        I don’t find him worthy of referring by name either. As a cunt obsessed with two things, one of which is putting his name literally everywhere, he just gives needy and pathetic energy. He’s unworthy. There are so many better and more appropriate names you can call him anyway. Like orange pedo rapist.

        If you wanna think we’re scared because it makes you feel less pathetic yourself, have at it, hoss. I hope you have fun riding that weird-ass high.

          Hello elder,

          as it is tradition I have come to you, now as I passed the border from a boy to becoming a man. A line you can never go back.

          Please, give me my name.

            I understand. When talking about Macron, I don’t say his name either. Not because I refuse to say his name but because I don’t need to. The mangy junkyard dog is good enough of a description that everyone knows what this refers to.

      The GOP has 20 senate seats up for election in 2026, compared to the Dem’s 13. Flipping the Senate will be pretty easy, and getting within 1 vote of removing Trump from office will be technically possible.

      All our efforts should be focused on ending the GOP in 2026. Make it such a bloody takedown that the remaining GOP gets on board with removing Trump in order to save the party.

        He already did that the first time. If he didn’t get elected a second time there might be benefit of the doubt but now everyone knows the US’s word isn’t worth shit.

        He is doing good work for Putin and China though by effectivity dissolving US soft power.

    I saw a trump supporter on twitter say he could see Trump raping his mother right in front of him and he would still vote for him.

      That person will likely never change but it doesn’t matter. We need to focus most importantly on empowering and mobilizing those who are already against Trump and focusing on those who either don’t yet have an opinion on Trump (yes they exist), those who are on the fence about him and make our case. Expand our base.

      For people in the don’t like Trump category we must teach them how effectively resist him. I think the single most important action is working on building a powerful opposition who will run in local races in 2025 and nationally in 2026. We must work to get as many Democratic votes as possible. Don’t sleep on 2025 because depending on where you live there could be judges up for election or election commissioners. It depends on where you live.

        Democrats are toast. They couldn’t beat the easiest guy to beat two times in a row. Blow the whole party up, get rid of the corporate shills, make it an actual democratic left wing party instead of a right wing party and then maybe they’ll get some votes again

        You don’t win by just saying ‘get more Democratic votes’.

        Trump won because he convinced people he was a solution for the corruption. If you want votes for someone else, offer specific solutions to address those concerns. People are fed up with politicians. If you want to sway those votes to blue you’re going to have to offer something beyond business as usual.

        There might be a need to focus on those that see your comment as super naive. Trump’s January 20th, 2025 “deportation” is the beginning of something completely different that the United States hasn’t seen since … I don’t know which US reign of terror against which minority to use as a comparison but yeah the idea of voting out a Hitler sounds so not in tune with the upcoming reality.

        And there is no stockpile of weapons or warriors or whatever to take on the resources available to Trump transforming the Office of the President of the United States of America to the Throne of Trump.

      Let’s not pretend here. Over half of America voted for him this time. Last time almost half of America voted for him.

      This is America. You can blame russia, you can blame whoever, but still the end of the day this is America and Americans fault.

      Go talk to the 60% of white people in this country who voted for him and make them realize that they are idiots and racists. Then maybe you’ll get a change.

        Nope, less than half of eligible voters did in fact vote for Trump. This is quite less than half of America in addition.

        63% of eligible voters voted in 2024 and 49% of the popular vote went to Orange Hitler.

        155000000 out of 244000000 voters voted roughly. About 76000000 voted for the orange pedo, which is about 23% of the USA’s population of 336000000.

        Not half the population. Using approximates:

        US population: 345 million

        Can vote: 245 million

        Did actually vote: 156 million (63%)

        Voted drump: Just over half (78 million or 50.5%) of those that voted

        US population who voted for tangerine: Around 22%, or 1 in 4

        US population who could vote and did vote for tangerine: 31%, or 1 in 3

          No, you can blame propaganda telling those voters in safe states to stay home. So even tho Trump won the electoral college handily, those stupid fuckers fell for the crap because they’re fucking lazy and gave him both houses of Congress and a slew of right wing state level govts.

          Non-voters paved the path for dicktaster Trump because so many people bitched and moaned about votes “not counting” (yes they fucking do, 99.99% of races aren’t the president) and propagandists picked up on that and amplified the hell out of that message.

          Note: no evidence, just my own angry rant about my own observations of this last election

          I don’t think it’s as bad as people think. We have all believed, believe, and will believe misinformation. It’s a part of being human.

          You are prompted to check at some point; someone tells you you’re wrong, you are curious, things feel incongruous, whatever. You find out you’re wrong and you update your shit. Easy, life goes on.

          But certain people seem to actively shop for rhetoric that will look good on their shelves. You tell them they’re wrong and they dig in. They usually have no filter and say their ideas out loud even if it denigrates others.

          It’s like propaganda is a chemical being injected that binds with cancer cells so you can more easily see them with the naked eye. The chemical touches everything but it “reacts” with the cancer.

          Yeah propaganda exists but the point is that this is already who the US has shown themselves to be. It is and has been a racist oligarchy for as long as I’ve been alive, and most likely longer.

          The second Obama won you had shitheads burning efficiency of him or hanging him from trees.

          My point is it’s easy to blame Russian interference, etc. It’s harder to look inwards and realize that oh hey, this country is actually just not thatbgreat and we’ve been living on lies for the last 80 years.

          It is deeply, deeply racist and always has been. It is deeply oligarchical, and always has been.

          There is more in common with modern day russia than there is with any civilized 1st world country in western Europe.

            Love that typo, autocorrect strikes again. But I wouldn’t say the country is deeply, deeply racist. That just feels a little harsh. It’s racist for sure, but I would reserve the double deep for when slavery was still allowed. Also I think it is a bit of human nature to be racist in that humans naturally form groups, and race is an easy way to do it for a lot of people. Humans just haven’t evolved at the same rate our technology and society have. You have to put effort into not being racist (unconscious bias) and a lot of people just don’t know that. Others don’t care. The number of countries that are more racist than the US is probably greater than those that are less. We still all have a lot of work to do, but it’s going to take time.

              I deeply disagree with this. You are not born a rasist and this is something you have to work against. Young children are not rasist, it is created by society and the enviroment you grow up in. Don’t call it human nature. Yeah, if you meet person from a tribe that has never seen a white person before they will think you look funny, but they wont mistreat you. Rasist mistreats you for looking different. In today and age it is beyond bullshit to say you have never seen person of color before so that excuse is not enough either.
