I'm not going to vote, but if someone put a gun to my head and made me vote for one of the two main candidates I would vote for Trump before genocide Joe, just to punish the Democrats for their zionism and genocidal behavior. They deserve to be sent into the wilderness to lick their wounds and think about what they did wrong.
These Liberals should probably think twice about trying to compel people like me to vote.
honestly I think trump or any republican in office is the better outcome solely for the fact that it mobilizes liberals to actually give a fuck about the horrors the U.S. is perpetrating both at home and abroad
they turn into absolute mindless sleepwalking sheep whenever a democrat is in office and are willing to debase themselves and others to no end to defend even their most egregious offenses
Maybe a republican in office will result in those offenses being worse but at least liberals will give a shit about them.
i don't feel strongly enough about this to go vote for trump but it's the main reason I really don't give a single fucking fuck about the election. I watched these people turn off their brains the moment Biden was inaugurated, if they were ever on to begin with
Yeah as soon as Trump gets into office we're going to hear all the liberals actually start calling it a genocide and echo what we've been saying since October 7th. Suddenly they'll start giving a fuck when it's Trump shipping Israel a boatload of weapons every 36 hours.
it's so fucking wild knowing that this is how it is, but then these people get off calling leftists brainwashed? like we watch them react like this in real time over and over and over and over
I like Trump because he does not engage on strategic ambiguance, he will do the same wicked shit Biden does but the difference is that he will boast about it.
With Trump, liberals can no longer hide behind rhetoric and are forced to face material reality.
Also, when the liberals do their January 6th, it will be so fucking funny.
Nah it will be corny and lame, libs are far too image conscious and wimpy to do anything truly funny
what would a liberal jan 6 even look like, barging into a place is uncivil so like what, a candlelight vigil somewhere? I don't even know
Quietly filing into the senate chambers to sing Hamilton songs
Which is I thing I think they did once
If I can prove that I never touched my balls
They’ll be extra sad at brunch probably
ohhhh! that's it, they'll go occupy some democrat's brunch somewhere (not even a republican's brunch)
They gonna scream "shame on you" in unison i guess.
Start a petition
They will literally never reconsider. Losing to trump the first time did not convince them. After Bush stole the election they still called for compromise.
Depends which "they" we're talking about. The old guard of the party didn't blink at 2016, but most voters and probably most younger party workers did want a change of direction (to varying degrees). Bernie was the most popular candidate in 2020, and Medicare for All was so universally supported that everyone but Biden (lol) claimed to support some version of it. It took a primary screwjob without modern precedent and covid throwing the race into chaos to derail all that.
