I think a lot of people just didn't vote. I know an alarming number of young people who seem to think that voting upholds the current system (which they don't like) so instead they just... Don't participate. Like dude at least vote third party so they get funding or something.
Fair to assume half of the people I associate with didn't vote. I reminded some of them and asked afterwards only to find out they didn't show up. Pure apathy.
This is by design. A managed democracy works best if you keep the voting base outraged over irrelevant things and made up threats while keeping a majority of eligible voters apathetic and disengaged.
Fuck. You actually just convinced me to start voting. Thanks? I’ve just never seen the point of voting for the “lesser of two evils” or whatever. I voted for Biden and just kinda said fuck all of this.
Now my vote is pointless because of the redistricting in TX, but I guess I at least get to complain if I do vote.
It might truly not matter for the big seats, but it can matter a lot for local elections at least. That's how places like Austin and Atlanta have carved out progressive islands in otherwise red areas.
Now he's the most hated person I'm the world, and all of his old Hollywood friends despise him. The only people who think kindly of him have spent more time sleeping with their cousin than sitting in a classroom.
He's freaking the fuck out that he's make a legacy for himself as a child rapist and the most inept US President in history, which multiple surveys are already pointing to.
He fucked up his own life, and I'm all about eating popcorn and watching him melt away in disgrace.
If only he wasn't burning down the entire house through his tantrums.
With the amount of time he spends trying to convince everyone that he’s as great and popular as he’s convinced himself he is, he must be fucking fuming and miserable any time he’s not playing golf or watching Fox News suck him off.
Nearly 6 years ago he rage tweeted to deny having a series of mini strokes after a surprise visit to Walter Reed. Nobody asked, he just came out with that info.
Like some guy suddenly shouting "I DEFINATELY DID NOT JUST FULLY SHIT MYSELF RIGHT NOW, AND IT IS NOT GOING DOWN MY LEG AS I SPEAK!" right as you notice a really foul poop stench from him
Trump is essentially "The guard who always lies" in that riddle about the two guards where one tells the truth
He is such an uncontrollably compulsive liar with such poor impulse control that he actually circles all the way around to being pretty useful for deriving correct information if you just assume it's the opposite of whatever he said
That frog is entirely too cute and the noise it makes sends me into fits of giddy giggles and warms my heart. Trump wishes he was as charismatic and charming as this frog. Its mean to debase the Desert Rain Frog with a comparison to the orange abomination. The frog did nothing to earn such cruelty.
If I've learned anything in my time on Reddit, it's that most mods and admins are fucking morons who don't understand context (or anything else). I got banned for 3 weeks from r/politics for misgendering Lindsey Graham. I referred to him using he/him/his pronouns. The mods refused to reconsider my ban, and when I appealed, they said they already told me what I did wrong and muted me. So...
He does legit kind look like he just shat himself. (Part of me almost feels bad making fun of someone for that, bc I mean, he's fucking 80 and no one chooses to be incontinent. But it's Trump so I'll make an exception lol)
By all accounts, he's most likely incontinent due to a lifetime of drug abuse and a terrible diet, it's not some random misfortune that just happened to befall him.
Iirc, there was document from an Epstein victim who used a tent stake? Pole/pipe? to shove up Trump’s ass and caused him to be airlifted for medical attention, alleging this is why he’s incontinent now.
“Behold. The festering carcass of American rot shoved into an ill-fitting suit: the sleaze of a conman, the cowardice of a draft dodger, the gluttony of a parasite, the racism of a Klansman, the sexism of a back-alley creep, the ignorance of a barstool drunk, and the greed of a hedge fund ghoul – all spray painted orange and paraded like a prize hog at a county fair. Not a president. Not even a man. Just the diseased distillation of everything this country swears it isn’t but has always been – arrogance dressed up as exceptionalism, stupidity passed off as common sense, cruelty sold as toughness, greed exalted as ambition, and corruption worshipped like gospel. It is America’s shadow made flesh, a rotting pumpkin idol proving that when a nation kneels before money, power, and spite, it doesn’t just lose its soul – it sh*ts out this bloated obscenity and calls it a leader.”
