Ummm…are you forgetting WWII? No one is coming into the country to help us drag them to the Hegue. Of course there will be compromise. The only other scenario is WWIII.

And Aldi probably had their eggs for a dollar a dozen in '19. My Target has them for $2.59, (and that did come down from pandemic pricing). If you haven’t noticed prices not rising at all over the last 4 years, don’t know what to tell you. But you make a point. I can’t shop at Aldi because my family is too picky. We “have” to have our specific products, so we pay more, especially when inflation spikes. Of course, you are going to notice gas is super expensive when you are driving an F150. Comparatively, gas feels cheap in a Prius. Regardless of how good people have it, people do not want to have to tighten their belts, especially due to no fault of their own. Should they have voted for Trump directly? or indirectly by not voting? That’s another story. We’ll see how expensive the eggs get for you when a majority of the agrarian labor force is deported and the tariffs are levied.

Well, I’m hoping we are a little closer to Franco’s Spain, and things just peeter out once Trump dies.

SCOTUS appointments are the longest lasting consequences of a president being elected, and should be one of the highest considerations. But I guess the price of Doritos and a fucking squirrel won out this year.

Correct. A dozen eggs will never be $1.40 again.

Very well stated. Thank you. There were 16 million people that voted in '20 that sat out and wouldn’t vote for either candidate. He got his base to the polls, but that’s it, and did not grow his support at all. Dems lost 10 million votes that came out for Biden (what the hell did the DNC do with the $1 Billion??!?!). That’s not a real mandate.

Thank you. There was no real professional army when the 2nd Amendment and the Bill of Rights was drafted. The Continental Army was disbanded and the militias were where most of our fighting forces came from in the War for Independence. “You will find a gun behind every blade of grass”. That is why the 2nd Amendment was drafted. “Well regulated” ment trained and prepared to fight.

You know what? We aren’t about change anymore. We are fighting as the conservatives because MAGA is so fucking regressive. They want to take us back to the robber barons of the 1880s.

Compounded now by the echo chambers of Social Media disinformation?

Shouldn’t we be a bit farther on the curve there? Fuck.

Looks like some knee-jerk downvotes, and very little introspection. He demands the student to ask the question again later when she is interviewing to be an intern. Could help to watch that clip too if you haven’t seen the series. https://youtu.be/bGIT4HT8mME?si=f-vkMCsp8xY9_iBN

So why the hell can’t we be confident? Why are we always on the defensive and the backfoot? To take another Sorkin quote to the party, when will we “Let Bartlett be Bartlett?”. Fuck.

And obviously America wanted the cheaper gas I guess. Fuck 'em. So tired of this country.

Not sure why you’re being downvoted. There is a lot of flak on Hispanics and Black men from the left currently.

Yes, the Republicans were the incumbent party. McCain was dragged down by Bush’s fumble during the Financial Crisis.

I agree with Bernie’s rant today, but he still campaigned and voted against the fascist gaining power. Honestly though, the only state Gaza might have effected is Michigan. America does not care about Gaza. The price of Doritos and a fucking squirrel was more important to most voters.

The MAGA Alt-media and then add Fox is super prolific if not mainstream at this point. They’ve gaslighted so effective that both Black males and Hispanics is shifting toward the GOP. The left would need to equal that push.

I blame both the DNC and the chronically apathetic 40-50% of this country that don’t pay attention. Enough blame to go around.

I’m going to coast on my privilege of being a white male for a year and a half, then I will be back for the mid-terms. If America doesn’t care, fuck 'em. I need a break.

I could use someone rubbing my ass in the moonshine right about now…
