In Trump’s latest Truth Social post, he shares a disgusting video depicting a golden statue of himself, a sky scraper with his name on it, a superyacht on the Gaza coast, him holding hands with a female entertainer in a night club wearing a see-through gown, him & Netanyahu shirtless together sipping alcohol on the Gaza coast with a sign that says “Trump Gaza,” and money raining down with kids jumping up to grab it.
All the signs of what many would call the antichrist, yet the religious-right is convinced he’s their savior. He wants to turn Gaza into a Las Vegas style resort with his name plastered everywhere.
Imo the best part of the video is him dancing with a half naked woman who isn’t his wife
Lol you missed the part where she turns and her butt cheeks are showing.
Oh I didn’t miss it
Apparently in Trump Gaza, there’s trans belly dancers
Notice the green head scarf, that’s hamas colors. It’s no AI accident, that’s a FU to hamas militans.
You can’t convince me that isn’t Trump Jr.
The hope is that more and more people in the US realize how deranged their “president” is.
What? HE posted that? I thought it was a parody and he was angry about it? Are we SURE he posted it? I mean… it shows him fat and ugly. WTF?
Here’s a direct link, as I didn’t believe it was real:
https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/114068387897265338
Can you imagine the outrage if Biden, Obama, or Bush had this posted on an even semi-official account? Or even Trump in his first term?
Now it’s just… another Wednesday?
I think everyone has accepted at this point that Trump is extremely stupid and might be borderline mentally challenged. I mean even in the 80s people knew he was dumb, Biff Tannen in back to the future was reportedly based on Trump.
Look, most stupid people aren’t that mean and wouldn’t do this. I need you all to call him out for his immorality and stop throwing dumb people under the bus
basically every movie that had a ‘bad guy’ in the 80s and 90s was essentially a trump parody
Sadly "everyone"does not include his supporters
I’ve thought he is stupid several times but I think he is just nefarious. He could be both, but you should never underestimate your enemy.
100%, he is actively working with BRICS countries to destabilize our economy and kill us all. Part of that is working with Tulsi, Israel, and India/Modi to exterminate Muslims. The cult Tulsi is in is for just that, and her testimony at her confirmation hearing also explicitly referenced Muslims as her #1 issue. My assumption is that Iran and Saudi Arabia are going to use the turmoil to gain power over Islamic nations and eliminate their competition.

All the resources of the United States and he posts a badly done AI video with a shitty jingle. And it looks more like an ad for a Trump branded resort than a peace deal…
No way this is going to blow up in anyone’s face, no way at all…
shitty jingle
Which sounds ai generated as well
It’s very close to what I imagined when he first started talking about the Riviera of the middle east - but I have to admit, I didn’t have the statue and I had more golf. I obviously didn’t have the bearded belly dancers either - I guess I expected them to review it before release.
Don’t seem to be there anymore
Still there for me
This is literally insane. Like “need urgently to go to book a visit with a specialist” insane.
Could you believe it if you saw it just 4 months ago, with everyone screaming “Genocide Joe”
He actually posted it on “truth” https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/114068387897265338
I am really curious to see what the followers replied to that, but i don’t have an account
r/conservative actually is appalled by this, and his statement that Zelensky is a dictator who started the war
It seems to range from mild disapproval to saying it’s a sign of the antichrist but they still support him. Absolutely wild that people could watch this from trump and still support him. Some people replied thinking it was a joke. This is crazy the mental back flips some of the replies have.
Yeah, you can tell the Democratic party is a far superior organization if only because they have a few people in it who were willing to call out Biden and Harris’s support for genocide, where meanwhile the whole Republican party will support Trump no matter what he says or does
Unfortunately the issue is those voices get mocked & suppressed by the establishment Democrats in the major public positions of the Democratic Party that are beholden to their donors. I personally would love to see a new party emerge after all this that has a more progressive public agenda.
Best bet is probably progressives just taking over Dems the same way MAGA has it’s roots in the Tea Party shit decades ago. Otherwise it’s simply not possible without pretty substantial election reform, something neither party has interest in.
Otherwise it’s simply not possible without pretty substantial election reform, something neither party has interest in.
True but Alaska has already accomplished passing electoral reform. Republicans even tried to go back to First-past-the-post voting with a referendum last election and it didn’t pass.
So now the question is why are the democrats using a voting system republicans prefer and protect in red states?
Same reason we don’t have single payer healthcare, they can’t get enough votes and have way too much respect for the institution to play dirty.
I’m excited for the 2026 primaries. Dems have some house cleaning to do.
They haven’t learned a thing yet. Wouldn’t be surprised to see Republicans win more seats.
I’m choosing to think positively.
Remember how Al Franken’s career basically ended when that (certainly creepy and gross) picture of him groping a sleeping soldier came up? That the attitude in general among Dems was “yeah that’s pretty fucked up”?
What part matches the Antichrist?
I never claimed that. just sayin what I read on the replies. Honestly it’s not a perfect match but none of the prophecies of the bible ever are to reality.
Oh ok, we’re in The same spot. I thought there was something about the Antichrist becoming king of some part of Holly land or something. Seen other comparisons before that were kinda spot on. I don’t care for religion, but the last year kinda make me wish end of time could be partially true and rapture getting us rid of Jesus freaks would be a net positive.
I think what they are seeing is the parallels to the golden calf and idol worship. I’m not much for religion either tbh.
These were the top few replies on trending. To be clear I made the account specifically to see what fiasco trump “truths” next.
“you dancing with someone other than your wife”
They might have missed that whole Stormy Daniels story…
Thanks for screen grabbing these so I didn’t have to go there
I don’t know why but the “There is no God in this” got me full on belly laughing
This is literally a thing I have been saying would happen for over a year. This is darkly hilarious.
Ceasefire Joe was putting these kinds of posts on social media instead: nsfl image
Yeah Genocide Joe sure loves a dead Palestinian too. I’m so sick of people just accepting status quo.
It was a major issue that the Democratic Party chose to ignore, in opposition to the vast majority of their voter base and domestic/international law. That cost them votes at a time when they should have been doing everything possible to earn as many votes as possible. If they instead leaned into popular progressive policies, they could have instead fractured the Republican base. The party is 100% responsible for how they ran their campaign, despite all the polling data showing a change would give significant gains in votes, at the time where they should have done everything possible to win against a fascist.
A post-election poll showed the reason Kamala Cheney lost was because of her Biden-era stance on Palestine.
The first two show exactly that. The rest show how much support progressive economic policies have that they could have run on. They also should have taken a mass amnesty approach to immigration, which has more support than mass deportations, a fascist policy.

Yeah, Trump and Biden and Harris all want the same thing for Gaza, but Trump sure is a whole lot less subtle about it
But “genocide Joe”, tho, amirite protest / non-voters???
Yes, Butcher Biden enabled the genocide. This outcome is because Biden sent Israel the bombs that destroyed Gaza. You can and should oppose both.
The Biden administration vetoed multiple ceasefires at the UN. Voted against Palestinian sovereignty. Sent Israel thousands of bombs. Provided the legal, political and media cover for Israel to commit the genocide over a 15 month period.
Dig a deeper hole. You clearly never cared to oppose the genocide when Biden was president. You just want to settle scores.
Edit:
I don’t know those who downvoted this is it because they deny the genocide or deny the Democratic Party’s complicity in it? Either way clearly you are no allies if you oppose Trump’s plans but not Biden’s actions. Good luck in 2028, none of us are ever returning to the Democratic Party.
Yes, but Trump has said what he wants to do clearly and was happy about it, instead of frowning and wagging his finger while sending the weapons and publishing the propaganda. If Biden was supporting this, his complicity would be debatable.
Choices were either bad or much, much worse, and you chose the latter, sooooooo…congrats on your moral posturing that fucked Palestinians even worse!
Idk why I bother, but Biden’s main goal was the hostages which is why he canceled the ceasefire. Yes he sucks but he wasn’t per se for the genocide, he was for getting the hostages released as his main goal. Which arguably Israel was using their own people in Gaza as proxy hostages, bombing them and threatening to kill them unless the US kept giving them money, creating a reincarnation of the Iran Contra hostages that lost Carter the election. Notice that Netanyahu and Trump are buddies and Netanyahu vastly prefers Trump to Biden.

Sick meme bro, is it an NFT you bought with crypto while rolling to the gym in your SwastiTruck?
Genocide joe, genocide Trump. Enjoying the company you keep blue conservative?
Why is it that you relish in the fact that other Americans are unrepresented by their options in the voting booth? Do you hate democracy?
There is a better way. One in which people are free to vote for who best represents them. Are you working to give these people the freedom to vote for who they want? Or are you waiting to scream at people to vote for your preference.
Here are some helpful videos to show you that the democrats don’t have to be the only opposition to the republican party. I would say the democrats have more then lost their privilege to go it alone at the republicans.
Videos on Electoral Reform
First Past The Post voting (What most states use now)
Videos on alternative electoral systems we can try out.
A two party system is only one away from a one party state.
Cool, hit me up when you can get state legislatures to agree to that shit.
In the meantime I’ll be voting for the Dem party precisely because of the reason(s) your linked videos on voting systems say it’s dumb to not vote for one of the two parties in a first past the post system.
I can’t grok much of what you’re saying, seems to be mostly in response to some strawman you’ve conjured, as most/all of it doesn’t make sense in response to what I said.
Evil has many faces, sometimes funding a genocide, other times advocating ethnic cleansing.
Spare me. Dems are as evil as Republicans.
No, they aren’t. They never did this:
nbcnews.com/investigations/incoming-trump-administration-plans-deport-migrants-countries-rcna182896
And he’s got the Silk Road guy and Andrew Tate helping him - they are going to traffick us to other country for slave labor and parts and steal our money and land.
He’s already trying to make it a crime to be mentally unwell, and has made up a fake mental illness called “Trump Derangement Syndrome,”/TDS which is basically anyone who isn’t in his cult and disagrees with him. Dems not only didn’t do this, they COULDN’T do this.
Dems also are not anti-abortion and all the cruelty that leads to.
Yes, Neoliberalism is bad and ruining our country too. But it’s not NEAR as bad as full blown fascism, please learn some political literacy, you’re killing us all with your inability to see nuance and distinctions.
Cool story, much edgy
LOL… seriously? He sponsored killing approx. 70k Palestinians and his admin continually vetoed UN resolutions calling for a ceasefire, yet you’re bitter at voters that didn’t want to vote for Kamala “couldn’t think of anything I’d do differently” Cheney. You lost the moral high ground my dude.
Lol yeah, fucking seriously, you people are un-fucking-believable, have zero respect or patience with your shot, get fucked.

Hmm should I choose getting shot in the face or kicked in the balls?
The Palestinians chose that they didn’t want Democrats paying & sending weapons to people to massacre them. Sad that is what you want to do.
No it’s sad that you’re blind to pragmatic approaches to our reality.
That’s obviously not what I want to do. But I’m like 90% you’re part of an ongoing psy op to split votes away from Dems to help the GOP win elections and suppress votes through apathy. So what does it matter anyways I’m just spitting into the wind writing this or any replies to you.
I am part of a psyop called humanity. I don’t want people being okay with Democrats supporting and funding massacre of innocent people, many of them kids. I don’t want to see Republicans win elections any more than you, but that is the natural process of people not being enthusiastic to vote when you are justifying supporting genocide.
If Democrats want to win elections next time around then they should start talking about how they’ll honor the ICC arrest warrant and how they intend to sanction Israel. However, I’m fully prepared for you to explain why they can’t do that just like you explained away them funding genocide. Democrats need more than Trump Bad.
I don’t think I should need to explain the principles of harm reduction and pragmatism to you. Short version is it would have been better for Palestinians if Democrats won the presidential election.
Politics just doesn’t work the way you’re wanting it to. Sorry that I would rather cast a vote for a lesser evil than burn my vote and let an even worse outcome be manifest.
So you know what is better for Palestinians than Palestinians do? Haven’t we heard this before throughout history and acknowledged it is racist?
What are your thoughts on harm reduction? Should we choose the thing that hurts more people or fewer people?
Who is we to you? We chose already. You don’t get to choose for other people.
They didn’t say they would choose for others. They are asking what you think about harm reduction. That you responded in bad faith reveals a lot about you
Dude that doesn’t even make sense as a response to the comment above it. Stop wasting your own time? Go do something fun.
I just love that theres multiple shots of Elon stuffing his face for some reason

Please don’t post news from aggregators.
Here’s the original article:
The link I provided included the video inline, but I don’t see it with the link you provided. I tried finding a better source that included the video with it, but they were all right-leaning news organizations.
It works for me:
Doesn’t for me, maybe the mobile version is different.
…you mean like Lemmy?
What are the issues with aggregators?
They steal advertisement revenues from the sources that created the content they serve.
LOL. We all use adblockers around here.
For those who don’t…
I mean if we have to do advertisement-supported journalism, whichever advertisement revenues are generated should go to the creators, not to the thieves. It doesn’t cost you anything to link to the real McCoy rather than the copy, and if someone finds your post from outside Lemmy and clicks on your link without an ad blocker, it will send a tenth of a penny to the creator.
And yes, plenty of people browse without an ad blocker. How do I know? Because the advertisement industry is still alive and well, sadly.
Fediverse is said to be too confusing to use from redditors when reasons are given for why that haven’t joined, so this demographic of users likely skews much higher towards ad blocking with how niche the user base is.
By the same token, one can argue that expert Fediversers shouldn’t have any trouble retracing the true origin of whatever story they want to post and linking to that instead, to give credit where credit is due.
Because really, it doesn’t cost anything and it helps deprive the leeching aggregators of a few clicks.
That’s a different matter though when it comes to ad block usage here, which you had presented as though this place has the same mainstream access of non ad block users as other platforms.
I’m just talking about ad block usage of fediverse compared to other sites.
What. The. FUCK.
Just two guys having a good time (and genocide).
Bearded belly dancers…
So he doesn’t mind trans anymore?
WTAF
The Trump regieme officially endorses Palestinian transwomen, as long as they have abundant facial hair.
I think this is their way of saying you must be trans if you don’t support Trump.
Guess a bunch of losers shouldn’t have stayed home or protest voted.
Perhaps, but asking people to vote for the least bad option, when there is nobody they actually support, is an uphill battle.
I guess the democratic party should have passed electoral reform and invited 3rd parties to compete on who could beat the republicans best. But the DNC wants safe states, easy debates, easy elections, and a voting public who is held hostage.
Or maybe a bunch of Dems shouldn’t have been okay with the admin & future admin at the time funding genocide & vetoing resolutions to stop it. I think Dems that think like this must be in toxic abusive relationships already, cause they sure don’t know when to leave.
Lol.
Allow me to introduce you to reality. First thing’s first. You don’t get everything you want in reality. It fucking sucks and you have to bust your ass to get things even close to how you want them slowly over long periods of time.
Now, being that we’ve established reality, allow me to further explain this particular part of reality.
There is no scenario in which America gives up its oldest and most important ally in the Middle East. Not happening. Go ahead and forget that shit. That means America is going to tip-toe around Israel so as not to jeopardize that allegiance.
So now, in reality, you were presented with exactly two options in November. Why only two options? Because no 3rd party is even remotely close to winning a presidential election because no 3rd party has done the work to get ANY members in EITHER chamber of Congress. How do I know a 3rd party can’t win, other than having NO members in Congress? Because the 3rd party candidate with the most votes was magician Jill Stein who magically appears right before every election then magically disappears again after each election. And she only got exactly HALF OF A SINGLE PERCENT of the total votes cast. So now we know, definitively, that no 3rd party candidate had a snowball’s chance in hell of winning the 2024 presidential election.
So now let’s talk about our ONLY two options. One was NOT Donald Trump and the other one was, you guessed it, Donald Trump who, before the election, literally said “Israel should finish the job”. He made it abundantly clear, multiple times, that he gave exactly zero fucks about Palestine. And now, surprise surprise, he wants to level the place, round up Palestinians and send them to other countries, and build a fucking vacation resort.
So, rub those brain cells together and let me know which option would have been best for Palestinians. Let me know which option someone who claims to care about Palestinians should have chosen to minimize the suffering. Because you can cry to your mommy all day about neither option being good, but the bottom line is if you gave a fuck, you’d be interested in helping minimize the suffering.
And that’s just in relation to Palestine. If you did your homework like any responsible American should, you’d find out that our economy fairs better under Democrats, they have WAY less convicted criminals in their ranks, and they have a voting history proving they regularly vote in favor of the middle and lower classes. And again, I’ll repeat, your ONLY two options for the foreseeable future, until a 3rd party gets off their asses and does some real hard work, are either Democrats or Republicans.
Now, if you’re admitting you either didn’t vote or protest voted, you probably don’t have the brain cells to grasp anything I just said, but hopefully others reading this will.
Lol.
Now that you “established reality”, let me add one caveat of reality that keeps getting ignored when folks make your argument.
Left wing voters are not motivated by genocide, nor trying to meet those who do support it in the middle with “just a bit of genocide, as a treat”.
Maybe America can’t give up its “most important ally in the middle east”. But in that case, unless the Dems could find a way to bridge the gap between appeasing Israel and stopping genocide, then it was obvious they were going to lose.
But they didn’t even try to. FFS they didn’t even try to pay lip service to the very notion. Nor did they try to rally their base with policies their base has been asking for for decades. Instead they campaigned on “we are a big enough tent to welcome Republicans like Dick Fucking Cheney”. With a last minute candidate swap putting forward someone who lost the last primary by a frankly embarrassing margin.
I voted for Kamala, I kept these opinions to myself to not push voters away from doing so, and I pushed the harm reduction argument to anyone who was considering abstaining or voting 3rd party. I still believe it was the best play we had with the hand we were dealt. But it wasn’t the best play the Democrats had, it was damn near the worst.
When we have decades of data to show how many people don’t vote, and how fickle those who do are, it’s on the political party to motivate their voters. And Dems just didn’t fucking bother. On the contrary, the reality is that the party the motivated almost all voters in the country was MAGA. Be it for or against Trump. Almost no one was voting FOR Kamala.
So welcome to reality, the reality that you cant win an election based on the virtue of “being the second worst option”.
Left wing voters are not motivated by genocide, nor trying to meet those who do support it in the middle with “just a bit of genocide, as a treat”.
Since we’re adding caveats of reality, I’ll join in: the Democrats’ myriad mistakes and missteps in “motivating” left wing voters does not absolve those voters of their own responsibility.
You did the right thing
voted for Kamala, I kept these opinions to myself to not push voters away from doing so, and I pushed the harm reduction argument to anyone who was considering abstaining or voting 3rd party.
I did the same, despite my own similar lack of “motivation”, because as you said, it was the best play we had with the hand we were dealt. The criticism here is leveled at the third party voters and abstainers, because the people here are voters. If you want to criticize Democratic leadership, I encourage you to direct that criticism directly toward them.
I would love to have had a viable alternative, but without significant representation in Congress and state Governorship, it’s just not going to happen. Successful presidential campaigns don’t just appear out of thin air (unless you have a massive cult of personality). The vast majority of presidents were previously Senators or Governors, offices that they rose to after careers that began at the local level. If you want better options, actually vote in your local elections, and encourage other leftists to do the same.
Until then, red vs blue is our reality, and criticizing the lesser evil for not being good enough is a virtue signal circle jerk.
unless the Dems could find a way to bridge the gap between appeasing Israel and stopping genocide, then it was obvious they were going to lose.
There is no bridging the gap. The dipshit protest voters made that clear. They had to have it 100% their way or no way at all. Because they’re children who are willing to sacrifice our democracy over a single fucking issue.
Remember, these protest voters were so fucking stupid that they chose to allow Donald Trump to become president, knowing he would be FAR, FAR worse on the topic of Palestine. They never gave a flying fuck about Palestine. They only cared about being morally superior. Otherwise they would have swallowed their dipshit pride and voted in such a manner as to help Palestinians as much as they had the power to.
You can sit here and complain about the Democrat party all you want, but the alternative was so fucking bad, proven by 1 already utterly failed presidency, that only a fool of the highest degree would act in such a way as to allow that alternative back into power, no matter how many complaints they have about the Democrat party. And, oh look, now our federal government is being deconstructed in front of our very eyes, oligarchs are pilfering the public coffers, and Gaza will be turned to ash. Actions, meet consequences.
You say the Democrat party didn’t do anything to help themselves. I can agree they could have done more. But they had a successful presidency to tout, a voting record proving they try to help average Americans, stats showing a recovering economy, which they also touted, and have many representatives opening discussions about things like universal healthcare, which has never, and will never, be part of the discussion over on the other side of the aisle. They did not just sit around thinking “hey look at the other option” was their only strategy. Just look at the Kamala/Trump debate. She talked facts and policy and he shit himself and talked about immigrants eating people’s pets, explaining that he only had concepts of plans.
You need to understand that the brunt of the blame here does not fall on the Democrat party. It falls squarely on Americans for being trash, low information, easily manipulated voters. It’s not Democrat’s fault Americans aren’t responsible enough to inform themselves. Americans are failing spectacularly at their civic duty.
the reality is that the party the motivated almost all voters in the country was MAGA
Yeah, it’s a whole hell of a lot easier to utilize hate, fear, and lies to motivate people than to expect adults to be responsible and actually do their homework.
In terms of an individual’s personal philosophy, I agree, but I’m not so willing to give the Democratic party slack. They SERIOUSLY fucked up 2016 and 2024 elections - votes are earned. This is literally their job and they are incompetent. We still have Dem lawmakers on fucking TWITTER. How slow and out of touch can they be - they should know the owner of Twitter is not safe, threw up a Nazi salute, and sold us out to Russia via Starlink satellites.
They lost on social media and on the policies themselves not being exciting enough. Gaslighting the public that the economy is good when starvation increased by like 8% and homelessness by 18% in 2024
It’s frustrating as fuck. Had they just held a fair primary in both 2016 and 2024, we may have won. Instead they testified in court in 2016 that they didn’t have to hold fair elections. Noodle spine Hakeem Jeffries seems unable to do anything but speak at fundraisers and raise funds, per his own admissions.
Luckily we have people like Bernie, AOC, Jasmine Crockett, Maxwell Frost, Al Green, Merkley, Markey, and many others who are speaking out and doing the work.
votes are earned
That’s only half the equation. Yes, a party is responsible for advertising themselves and their accomplishments. The other half of the equation is the populace being responsible adults, which is NOT the case with a LARGE swath of Americans. It’s American’s responsibility to inform themselves about a party’s voting history and criminal conviction history. To be aware of the status of the economy under each party, historically. It’s literally impossible for a party to thoroughly educate every last voter.
We still have Dem lawmakers on fucking TWITTER.
I don’t like it, but realistically it’s probably for exposure. Particularly to independent voters. It’s still a very large platform and if they leave, then it’s 100% a racist Nazi shithole instead of just 95%.
They lost on social media
It’s hard to compete against hate, fear, racism, and general misinformation. Truth can’t win on the internet until companies are actually held accountable for the damage their platforms cause due to their inability to moderate misinformation. This is one of the primary reasons I believe the future to be a dark one.
Gaslighting the public that the economy is good
All metrics indicate the economy was recovering under Democrat leadership. Clearly that takes time. I agree that they could have advertised that better, but again, it’s partially up to Americans to be aware of these metrics. It’s their civic duty.
Look, Democrats can do better. No doubt. But the bottom line is Americans chose the BLATANTLY worse option. As in, we may never see such a blatant, obvious election ever again in our lives. That’s on Americans and their inability to take their civic duty seriously.
Yes, a party is responsible for advertising themselves and their accomplishments.
They are responsible for so much more than that, including making and passing good policies the public likes and is excited about.
and general misinformation No, and this is another bone I have to pick - we’ve been in conflict with massive online psyops, which the Dems have known about. They started talking about this relating to the 2016 election, and here’s a memo from 12/31/24 saying it happened in the 2024 election: https://home.treasury.gov/news/press-releases/jy2766
So it’s actually hugely important that they address these massive online psyops (and indeed have been somewhat), but weren’t effective and imo didn’t take it seriously or aggressively enough.
The economy really wasn’t improving for the poorest. That you all dismiss homelessness and starvation, literally such an increase it affected millions in one of the wealthiest countries, is why Dems lost the trust of their voters. They were saying “hey, I’m like, at risk of literally DYING,” (bc starvation literally kills!) And they were gaslighted that actually things were fine. And you’re confused why people didn’t vote? Maybe they didn’t have the calories. We know food matters for the ability to learn and research as well, that’s why feeding kids breakfast and lunch was so desirable because it increases test scores and learning and pays for itself later.
Maybe Dems (the ones like Hakeem Jeffries, not AOC) just aren’t as good of leaders as they claim. They know how to cozy up to rich people for speeches at Goldman-Sachs, sure. They can fundraise and often ONLY fundraise (I noticed a lack of volunteer positions for Kamala, donations only, whereas Bernie allowed me to volunteer and make calls for his campaign). To your average person, the Dems abandoned them, so they abandoned the Dems.
The Dems got out matched by Republicans due to weakness, as they have been for years, starting with Gore and the hanging chads, the last Obama Supreme Court seat, and a million capitulations and Lucy and the football situations.
LOL… go ahead and splain away why you think people should vote for the slave holder. Why it isn’t on the slave holder to change their beliefs, but on the people voting to just suck it up. In fact, you don’t even think you should bother getting the slave holder to change their beliefs. You are fine with slavery.
Now, if you’re admitting you either didn’t vote or protest voted, you probably don’t have the brain cells to grasp anything I just said, but hopefully others reading this will.
Jill Stein received more votes from Palestinians than Harris. Now according to you, Democrats like yourself are just way smarter than they are capable of comprehending and they should just sit down, shut up & do what you tell them. The slave holder knows best according to you.

This is unhinged as fuck. Color me unsurprised.
Jill Stein received more votes from Palestinians than Harris.
Jill Stein received HALF OF A SINGLE PERCENT OF THE TOTAL VOTES CAST. That makes her irrelevant. Which makes the other 3rd party candidates with less votes less than irrelevant.
I honestly can’t wrap my mind around someone being dumb enough to abstain from voting or vote 3rd party if they claim to give any shits at all about Palestinians. Especially if they’re dumb enough to continue holding their stance on the matter now, when we’re seeing the repercussions of such a stupid action.
But hey, you’re trying to use some ridiculous slave holder analogy, so I guess I shouldn’t be shocked.
Jill Stein received more votes than Harris by Palestinians. Can you repeat that thing you said about Palestinians being dumb?
I’ll just leave this here

If you are concerned with spoiler candidates, you should be very invest in passing electoral reform in your state. That way the people voting for the green party could still potentially have their votes counted against the republicans, even if the green party didn’t win.
Are you working to pass electoral reform in your state?
Yes. I vote for the ONLY VIABLE party that’s interested in progressive politics and is malleable enough to be swayed by pressure from their voters to achieve progressive goals.
Honestly, sharing an insane AI video to social media is such peak boomer. Perfectly on brand for him and his audience.
