Unlike Trump, I don't care if someone likes me or not. That will never change the fact that I'm going to fight for them to have health care.

I want MAGA to have health care. I want MAGA to be paid a living wage.

to be fair the roberts court was like a decade out in front of the GOP proper on this one in describing bribery and racism, just in absurdly clinical terms instead of absurdly incredulous ones

to be fair a lot of people also think that Texas' redistricting was a dummymander because they don't realize how brutally effective people are at figuring out how to optimize that now

I think this was someone's exaggerated mocking description of them a few years ago but that they've gradually been working their way towards it anyway

I think the raw power of republicans having total domination over Phone is a new and terrifying phenomenon and I don't think that it is possible to sustain a PR campaign on any reasonably long timescale when Phone is playing for the other team

the american public is too far right to muster any sort of electorally meaningful opposition to the republican party of 2025, perhaps a different country's public would oppose it harder
