It is real!

Rep. Earl L. “Buddy” Carter (R-GA) released the following statement today after introducing a bill authorizing President Trump to acquire Greenland and renaming it Red, White, and Blueland:
“America is back and will soon be bigger than ever with the addition of Red, White, and Blueland. President Trump has correctly identified the purchase of what is now Greenland as a national security priority, and we will proudly welcome its people to join the freest nation to ever exist when our Negotiator-in-Chief inks this monumental deal.”
Ok, I don’t support these clowns, and I hate that this is the way the public is finding out, but isn’t it nice that people are starting to truly see how incapable, incompetent, and corrupt our elected leaders have always been?
Where are these people that are starting to see this? The morons that voted for Trump are ecstatic with these distractions.
There was a discussion recently on reddit and basically almost everyone agreed that the Republicans in their circles don’t see anything wrong with what the government is doing, Musk and all.
I would never claim involved conservatives are capable of learning.
Do not underestimate how little the VERY VAST majority of people know about government or politics. I recently explained blue/red, left/right, lib/con, progressive/regressive are all related and blew someone’s mind. Then they asked “which ones are the bad ones” and I said “that is subjective and it depends on your views”. After very little explanation, they were socially liberal but fairly conservative fiscally (keep in mind, this was a disconnected completely normal person just going from day to day). It is hard to imagine, with the news and all, people not knowing the basics, but that really is the default. They often only know what they have been told growing up and nothing else.
A few years ago I was on a group bike ride (in Maryland), and we saw a car that had a bumper sticker mocking one of the more famous members of Congress. For example, it might have been about Ted Cruz’s vacation while Texas was dealing with extreme cold and widespread power outages. Or it might have been about Lindsey Graham blocking the supreme court nomination during the last year of Obama’s term, but then doing it during the last year of Trump’s term. I don’t remember for certain. It was definitely something like that.
I chuckled, and one person riding with us was like, “What’s so funny?” I explained who the person was and what they had done to prompt the reaction sticker, and her response was: “How could you possibly know who that person is?”
They don’t even know the more famous members of Congress or the stupid acts they are committing. They just do not know. A few days ago, she posted a picture of her and her husband, and the husband was wearing a “Trump victory!” T-shirt. Shocking.
There is no greater argument against democracy than the American people.
Ever seen those movies like OG Running Man where there’s a dystopian tv show within the wreckage of society and people love it? Well, life imitates art in this case except it’s our government that is the dystopian show and the uneducated masses love it. They want the violence to happen and the sex offenders in charge. It’s their shitshow and they aren’t offended by it, they want more.
Going to be interesting hearing people tell me why it’s actually great that we started another world war to steal land from one of our allies so we can give it a name even a 10 year old boy would call lame. Because you know Denmark is never going to sell it to us. The people who live there have no interest in being a US territory. Why would they? I hope these MAGA fuckers are happy sending their sons off to die for Trump’s ego.
