“You know, we don’t live in a democracy because a democracy is two wolves and a lamb deciding what’s for dinner. OK? It’s not just majority rule. It’s a constitutional republic. The founders set that up because they followed the biblical admonition of what a civil society is supposed to look like. What’s happened, Alex, …

        It’s less optimism & more a concrete trend if you look at the elections that have happened since the GOP destroyed Roe v. Wade.

          It’s a risky strategy though.

          The Clinton team admitted to elevating Trump for an easy win.

          How did that go?

            The Clinton team had Clinton on it. If they’d run against anyone other than Trump it would’ve been an even bigger slaughter.

      This batshit motherfucker is going to drive so many voters to the Dems. Keep amplifying his insane bullshit.

      Surely boosting far-right candidates won’t backfire again clueless

        If we just keep platforming fascists eventually people will start voting for our milquetoast fascist-lite candidates who offer no solutions to any problems!

      This batshit motherfucker is going to drive so many voters to the Dems.

      Rich Republicans will continue voting for whoever taxes them the least. Poor Republicans will continue voting to spite their perceived opponents (minorities, gays, “the woke mob”).

      Yeah, I don’t think so Tim.

      If Trump didn’t drive all the moderate Republicans over to the Democrats, this guy isn’t gonna do it.

          No, most of them won because most of them were in uncompetitive districts.

          Most of the candidates he endorsed in the few competitive districts that still exist did indeed lose, though.

      Normies actually believe what he says.

      Look at 4chan, there’s no shortage of idiots who want to believe that porky is our lord and savior and they’re actually the good guys when they go around ruining other people’s lives “for teh lulz”.

        I am begging you to stop whinging about “normies”, as well as pretending 4chan is a reasonable representation of the general population when it’s q freaks and reactionary societal outcasts.
