Licking my wounds since 1962 and they still don’t taste like chocolate chip cookies.

Left/Center who loathes MAGA. We don’t deserve dogs.
We are all just living in a snow globe in little Donnie Trump’s bedroom.

My general belief is that no politician cares about me, or would care about me if I met with them and told them my life story. But if you push me, and say who is the one who might, it's an easy question, and thankfully he's my President.

Went to sleep in my Rolling Stones shirt, woke up with Sticky Fingers before they made me run.
Went to sleep in my Beatles shirt, woke up, fell out of bed, dragged a comb across my head
Slept in my AC/DC t-shirt and woke up Thunderstruck

Nikki Haley crying that the Dems planted the questioner last night. So what if true. So what. Haley gave the answer she gave. There was no forced response. This is just deflection now.

When the truck with dangling balls crowd scares you then what are you going to do when President Xi saber rattles?

#NikkiHaley
The main GOP contender is openly using Nazi rhetoric and one of the main runners up can't denounce slavery for fear of pissing off the base and it's getting a little difficult to figure out where the satirical exaggeration is going to fit in this next year

Fascism in many forms have existed forever. If humans weren’t so enamored of cruelty towards other humans we wouldn’t need walls, borders, weapons, religions as protection.
A few months back I was in a hospital waiting room. Three magas - they didn’t know each other before this - were griping. One eventually said “We have to start killing people, it’s the only way they’ll listen to us” and the others heartily agreed. Lots of people are true believer fascist.
Certainly some people support Trump despite this, but many support him because of it. Plenty of Americans are fascist lunatics who would kill you for a nickel.

Thinking, listening, learning. It’s okay to not be an internet instant intellectual.
It’s actually ok not to speak on matters you don’t have a lot of knowledge about.

It’s actually… a sign of humility and wisdom to do that.

And as a bonus, you don’t inadvertently show your ass in public!

This is the truth. It’s also why I was against Santos being expelled from congress before the report came out.
I'm not sure we want the dam breaking on judges deciding on whether unconvicted and otherwise eligible electoral candidates can be on ballots, tbh

This amazing and the comments are worth reading as well.

Consecutive sentences then ship to Brazil.
Breaking News: The House Ethics Committee found “substantial evidence” that Representative George Santos of New York violated federal law, ending a nearly nine-month investigation.
House Ethics Committee Finds Evidence George Santos Broke Federal Law
The findings, which were referred to prosecutors, are likely to prompt another attempt to expel the embattled congressman from the House.

We are literally going to re-elect Trump, destroy democracy, and set up concentration camps for immigrants because no one had the guts to stand up and say “Hey 3% unemployment is pretty darn good and the people constantly rending their garments over it are mostly grifters looking for doomer RTs”
