As the US becomes more isolationist (except for the occasional invasion of small, oil-producing countries), old-fashioned diplomacy will become extinct, replaced by a pay-to-play arrangement with Trump. As this article shows, it’s already in progress.
This is a perfect example of something you can use in a “both parties are the same” argument.
Resulting in an even more fascist party.
They’ve been told to. It’s one (not so great) thing to form an opinion about a group you’ve had actual, unfavorable interactions with. But it’s quite another to form those opinions about a group you never have and never will come into contact with. That requires external reinforcement, which is plentiful via Fox News (“Fair and Balanced”) and the like.
Lawyers are hired to defend you, regardless of whether or not you’re guilty. She may not have liked this, but she can’t claim she was surprised.
Yeah, the list is so long, no one has ever finished reading it.
You have to admire his belief that there will actually be a 2028 presidential election.
Writers for The Onion have never worked harder coming up with actual satire than they’ve been lately.
The conservative majority controls everything (fuck you, Mitch McConnell), so consider the act gutted.
Extremist groups inevitably splinter when arguments over who is the most extreme break out. The GOP already lost all the moderates, now it’s the turn of the “more extreme but not extreme enough” ones like Greene.
The Democratic leadership should research what happened to Nazi collaborators after WWII.
This is why I get a chuckle from guys like Ben Shapiro. He thinks he’s “one of the good ones”, but at its core, MAGA is profoundly antisemitic (by the original definition of the term). At some point, they’ll turn on him.
He sure as shit won’t be getting any better. But it won’t matter. A big part of his usefulness is distracting us from what the real fascists are doing in the background. Should Vance, for some reason, have to take over, he’ll serve a similar function.
Got mine, so fuck you worm brain.
Kash Patel’s tenure as a Trump loyalist is going smoothly, though. And that’s what matters.
He’s a Russian asset. In case there was any doubt.
Not while Trump and his minions rule.
The racism has never gone away. Obama being elected created a surge that resulted in Trump v1 and ultimately gave us v2. No one feels a need to be quiet about it now, and they’re not.
The collective memory of how dangerous milk was before pasteurization has been lost. Just like with polio before the vaccine. We’re doomed to go back to those days if things continue in the direction they’re going.
Trump does a lot of things he supposedly “can’t” do. Why would this be any different? Even if, for some reason, they pick this to say “no”, he’ll just find a way around it.
