Imagine getting “81 million votes” then being pushed out by a drunk a few years later

You make more sense when you just type MAGA.

I know. I try to keep it short for the uneducated, illiterate folk on team Harris. MAGA folks understand me just fine.

Great piece.
Not unlike liberals calling Trump literally Hitler, then sending “thoughts and prayers” after he got shot. Very genuine.

Almost as genuine as Trump’s concern for Mike Pence on J6.

This is the guy who has pretend interviews with his imaginary LGBTQ+ friends.

I am not making that up.

… or not unlike conservatives sending “thoughts and prayers” to the families of innocent children murdered in their schools as a result of Republican gun policies. Very genuine.

I can understand how you would feel that way. It’s sad, but it’s always confession and projection with MAGA. You can’t fathom people who are profoundly opposed to a person becoming president, but not willing to kill him to prevent it from happening. Trump would kill his political opponents in a heartbeat if he could get away with it, it’s just the type of person he is, and the type of supporters he attracts. But I still don’t want him killed. Heck, I don’t even want him in jail, I just want him and his grifter kids to go away and find some other country to screw over, or just live out their life playing golf, hanging out with their billionaire buddies, and reminiscing about how great things would be if they ruled the world, and everyone was kissing their ass again.

You asked once before if you could go back in time would you kill Hitler before he rose to power? If you are a Christian or just a decent person, the answer has to be a resounding, No. Life is not yours to take and since you can’t predict how the future will unfold if you change the past, you simply have to live by a set of ethical standards that apply to all. Trump has no such standards, and neither do most of his supporters.

I come here expecting the right wing spin but it’s gotten sloppy, to the point where it comes across as the GOP trying to convince themselves of their own crap.

Look maga. No matter how hard you cry and whine…Biden isn’t coming back to run against your super old, mentally crumbling felon and his weird little couch-fucking goof VP pick.

Democrats are looking forward and sure as hell looked energized as all get out last night (Biden got a 4 minute ovation. Hillary got almost the same. The “Lock Him Up!!!” chants were thunderous).

That was just night one!

The swag they were selling outside the DNC convention was a sight to behold. The Kama Kameleon starter kits with knee pads and a “Hawk-Tuah'” tee shirt was a sell-out item.

We get it, you’re hot and bothered by a strong, liberal woman of color. Admitting it is the first step!

“But she’s not strong.”

lol

“She’s unqualified”

Sure, whatever you have to tell yourself bud. We already know what’s next. “She stole the election!” Hopefully DC police is on their A game in January so we don’t have to clean feces off the walls again.

You should try being an adult. Can’t say it is glamorous all the time, but being an overgrown toddler is glamorous none of the times.

Coming from the guys who’s fellow trumptard wear diapers and maxi-pads on their ears.

Thats not even made up. Trumpers were wearing adult diapers and maxi-pads on their ears, unironically, in support of the pants shitting felon.

Now they’re carrying around containers of JD’s “sperm”, which is totally not creepy and bizarre.

The diaper thing is completely unoriginal though, just ask Charlie Kirk.

Honestly I know most Republicans who aren’t serial cheaters or deep in the closet are totally sexually repressed but putting their fetishes on public display isn’t a healthy way of dealing with that fact.

RIP GQP August 20, 2024 at 6:57 pm

Man, these Republican water carriers sure don’t know what to say or do about Kamala & Tim without instantly owning themselves. Like, nothing at all.

The GQP is preparing for massive losses up and down the ballot. It’s going to make 2020 and 2022 look like tiny Blue ripples.

Marky Mark, are you ok? You sound a little…emotional.

“At no time did any delegate stand up and resist by saying, “No! I am pledged to vote for Joe Biden, and that is exactly what I’m going to do in Chicago.””

He released his delegates to Harris. Are you equally outraged that Haley delegates voted for Dementia J Trump at the GQP convention?

Excellent! One of the best articles describing the Democratic party. The majority of Dems have no idea of “What is Truth”.

As I read this article, I pondered how two people could have watched Joe’s speech and come away with such divergent views of the whole night. Then it dawned on me. Of course, you see it that way. You are devoted to a person who is a self-absorbed egomaniac, and you can’t even fathom a man who would put his future, his personal ambition, his ego, and what might be best for him aside for the good of his country. You can’t accept that some leaders might be devoted to something higher than themselves, because if you accept that it makes your guy small and petty, which he is.

I never argue with Trump cult members anymore. They can’t be reasoned with. They sit around and nod their heads as Trump gets up at speech after speech and spews his standard set of lies before rambling on and on about how smart he is, how attractive he is, how big his crowd sizes are, and how he is the only person in the world capable of fixing our horrible disgusting country; followed by a lecture on sharks and electric boats and Hannibal Lecter. I would advise you to look into deprogramming, but you won’t so, carry on with Trump’s deranged view of the world.
