It goes back to tricky dick in the 70s. Reagan used it to his full advantage and set the republican party on the course that led us to trump. Granted this is mostly my opinion so do with it what you will.
The GOP’s Southern Strategy personified. They lack critical thinking skills. Jesus Christ has nothing to do with their faith because they worship only Cheeto Jeezus. It’s not really Christianity but nationalistic evangelicalism. They’re members of a mindless cult.
It's a fine tuned plan broadcast on Fox and right wing radio, and they just follow it to the letter, while simultaneously calling everyone on the left "sheep". So, yeah, spot on.
I just read up on Eichorn. When they dig a little deeper, they’re gonna find more shit than just solicitation of a minor.
During a call from jail, Eichorn asked his wife - who just filed for divorce from him - to retrieve a laptop. He also lied about having a firearm in the apartment he stayed in during legislative sessions. Feds also retrieved a factory reset iPhone 6. Sounds like he’s got more stuff to hide. Feds have all of it.
Also assuming when everything is done this pervert will get a presidential pardon… y’know, because he kissed the ring.
And he tried passing legislation to write TDS off as a “mental illness” … Bizzaro world.
That bill is full gestapo. First RFK pushes his proposal to pack mentally ill people off to slave labor camps “wellness farms”, then this pedophile pushes a bill to classify anyone opposed to republican regime as mentally ill.
No, she's right. If Harris and Biden had run a successful campaign, then we would have someone competent at the wheel, and the stock market wouldn't be plummeting!
(I don't know if I should mark this as sarcasm or not, but I'm not actually blaming them, obviously)
I just don't even understand how anybody could even try to blame the former president and vice president for changes that were implemented long after they left office
Fuck that piece of shit. My Dad was super cool when I was kid, then he started listening to Rush Limbaugh when I was in elementary and he would drive two hours every weekend to get my brother and I, listening to Rush the entire time. He went from voting for Obama in 2008 to being the biggest Fox News Trumper you could think of. It sucks bc I know he’s a good person, but he’s become way too ignorant and stupid to see how fucked the GOP is.
Obama being elected broke their brains, Mitch McConnell said he would focus the entirety of his career to block everything the Obama admin tried to pass. Then the fucker has the gall to say that Obama being elected made up for slavery and then refused to prevent a fascist to run for office, this entire shitshow was brought to us by many before Mitch but he owns all of what's happening.
There’s a documentary about this phenomenon: “The Brainwashing of My Dad.” It’s free to stream on a few apps, if you’re interested. I thought it was enlightening, I didn’t realize that anger could be addictive, and that’s part of why these radio shows became so popular.
Sadly, my dad has gone through a similar change. He was never a liberal, as far as I know, but he seemed pretty moderate and rarely talked about politics. Now, he adores trump and politics is a huge part of his entertainment and personality. It makes it hard to even converse with him, because it always comes back to politics.
I wouldn’t squander their numbers like that. After all, the 1984 election map is redder than red. That was also after Reagan started doing some insane pro-rich stuff.
That’s what I think too. Whenever I wonder, how did it get so bad with my parents? I remember how awful they were when Barack Obama was president. It’s a character flaw.
Doesn't matter. All their friends tell them all this stuff. My father was a Dem voter his whole life, then moved to Arkansas permanently about 23 years ago I think. He doesn't watch Fox or OAN, he gets this stuff from his community and his facebook. 85 year old Irishman and genuine hippy who lived in Asia for decades. A white man who adopted a kid of a different ethnicity (me), married a Mexican woman... switched and voted Trump three times.
Unlike most of the elderly Trumpers, he is still with it mentally. No sign of cognitive decline. Just a terrible ability to navigate truth from fiction online and the very human nature of believing what friends talk about. And where he lives, it is what Everyone says and speaks of as truth. When I talk to him and tell him things, he thinks I sound like a crazy person spouting conspiracy theories.
My coworker is just like this. Every bad thing Trump does he blames on the democrats. Pretty sure if he came home and found his family dead and Trump fucking his dead wife he would still blame Biden and do what ever Trump asked. It’s funny they say Democrats are sheep and the issue but they are the ones who blindly follow a cheesy puff.
"What do you think it would take to prove to flat earthers that the earth is flat and what would it take to prove to you that Trump messed up? What is your line where you admit it?"
bla bla
"Ok, so since there's no amount of evidence that can change your mind, that means you're dumb and I don't want to hear what dumb people say. Please stop embarrassing yourself by talking because I'm ashamed for you."
You have to keep telling them that their attitude is shameful and embarrassing.
Because Biden is a criminal genius. Laying traps years in advance. Trumps 4D chess moves are powerless against them. Don't worry, though. If Musk can just cut social security, Trump will have the power he needs to achieve his final form.
Hearing my family blame Clinton through the Bush years but then immediately pivot to Obama as soon as he was elected did a lot to help me see Republicans were full of shit right as I could vote and it's never changed.
It’s fascinating to me the ones who were loyal Bushies and hardline pro-Iraq invasion, then became extremely devoted Trumpers in the blink of an eye—when Trump thinks Bush was a horrible president and the Iraq war was a huge mistake. How can one person believe that both those people are always 100% right about everything?
At least for my family, it seemed to be a lot of just wanting someone/something to follow. The religious trappings of Republicans were more important than the actual politics, so their views just morphed to whatever the party's views were. If they ever had to admit something like being wrong about Iraq (unlikely), they would probably just say no one knew it was a bad idea or something like that.
Yeah, they tell me my whole childhood “you’ll get more conservative as you age” and every year I slide further and further to the left.
They forget that “as you age” actually means “as you accumulate more wealth” but I’m 30 with no car, no house, no assets or anything else. Just me and that degree they demanded I have and now call me a “brainwashed liberal radical leftist” for 🤦🏼♀️
My goal is be as left wing radical liberal socialist ..whatever other buzz word they wanna use…as possible for the foreseeable future. Legalize cannabis!! Decriminalize all drugs! Free Luigi! Free Palestine!! Love is love!! Black lives matter ✊🏿 ✊🏻And respect my trans homies or your pronouns will be was/were 💕
All my trans homies are just normal people living life, they don't hide under my bed to scare me like the boogey man nor do they dominate sports, I want a refund on the lies I was fed pls. This is true story i actually am friends with real trans people, they are umm just like anyone else
Exactly! They’re worried about the wrong 1%.
I work with trans folks (mental health) both professionally and as clients, and I’m even dating a gender nonconformist 😲
And huuhhhh, they’re just people who want to survive like everyone else. I feel more uncomfortable around most straight cis white conservative men than I ever have a trans human.
Yeah they love and support me, something I don't even get from my MAGA family I've known my whole life, my super Christian homeschool aunt blocked me on facebook because i questioned why she was donating money to a billionaire for his election denying cases. I wasn't even a dick. I did quit fb tho. And don't get me started on my MAGA Christian parents who hate everyone who isn't like them
She wouldn't answer truthfully, but it would be interesting to ask her: "If the market was WAY up since Trumps inauguration, would you be praising Biden and Harris right now for setting up a great economy?"
Pretty sure he is, crash the economy so him and all the other rich parasites can buy up everything at a low price and control even more aspects of society.
When Biden is in office everything is his fault. When Trump is in office everything is the Democrats fault. Come on these are Republican rules 101. You learn it right after you learn how to tie your shoes.
Your mom is a financial analyst, for sure. A good analyst will blame the former president for everything while not actually knowing shit about anything.
Looks like these MAGA cultists are terminally stupid and unfixable. They have an answer for every direct issue created by Trump not being his fault. It’s pretty depressing to witness it.
These people truly are an infection in our country. An infection of dangerous stupidity. You can’t reason with them, they can’t think for themselves, and they still have the right to vote.
Truly disgusting that Republicans have taken advantage of idiots like this. They know full well their base is the stupid folk and that’s how they want it.
They’re all parrot. My MIL literally parroted that whole thing about how liberal women are angry cat ladies or some bs to me bc I was having surgery to remove my tubes and endometriosis after suffering for a decade…
Thoughtless ignorant trump loving psychos!!! This is what happens when you get millions of blind faith worshippers believing in the antichrist, or a Russian asset rapist cocksucker!!! He’s coming for your social security next idiots.
Beep boop bop boop beep, regurgitate what Fox News says. Push the narrative. Biden is unfit to run this country, but secretly set it up to fail under our lord. Beep boop bob beep beep.
Back in the day I memorized a fake name with a fake address and fake back story in case of cops or sticky situations. I practiced it often and sometimes would confuse it with my own information ,depending on the situation. It just flowed naturally and Id say it without even thinking if I knew I didn’t want to tell the truth or use my own name. Corey Lahey. She said “JoeBiden and KamalaHarris” the same way. It’s from years of practice and repetition.
Hahahahabaha this has nothing to do with sleepy joe... you can't turn around now and say he did something when you preached he did nothing his whole 4 years lol... now it's convenient to blame him for everything.
My coworker blames Bill Clinton for everything. She says everything since he had sex in the White House, our country became lost. I'm not even joking she blamed egg prices on Clinton.... like dear God move on and open your eyes.
So things were good while Biden was president, but he somehow made things crash months after he left? This is ignoring the numerous things that Krasnov is doing to drive shit downward. It hurts my brain trying to understand how people can be this delusional and stupid.
Trump wasn't lying when he said he could kill someone and not get blamed for it. Hell, he was convicted on 34 counts and last time I checked, he hasn't paid a cent in restitution or served jail time
Our Roth IRA was at $28,000 when Joe Biden left office. Now it is at $23,000. We have been adding $500 a month to it so that is a $6500 loss in just over 2 months. I asked my wife if we could just stop adding to the Roth IRA for a while and put that money towards our mortgage instead. She agreed. I’m not sure if this is the right decision as I’m not a financial guru but it seems to make more sense to pay off the hizzouse instead of watching it all go bye bye. When the market starts going up then we can switch back.
You see, the Trump we see now isn't actually Trump. He is currently possessed by Biden from the past. When Biden slept during his years in office, his mind time traveled using magic to temporarily expel his soul to travel to the present and took over Trump's mind to force Trump do what he is currently doing now. The real Trump (Trump's mind) got pushed out of his body. Trump saw this coming and split fragments of his mind and placed them inside Musk and the DOGE workers, past and present. Only by dismantling Social Security and the like would expel Biden out of Trump's body and Trump will be returned to his body free of Biden's possession.
NOTE: The above paragraph is a joke and is not meant to be taken seriously
So what do folks like this say when you find some video or social media post of Trump after the election, bragging about how the stock market was surging due to him being elected. How is it that Biden and Kamala have caused PTSD (post-traumatic-stock-disorder)?
Here’s where her echo chamber goes “yep see just like I told you, etc., etc.” because if they hear it among the like-minded people they feel it has to speak for the whole country.
