      Trump is a narcissistic sociopath with dementia. He doesn’t care that this war is insanely unpopular. He’s fully convinced in his own abilities to steal the 2026 election and permenantly end US democracy.

      And the Dems have, at best, not offered any meaningful resistance to him whatsoever. At worst, they’re literally complacent.

        you’re welcome to give them your scorn, but for fucks sake, in november, we have to overwhelm conservative bullshit nationwide.

        it’s probably the last chance we have. and it’s statewide elections, so find the people who reflect your views and please show up and vote.

    The thing that sucks about all of this is that, yet again, we’re all footing the cost of this.

    That they would be panicking implies they had no way to know or guess that attacking anyone in the Middle East would cause an issue with oil production and transport. If that is the case, they really are the stupidest bastards out there.
