Oh my god I will vote, I will vote for Donald Trump

“White hat” pedophile

• Nearly half of Americans say they are living paycheck to paycheck, as inflation has continued to outpace wage growth over the past three years

• Half of Americans are covered by health care from their employer

• American household debt has hit another record high, with more people carrying credit card debt than people with a mortgage

These are massive systemic problems, some designed with the very intent of keeping the necessary labor action from taking place.

Does no one understand satire here?

Of course not, that would give the wrong people a win. Maybe they’ll create some bullshit charges like Kilmar Abrego Garcia, maybe they won’t even bother. I mean, they’re trying to jump start WWIII over here, and in two weeks they’ll tank Wall St again. How good is the average American’s attention span?

Maybe it’s time for the Senate to start forming a Grand Army of the Republic?

American nativism and the evolving definition of “white” in America.

Court records show the Federal Bureau of Investigation worked with the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP), Canada, to execute a search warrant at Cottle’s residence

Bad Canada. Stop helping those who threaten you.

I wouldn’t minimize the comparability when there are such blatant examples of Trump utilizing Nazi propaganda like the Big Lie and the demonization of an out-group, like the Nazi’s antisemitic populism, to gain power.

Prior the Reichstag fire, the Nazi’s electoral high point was 37% in 1932 (or 31% of Germans at 82% turnout), compared with Trump at 49.8% last year (or 31.8% of Americans at 64% turnout). The point being that you don’t need a significant buy-in from the people to elevate leaders with dictatorial motives. You simply need a triggering event which they can use to justify their consolidation of power permanently.

Also, if the desire is to avoid authoritarian leadership, I’m not sure military coup is the play. I know the American Armed Forces swear an oath to uphold the Constitution, but it seems that would get real tricky once you’ve overthrown the Commander in Chief, in defiance of the Constitutionally mandated chain of command.

One paved the way for the other.

They didn’t start out with extermination on day one. Before that they failed an attempted coup, stripped Jews of their rights, forced the emigration and deportation of Jews, and had to build up the capacity of the future death camps.

Their point is to recognize the rise of fascist authoritarianism before we’ve reached the holocaust stage.

Fuck this guy. He’s always been party above country, too late to change his tune now. If he’d had any integrity at all, he wouldn’t have voted to acquit Trump while simultaneously saying he was guilty.

Don’t forget clever names for bills that will die in committee.

Time for a new opposition party, ffs.

That fucking watermark…

Can we please resurrect FDR, we need a newer deal.

The etymology section of your link suggests different:

The demographer, anthropologist, and historian Alfred Sauvy, in an article published in the French magazine L’Observateur, August 14, 1952, coined the term third world (tiers monde), referring to countries that were playing a small role in international trade and business. His usage was a reference to the Third Estate, the commoners of France who, before and during the French Revolution, opposed the clergy and nobles, who composed the First Estate and Second Estate, respectively (hence the use of the older form tiers rather than the modern troisième for “third”). Sauvy wrote, “This third world ignored, exploited, despised like the third estate also wants to be something.”

But you’re right in that the term began to be used far more widely during the Cold War for political alignment.

Her entire message was “I’m Biden, for a new generation”. “I can’t think of single thing I’d do differently”, other than put a republican in her cabinet. And with as much time as she spent with her, it was probably going to be a Cheney, cause they’ve always been so popular with the American electorate…

Biden was nearly net negative 20 favorability when he dropped out, with almost two-thirds of Americans feeling the country was on the wrong track. Incumbents do not win with those numbers, especially ones who can’t put together coherent sentences after 8pm.

Sen. Kyrsten Sinema censured by Arizona Democratic Party executive board over filibuster vote

Kyrsten Sinema leaves Democratic Party, adding drama to tight Senate margin

Manchin not backing Dems’ $2T bill, potentially dooming it

Sen. Joe Manchin leaves the Democratic Party and registers as an independent

And more recently… Manchin, Sinema block Democratic control of NLRB

Just like what Democratic party leadership wanted…

Ah yes, the Senate, with a 53 seat Republican majority will surely keep Trump in line this time. Insert Susan Collins shocked Pikachu face.

Lost the Senate and “maintaining the House balance” is a funny way to say “lost the House, again”.

Just take your fucking licks Democrats and learn from it, rather than trying to reframe losing all branches of the Federal government as some sort of secret strategic long-term winning plan.
