    You have summarized every maga interaction I’ve ever had with this single, beautiful, 3 year old meme. 😁

    I still can’t believe most republicans went with the whole “Biden is too old” but while backing trump. Like yeah, I agree, but your guy is the same fucking age, what are you doing?

      Their mose basic instinct is to troll.

      Pissing you off with bullshit is half the point to many of them; they get off on not being bound by the same rules they would impose on others.

      Hypocrisy is drawn, quartered, and fed to the dogs.

      The republicans will say absolutely any outright lie an hypocrisy that suits their narrative in the moment.

        The issue is that the democrats also do this, but to a slightly lesser extent. Why I take bigger issue with democrat voters when I argue with them is because I expect them to know better.

    It says a lot that most Dem voters hate Dem presidential candidates…

    And a significant amount of Republicans can’t stand trump…

    The most rightwing factions of both parties love it and want to talk shit and make up memes, but why the absolute fuck are we letting the furtherest right minorities from both parties run everything?

      fascists know how to use the levers of power. they worship power. the rest of us hate and avoid power. and thus the only people who want power are people who shouldn’t have it

        More than it was 3 elections ago…

        But he was “the lesser evil” to Hillary and then Biden.

        I remember a poll from before the election showed like 70% of voters were going to be displeased with either result.

        That’s a huge number, and comes from just ~20% of voters from each side not liking the person they voted for. And it seems like it was a lot more than 20%…

        But I just live in a red state, where my family all votes trump and so do most everyone else. The hometown I grew up in has went over 90% trump in the last three elections…

        So maybe you do interact with Republicans more than I do and you understand them more, but unless you live in MarLago I doubt you have to deal with them more than I do.

      Because it’s the oligarchs running both parties?

        Hopefully that changes with the DNC chair election…

        I never agreed with the accelerationists, but if Kamala had won she’d have named the chair and nothing would have changed.

        Because Trump won the DNC has a chance to improve drastically, and even if OMalley gets it, that’s still a big improvement. But I’m hoping it’s one of the others with zero connections to the neoliberal old guard
