Yet for some reason they will never lose enough support to be ousted.

We all know what it's going to take to remove them.

Yea, time, about 4 more years of it.

[–] ProfHillbilly@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Do you really think they will give up power in 4 years? Trump told us we would never have to vote again. He is talking about a 3rd term and deporting American citizens.

[–] Trollception@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Absolutely. I don't live in a world where all my information comes solely from social media.

Sends innocent people to slave prison: who cares. Messes with my 401(k). BRING OUT THE GUILLOTINE!!

[–] Crikeste@lemm.ee 5 points 1 week ago (1 children)

We’ll see in 2028. Until then, they voted for this. They got exactly what was advertised. I’m happy they’re fucked, along with all the centrists and moderates. I hope you all lose every. Single. Penny.

[–] phlegmy@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 week ago

Yeah, fuck all the centrists! Who cares if any of them voted left in the last election.

The fact that they are still good friends with someone that actively claims(/claimed) to have supported Trump is damning for that tweetist.

And what am I supposed to take away from this? Cool, they're fine with racism and sexism but the economy is sancrosanct. Who is this appealing to/performing for?

[–] jj4211@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago

One of the pillars that the republicans keep claiming is that they will sell everyone out for the sake of businesses, and therefore, obviously, they will make the numbers go up better than those democrats that will sap money out of the economy to pay for useless stuff like basic human needs to those that need it.

Now you have a republican president who has:

  • Not cut any taxes
  • Imposed way more taxes
  • Tanked the markets
  • Tanked so many government benefits

It was already provably false (going back 30 years, the only prolonged 'numbers go down' have been both of Bush Jr's terms and Trump's second term), the best republican term was Trump's first and it's no better than any democrat term for the past 30 years.

So there are some people who are either fine with the racism and sexism (or don't believe/in denial about that as made up) for the sake of better personal financial fortune, and democrats have never convinced those folks that republicans actually don't have any track record to support that superstition. Trump has at least proven that he isn't good, and worse he is allowed to unilaterally act by a broader party that is afraid to conflict him.

[–] MehBlah@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

He wants a sell off and a panic. How else can they buy up what they want for nothing?

[–] inclementimmigrant@lemmy.world 34 points 1 week ago

So they won't be voting Democrat.

You know they won't.

It's performative BS.

[–] PurpleSkull@lemm.ee 29 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Lmao none of them will remember that 3 years from now when Trump or his successor run on a platform of "DEMOCRATS HAVE LOOSED THE SEWER MUTANTS ON US, WE NEVER HAD SEWER MUTANTS BEFORE SOROS FINANCED THEM. I BOLTED DOWN ALL THE MANHOLES IN NEW YORK. WHAT HAS OBAMA EVER DONE AGAINST SEWER MUTANTS?"

[–] musubibreakfast@lemm.ee 6 points 1 week ago (1 children)

That's some choice rhetoric. Hell, even the sewer mutants are going to be voting republican.

[–] Asfalttikyntaja@sopuli.xyz 2 points 1 week ago

You bet they are.

[–] ProfHillbilly@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago (2 children)

The stock market is going back up. Trump makes all these threats and it is going back up today. I don't understand.

[–] qarbone@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

That's because it's funny money predicated on many people's poor grasp of economics, fermenting into a sort of pseudo-financial speculation.

[–] Critical_Thinker@lemm.ee 4 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

A lot of influencers are telling people to buy the dip, causing prices to go up.

Tomorrow 104% china tariffs go into effect, if the last article I read is still correct. The news about this stuff changes so fast.

Friday was all doom and gloom, monday started bad but ended positive. Some might think things will return to normal... but we haven't felt the full effect of all the tariffs yet. Until we do, it will look better than it is imo.

[–] HalfSalesman@lemm.ee 1 points 1 week ago

I hope he loses all of his money. I hope he loses his home. I hope he fucking dies.

What a fucking piece of shit.

[–] technocrit@lemmy.dbzer0.com 11 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

Newsom? No surprise. This is how the libs help fascism. Nobody on the left should celebrate this creep.

[–] suite403@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

Yea... I was thinking the same. We need change, not "maybe these guys will do better now!"

I've voted Dems, but damn. We need true change, a new party for the left.

[–] easily3667@lemmus.org 28 points 1 week ago (1 children)

He's lying, come midterms he's voting red.

[–] technocrit@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 1 week ago

Yeah if he's voting for newsom.
