46% of Americans still support all of this. We’re a doomed nation full of Nazis. I feel like it’s going to get genocide/Great Depression bad.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Only place he should be backed is to a stone wall with a blindfold and 9 deputies lined up drawing a bead on him
voters threw away their future so they could "help" the poor people in Gaza from getting bombed by "the evil democrats". I SWORE UP AND DOWN voluntarily making things worse for us because it might help some poor people on the other side of the world was the wrong move and I was vilified for this opinion by everyone in existence.
Now Gaza is still getting bombed and they are additionally committing war crimes against American people instead of just Gazans. Fuck me. Even feral animals have the ability to watch out for themselves better than this season's swing voters did.
I'm convinced those people spamming that shit were bots / Russians / shills. Because as soon as the Democrats lost, they were gone.
The problem is that the damage was done. For all of the intellectual superiority we like to profess, plenty on the left are dumb as bricks and easily swayed by propaganda and bullshit.
That being said, I'm not sure they're wrong. World opinion is turning against the US and by extension what the administration stands for right now.
I won't be surprised if the next elections mark a real turning point in support for Palestinians.
please no. If we elect another fascist in the off chance it might help Gaza i'm going to go fucking postal.
I'm not saying that we should. What I am saying is that worldwide opinion has turned against the US and it's allies, this should help Palestinians.
You signed up for all of it and everyone that was opposite of you told you it’s fucking predictable it was going to happen. Even yelled out project 2025, it was right there in your face. But you don’t read a damn thing, of course you weren’t going to read that book like you don’t read the Bible. Stop. Falling. For. Obvious. Bullshit.
Someone smarter than me once said:
The dildo of consequence rarely arrives lubed.......
Well, he's right on that at least.
Tbf, some of the things he said or what’s on Project 2025 is there… people just voted for him cause he said, “I’ll make your price of eggs go lower.”

Lower than the cost in September, that’s why they’re cheering him on for that
This is literally irrelevant. That was the height of the bird flu. It wasn’t Bidens fault and if Biden had been reelected it would have sorted itself out, most likely faster because Biden would have actually made decisions based on fact and science.
I never claimed they argued in good faith
I heard some variant of, "He lies all the time, so I don't think he's serious about tariffs/Project 2025."
Which is interesting to square with the thought of, "He tells it like it is, so I trust him."
But I don't live with chronic cognitive dissonance, which I assume these people accept as just another uncomfortable feeling humans have to live with. Like aches that persist with age, or feeling exhaustion at the thought of getting out of bed and going to work. That flicker of doubt from seeing that your beliefs contradict each other is just another sensation that needs to be suppressed and ignored.
Do we really think people voted Trump based on eggs? I think we need to read between the lines here.
I didn't back him. I didn't sign up. Can I be excused please?
"Don't blame me, I voted for Kodos"
Consumes Simpsons enough to adopt it as an ideology.
"I'm wicked smhart."
Really just that one line, its been very useful in today's clownworld
Clownworld brought to by ass blasting supreme^tm ceral and fast food, it's meatacular!
Nope. Welcome to Democracy.
The US hasn’t been a democracy for a long, long time.

Yes. Unfortunately we all have to suffer because a quarter of the US population is as ignorant as a box of rocks.
That being said, he also has the option of not destroying the US economy. Nobody is forcing him to recklessly abolish society.
More than a quarter. Include everyone who didn't vote...
A box of rocks would at least have the sense not to vote for a fascist criminal.
Well I didn't back you, clown. Tariffs should then apply only to MAGAt morons and lazy ass ButBothSides types
I agree with him on this one. Leopards meet face.
Hold up. Wait. So tRUMP isn't lying for once?
His lips moved therefore a childlike fabrication should be heard, right!!??!! I think I need to have a good long sit down and think about what he's done!
he also dint do the accordian hands when hes lying.
Gotta read the fine print. And by fine print I mean Ariel Black 72pt.
