Why was it ever at 55%. I'm not a big "kids-these-days" guy, but what the fuck? What did he ever do to get 55% approval rating with anyone except Republicans?
I'm sure something will be released that will only have the names of political enemies. The timing will be intentional, and the base will accept it as gospel.
I think the list should be expanded. My neighbor rents and his landlords are a group in Singapore. I think any person or group that owns more than 10 residential properties should see their property taxes increase 25%, and if they own more than 50, it should increase 50% more than 100 would mean more than a 75% increase in property taxes. The revenue that's generated would go to helping first-time home buyers with a down payment .
Unfortunately, this can't be pinned on one guy. Trump is the catalyst, but this is the culmination of decades of work by people way smarter. It doesn't end with one guy's death, it'll take a huge overhaul. Remember, it'll only be bloodless "if the left allows it to be".
You know what else people love? Doom and Gloom. Sounds like a certain poster I know. As for celebrities, we'll get Susanna Hoffs to endorse you since y'all go way back.
Elections only have consequences for liberals. Every bad thing that happens is the result of something Obama did 10 years ago. Sorry, this isn't changing in our lifetime.
My son's friend voted for Trump... much to the heartbreak of his mother. When he told her she said she couldn't finish their conversation and hung up the phone crying. When they spoke again he gave some bullshit excuse about the economy, but the real reason was that he's 18 (so 14 when Jan 6th happened), plays college baseball so he's been surrounded by MAGA bros his whole life. I like to think he still has a chance, but then again I just got through accusing other people of projecting. I hope my hope isn't wasted.
This is what does it for me. I point to Jan 6th as the biggest watershed moment. I mean, how could anybody vote for him after that? AND... there are hundreds of smaller moments that should have doomed the movement forever. It didn't happen, and it didn't happen because these people we want to see as decent and smart just are not. They are either gullible to the point of stupidity or apathetic to the point of being horrible. Any attempt we make at trying to explain their choices is us just hoping that they could be good people because we care about them more than they care about us. Chances are they are going to let us down.
Yeah, it's always show bullshit that actual boils down "I just can't bring myself to vote Democrat". It's so ingrained in how they perceive themselves they cannot change. The irony is, I've changed my voting habits, but I'm the one that plays identity politics.
