I’ve made it my personal mission to sit down with those I disagree with and have tough, honest, respectful conversations. That’s not what Gavin Newsom did with Steve Bannon, and it’s not what Bill Maher did with Trump. Today’s Substack. Check it out.👇 open.substack.com/pub/socialco... - ThreadSky

Brannon has been enemy #1 from the beginning of the Trump nightmare. He and the thug, murderer Putin work harmoniously in the most destructive way.

Well said. I disagree with a lot you've said, but this is just a solid concrete statement. I appreciate it, thank you.

Bill Maher is such a fucken pussy… his victim card cry baby reaction to David today just showed us all more what we already knew… he’s absolutely full of shit. Fuck Bill Maher so much… he can go suck farts from Trumps ass all be likes… we see him for what he is.. over!

Agreed. I’m a Californian and I am SO disappointed with Newsom.

cinnamonalice.bsky.social•58 days ago

There is no conversing with Bannon. It only gives him a platform to do more damage.

mtnrider.bsky.social•58 days ago

Sometimes depending on the opponent an argument is required. I do not fault Newsom or Maher.

jaclyncistaro.bsky.social•57 days ago

Great article! Having conversations with Trump or Bannon won't accomplish anything if facts are ignored. Newsom and Maher should talk to regular Maga voters.

mrj63.bsky.social•58 days ago

Well said. I couldn’t agree more

Bannon’s on ozempic now, must have his eye on a cabinet position.

linda-bres.bsky.social•58 days ago

I hope he also develops an eye for a shower every once and a while.

And let’s not forget, not only did Bill Maher have dinner with Trump, he then invited Bannon onto his show, giving credibility to this conspiracy, theorist, and election denier. And that appearance banned and insisted that Trump would be president for a third term.

How's that mission to have respectful conversations with MAGA going?

👏🙏

This exactly! If you can’t put together a cogent rationale that the majority of people can accept, your position is indefensible. Come back with another proposal. It’s that simple. All this couching is what got us in this mess. Elected officials should be honest brokers. Ethics matter.

dreamweasel.bsky.social•58 days ago

That is an important distinction; thank you.

Maher “breaking bread” (his terminology) with trump rubs me the wrong way — its a social thing.

I don’t dine with people I loathe.

jrdlee.bsky.social•58 days ago

Thanks Joe. I hate pandering for clicks. You’re absolutely right. Complete garbage exercise that validates the psychos
