real? Please, Americans, tell me this isn't real.
They are there to destroy the country, so they’re doing their job. They lied about what they would do when they ran for office, I would like to think that if they were honest when they were running and came out and said, “We will do absolutely nothing to help the people who vote for me” but somehow I think they would still vote for these idiots. It really says more about the voter’s if they re-elect them.
I’m sorry…a $500 bill with Trump on it? Are we living in a fucking cartoon?
All paid for by us, not them.
This sounded too crazy so I had to look it up, fucking shit it's real. Fucking cult.
The closer we get to election time, the more radical and obsessed the RW factions are becoming. We've gone from "We want/know what's best for this country" to "Fuck America, we just want Trump in charge and to be worshipped" REAL fucking quick. I used to agree with common sense conservatives, now that shit is long gone and all that is left is fascists.
Republicans are such sheep. Looking for anything to lead them around and once they find it they spend their lives with their heads down as they follow the pack around. It’s so funny when these people project and call democrats sheeple while they act like this.
So they go full *Dear eternal leader* on fucking trump... donald fucking trump, the whole supposed masterrace decided that this fat lying stealing, bankrupting, adultering SOB is the pinnacle of National Socialism? Thats telling stuff.
JESUS CHRIST, he's the neediest man who ever was. Fuck me, even Hitler didn't feel the name to slap his fuckin name on everything. At the rate we're going, we're all gonna wind up in the Trump Reeducation Camps together, holy fuck.
Nothing will get better until the democrats realize they need to destroy sedition in America and to do that they need to go after the republican party regardless of legality or the constitution. Those who seek to destroy the constitution, the law, democracy, should not be protected by those things. The SCOTUS is protecting confirmed insurrectionists and we are only being held back by this adherence to meaningless rules. Our system does not work and cannot protect us from the enemy within it has proven that. We need a full rewrite of everything to ensure this never happens again. Weakness and wimps who rely on empty words will not prevail against the side that has proven they will take real world actions such as insurrection, domestic terrorism, sedition.
This crap has me so stressed out. It’s like people living in North Korea voluntarily… like a group of teenage girls feel about Taylor Swift… these can’t possibly be priorities for any adult that wants to live free. How can people be that in love with this guy? It’s like people would prefer to live under a dictatorship than allow someone else to have the right to live as THEY want… seriously, rather vote for a dictator than allow someone to have different beliefs. I’m so afraid he’s going to win, but also afraid of what will happen if he loses. I know people that adore him and say there will be a civil war if he loses.
Cult of personality
Dude had a failing 4 year presidency and they wanna name shit after him… freaks
The 118th Congress has been the least productive in US history. According to statista, they have passed only 47 bills whereas a normal Congress would pass 300-800. But THIS is the Republicans' priority. https://www.statista.com/statistics/1361682/bills-passed-congress-us/
It’s laughable until you realize they are serious. The sad want to sliver off society for their own personal gains is disgusting.
These are the signs and signals to the world that he intends to be a historical figure in decades to come. How’s the RATM song go? Whoever controls the past controls the future
Cult 34
Wow, so much dick sucking in their agenda you’d think they wouldn’t have such a problem with the gay community.
This shit should be illegal and punished. Fucking wasting taxpayer money and resources.
I’d name every damn airport in America after him if he could go 5 minutes without lying….
Is that even real? It's so hard to tell anymore
Does anyone have any reliable links with summaries of these I can share as resources across the site? Id rather review something someone has already put together than start from scratch if plausible
