We warned the stupids off doing that way too quick if you ask me.

Oh he thinks SHE is the bad one in the relationship? Anyone want to tell him?

Jesus Christ what’s next week, “build a space ‘LAZER’”???

Fuck renaming it; raze it.

At this point I don’t even care. I’m so sick of having to deal with this because too May regards were so gung ho hurting others only to have them finally see the light when it snagged them I’m going to do the absolute MINIMUM to oppose, which is show up and vote. No cash to candidates, no protests, nothing else - I didn’t break it and I’m tired of having to clean up after the children who did.

Actually, I take that back - I’ll throw $50 to any candidate that swears to inflict this shit on MAGAts if they win. But they really need to make ‘em hurt - any talk of reconciliation and I’ll skip voting for that position altogether, not that I’m even sure it matters at this point.

Anecdotally, people I’ve known who smoke everyday tend to be okay with things they shouldn’t be. The chemical joy seems to make them content with having a kind of shitty life and never actually doing anything.

I believe that’s a feature, not a bug.

Man I’d love to hear what me, a married middle aged white guy in the Midwest who’s always voted Dem (despite it mattering very little where I am) could do to stop this.

Please tell me.

They’re not fine with it happening to THEM. It was only supposed to happen to OTHER PEOPLE.

To my dying day I’ll never understand this - surely he (and all of the others resigning in protest) could do more good staying and gumming up the works as opposed to leaving and having his place filled with a yes-man.

I’m the guy who, against all odds, would get “bad timeline” the first 10 times in a row and that’s a hole I could never dig out of, so no dice.

I hate living in interesting times.

And yet even knowing this in realtime we’re unable to come up with EFFECTIVE opposition.

Call it Reconstruction.

I’m just annoyed that we’re all going to have to go through so much extra pain because of the stupids. And we’d DAMN WELL better prevent them from EVER having a say again after this. I don’t care if you call it anti-democratic, I don’t care if you call it Jim Crow, I don’t care if you try and argue slippery slope - these MAGAts need to be barred from voting ever again, and their particular brand of lying hate speech needs to be outlawed.

My biggest concern with that is that the GOP is ruling like they already know they won’t be held to account in the next election. If the fix is already in we’re better off acting quickly rather than allowing them to continue to consolidate power.

You’ve got the problem right there in your first sentence - Saturday Oct 18. It needs to last weeks/months until the regime is gone.

A single day, where and when they allow (so they can ignore it) does nothing substantive. Prolonged and widespread unrest is the key.

Dems will say “Don’t fight back, they’ll use it as an excuse.” Yet if they’re going to do it anyways might as well go down swinging rather than just roll over.

Because Americans are still too complacent to affect consequences upon people like him.

Someone needs to draw little red hats on the sheep.

Man what countries are publishing the “top aides are pushing to remove Donald Trump” articles - we need more of those!
