I voted for Trump in 2016 . . . because I was lied to and I fell for it

    Rounding up random brown people, including American citizens and sending them overseas to prison camps?

    That’s fine.

    Raping children for decades?

    Perfectly cool.

    Cringey blasphemy?

    HE CROSSED THE LINE

      Those are things he hasn’t tweeted or said or done on video, they are things the people who are dumb enough (all republicans) to have ever been on his side can deny or think isn’t as bad etc. This is a specific thing done by him, it’s something many of them can’t do the mental gymnastics to try to disprove, explain away or angle into something else.

      And there are millions and millions of people who are allowing their children to be raped and don’t do anything about it?

      Are the darkies getting raped also?

      For shame!

    I’d rather they burned themselves

    They’ll keep voting republican

    It’s a part of their identity

    It’s how they compensate for not having real personalities

    Do we know if the anti-Christ is aware they are the anti-Christ? Because it seems like trump just accidentally stumbled into embodying that concept so perfectly just by being his normal piece of shit self.

      Truuump gud aht 'conomy.

      That’s what so many of these dumbfucks said.

      Really, he rode the coattails of the black President’s economy and then completely bobbled things during Covid. If they think that’s doing great on the economy, I just don’t know what to say because he completely screwed the pooch on doing the very basics of handling a pandemic.

      And the types of assholes that adore him wrote things like The Unhumans and act like they were somehow repressed in 2020 because of Covid.

      As in, they think they were especially singled out for whatever fucking reason, as conservatives, by Communists (which they see everywhere) and were punished in some way.

      Instead of everyone wresting with how to deal with a goddamn pandemic, FFS. But these people who dumber than a bag of hammers will vote for him again because voting for Democrats is just gay or whatever.

    Another clip making the rounds on X featured a MAGA hat ablaze on a barbecue grill.

    They’re eating the hats …

    What a bunch of pathetic rubes. These people view politics as a team sport, and have collectively sensed that the tide is turning on the Trump regime (in no small part due to the same realization made by those like Tucker Carlson and Theo Vaughn, others within their purview). This is just an excuse for them to act out that realization. There is no moral conviction in these people whatsoever.

    We need to convince them that winning looks like the green new deal and mass unionization across all labor sectors.

      This is what happens when you refuse to think for yourself and just rely on a TV personality to tell you what to believe.

      Religion in general has conditioned Americans to operate this way.

      What we need to do is convince them never to vote again.

      If you were fooled by mango mussolini, you don’t have the brains to make good decisions when you vote. Surely you have family or friends who have been warning you about Trump for a decade now. They were right, you were wrong. Take your hands off of the steering wheel and let those more informed people drive.

    That’s going to last all of 20 minutes, then they’ll be licking his wrinkly little raisins like good stooges.
