    Not encouraging in the context of implementing harm reduction in the short time we have left. This stupid old fuck is going to smile and nod his way into the grave while wishing us all the best.

      Considering Gen Z boys voted heavily for Shitler, I don’t ever want to hear “OK boomer” again. Gen Z is a generation of infantile incels who refuse to vote for a woman.

        I’m really not sure about that. I would say a lot of us didn’t show up, which is damning. I wouldn’t say a lot of us voted for Trump. The data doesn’t back that.

    Rich dems and republicans, we’re all friends you see. We only differ in the degree of our ideology. We’re not actually opposed. We’ll all be fine. In fact we’re all going to the country club for a round of golf and some champagne later today. You poor suckers are screwed as always, but that’s life.

      Well I guess that if your only opportunity of touching grass is at a country club, then they’re the most out of touch Americans who probably still think video games cause violence and swear Harvard is the best place for their kids/grandkids even though it was historically a puritan group who hated the idea of religious freedom. I guess when it comes to the top we aren’t all that different, so when it comes to the bottom and (the seemingly non-existent) middle classes they want us to hate each other yet come together like they do, but forget to realize that half of these lower class folks will likely commit acts of terror for a free tank of gas and a pack of marlboro reds. Inequality by class is the worst when nobody upper class even tries to see it.

    This spineless fuck will be remembered for 1 thing and 1 thing only. Being the useless cunt that sat back and allowed Trump to walk right back in to the Whitehouse.

        Biden chosing not to prosecute him for his crimes because he didn’t want it to look politically motivated allowed this to happen.

        I’m suggesting he actually prosecuted Trump for his crimes instead of trying to look politically neutral.

        Either the charges of treason/insurection are true, and the corruption of delays until after election needs to be corrected, or Trump should have been in military jail waiting trial back in 2021 are true, or DNC just wants the most loyal zionist to finish the job of genocide.

            When in jail, it is no longer advantageous to corrupt the justice system with delays. You also don’t get the corrupt privilege of facing a judge you appointed, when tried under military system.

            Yes, Before Oct 7, seemed to be a sure thing vs an insurectionist. But after, Trump got all of the money.

        Hate to break it to you, we’re still near the top of the heap.

        Honestly him getting re-elected is the first time in my life where I felt the absolute gravity of “Oh, THIS is white privilege” like theres no fuckin nuance to this. I’m straight, white and middle aged. If I say the right things I’ll probably be fine, not much is going to change for me.

        I cant say the same for a lot of other people.

          I know what you mean, but I think lying under racism is classism, and the trumpers are a party to service rich people. I doubt they will take care of their “base”. Did Trump do anything for the impoverished whites last time? I dont remember.

    Right, for him when Trump or Harris wins, the election is fair and transparent.

    I’m sorry for the conspiracy tone, but they do keep playing you for fools.

    Fuck off Biden, now’s the time to use that presidential immunity you just got to attack enemies of the state before your term ends. It’s legal!
