Narrator voice "they will screw this up once again."

They are too cowardly to even do that. "What will people think? Does this poll well? We need Unity".

I am a high school graduate who works in a factory. Here is what I would have said. "When we have a National Day of Remembrance for the children who get slaughtered IN SCHOOL, I would vote for it"

Nah, they won't do that. It doesn't poll well and the optics are bad. Remember Al Green? Standing up and doing something, and that was *bad* to them.

Dude, you guys aren’t fighting for anyone except AIPAC and oil companies. You’re a pack of cowardly sinecured hacks.

You voted yes on Worship Charlie Kirk Day but won’t endorse Mamdani.

We know you’re not fighting for us.

Those stories were just hot air to you. You just blew smoke up their asses.

I detest the posts about "the fever is breaking", etc. Do they interact with MAGAt people at all? They aren't talking about Trump like they used to, but are shrugging their shoulders at everything going on.

Fair. I moved from Indiana to Kentucky 25 years ago, and I still catch my Midwest coming out.
Welp. Ope.

Fuck Oprah. She is responsible for some of this. The guy on the left in the background KNOWS better, and yet there he is.
He would be nowhere without Oprah.
If anyone thinks I am full of shit, ask YOUR doctor what their opinion of Dr. Oz is.

Exactly. Plus we need to remember in the back of our heads that they can return to their old way of thinking if it suits them.
I am just really distrustful of people *just now* realizing Trump is bad.

They've really leaned into it this week, trying to fake a predicate for martial law.

We are so fucked. Christ I hope someone steps up.

Miller is calling Democratic politicians "terrorists." That's *psychotic*. Why is every elected so blasé about it?

They're basically just trying to lay enough of a foundation to say that they're going to respond to *totally invented* provocation to declare martial law.

Like, if someone doesn't stop them soon they're going to urge conservatives to murder their democratic neighbors & they probably have addresses.

It should really trouble more people that the entire administration has literally just made up an organization that doesn't actually exist, they're blaming it for terrorism that isn't taking place even a little bit, and they're claiming cities are on fire that absolutely are not.

It's terrifying.

We've all heard that there is no free lunch.

Well, guess what?

There is no free 747 either.

The bad thing is, they don't even tell you to call your Representatives anymore. All of us are collectively fucked and the powers that be are shrugging their shoulders
