Now is the time to pay attention.

Hucklebee is a moron conman, which is why he sucks up to another. He has no intellectual gravitas and certainly no moral standing. One sees where Sarah Sanders got her lack of humanity from. The language is quite clear, nobody can get elected more than twice. The Supremes would reject a 3rd term either 9-0 or 8-1.

Octopus thinks that if he labels a guy antifa he should have the right to run him over with his truck, which doesn’t mean he’s a pathetic little wheeny man, by the way. Nor a dishonest babyman who’s afraid of reality.

Yeah, I really like how conservatives want to scream about how Hunter Biden’s “corruption” so upsets Trump that he made Ivanka quit her job at the White House------oh. Wait.

Well, I suppose he will fire her once he puts the Russians back on their plane after he hosted that nifty little affair in the Oval Office for Sergei Lavrov----after booting out American press.

You are a liar. And I actually live in reality.

What is the point of you?

Cite?

What’s the point of anything? We are here and then we are not. That’s true for everything.

I don’t have a cite. :frowning:
You know the more I think about it… maybe I don’t live in reality. :eek:

The first step to recovery is admitting that you have a problem and asking for help.

Donald Trump is president, Dennis Rodman is an unofficial ambassador, Tesla has a truck, and there is a baby Yoda. Does this feel like reality or a hallucinogenic trip?

Even if its a collective hallucination or if we’re all in a computer simulation, it doesn’t really matter. We still have to deal with it and make the best of it. We still have to get up every day and go to work and go about the business of self-government. Some of us are taking that seriously, and some of us are just posting memes for the luls and for the liberal tears. I choose to be one of the serious ones.

This assumes that our democratic institutions survive an additional 4 years of a president who has been given carte blanche the senators of the 15 least populous states to do whatever he pleases with the power of the federal government. If we reach the point where Trump is generally accepted as a candidate for his third term, I assume we will have reached the point where the support of the people no longer matters. (Fortunately, I still have faith that we won’t actually reach that point).

More to the point will be whether after another 4 years of the Super Size me diet he will be in any condition to get out of bed much less run for president.

I’m serious as well! :slight_smile:

That’s why I advocate respect of fundamental human freedoms as partially codified in documents such as the US constitution. That’s why I strongly reject the concepts of mob rule and statism. That’s why I advocate tolerance of divergent opinions.

Unfortunately, that’s labeled hate speech and is a minority opinion nowadays. Sometimes, I do think it’d be a good idea to let the modern illiberal left have it’s way but it’s not as if people learn from the past. So that would be a lot of harm that would not serve as any illustration for the future.

You can’t support the modern GOP and the constitution at the same time. They are wiping their asses with it.

It’s insanity to worry about some possible harm in the future as a reason to support the actual, real harm that is happening to our country right now, every single day. It would be like having a serial killer in your house, then the doorbell rings, but you are afraid of who it may be because it could be a killer.

I don’t wanna go on a rant here, but America’s foreign policy makes about as much sense as Beowulf having sex with Robert Fulton at the first Battle of Antietam. I mean when a neo-conservative defenstrates it’s like Raskolnikov filibuster deoxymonohydroxinate.

I give that rant 2 Millers!

Is the modern GOP limiting what people can say or publish?

I do have problems with a lot of the modern GOP. Unfortunately, the cognitive dissonance afflicted illiberal left has me more scared. You cannot endorse a movement that advocates the abolition of freedom of speech, freedom of the press, or freedom of assembly in order to deplatform and silence their political opponents.

The purity of thought demanded by the nutty left is leading to the rise of the populist right. I’m not a fan of the populist right at all. However, I am not at all surprised to see their ascendancy.

Crude but effective Orwellian thought and speech control… it’s bad and inexcusable in internet space it’s terrifying in real space.

Remember that conversation about you not living in reality? Yeah, this is what I’m talking about.

None of this is reality based. Fox news is not reality. They tell you what you want to hear. Doesn’t make it true.

Oh FUCK no!

The fat nasty lying pussy grabbing draft dodging conman traitor fuck wasn’t supposed to win LAST TIME, either.

Trump would never succeed if he tried to become a lifetime President. He’d be blocking the ambitions of every other right winger who wants to be President. They wouldn’t settle for impeaching him; they’d have him killed.

Trump’s incompetent. He could never hang on to power by his own abilities. The only reason he stays in power is because he’s part of a legal institution that’s bigger than he is. If he ever manages to throw off the legal authority that protects him, he’ll be quickly overthrown by somebody more capable.

Trump may look at dictators and envy them. But those dictators look back at Trump and know that he could never do what they’ve done. They don’t see Trump as a peer; they see him as the kind of person they stepped on during their own rise to power.
