I think it's bad that the country is led by people who haven't had a real problem in their entire lives and couldn't get a regular job due to being too weird

Maybe not a real financial problem (yet), but there's the empathy problem, the lying problem, the unbridled greed problem, the corruption problem and in many cases, the malignant narcissist problem.
I think it's strange politicians are largely silent about the largest working sectors of current day America. Seems like there's a lot of talk about factory jobs or coal jobs, while ignoring most working people are in retail.
I get that it’s a strategy, and *maybe* is effective rhetorically, but there is a line of what we use as insults, calling them “losers” or “stupid” which all border on or are just ableism which if it was a sure strategy to beat them maybe but there is a line somewhere of which insults are ok.
Trump administration defies judge's order to provide information about mistakenly deported Maryland man
The Justice Department said it was "impracticable" to provide information about the whereabouts of Kilmar Abrego Garcia, who was wrongfully deported to El Salvador.
I have said something along these lines. Those making decisions haven’t been to a gas station, grocery store or had to stare at their checkbooks making tough decisions after a huge ER copay or an unexpected expense. They are out of touch w/ middle class daily life.
It appears we really are going to have to round up about 10 million people, storm the White House and drag his ass out. Tar and feather would be appropriate, if not worse.
Correct they haven’t had a real problem in their lives and couldn’t get a regular job due to being too wire but the are very good at hate and they hate just about everything that makes this country great! They do like 💰 and have no problem stepping on us to get it!
We should have an Adopt a Representative program where every election cycle elected reps have to work jobs that represent the majority of their constituents. While sleeping on a random constituents couch. For 6 weeks.
money doesn't make one's life problem-free.
different problems. lots of pressure to keep it all
i like being middle class & that we have enough.
and I like that we'd love paying taxes if we have a government run by people like #BernieSanders et al
And unskilled. In the old days I worked for temp agencies till someone hired me. One job was stuffing sausage casings with a bunch of old ladies. I was 19. Then I graduated to healthcare now I’m a whirling dervish bodyworker. Teehee
Conservatives love to try and go after AOC for working as a bartender for a while but honestly working a regular job in the service sector like that should be a prereq for being a politician
Don't forget unqualified for most if not all jobs. If Trump hadn't received money from his Dad, he would be that weird janitor guy at work that lies about all the women he's been with and all the famous people he knows. The only thing is he's not smart enough to be a janitor.
I've read that JFK didn't even know about the Great Depression until he read about it in a book. His family was just so well off that he didn't notice it happen.
I mean not really. Now I’m sitting here wondering why I’m so much worse off than these guys and the only logical conclusion I can come to is that I’m less likeable than Elon fucking musk
How dare you assume I’m not an unforgivable sack of shit? I will have you know that I am both a charlatan and a brute. I have personally been banned from 6 establishments that sell alcoholic libations thank you very much
are you worse off though? do you have their brains with those terrible thoughts and behaviors? look past the position of power and financials and think about what it means to be a human being
I wouldn't worry about terrible thoughts, actions are what matters. I wouldn't be surprised if everyone who uses a subway has thought about pushing the person in front of them. I remember the Family Guy episode where they said everyone is a monster inside.
Wealth infantilizes people. It puts them in a world where literally everyone but them is there to keep them happy, just like an infant. And their emotional patterns regress into infancy where all they know is happiness (self-indulgence), rage (how dare they tell me no?) and crying (Republicanism).
Or are sexual predators, or have felonies, or genuinely disgusting humans that would make the office a very uncomfortable and unpleasant place to work.
...couldn't get a regular job due to being too weird, too drunk, too incompetent, too unqualified, too rapey, too racist, too misogynistic, too xenophobic, too petty, too mean-spirited, too toxic...
Haven’t ever had a real problem that wasn’t of their own making mostly due to their enormous sense of entitlement toward other people’s bodies and other people’s money that they haven’t managed to buy, lie, or intimidate their way out of…
I wonder how many conservatives are actually career politicians, like Canada's own Pierre Poilievre, who to my mind is a quisling like those in the Trump administration and who support him.
Time for a change to Congress, so a portion of members must be middle/lower class members of society that understand, through current experience, what it’s like to be an actual citizen. In fact let’s give as many real Americans, without privilege, authentic real-time representation
The real job/ real-life thing is so obnoxious. I remember years ago Mitch McConnell acting like people were still living off their stimulus checks. Mitch, it was like $600. Dude, it's gone
They never have any.
They didn't know how.
They get off to the worst, unreal garbage.
If a beautiful, naked woman was standing before them, telling them to satisfy her, they'd just drip limp and cry.
“No, new yet extremely old walmart employee, I said STOCK the women’s fashion area not STALK the women’s fashion area. Get it together, you crusty orange perv, yeesh.”
also having learned no true practical skills to make getting a regular job possible — they wouldn’t even know how to punch in for the day, but it would be hilarious to watch them try
i've had knock-down arguments with extremely comfortable and fortunate people over the value of social welfare programs, and most of the time it boils down to "i have read a couple books about the great depression" and they aren't thinking of widespread catastrophe as a real possibility
The government can’t find me a doable work from home job for my disability but Kash Patel can fuck off for three months to do coke in Vegas and an alcoholic can drive us into a ten-front war with nuclear powers, so cool.
AND have no idea about living paycheck to paycheck. Never a thought to how to pay their electric bill. How they are going to put food on the table for their children. They don’t live the way the other 99% do.
I think it’s weird that the immigrants we seem to be afraid of in the USA are those w/ brown skin, who do all the hard work; farming our fields, cleaning dishes, laundry and homes. Meanwhile, the lone, wealthiest white immigrant, Elon, is the one looting our Soc Security and taking our jobs.
Trump's Jan 20 executive order may trigger the Insurrection Act on April 20 (Hitler’s birthday), which allows him to deploy military forces on the street to suppress civil disorder, rebellion or insurrection.

I would much rather have a DEI hire who was the best in her field or one-of-the best rather than the misfits, criminals, and drunks that have been placed in senior level Federal positions and the Supreme Court.
And who have government jobs that, in normal times, would require security clearances. Which none of them would be approved for under any other circumstances.
They would be fired and barred from even retail jobs for their behavior alone. Genuinely the lowest standards are reserved for the highest seats of power
And they have cherry jobs Plus premium lifetime medical care .. Secret Service agents to protect them and cushy offices with lifetime pay, gifts from lobbyists, and to top all that off inside information to get rich on!!! Just a bunch of GRIFTERS!!!
Especially when their weirdness manifests as them acting like teenage edgelords who couldn't get into D&D because every group they tried to join kicked them out for cheating on their dice rolls and creeping on the one girl in the group.
I don’t know about that. I think in the case of Stephen Miller, it’s more possible that his parents dropped him on his head. Then had all kinds of trouble shaping it like a human head.
I couldn’t work with these idiots. I can’t stand stupid and I would absolutely lose my 💩 on them. No joke. I’ve done it before. After all, how much stupid can you listen to and keep quiet? 🤣🤪🤣
It's so pervasive if I didn't let about 90 percent of it slide...I'd sound like a tea kettle for 8 hours a day. I like to focus on the really bat shit ones. They have the best stories.
WELLL... NO, Yur right They are all privileged assholes, who would never survive without their privilege. I theorized TFG would have died within two day of arriving in Vietnam, Or

PSYCHOPATHS Putin’s/Trump’s/Eloon’s MAGAs are a redux of PSYCHOPATH Hitler’s Nazis = psychopaths (1 in 25 persons in the general population) & their psychotic human pets.
History’s confirmed that these stupid, fragile, gaslighting, SADISTIC PERVERTS will grow HORRIFICALLY worse until stopped.
They've had plenty of problems they've had to deal with. Of course, they created those problems themselves. How many companies has Trump bankrupted again?
Cant stop thinking about how none of the rich guys in NYC ever liked Trump and then yesterday he invited a bunch of them to the Oval Office so he could brag about insider trading with them. He has to buy friends.

We really need to start vetting our representatives a whole lot better before electing them.
Maybe we should have vetted them to start with.
He couldn’t deal with the stress of running fries during the lunch rush or making coffee at 5 AM
None of these people really know how to work, but they do know how to fuck us
(I bought this book 10 years ago when my 16 yr old son admired him.. he no longer does for obvious reasons)
Weird is actually good.
Being weird isn't actually bad. Wanting to arrest people for going into a different bathroom than you want is textbook weird, though.
(Seriously, what "regular" employer would hire that ghoul Steven Miller?)
The Justice Department said it was "impracticable" to provide information about the whereabouts of Kilmar Abrego Garcia, who was wrongfully deported to El Salvador.
But leading whom to where?
It's not possible for you to represent someone if you can't understand them.
Let's get moving!
We got to get started!
Viva La Resistance!
Fight tyranny and fascism!
different problems. lots of pressure to keep it all

#Medicare4All #RobustPublicEd & other good stuff
Maybe we should have vetted them to start with
And yes, they need to be able to identify with the people they are representing
If they don’t, we get what we have now
And they do need to have a law degree
Whatever suits them in the moment

Weird-bad: Nazi saluted, fired veterans, and cried about how lonely he is.
Weird-good: Had blue hair, read post-post-modern poetry, and befriended squirrels.
Tyrants are toddlers with power
