I’m just curious if Republicans would be ok if there was a democratic president with Trump’s qualifications? Impeached 2 times, a sexual predator, and convicted felon? I know they wouldn’t. It’s always been about obeying their wealthy owners and never about the people they’re there to represent
Its a question people don't really want the answer to. Because it is painful.
1 24 hour news programs stopped reporting news and started commenting on news
2 The all day "opinion" feeds on cable and radio made people pick a side
3 A tribe was formed where everyone not in the tribe was the enemy /1
4 This tribalism (kind of like supporting a sports team) became huge money, so the amount of feeding the flames kept growing
5 The tribe got to the point where they didn't really stand for anything, so all they had as to stand against anything not in their tribe
/2
6 A celebrity that was willing to give voice about everyone outside their tribe being the enemy became a cult hero
7 When all you care about is hurting the enemy, you really don't care if it is lies, cheating, cons, criminal acts, etc
8 The other side became tribal (yep, we are also at fault)
/3
9 MAGA hating libs and Libs hating MAGA meant that again, it didn't matter what fact was, all that mattered was my tribe must beat the other tribe
10 MSM attacking Trump 24/7 and never talking about Biden success stories meant the My Tribe vs Your Tribe got to the point of an emotional civil war
/4
11 Billionaires were always playing the game
12 The lack of common sense and common decency meant the billionaires had a chance to simply take over
13 Billionaires stand for something, themselves
14 They have used this riff to empower and to enrich themselves
/5
15 There is no going back unless we stop the Billionaires
16 As long as all we do is attack MAGA and Trump there is no one available to stop the Billionaires
Racist fvcks, it's the gd racist fvcks with a smattering of misogyny. I hope they all have a horrible Fvcking four yrs and fully reap the benefit of their choice. I no longer feel sorry for them, I hate them.
Same...thankful my state (VA) just had special election w/ 2 Dem wins to keep our statehouse blue - small consolation. I'll focus on things I can do locally, people/nonprofits I can help til midterms. Resist the traitor loudly. Then pour energy into helping flip U.S. House/Senate back to blue.
