Elect your pastor. Maybe it will be better...
Haha yeah. Sleazebags like Trump and Clinton or a pastor are our only options.
AOC, Swallwell, Gov Moore, Massie, etc are on your bench. You tell us.
If you have others on your bench, let's hear about them.
On my bench lol
Save your finger muscles the effort and keep your mindless team politics posts to yourself. I'm not stupid enough to believe in them.
I still believe in the Constitution. I despise leftists because they're historically the quickest to authoritarianism. I'm not a huge fan of extreme right either. I'm not entirely sure what we are seeing now, but it blows my mind that f16 has abandoned reason and conservative principles for it.
These Trump clowns will defend anything and attack anyone. I think they fall in two camps: 1. Pure Trump love and 2. Those fearful of leftism and who will swallow any level of corruption to defeat it.
I think it's much simpler than that. Most garden variety middle class conservatives got sick and tired of being ridiculed for 40 years by the liberals.
Liberals by and large were a little more educated, a little more upwardly mobile, and frankly a little faster & funnier. They embraced snark & sarcasm much quicker and with much more success. And to their detriment and ultimate downfall, their condescension & arrogance became a feature rather than a bug.
Then, Trump came along and said, "You know what? These same knuckleheads have been making fun of me too. I'm mad as hell and I'm not gonna take it anymore." (Pardon the cliche)
So he made it ok to punch back. He made it ok to be a jerk. He made it ok to be crass & vulgar. He made it ok to tell them out loud he hates them.
That's gotta be a heck of a release for tens of millions of people who felt angry, bitter and marginalized but didn't feel comfortable saying it.
I get it. It breaks my heart because I never knew so many people were that angry. And some of the things that make them that angry don't make any sense to me, but I get it.
