24.10.2025 05:28 โ ๐ 1 ๐ 0 ๐ฌ 0 ๐ 0Trump's claim he has a mandate is a lie.
There were 267 million voting age adults in 2024. Trump got 77 million votes.
Therefore:
Less than 50% of voters chose him, and his votes represent 29% of voting age adults.
His "mandate" is less than 1 in 3, similar to what Hitler had in the 1930s.
Um. Russia has been selling oil to India and China to duck previous sanctions. This seems performative, like 99% of the rest of the actions taken by the current administration.

It's good for perspective sometimes to make lists, otherwise stuff gets lost.
$40+ billion of US taxpayer money to Trump's dictator buddy in South America didn't make the list.
Not did more extrajudicial murders in international waters.
But got to draw a line somewhere.
Yup. It's good for perspective sometimes to make lists, otherwise stuff gets lost.

But got to draw the line somewhere.
Imagine if the reverse were the case--Cuba, say, was sinking US boats and killing US civilians and offering nothing as evidence.
And even if the US has evidence, it's still murder when people are being slaughtered without due process.
Cheers to Russia reaping what it has sown. The world would be a better place if it evolves from the tyrannical manipulative monstrosity that it is currently.

MAGA craves engagement and attention. Don't give it to them.
The Christian right, too--same thing. They want conflict so they can feel persecuted and become martyrs.
Ignore them. Pointedly.

Trump announced recently that the US has destroyed a submarine carrying drugs ๐ค and I thought "Well, it's about time they got that thing. It's been on YouTube forever." ๐

Donald Trump pardoned the โCamp Auschwitzโ guy, dined with Holocaust deniers, and said, โany Jewish person that votes for Democrats hates their religion.โ The Young Republicans chat isnโt a coincidence. Itโs a culture.
