He's already said he's basically going to be 10 times worse if he gets reelected. I'm not sure why the people who support him think that's a good thing. For a party that claims to love "freedom" they sure seem desperate to elect a fascist dictator
Freedom for me, chains for you. They don't actually care about real freedom.
They are sure the Leopard will never eat their face.
Yup. They think Daddy Trump is going lock up all the liberals and create a ~~facist~~ conservative paradise.
They love the freedom to own slaves and stuff like that
You'd think after he didn't pardon the people in person that stormed the Capitol they'd smarten up. If that didn't open their eyes, nothing will.
I cant believe how dysfunctional the us has become.
You actually voted for the biggest asshole and a retard to become president. He was wildly incompetent to the surprise of nobody. The country became a laughing stock. Secrets were leaked, justice compromised (even further), he attempted a literal coup. No, lets vote for him again.
We knew americans were dumb, but holy fuck. You need someone to protect you from yourselves because clearly your government is as caring as it is in russia. The entire population should be institutionalized.
If you think voting for literal idiots is an American thing you really haven't been paying attention.
Boris Johnson, Victor Orban, ...
You should probably be aware that the cheeto never won a majority vote in America. Our democratic system is broken to the core though, and there is basically no way to fix it which is why he still won.
Along with that a good chunk, possibly majority of Americans is already more decent than you because we don't use dehumanizing insults like the R word.
Several states have even proposed banning him from the ballot for his coup attempt, including mine. Unfortunately they are being tossed out, probably by judges that he put in power.
I think you would be surprised at how little power Americans actually have to affect change in our government. Short of dragging our knuckles and starting some uprising like his goons did, change can't happen, and I'm not one to resort to that. I'd sooner head to Canada or Mexico.
I see this take often and I see the same kinds of responses, but it's really upsetting to see the main culprit is never mentioned.
Yes, some of us are just hateful, but most of the people voting for Trump are exposed to and consume wayyyyy too much propaganda.
Our media has failed us in sooooo many ways all to chase the Almighty Dollar™. We have literal entertainment networks masquerading as "News" because they're allowed to act however they wish. We have actual "news" corporations acting like entertainment. We have Fox News and Newsmax straight up fabricating a reality for their consumers that is almost exactly the opposite of reality, and then we have CNN, MSNBC, etc, that would rather follow The Days Of Our Trumps T.V drama as opposed to actually doing hard news.
We have 1/3 of our population living in a fantasy reality, 1/3 being made to be enraged about an orange man's dumb tweet instead of learning about potentially good candidates to vote for, and 1/3 that's just apathetic to it all.
We have a gigantic media propaganda problem... We have no real press that the 1st amendment was made to protect, instead we have corporations that are taking advantage of those protections to do whatever they want to make the most money, to hell with what happens to the country...
Edit: all that to say, the people that we see as "OMG how could you possibly vote for him again, are you a monster?" Think "Trump was the best president ever, every news show or podcast or Facebook interaction I have had or watched says as much and proves it."
Liberals: we need drastic change
Also liberals: how dare someone step out of line
Once again pointing out that Trump never won the popular vote. Yes, we need to abolish the Electoral College. It favors the right wing unjustly and undermines the will of the people when it does not align with the popular vote.
Lots of people voted for him, yes. I'll make the argument that things will actually get better as the folks whose cognitive abilities are negatively impacted by a century of burning leaded gasoline start to die off. ~~I believe it's something like >95% of people born between 1945 and 1965 that have enough lead in their bodies to be cause for concern.Can't remember exactly where I read this, but you can do your own Google-Fu.~~
Striking those last couple sentences and just outright saying that over 90% of the entire population born between 1956 and 1976 were exposed to enough lead to raise medical concern in early childhood, according to the table below.
I'm also back to throw in the table/material I'm referencing. If I'm going to make assertions, I should back them up.
And the source: Half of US population exposed to adverse lead levels in early childhood
If you want some idea of how little we cared about lead exposure, just look up the Tar Creek Superfund Site., which turned three nearby populated areas into ghost towns. It's been reported that children would play on the enormous mounds around Picher, Oklahoma, and those things were covered in lead dust.
It was always that bad, it was just better at hiding it in the past. Anyone who grows up poor has always known what's up. There's a reason the crooked rural sheriff meme exists... If it wasn't for massive amounts of racism folks would probably recognize the same patterns in the cities.
It's not new, it's just that the dysfunction got so big that it started impacting the lives of white Liberals. Fuck, go read about native history in the US. They knew what was up from the beginning.
Never had a president actually affect my day to day life before. It was wild, No thanks to that ever again
I’m wracking my brain and heart trying to see what kind of work will manifest this “not again.” Voting blue seems very amiss.
Dude. I hate emojis here, but all I can say is
🤦♀️
E: no, there’s more I can say. Start with these lists:
What Biden Has Done – Year One
What Biden Has Done – Year Two
What Biden Has Done – Year Three
And then get back to us about how voting blue doesn’t help. Christ.
Wat
His brain. He is wracking it.
Not gonna lie, being a nurse during a pandemic with that jackass as president broke something in me
"Thank you for your hard work!"
(But actually thanks, nurses are the best. How can we make your day better next time we're in the hospital for something completely our own fault?)
At least he did Operation Warpspeed. Funny that some of his supporters turned on him for that.
Look on the positive side, if he comes back for a second term there’ll probably be death camps so you’ll be killed and won’t have to remember when he becomes president for life.
Put me in a Trump run death camp. Me and all my new pals will be living better than most Americans in the new order within a week. For sure would rather be there than a part of Gilead.
Fascism is great for the supporters, at first. They get to steal tooth gold.
Say what you want about Trump but he was one of the presidents ever
Some things sure did happen
I remember the shitshow. Like in general everywhere and at all times.
If there is an invisible hand, it needs to stop this. I'll stop talking to anyone under the age of 28 ever again because if even one of you doesn't vote I just cannot forgive.
why are the American people not fighting for a vote reform, to make voting on Sunday, like in every reasonable country?
Voting on Tuesdays is just designed to keep normal working people from voting.
How can you all be fine with that?
What the fuck! Whichever day you vote, is a public holiday in my country. All institutions are obliged to do so.
Don't worry, there is a slightly less senile and marginally more human out of touch old man with bad ideas here to save us. Lucky us, I know I'm inspired to be led by shitty old man A or shitty old man B.
But "My Cartoon President" will come back, I can enjoy it until the apocalypse starts.
Trump was and is a total shitshow. Anybody says otherwise is okay with his crapulence. It's just a matter of who they hate.
