i’m consistently stunned that so many people are sticking with trump despite literally only bad things happening and getting worse under him but then i remember that most of his supporters have this cope that good things will eventually come, when? no idea. but that’s enough for them

10 years ago, Amanda Marcotte was calling Bernie supporters a bunch of racist, sexist, spoiled rich kids and now she's trying to launder the history of the Young Republicans. el oh fucking el.

They have 100% always been this way, though notably the transition from helicopter rides and referencing crushing minorities abroad humorlessly transitioned to nazi shit, but like that's basically a new layer of paint instead of a new perspective.

It's because while in theory you could make a weak argument about leftism being the cause, all the investigations into his past basically demonstrated a kid raised in a "wholesome" conservative religious household that was completely obsessed with guns, and they know that's bad messaging lol.

Did I miss any updates on the investigation into the motive of Charlie Kirk’s killer? It feels like that just disappeared as a story, which is strange considering his exaltation within GOP and making his murder into a national event. I’d think we’d be getting hearing about it frequently

It should not be understated how much clever shit like this actually annihilates morale at places like ICE/CBP.

Getting made fun of like this on national television while people laugh at you is.. well, you may call it victory wine, but it ain't.

here’s how much the obama campaign—which drove the majority of romney’s bad press—held back: his church that banned black people until the 70s baptized obama’s dead mom and they didn’t say shit
