As a leftist, I'm on board with this sentiment. But as an ex-right-winger, I know this would exclude me from my current community. We should allow space for growth and reconciliation, but if you still support Trump and the Republicans at this point, fuck you.
Same with “I don’t vote” centrists who complain about Trans people in sports but don’t say a peep about ICE, DOGE, and everything else. They can go right to hell.
A reminder that 2/3rds of eligible voters in America voted for Trump. 1/3rd voted for him, 1/3rds didn't vote.
Over 60% of eligible voters were 100% okay with Trump winning.
Idk, Ive often thought jail, homelessness, & work were big contributed to that 1/3 number that gets thrown around
Over 82 million Americans were either homeless, in jail, or working for weeks between early voting opened and election day?
That's a little difficult to believe. You know you can vote before election day, right? Like... Literally weeks prior?
I've been voting in Canada for 20 years. Never once have I voted ON election day.
Having voted for the pos is one thing,
STILL supporting it in 2026, after everything that has happened and everything that is known,...
The word straightjacket comes to mind.
This was the case almost a decade ago.
Australian here who was 100% convinced that Trump ran as a joke to get Hillary elected in 2016.
Now here knowing that Trump is an insane old man who should be in a retirement home and not running a country.
But I don't care for the fact that most of American politicians are supporting the terrorist state of Israel. Trump is an insane old man but Israel is horrific. Phone bombs, burning children alive, pumping US citizens tax dollars (that was given to them) into lazy American politicians.
You were kinda correct. Trump becoming the big Republican nominee was part of the Pied Piper strategy of the establishment Democrat party. The Hillary Clinton campaign intentionally uplifted radical conservative candidates in an effort to make winning elections easier. The logic was if the Conservative party looks crazy, the Democratic party can run on simply pointing out that craziness without needing to actually have specific policies or positions. The establishment Democrats loved the idea of doing less work, so they eagerly adopted the strategy and focused on crushing their own left flank candidate Bernie Sanders.
The Clinton campaign and the DNC had done a bunch of oppositional research on Donald Trump in preparation, but chose to sit on it, not wanting to tank Trump's chances of becoming the nominee. They focused instead on Jeb Bush and Marco Rubio.
This is why the US has a bunch of feckless Democrats who never seem to run for anything, only against Republicans. They keep running this same, "vote for me or you'll get the crazy man" strategy, even though they keep losing with it.
Every day I waited for them to announce it was a big joke when he decided to run for president. Now our country is the joke.
Seriously up until I got the message that Trump had become president and Hillary had lost I was 100% convinced he was running as a joke and doing everything he could to help Hillary.
The next time he became president I am 150% convinced that Elon musk rigged the election.
I never liked Hillary Clinton but Kamala Harris is brilliant.
I'm not an American, neither is Elon and I have hated Elon Musk since back when he was a beloved left wing hero.. I hated Elon Musk from the moment I saw him and I'll hate him until the day I die.
I hate lots of others, Disney, Amazon, Adobe, Microsoft CEOs.
Just don't get me started on how much I think I should be the emperor of earth.
You got my vote. Can't do any worse right?
"Fuck off shitbag. You can't hang with us; You voted for a rapist pedophile."
