I was listening to a podcast (Professional Left) and they played a clip of some caller who was saying the country voted for donvict because they wanted him to ignore the Constitution in order to deal with the emergency (I think she was talking about the border) and then “hopefully” he’d restore it afterwards.
JFC, these people are so very fucking stupid. I know, I know, Yahweh forbid we blame the fucking stupid voters that voted for this shit. Obviously this is all Biden and Kamala’s fault.
The number of people still mad at Biden…
I work in a college financial aid office, an one of my responsibilities is outreach to former students whose loans are in delinquent or default status. This is the only part of my job that makes me want to quit, but that’s besides the point.
The number of people who rant about Biden forgiving random people’s loans but not theirs, or forgiving student loans of celebrities and athletes (that’s apparently a talking point for these people?) is staggering.
I like to remind them that 1) Biden did try to offer sweeping forgiveness of 10-20k, but he did not have the authority to do so on his own, so he acted with the authority he had, and 2) now Republicans have full control of the executive and legislative branches, so we can wait to benefit from their plan to help students. I get crickets on that last point.
It’s basically the same group of idiots that thought Obama should’ve done more about 9/11.
He should have. Dude should have been born earlier, beaten George Bush when running for president in 2000, and been president to stop Osama. It’s so clear now. Thank you… /s
Shit, I’ve heard people unironcally bitching about how AOC didn’t help out during 9/11.
Any advice on what to do about a TEACH grant that I served 3 of my 4 years ago before my state decided that trannies can’t be teachers? Did a “borrowers defense,” was told they’d maybe look into in a year lol
These people should seriously read into German history…
Or fuck, just watch Star Wars for fucks sake if real history is too hard for them.
I think you are greatly overestimating the average Americans media literacy skills.
So Star Wars it is!
and then “hopefully” he’d restore it afterwards.
Because this is, of course, what happens, generally, based on historical facts.
Its well known most dictators step down, once the immediate emergency is over with, right folks?
Right?
I doubt that she used Cincinnatus as an example
It’s this episode…about 4 minutes in. It’s just bonkers.
I told you this the entire campaign. But America cares more about trans people than their own interest.
It sucks being right about all this because going “I told you this would happen” during the worst crisis America has faced since the civil war just makes us look petty and a dick.
I tried warning people about this. I wanted Trump in jail. I wanted Biden to push for large reforms to make people turn away from Trump’s lies about how he will personally fix the economy. I wanted the court packed into overturning every bad choice they made in the last 20 years.
And I was called defeatist and pessimistic. “It takes time to arrest someone for a crime they committed.” “Bringing that issue up would be political suicide.”
And now we’re stuck with Trump.
Right now the only victory we have is saying “I told you so” And stocking up for the next great depression
Right? My short list for Biden was, handle the covid pandemic, prosecute Trump and his cronies, close down the inhumane border camps.
He went 0/3 on it.
Ignored all for good looks on the media, despite the death tolls of each and the future death tolls with not getting Trump arrested for his crimes.
Trans people, woke people, gay people, black people. They would’ve just use everything that is popular to hate in america, and they are too dumb to realise that.
“I mean, did you see that trans athlete in some state I’ve never even been to, and have no plans on visiting?! That has serious impact to my life!!! We must elect Strong Leader to fix this, stat!” <- just about every qon idiot
“Revealed”
Fuck you. Fuck anyone surprised by any of this. They wrote it down. They lied to your face and laughed when they were called out. If you are feigning surprise you’re either willfully ignorant or outright mental.
I do believe those people are called the party of “Leopards eating my face”
The party who’s caused a recession every presidential term they’ve held power in my lifetime… Might cause a recession this time too???
Try to kick the football again Charlie Brown 🤷♂️
Might? That’s literally why the oligarchs put him in power. So they could buy everything cheap.
I don’t know why my fellow Americans can’t see the correlation
Cause they’re dumb as fuck.
Unfortunately that’s not how a large portion of the population sees it. To many the economy a president inherits matters more than the state they leave it in.
Even Trump agrees
Don’t worry it won’t be just a recession this time
That’s because “woke” just means “everything I hate.” And if there’s one thing Trump hates, it’s everything but himself.
It’s defined as “Everything I might have to expend emotional or intellectual effort to understand and be placed in a position where I might be inconvenienced, proven what I’m used to doing is wrong, or demonstrate consideration that the thoughts and feelings of others might be different than my own.”
If it’s any of that, I get to be angry about it.
Crash the economy and buy it up on the cheap while the masses are struggling.
That’s the plan
That means it’s buying season. Buckle up
Correct, they wanna crash the economy to buy up everything on the cheap with the play to keep doing this until the rich own everything.
Gotta remember he is a Russian asset and as such he is doing what his daddy Vlad wants
Found the clip where some donvict supporter calls into C-Span, advocating to just ignore the Constitution under Donvict, because, well, that’s what “the people” voted for.
Just crazy stuff. Why this hasn’t gone viral, I don’t know.
(At the 11 minute mark)

I was really surprised at first that it was a woman, but then it became pretty clear that she was an old, white woman, and then it at least made more sense. She’s (presently) unaffected by any of the bullshit that is being thrust upon women of child-bearing age, the persons of color, the non-binary folk, the young people hurt most by skyrocketing housing costs, etc; and she’s thoroughly unapologetic about her lack of empathy for any of those groups of her fellow Americans. Goddamn, what a bummer.
EDIT: Then I made the mistake of continuing to listen, and
half or moreall of the callers for the next 20 minutes are brainwashed boomers ranting about how Biden was the devil and Trump is going to save us from the illegal immigrants who are ruining all of our lives. Yeesh.You have to remember who watches C-Span enough to want to ever call in. They are, in general, not sane people.
But it does show you what some Trump fans think.
The irony is that autocracy can very well end up impacting her, as well as anyone else in the country. These people never really think it through - even if they are entirely selfish, there is no way that something like autocracy doesn’t end up being very inexact as to who it ends up harming.
Fucking boomers. That’s all they can do is repeat the exact same talking points verbatim to what they get spoonfed on Fox News. They can’t explain why, they can’t produce numbers, they can’t even get surface deep and think about the logistics about the things they’re saying. Their minds can’t perform that kind of thought.
“Why do you like Trump?” “He’s gonna get rid of them millions of e-legals that come over the border every day” “He said he would do that last time. Why didn’t he?” “The demoncrats wouldn’t let him!” “He had control of the House and Senate and…” “NO HE DIDN’T” “Um, yes he did and he here’s proof. And if he couldn’t get it done then he is incompetent.”
Lead poisoning… It had a play in the fall of Rome . Leaded gas is giving us it’s last hoorah
I’ll bet $100 his browser history is full of trans porn. These psychopaths are (nearly) always masking a desire they’re ashamed of.
I can almost guarantee it. They are constantly projecting and I’m so sick of it.
Then what if we started a PsyOps campaign with stuff that will turn him on? Like softcore gay porn propaganda of him with Putin, again.
The trade wars during the late 1920’s lead to the Great Depression. The asswipe Orange Nero is making an effort to weaken the USA.
Errrrrr…revealed?
Revealed? We always knew that was the case.
He’s trying to convert our corporate oligarchy into genuine feudalism. That’s been the right-wing MO for over half a century.
War on those who are awake?
Democrats and Republicans set him up to do it. No balanced budget, meaning we don’t spend more then is taxed, no line item budget with expenditures that is easily digestible to the public that shows real information like how much corporations are actually paying in total for taxes, with tax cuts, refunds, subsidies, you need to cruise their own financials to find out how much the fed is propping up corporations. All we get is massive trillions of dollars budget consolidations. They owe the citizens services like roads, libraries, affordable housing, because of the damn taxes we pay, hell we could likely even afford free college and hand outs to third world countries if that was all. But we are paying massive subsidies, and buying products at egregious markups, not to mention the damned bailouts to banks and wallstreet, if these bastards don’t pay taxes how the hell they giving them MY money when they get bailed out! because “we under employ hundreds of thousands, if we cowwapse all those people can’t pay their taxes and evewyting cowwapses, so bailout pwease”. Or because someone is a friend with someone so they got the government contract instead of someone that might be capable of doing an amazing job, but doesn’t have name recognition. NO DAMNIT!!! ENOUGH IS ENOUGH, IF THEY WONT PAY TAXES THEN WHAT THEY WANT THEY DON’T GET. No bailouts, no incentives for your fancy plastic devices, no discount for moving shipping here, move your shipping away and pay a tarrif equal to how much you are saving, and OUR tax dollars go to actually fix the country. I70 is a damn toll road, it costs you money to travel between states, like the physical act of passing over land has a cost associated, what the hell are my taxes paying for? Not quality education to make sure the poor dyslexic girl at McDonalds could get a good paying job ill tell you that. Best as I can tell the money I’ve ever paid in taxes is simply paying interest on bombs used to kill children. How can anyone defend this system, even if it is one of the top 100 systems around? You mean there are worse?!?!
Blyat!
