Ironically, this doesn’t include candidates whose only platform is “loyalty to Trump” as that only makes them members of another “Establishment”

You don’t have to be the leader, but you can’t really be anti-establishment while basing all your views on someone else’s.

…and which continues to demonstrate its uselessness every day.

Anti-Establishment candidates regardless of party affiliation will continue to win key elections because of this.

Trump didn’t get re-elected because he was more “conservative” or “centrist” than Harris. And he didn’t get elected because Harris was too “woke”. He got elected because he represented a big middle finger to a government Americans have come to angrily view as broken and useless…

It also what fuelled Trump’s return to power.

The divide isn’t between left & right and hasn’t been for awhile. - it’s between pro- and anti-establishment. It’s time for the dems to stop racing to the right in a futile attempt to reach an imaginary “more conservative” America.

YES. Still one of my all-time favourite Ghibli movies.

it’s so much more than a “distraction”. This is about establishing and normalizing the police state before the disastrous policies he’s implementing really start to hurt and anger people enough, so that he has the tools in place to violently stamp out any and all protest and dissent.

Ironically, it’s probably true that the Conservatives hate Trump just a little more right now.
