Trump has spent longer at rallies spewing insults at his personal and political enemies. The difference is that she is angry and fired up about justice and genuine love of country. Oh, and everything she said is actually true.
She needs to be DEPORTED for Hurting Trump's FEELINGS!
-Fuck Your Feelings NOT SNOWFLAKE Republicans!
Her and Bernie just had the largest political rally in Idaho since 08 Obama...
The people don't want trump
But the people don't want a shitbird neoliberals either.
For the vast amount of Dem voters, there's gonna be at least a 20 year gap between them being able to vote for something rather than just to stop a Republican.
Luckily we finally kicked the "moderates" out of DNC leadership for this first time since Jimmy Carter, longer than most of us have been alive they've had control to the detriment of America.
The reason mainstream media is finally ok with criticizing Dems. Is the neoliberals aren't in control anymore. So now the billionaires want Dem voters to fight the DNC.
Because billionaires no longer control the DNC
at least a 20 year gap between them being able to vote for something rather than just to stop a Republican.
If they can't do it twice in a row, what's the chance of 5 in a row?
None of this is false is the thing. He's literally a criminal. He literally gave out a massive stock tip before reversing direction on tariffs again…
And TREASON! He is literally the most prolific traitor in American history. Not just that, but he is a worse traitor than ALL other American traitors COMBINED!
Any discussion of his criminal activities should lead with the undeniable FACT that he is a Traitor.
There are also those 34 felony convictions. And the civil court finding that he raped a woman.
Yup. It still boggles my mind that none of that was enough to make Republicans think twice about voting for him.
Now that he's impacting them financially? Oh noes! I might not vote Republican again! 🙀
But of course, it's way too late now and we'll be lucky if we even have another election at this point.
I support this message. Hope she doesn’t get deported.
She will 100% but maybe that what need to be so a real revolution start because the peaceful protest don't do shit to stop fascist
She will 100%
Why are people up voting random bullshit like this?
There is not a 100% chance, and if there was, we wouldn't know about it.
Its almost always people who insisted no problems existed when Biden was in office though.
If you think trump won't start deporting it's political enemy ( starting by the more vocal of them ) and do a big show about it then you are living in a dreamland
And where did i say Biden had no problem?
If you think trump won’t start deporting it’s political enemy
I do think that...
But no one except trump knows that.
Someone said they hoped she wouldn't be, and you said:
She will 100%
Do you understand the problem with your statement?
And where did i say Biden had no problem?
I remarked:
Its almost always
I don't think I'm going to be able to help you here if you legitimately don't see any differences in what we're saying
Its almost always
I don’t think I’m going to be able to help you here if you legitimately don’t see any differences in what we’re saying
You think walking back on the conditionals is helping?
Too bad people couldn't be bothered to vote last year.
People voted, but the MAGA Nazis rigged the election, and we ALL know it. Too bad the Democratic leadership decided to help the MAGA Nazis cover it up, and declare that they won "fair & square." Rich Democrats like Schumer can be bought as easily as any Republican.
When trump was president the first time, we all agreed it was bad and things needed fixed.
A large amount of Dem voters held their nose and voted Biden because he was the only option and even Biden was better than trump....
But instead of fixing anything, Biden just tried to gaslight America that things were fine, and didn't actually fix anything despite having the House and Senate like trump does.
Then Biden held on to the last possible moment so there wouldn't be a primary, tried to hand the nomination to an even more historically unpopular VP who couldn't win, and she said she wouldn't do anything different, except putting a Republican in her cabinet.
So you can blame voters not voting.
But it just sounds like a shady car salesman bitching no one will buy his lemons.
It's the literal and only job for a candidate and their campaign team to win an election. We can't blame primary voters for picking a bad option, they had no say in who the candidate was.
This is bigger than your ego being wrong about what voters will put up with
We can't afford to deny reality so you feel better about your unpopular opinions about what Dem voters want.
Biden just tried to gaslight America that things were fine, and didn’t actually fix anything
You spell "things were slowly improving from disaster" and "didn't allow america to slide into recession as we emerge from global 100-year pandemic" weird.
I love how this 'gaslight' lie is itself a gaslight. Sorry Stein lost, but she couldn't have won, and wasn't supposed to. She was funded to fool you and others into forgetting it was really a binary choice, and your split votes allowed Republicans to win. Take the win.
Almost all the recovery went to the owner class, and you're fucking blaming the working class for noticing. Quit your bullshit.
It can simultaneously be true that the democrats did a god awful job campaigning, and that people are fucking idiots for not voting for them.
If Kamala would have won the neoliberals would have maintained control of the DNC another four years, would have squashed the primary again, and we'd have been stuck voting for someone we don't want who won't fix anything for 8 years...
Shit is too bad to keep not fixing it.
It would have been kicking the can down the road another couple years and we'd be in the same scenario again. Meanwhile the wealthy would continue winning and 99% of us would keep losing.
Maybe it wasn't bad for you till now, maybe you'd even be fine waiting a decade before we fixed anything....
But most Americans weren't
Getting upset that they didn't care about you after decades not caring about them makes you look at best uninformed about the entire last 50 years of American political history.
So....
How about you stop bitching that the people you wouldn't help didn't help you and start working with everyone else that needs help.
That's the way to actually get anyone help, if you're not in board, don't be surprised when no one wants to listen to you
But the Democrats didn't offer them a pony
The left:
If we don't give voters what they want, we're gonna end up with fascism.
Fascists:
Take over a country because "moderates" fight the left harder than fascism
"Moderates":
Why dont we just blame the left again?
Do you legitimately not understand what's happening now?
Because it's literally the same way Nazis came to power the first time; "moderates" fighting the left
Absolutely incredible to acknowledge that voters chose fascism because the alternative wasn't perfect enough, yet still act like they're blameless.
She’s not wrong. But she should be careful. She has a Hispanic-sounding name and brown skin. Key demographic to get deported (without trial) to a concentration camp ala’ trump.
EDIT: I didn’t mean “be careful” as in “don’t say these things,” I agree with you all-she should DEFINITELY say these things. I mean “be careful” as in “don’t walk to your car unattended, answer the door without checking, talk to police, or take any meetings with someone you don’t know.” - that sort of careful.
if she is detained and deported i will literally disown every relative of mine in the US if they dont actively riot.
I don't think she should be careful. If anything, being as loud as possible and staying in the public eye is what all Democrats should be doing. Because if they do start deporting people that actually speak the truth everyone will know when and how it happens. You can't hide it and they can't effectively make a move against her that won't be seen by the entire world. And I think it's a sign that we all need to start doing this. If we're loud and seen instead of raging behind our phone screens it's a lot harder for people to just disappear.
Exactly. We are in this mess because the Democrats and the media immediately declared an obviously rigged election to be "fair & square" the moment it was over. Being smug about the "peaceful transfer of power" was more important to those weak cowards than protecting America from being destroyed by vicious Nazi traitors.
She's literally part of the organizations that should be taking action. It's not supposed to be our job. Senators and representatives are the ones paid to be the checks and balances. The bar has been set so low now that someone in the government saying what is going on is wrong is seen as a win. The bar is buried underground at this point.
it's tripping hazard in hell, but democrats have convince everyone that it's okay because it's a dry heat.
We need more people prepared to not be careful. Being careful means acquiescing to oppression in silence. Real resistance means taking risks.
I'm actually happy that she's willing to take the risk.
We wouldn't be here if more people had taken risks before now.
Looking at you judge Juan Merchan. Capitulation doesn't protect you from fascists.
She needs to talk about rope.
