They’re so desperate to be able to say, “I didn’t vote for that,” in the future.

A plan precedes a decision, reaction is what happens when you fail to do that.

Next week he’ll say it’s billions of barrels.

There’s no reason people who want to hasten the end of the world should be in any positions of power. The religious right is an existential threat to humanity.

In retrospect, a healthy media, one not entirely captured by the need to be entertained, would have hammered home the fact that the guy running in 2015 had half a dozen bankruptcies.

The least surprising thing right now is that the guy who bankrupted a casino took us into a war with no plan.

He really thought this would be like all those sci-fi/fantasy movies where if you take out the Mothership, Final Boss etc all of their hive-mind minions instantly turn to dust.

I wish these people were implanted with chips that shocked the fuck out of them every time they lie.

As is the case with tariffs, they all back Trump right up to the point they have to put their name to it with a vote, and then, not so much.

Just outright admitting we’re the dog being wagged by the tail.

Republicans are a massive death cult disguised as a political party.

What needs to happen for Senate Dems to make this man their leader?

I hate how much this man is singlehandedly responsible for antisemitism in this world.

Very few politicians that are shittier than Graham.

The thing I learned is that they’re largely pointless. And then you get the shitty acknowledgement that you were right but it’s begrudged and doesn’t change the past.

Spent my early 20’s arguing with morons about the damage it would do.

Even republicans know you have to suffer from brain damage to support them.

They also claim to be the base while never actually voting for Dems.

There’s a lot of that.

That’s plausible. I worry that Trump, in his diminished state, panics and decides he wants to show the world HIS power.

And it’s important that they listen to those of us who were adults then and hated Republican warmongering as much then as we do now.

I think there’s a real chance Trump nukes Iran.

He’s one of the few Democrats that consistently stays on this administration’s ass. Please back him.

I want to walk you through why it’s nearly certain Trump’s Iran War is going to be a massive, deadly, trillion dollar failure. And why you should be furious he’s set us on this path.

You’re telling me that President Id was impulsive and didn’t think this through?

🚨BREAKING: The U.S. Supreme Court has declined to consider two cased brought by the rightwing group PILF — one concerning the group’s ability to access voter roll records, and another addressing what constitutes “reasonable efforts” by states to maintain accurate voter rolls. www.democracydocket.com
