The Sydney Sweeney bomb opening in 2000 theaters is the wildest thing about this drama. So many business masterminds are losing money betting big on things that only matter to right wing twitter users who will absolutely not spend a dime on anything that doesn’t have a picture of Donald Trump on it

I mean who would have thought that Donald Trump of all people would promote some sort of financing scam that was awful for consumers.
Let's say you take out a $400,000 mortgage loan at 6.25% - and choose a 50-year mortgage instead of 30 years.

In return for saving $283 monthly, you will pay an extra $421,302 in interest over the life of the loan.

Or if you sell at 15 years, will have paid down just $29,000 in equity. Not good.
INGRAHAM: Is a 50 year mortgage really a good idea?

TRUMP: It's not even a big deal. You go from 40 to 50 years. All it means is you pay less per month

the right wing has been phenomenally successful at taking over the media and the government and even did an okay job at boycotting a beer company but they cannot manifest a box office smash to save their lives
there are no fewer than three sydney sweeney posts on the front page of the Free Press, all of which seem to be defending her complete flop of a movie

If you're bleeding internally you just uhh call around and compare health care plans. Make a budget spreadsheet and see what you can afford. Do I have to spell it out for you. I have a ballroom to build

It’s not one of my ten favorite movies of the 21st century, but I don’t think ten movies blew me away in theaters like Drive.

even when the democratic party has leverage and one of the craziest election swings the party intentionally self immolates it’s just so exhausting what is even the point of these people

The thing about Mamdani is that he’s a talented politician but not otherworldly or one in a billion, he’s just a competent guy with popular ideas who ran against an entitled piece of shit and to me it’s a lot more optimistic to imagine 1000 campaigns like his than to view him as a unique phenomenon

my strong suspicion is that dems believe they’ll coast to major gains in the midterms no matter what, and their awful posture right now on all the horrors is less about winning next november and more about what they’re rhetorically committed to do should they win

In a world where the incumbent president bowed to pressure and stepped aside, it doesn’t seem like such a monumental ask to switch minority leaders.

It’s such a fucking scandal that he has no clue what Obamacare even is or how health insurance works
Trump: I want the money to go into an account for people where the people buy their own insurance. They will feel like entrepreneurs. Call it Trumpcare… anything but Obamacare. Obamacare is a disaster just like he was.

Sounds harsh but they routinely run against/scared of their own record, they kneecap anybody who gets popular without the blessing of the establishment and are scared of being in power. I haven't heard shit about a damn Parliamentarian since the GOP got in but that was all I heard w/ the Dems
The reason people think the Democratic Party doesn't actually stand for anything is because it doesn't.
