I’d argue he is aware of this, though, which is probably why he is looking towards purging various groups of ideological mismatches.

Trump will lower grocery prices the same day he ends the war in Gaza.

And if you believe that, I’ve got a hat to sell you (*made in China).

Yeah, in general I am not hearing nearly enough about the high numbers of MAGA people in the police and the military. I’m not sure most folks have considered the gravity of that tendency.

I have seen arguments like “well let’s see Trump try X or Y; I’m sure the military would step in”. But like, what? If the military steps in it certainly won’t be to stop Trump. Quite the opposite.

Grover Cleveland’s corpse could run, though

Nokia of now is not the Nokia of yesteryear. Their new phones are just cheap Android smartphones.

Lots of stretches of the imagination all over the place about why Harris lost.

The DNC will of course do whatever it needs to make sure the mirror is not placed in front of it.

I don’t think any of that matters. Trump will say what he wants, and everyone’s principles and voting records will go out the window. They will fall in line.

The literal VP-elect under Trump is on record as a “never Trump guy”. Same principles applied. Trump spoke and everyone grovelled.

Just wait until they hear about the host of the Apprentice

The DNC in general has had an issue listening to (what used to be considered) its base for at least 10 years now, probably longer. Constant movement to the “middle” to woo independents means the current Democratic party is far, far to the right of where it should be.

Progressives in America truly have no party. Are they a large voting block? We’ll never know.

The same FBI Trump wants to eliminate?

You don’t vote fascism away. This is why it was so important for the DNC to listen this time around.

By the numbers: French or Arabic, as other commenters have mentioned.

But it really, really depends on where in the world you want to travel. If you’re interested in Asia, for example, neither French nor Spanish nor Arabic will help you much (save for some remaining French usage in Vietnam).

A better answer is: figure out where you want to go, then do the math on what to learn.

I want to see the look on every single one of these people’s faces when Trump gives Israel absolutely everything they want.

I have no respect for people who do not show the slightest propensity for critical thinking.

I heard the “but there won’t be any of these wars once Trump is back” argument several times.

I would usually revel in watching the walls come down around someone’s stupid opinions, but in this case, we as a country have to suffer for it.

This is why claiming to be a “prophet” (by any of a multitude of definitions) is so popular for cult leaders.

You can say you have information from a deity, one way or another, or even that you get special treatment from a deity. No special powers needed. If people believe in the deity and they believe you were chosen by that deity, to counteract that would mean counteracting the belief in the deity itself.

It is biased towards the rich. Much of American society and laws are biased towards the rich or biased towards large corporations.

So it is insane, but since it’s just as insane as the rest of the system, you aren’t supposed to notice.

I don’t see anything here that supports the idea that a vacancy tax would “hurt people who can least afford it”. Even if we go the anecdotal route, the location of vacant homes says very little about their owners.

Stop letting corporations gobble up single family homes.

Stop letting multi-home owners buy and buy and buy.

Tax vacant homes.
