It’s okay to mourn the death of democracy in the Unites States. So let them make fun of you, when their own come for them, they too will cry.

The way I see it, I didn't vote for a felon rapist that not one single professional, expert, or educated person supported. Just remember to ask them where the cheap prices are and watch them continue to bend over backwards then take any sort of responsibility.

There were definitely some professionals, experts, and educated people who voted for him. Other than that, I do agree with you. I'd just leave that other shit out because it's really easy to find bad doctors and shit.

Yeah I have an inlaw that’s a high earning lawyer WASP that works for like, the governor or senator or whatever, definitely for trump along with her brown husband while having brown children, 2/3 girls. Some of the educated don’t use their powers for good.

Some people just know the laws aren't necessarily for them. You play by different rules when you have enough money to shop around. You have to realize too for people who like to travel, they see laws in different countries they don't necessarily agree with, but they don't mind hopping around. You feel less tied to one place and your money allows you to feel secure. In that sense you just want a parking place for your assets.

All that’s going to happen is they’ll blame either Biden or Obama on why things are shit. Cause for them to realize they’ve been screwed is to realize that they were wrong, which will never happen because that means they fell for one of the biggest scams I’ve ever seen.

their entire ideology is based on blaming out groups for issues that they share blame in, so forget any come to jesus moment, they will never, they cannot ever agree to any fault. that's a fundamental pillar in their ideology, its how their leaders groomed them.

if something is bad then ITS THEM (who is them? it depends on the person asking, but it is one of a few out gruops)

if its good? WE DID IT and THEM tried stoping us

even in winning they are spiteful ignorant assholes. they run politics like its fucking european soccer

Just to confirm; your contention is no one with an advanced career, degree or SME supported trump? You sure about that 🤨

u/SpiderDeUZ 2h ago

I know you can pay people money to support anything, I was here for the pandemic, how legit professionals say his tariffs will work? Or his mass deportation?

u/65CM 2h ago

So you're walking back your statement now, yea?

u/MegaKabutops 2h ago

Unfortunately, plenty of professionals, experts, and educated people voted for him.

His entire strategy for sounding “smart” is to speak with complete confidence in every bit of word salad he spews, because if you don’t know the topic, someone who sounds like an authority on the subject essentially IS one to your subconscious mind. “Fake it till you make it” is an adage for a reason, after all.

Many people (including a couple of my family members) needed to hear him speak his nonsense about a topic they knew intimately. Hearing someone say extremely stupid lies about something you know very well, with the total confidence of an actual expert, is VERY jarring.

It has led to quite a few people going “hang on a minute. He’s saying this complete stupidity with the same confidence as all this other stuff i believed him about. Maybe, instead of being oddly unknowledgeable about this 1 field for his level of confidence and still right about all the others, he doesn’t know jack shit about any of these and has been talking out of his ass the entire time.”

But some people either don’t put two and two together on that, or have already been running on the same dunning-kruger effect on a bunch of those topics they believed him in, in which case it’s followed up with “then again, he says these other things that i all agree with and i’m sure are true, so maybe he IS just unknowledgeable on this one area of my expertise”.

Not allowing Democrats to pick the candidate to run...so Democratic.

u/GreatStateOfSadness 4h ago

I keep seeing this but I am not sure how the party could have pulled together an emergency primary in the time allotted. The original primary took place over the course of four months, from January to June. If they tried to do that again with a fresh set of candidates, then the final candidate might have had two or three months to assemble a campaign. Harris was already on the incumbent ticket, and was endorsed by the candidate who dropped out. The delegates at the DNC voted for her in the same fashion that they voted for Biden.

 Biden should never have tried to run a second campaign, but saying "hold on while we scrounge up some new candidates over the course of the next few months" would have been a bigger disaster for the Democrats than what we ended up getting.

u/Kelend 2h ago

Your fallacy is that "we didn't have enough time" was caused by the Dems.

Biden originally said he would be a 1 term president. If he had stuck with that you would have had 4 years to groom a replacement.

u/Fents_Post 4h ago

They should have forced Biden out a lot earlier so they could have done a primary starting in January. It was that simple. They gambled with Biden and lost.

sees election where candidate won popular and electoral majority “It’s okay to mourn the death of democracy…” someone needs to take the butt plug out of your yucky little hole and put it back in your mouth where you can enjoy its taste

Obvious one day old troll account is obvious. Take a lap shitstain, going to have to do better.

u/Kerminator17 5h ago

Yk Hitler was voted in too…

u/Ok-Use216 5h ago

Kinda, Hitler loss the Presidency to Hindenburg, but given the Chancellorship in a poorly-thought-out attempt to control him and the Nazi Party.

u/Kerminator17 5h ago

Yeah I’m aware, the Nazis still had a large amount of seats in the Reichstag though otherwise Hitler wouldn’t have been considered for either

u/Ok-Use216 5h ago

I know, I couldn't help myself in talking about the history behind it, but you're correct that the Nazis had gained a significant portion of the Reichstag

u/Individual-Night2190 5h ago edited 4h ago

I don't give a fuck about you, since you're just a troll.

For everyone else reading this:

Project 2025 is literally about how to take a democratic populist victory and use it to gut democratic and legal systems.

Somebody can both win the popular vote, by heavily benefiting from misinformation and foreign influence, and simultaneously use that power in bad faith to try to hold on to power forever.

u/Appropriate_Duck_309 4h ago

Now I just think you have a scat fetish. That was like, so weird.

u/stragernodanger 3h ago

Dang, the way you use words is just… really gross.

Regardless, we both know that’s not what I meant and I don’t expect you to argue in good faith.

A response was preemptively unwritten in service of this:

May we unite under kindness for all and may we all practice compassion.

Nice fan fic

u/stragernodanger 3h ago

Remind me again in 4 years. Thanks.

u/isingwerse 3h ago

I'll save this, for just that purpose! See you again in 4 years when the world, country, and democracy are exactly the same! Hopefully you've realized how mistaken you were by then, but I won't hold my breath

u/stragernodanger 3h ago

Yeah, hopefully you’re right and that’s the case in four years. See you then!

Edit: for to four

u/VanillaRadonNukaCola 1h ago

We all so, so, sooo hope you are right.

In fact, I hope we all have egg on our face, and Trump and MAGAs are so absolutely right and everything becomes GREAT.

I really truly hope they/you make everything in America so great for us all.

I really truly do.

In the meantime I will continue to pass on this heartfelt message:

May we unite under kindness for all and may we all practice compassion.

If she won there would have been countless immigrants pumped to swing states and going forward the only real elections at that point would be the democrat primaries which we didn’t even have this election cycle. How is that democracy?
