Trump has an easy tell for when he's lying: His lips are moving.

I love that these podcast chuds are like, I can't believe he lied!
He lies more than any president ever but ignoring that, everyone calls politicians liars ... why they think he's an exception bewilders me.
You mean Operation Epstein Fury?
Is he already done with Venezuela?
What's wild to me is how this exact same thing occurs with every presidency, and has for 40 years, and almost no one will vote Green or Libertarian.
You all seem to know you're being lied to and accept it, provided you like the external packaging.
What new wars with direct US involvement started under Biden? What new wars happened under Obama, or Clinton? Or any Democrat that started a war in a foreign nation in the last 50 years. I'm not talking selling surplus outdated weapons to another nation, I'm talking boots on the ground, enlisted military going into another nation and fighting in direct conflict.
Every single time it's been a Republican dragging us into a forever war with no clear objective, and a Democrat that cleans up the mess and finishes the job.
I'm not saying that the dems are a good political party, they're still a neoliberal organization that cowtows to corporate interests, and they're spinless when it comes to wielding power to benefit the rest of the population and standing up to Republicans but they're not the same thing.
Besides the only "viable" candidate for the Green Party is literally photographed rubbing elbows with Russian Oligarchs and Putin and Libertarians unironically want to remove the age of consent so they can have their child brides.
But those that would vote for the 3rd party are those that are voting against red and we don't want to split our vote as those that vote red wont change from their party. It's damned if you do and damned if you don't. If we can break up the red vote we can try to vote another party.
Exactly, preaching to anyone ever remotely left of the democrats to vote 3rd party is just begging the only tenuous coalition of progressives to split the voter base and hand the conservatives power for decades to come.
We should be in the comment sections of conservative spaces trying to amplify whatever cracks have formed between segments of their voterbase.
Like throwing a rock in a river and expecting it to stop water flow. 3rd party just isn't the answer right now. Only hope currently is MAGA splits from OG Republicans, but I don't see that happening. They love party loyalty.
Third party could be a great answer, but not till we completely overhaul our voting system. And that's not gonna happen before some authoritarian heads roll.
