Political Memes

If the pussy grabbing thing wasn't, nothing ever will be.

I disagree (with the title but agree with you the post), Jan 6th should truly be the dealbreaker. Why? Cause it’s not even politics, it’s simple rules of games.

If you can’t accept when you lose, you don’t get to play anymore.

They had 4 years to jail him over treason and they didn’t. I said it before and I’ll say it again, Biden should have jailed him for Jan 6th.

I'll never understand how Biden just let that go. He should have made it impossible for Trump or any of the other criminals from the previous administration to participate in politics again.

Why would people think it was a big deal when the entire news media played it down, and then the guy who did it was allowed to run for the highest political office again.

Because, for his supporters, anything but them getting their own way is an injustice.

I don't understand why AIPAC, Citizens United, exorbitant health care and education costs, tax rates for the rich, slavery in prisons, and every other goddamned ridiculous thing that other first world countries don't have wasn't a deal breaker.

Look, all you have to do is accept my one and only axiom: Most people on this planet are total and absolute idiots.

There are Americans that believe Trump has never lied. Like ever. About anything. He is truth. Some Americans actually believe this.

Mine was George Floyd. When I saw so many people stand up and say that man deserved death over a bounced check I knew they lost their damn mind.

"those people are ignorant"

-My conservative mother, pretending Trump didn't work tirelessly for years enraging them, tell them to do exactly what they did, and then gleefully watch for 2 hours while they did it.

In other words, she thinks trump had nothing to do with it, as laughable as that is.

Perception is reality.

Control news, social media, and church and you can distort/gaslight reality.

Only the better educated can sometimes see through bullshit.

The second I saw he was running the first time, I knew it was going to be a disaster. Maybe I couldn't appreciate just how much of a disaster it would be though

January 6 gave the Nazis hope and basically exposed how easy it is to topple the government if they have law enforcement on their side.

Until my final breath I'll never understand how George W. Bush wasn't a dealbreaker for every future Republican president. And then they voted for Trump of all people.

Like that's it. We humans have failed evolution.

Because half the fucking country is treating it like sports.

It's because the Democrats didn't inflict any consequences on Republicans and used the "let's look to the future and not dwell on the past" framing on it. How can you blame voters for not taking it seriously if Democrats didn't?

Propaganda

Fox news Oann Newsmax

All propaganda channels that literally only publish lies. Fox news sued (and won) for the right to call itself a news channel yet lie their asses off without any legal problems

I'm just amazed that nobody saw this coming since at least 2-3 decades ago

I understand it.

People are paying 30% more to live now than they did before. No one cares about a person's politics if they claim they'll put food on your table.

Well the answer to "why did people still support Trump after Jan 6th" is actually "Jan 6th."

Those people that came to DC and walked to the Capitol and stormed out are Americans who were a) pissed off and b) willing and able to travel and march and attack on behalf of Trump.

That's not nothing in terms of power and influence. And it's indicative of a BUNCH of people who met condition (a) but not (b). Like probably an order of magnitude or more.

Since no Republican stepped up to steal those supporters from Trump by pointing out how absolutely un-American Jan 6th was, they stayed loyal to him. So the politicians followed, the owners followed, and the media followed.

Because human brains are more frail than we think they are, and propaganda works amazingly well.
