yep, same, when the guys i work around told me that trump was going to win in 2016, i bet all of them 5 grand he wasn’t. i was positive clinton wasn’t going to let that happen. glad none of them took me up on it. didn’t make that bet this time around with anyone.
yes. agreed. though, once again, working in the community, really opened up my eyes to what a great many naturalized citizens feel is important to them. not all, of course, but it shocked the shit out of me, and no one would have believed it until after they voted.
*edit: it’s important to know what your constituency values, and if those things run counter to the basis of secular egalitarian representative democracy, change their minds. just saying well that’s stupid and self destructive to the whole, isn’t going to win their votes.
Tell me you haven’t spent much time in the naturalized Latino community, hanging out, asking them about where they came from, asking how they feel about illegal immigrants, without, you know, telling me.
After trump called every stripe of latino, rapists and murderers, and threatened mass deportations, out loud, and often, more latinos voted for donald trump in this election than have ever voted for any republican candidate in any american election before.
It’s deluded and destructive, but this is the reality on the ground.
knitting. he knits in private.
It’s The Religion of Peace, you see, which in looking the other way, in no way infantilizes the entire culture, which is good, because they’re marrying the girl infants away
Trump’s goal is chaos. A Million Americans died from his inept and mismanaged Global Pandemic response the last go around, and loading up every Federal agency with chuckleheads who can only run them into the ground (health, defense, intelligence, finance), he’s gonna beat that first number handily. It’s literally going to be bedlam, everywhere, all the time, with no checks, no balances. In Capitalism, for someone to earn, labor must be taken advantage of. In this scenario, I don’t know how earnings can be created, when everyone is dying from something.
Tell me you don’t understand who Donald Trump is, and what’s about to happen in the United States, without, you know, telling me
no. that was 10 years ago. that is a child’s view now. trump is stacking every single fucking federal agency, health, defense, intelligence, finance, with morons who will run them all into the ground. his goal is chaos. there will be only 2 kind of people left in the united states in a few years : the very rich, and the dying.
it. is. the. end. of. everything. you. thought. america. was. everything.
lol. The OG Bible, you mean The Torah, Jesus isn’t even in that one.
You think Trump’s Congress is going to defend Right to Repair? It’s the end of all things.
could? trumps destruction is guaranteed to cost trillions. it’s the end of all things. this is not hyperbole.
Now? AFTER the Fascist was put into power again by the owner and the platform, after saying and paying hundreds of millions for the exact outcome for quite a while now. Now they think it’s a good time to stop supporting his platform. Now? Phyrric. Barn Doors and Horses come to mind.
It is a scam, in the end it is pointless to try, but you gotta eat, clothe yourself, and it’s warmer indoors, which all necessitate to generate income._
phyrric. barn doors and horses spring to mind.

American chicks love to fuck. A lot. This is not the 1600 peasant community sworn to one man, any longer, where the denial of “marriage rights” is at the forefront of the Feminist reality. Yet. The reality of the loss of Roe really hasn’t been felt yet in the majority of female spaces, especially Liberal states, but with an oncoming expected Trump/Congress push for nationwide Ban on Abortion, along with all the other and various sundry Misogynistic legislation coming in the next couple years, it will get there, and American girls and women will then be ready to swear off. But it’s going to be a long time coming. I agree, the time is now, but the wave is so far off we can’t even see it yet.

go sit in a corner, and think about what you just posted
I do not put it past Russia to troll us like this
to answer this honestly more than dips the toe into racist stereotypes, and i’d like to have the honest conversation but will suffice to say, the guys i know (and this isn’t limited to that small group) appreciate strength, and a heavy hand from their government, almost above all other things.
it would have been advantageous for democrats to have pointed out that, by and large, the nations from which a majority have immigrated from, are corrupt, and dangerous to the point where a living wage is unattainable, and the organs of state either could not or would not keep them and their families safe.
that is what the united states can offer, with a government of by and for the people. now we fall considerably short of this, all the time, and have since the founding fathers, but we have an engine of economy, and relative comparative safety which continue to draw latino immigrants, legal and otherwise.
it’s in pointing out the benefits, of a free egalitarian secular representative accountable democracy, which drew they and their families here in the first place, and explain, in detail, how corruption that the MAGA world was threatening, and displayed during Trump’s first term, would destroy all that they had come to this country for in the first place.
