Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

To be clear they have "the other guy is shooting moms in the face on national television" and they went with this instead.
they went with "trump bad" in 2024 and we all know how that turned out for them.
Crazy how easy it is to win over voters by focusing on anti-fascism and affordability instead of just "I'm not the other guy"
So easy even a brown muslim socialist in the heart of America could do it
You mean the CIA fake leftist plant? LMBO!
Are you censoring yourself saying ass?
Is that what he's doing? I read it as "limbo", and thought he was making the commentary of "how low can we go?"
I'm not saying I agree with that statement. I'd openly support a socialist president. Just so long as he doesn't diddle kids, or murder americans. That feels like a really low bar, and yet we aren't clearing it.
Yikes

"How can Americans afford this?"
cue The Office theme song
Wow, the show really went downhill since Micheal left....
The other guy is also a known pedophile.
The other guy is also a known rapist.
The other guy is also a known racist.
The other guy is also a known fascist.
We legitimately have the first guy in history that's actually WORSE than literal Hitler. I cannot ever remember anyone saying Hitler was a pedophile. Plus, at least Hitler had a cat.
Omg, I can't believe I'm over here putting Hitler in a good light compared to anyone else.....but here we are.
It reminds me of a thing that was said by Jim Cornette once. If you've never heard of him, Jim Cornette is/was a tv personality in pro wrestling during the 1980s. Not a wrestler, but a manager. The important thing to take away from this is that to say he's a very opinionated person is an understatement.
So, in the 1980s he was working in wrestling in the same organization as a guy named Ole Anderson. He's not important, other than to say in the 1980s Cornette hated the guy.
Then by the 1990s, Cornette is in a different organization working for a guy named Bill Watts. Again, he's not important other than to say that EVERYBODY hates Bill Watts.
Flash forward to around 1997, and he's working alongside a guy named Vince Russo. And of anybody in life, he has hated Russo more than anyone on the planet. He's been quoted in modern times as saying that his plan is to live at least 1 day longer than Russo, just so he can piss on his grave before he dies.
So in 1998 when he briefly met up with Ole Anderson, the guy who he used to hate the most in the 1980s, he said this to Ole:
"There was a time I thought you were worst person walking this planet. Just an absolute scum and absolutely miserable to be around. I actually have a list of people I hate the most. You used to be number one on that list. Well then I met some of these other jackasses, and you've moved down the list, simply by not doing anything differently. I just now have the displeasure of meeting everybody else."
And thats the quote that modern times reminds me of. Hitler has moved down the list simply by not doing anything different just because we now have the displeasure of knowing Trump.
Look into Geli Raubal's suicide. There's a strong chance he diddled his half-niece when she was underage.
The "truth" is "poor mom mislead by left hate speech went rogue and an innocent good guy was forced to defend himself". At least in the MAGA world.
Moms being murdered won't convert a single MAGA, they'll cheer it on as long as they are told this mom was aedomestic terrorist.
Affordability affects even the most brainrot MAGA supporter personally.
