Weird how you don't say this about tax cuts and credits. Almost like you're just a weird little bigot

Trump wanted to create an Orban style autocracy & take away everyone’s liberties. But Orban knew u need to be popular when u put that into effect. But in just 20 months Trump failed so hard he’s more unpopular than any midterm Prez in 80 yrs. Chump just doesn’t have the cards. 🤣

I see a ton of people like this seemingly take for granted that expressing support for new transphobic policies is how you persuade the public to be less transphobic, and I've still yet to hear any actual strong case for that whatsoever. It's just treated as obvious gospel.
These people are not interested in strategically persuading the public to support trans people more than they do, they want to do endless snarky dunks on their closest major-party allies for a relative handful of likes on X.com , just absolute loser behavior

This is illustrative of most Republican’s way of thinking: assimilation means voting and being Republican, and if you’re an immigrant that means wanting everyone like you deported

Even if we grant this assertion, we have to assume that those same people understand that the White House is meant to be a nicer and fancier place than the Cheesecake Factory.

Well, you're a fucking awful human being. You say this shit behind a keyboard because if you said it in person, someone would knock all your teeth out of your skull and a jury wouldn't vote to convict.

This is exhausting. Trump's approval rating is in the 30s and the culture moved past him. If you want to stand your ground on "Obama is an evil snob because he finds Cheesecake Factory distasteful" my advice is to write a piece about it in Compact in 2024. – at Ankara, Türkiye

Because, by comparison, Obama was a much better President than Trump, especially on Iran.
I know- that completely discredits the hawk view of the world. And that's... really unfortunate for hawks. History has proven ya wrong, don't know what to tell ya.

He had a lot of gold in his palace. I'm sorry you were born after the Iraq War 2, but when the soldiers went into his palace, the guy had put gold on everything. I know you really, really wanna pull on uno reverse card on Obama and call him racist, but that's just total bullshit

The subtext is also that a male can permanently disempower and dominate a female by raping her because the female's "sin" of being a rape victim is far worse than the actual sin of rape.

When conservatives say you're pretending not to understand their argument, what they mean is you are not equally epistemically loose about whether putting unrelated and fragmentary assertions in close proximity amounts to an argument.

The British press hounding this doctor out of Britain for no sane reason, just because they can. And they’re still at it, from 10,000 miles away.

How does this argument not apply to every single way the government serves people? As if you shouldn't be allowed to vote if your area has crime because you'd therefore only vote for parties that promise to spend resources reducing crime?

the Republican Party's existence renders this entire hypothesis null and void
some of you people don't live in the real world

It's not a historic underperformance given that Dems already have 215 House seats (and that's even without factoring in the impact of GOP gerrymandering). If Dems net 20 seats they'll have the same majority in the House they did after the 2018 election.

At $500k a pop, Obama would have to give a speech every night for the next twelve years to match the $2.2 billion in openly corrupt income Trump pulled in in 2025 alone.
Makes speeches for 500k a pop. Hasn’t eaten dinner that costs less than $250 in years. Has never been in a Cheesecake Factory. Undefeated at condescending to regular folks. Will always be known for a presidency that ushered in the Trump era to begin with.
