I’m pretty sure the ongoing right-wing efforts to destroy democracy and the rule of law while inciting pogroms against LGBT people, teachers, doctors and anyone who disagrees with them including [other members of the Republican party](https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2022/06/23/greitens-hunting-ad-gop-opposition-senate/) is what is “taking down” the country already. But if it makes you happy to blame Biden for everything to distract yourself from reality, you do you. ---

Whaaa whaaa whaaa. They want, they want, they want. Cry-babies want a bottle too. Their wants (and their “you must repeat on Social Media as often as possible” talking points) are as empty as the air in a balloon, the hopes of a failed insurrection, or the lack of thought inside of a Trumpist’s head. Sometimes you just have to let cry-babies cry themselves to sleep. ---

I think my biggest problem with all of this is that you’re (and this should cause you some serious introspection) doing nothing other than what DJT did/does: he constantly refers to things by their ratings, like “The failing New York Times” (or by regurgitating the surprisingly uncompelling ‘FAKE NEWS’) because he is incapable of formulating a substantive argument asserting that what they published was factually incorrect. Though this is the Pit, it’s also still the Dope. Maybe aim a little higher ? ---

Um, no, Democrats approve of him according to your own article you fucking idiot. Republicans hate him but at this point Republicans hate America so no surprise. ---

Yep. Comrade Chealy only pops in occasionally to drop another low-information turd in this thread to cross off his work to-do list. Expect it to drop another pile of shit in this thread in 1-2 months. ---

Looking at this dipshit’s brief history, how has he never been banned for trolling? He has had so many threads locked. He never posts anything of substance. Clearly his MO since the beginning was to post something incendiary and then sit back and not engage. That’s all he ever does. Period. For five years. ---

For those who didn’t bother to machine-translate (or, if they know Russian, translate the posts on their own), CMC’s rendition contained “our country”, while my post had “their country”. ---
