Let’s go TACO, let’s go!!!

Update: Yes, the Dems have been pretty much useless but they can’t do anything when they have no majority in either the House or Senate and Don TACO is ruling by EOs.

But this is how you get him and them. Fuck the high road, hit them at their level. Call them names like weirdos and TACO. If anything induce strokes in all of them.

    I hate absolutely everything about this.

    I’ve never been a fan of calling Trump nicknames or going low, not because I’m trying to uphold any sort of highroad Liberal ideology but because I personally find it crass and he’s an abominable human being with thousands of legitimate offenses to point to. If you do it on your own time to blow off steam, whatever, I’m not gonna get on your case. But I need more from our politicians.

    What’s the message here? I get that it’s generally to agitate him, but are you trying to goad him into not chickening out? Just fucking do it, bro. There are thousands of Americans with food insecurity right now and you’re gonna give Republicans tacos?! Again, I get that it’s not really comparable and those issues are on different levels, but it still maintains that glossy respectability where you can’t really levy any criticism against it because they’re just giving away tacos. There’s no real message here at all.

    And lastly, nobody is even standing up to put their name on this. The DNC is doing this? Who? Whose idea? We have so many Republicans at every level chomping at the bit to get themselves in front of any camera they can to spread their repugnant message and we can’t even get one Democrat to stand up and put their name on this meager messaging. Fucking cowards, the lot of them.

    I expected nothing and I’m still disappointed.

      And these tacos don’t raise minimum wage to a livable wage, tacked to COL adjustment, universal health care, safe infrastructure, leisure time, she, livable housing, safe public transportation, green energy, clean food, soil, air, water, fully funded, world-class education. And they probably add to the myriad health effects of garbage food.

          NoBoDy WaNtS tO WoRk AnYmOrE Dems can resume saying that when they fix these issues and do get to work on constituents’ behalf.

          And while they’re at it, codify Roe and cap C-suite salaries.

          Eta: and codify lgbtqia/race protection. this absolutely will happen when they fear the public more than they fear the ultrawealthy.

      They have nothing to offer. Tacos is an easy press win. Keeps their names in the headlines and attracts what they see as favorable attention.

      The goal is status quo, but that’s hard to sell. So, tacos
