The next No Kings rally should be called the Love America Rally. Shove the patriotism in the right’s face.
Yet you know it will be their defense.
8. And don’t tell me that the system is stacked against them! I am worth hundreds of millions after my father gave me only $10 million to get started! If I can do it, then Willy the shoeshine boy can too. He just needs to save 20% of his earnings and put it into NVIDIA stock and watch it grow! 5/5
7. They’re stupid. Anybody with any brains would have figured out how to get rich.

4. Their value system is all wrong. Why would anybody buy a bag of chips when they could eat an apple?

5. They’re shirkers. Because they’re so lazy, they basically steal their pay from us by screwing around all the time on the job.

6. They’re dishonest too.

3/5
As they contrast their genius (and inheritance and luck) with the rest of the world, thry firmly believe that…

1. The hard-up just haven’t pulled themselves up by their bootstraps.

2. They’re lazy. They don’t work as hard as we do.

3. They’re morally deficient. They wouldn’t be poor otherwise.
The very rich - and often the moderately rich - justify their callousness toward the poor and working poor, not to mention the middle class, in moralistic terms. I’m sure you’ve come across this many times.

His every victory is a loss.
I think there have been murders done secretly.
Promises kept. All the wrong ones, of course.

They’re pushing poverty and a police state while they build a golden ballroom.
Corporate life is a kind of death. Hated every moment of it.
It’s a shithole country under a dictatorship.
I hope your phone is fully charged!
Isn’t he a hateful hobbit?
Death will stop him, if not the people scrambling to take up the mantle.
Trump isn’t a mere autocrat. He is a dictator. I hope this clears up any confusion.
Not mere autocrats. Dictators.
When Trump dies the conspiracy theories will be many and lurid. There will be calls for mass violence.

No one will give a shit about Vance. Nobody likes him but Thiel.

Vance will be president in name only.
With el Trump’s disorganized behavior in Japan, it’s easy to see that he’s on his last legs—legs that nearly had him on the floor. He looks and acts like he’s had a stroke. He had, at Walter Reed, an MRI and a cognition test, which he evidently. Dementia. They’re waiting for him to die.

Trump’s in Asia. What’s he going to give away?
