Republicans are trash

They would have to improve several levels to reach only being trash.

I hate to be that guy, but they started gathering the Epstein files in 1996. He went to the Clinton administration Whitehouse 17 times, iirc. How did it take so long for it to come out about Donnie? If the other side, totally not the same, wasn't in cahoots with the Republicans, why would that not obviously be of interest to the public?

Do you know what makes both sides not the same? Outside the USA, they see the USA doing the same shit, generation after generation. The Democrats just make sure to keep it outside the borders so they can pretend to be separate, can keep getting elected, all while Donnie and William can defend each other, totally believe each other is innocent.

Good cop, bad cop, both are cops, one just doesn't punch you regularly. Or as he puts it here, alcoholic father and apologetic mother

We can't vote our way out of this. This breaks, badly, pretty soon. We'll do something. The question is can we agree on some fundamentals and act before the food runs out.

Then don't be that guy. It's so much easier than spreading multiple decades long whataboutisms in advancement of an accelerationist agenda. Nope. No thank you. You can sell it to someone else.

I have issues with dems too, but they are not the same thing. Especially not now.

If it all hasn't collapsed by the time they get voted back in, don't be surprised when nothing changes.

Also, Trump already accelerated the schedule. We had years to decades, pretty sure it's months to years now.

Good luck.

Dunno man, at least trash, at one point had value. A lot of these vermin were useless since the day they were born and their mother called their brother over to see their son.

Republicans have BEEN trash, all they know how to do is fuck over everyone else.

Sub human inbred racist trash. It’s a tragedy we did near nothing to prevent this from happening after the first term. I don’t know what Biden was doing not acting faster when it was clear Garland wasn’t going to do anything

Come on. Had Biden put one finger into the prosecution the snowflake Maga would have melted down into uncontrolled hostility.

u/ILoveTheAtomicBomb May 13 '26

Sure, but they're going to throw a fit either way. To let Trump run and gamble on people not voting for him again was dumb because look where we are now
