    Don’t waste your time waiting for the Democrats to save you.

    Organize and train.

    Once again:

    • Fascists promise to do fascist things
    • Americans vote for fascists
    • Elected fascists do fascist things
    • How could Democrats do this???

      You missed a couple of steps, no biggie:

      • Fascists promise to do fascist things
      • Americans vote for fascists
      • Elected fascists do fascist things
      • Fascists go unpunished because of the Democrats
      • Elected fascists do fascist things
      • How could Democrats do this???

        Where do you think the fascists get the political capital to be able to do whatever they want with impunity? The fucking voters.

          Yes, but how do (a good proportion of) voters decide who they support? They look at what the two parties do. And this is what the Democrats did: not even close to enough.

            And they only know what the Democrats did through the media, and the media overwhelmingly supported the fascists (and is largely owned by fascist oligarchs).

            They look at what the two parties do.

            And they picked the fascists.

          The fact that you liberals, after all this time, after all the tools leftists have armed you with to debunk US State Dept lies, after all the wealth of historical records available to you, still don’t understand the consequences of your own actions, still don’t understand that you are the fascists, desperately trying to scrabble to explain how this could be happening,

          And still being wrong,

          Is genuinely the funniest thing I’ve ever fucking seen in my life.

          America deserves Trump.

    Just maintaining the rule of law should have been enough. Didn’t trump just brag about musk manipulating the voting machines in Pennsylvania?

    All the democrats had to do was enforce the law while in power, and they failed to do so. The monied interests in America wanted fascism, and it was handed to them on a silver platter.

    Democrats abandoned all else to focus on one thing: keeping Donald Trump out of office

    Did they really? Who were these Democrats who focused on keeping Trump out of office?

    Were it the ones who wouldn’t stop talking about him? The ones giving him free advertisement? Or was that the press? Were it the ones who refused to make policies that people were interested? WHO!?

    Y’all love Trump. Don’t even pretend.

        I had a brief look through your comment history, you’re posting mainly on Trump posts, encouraging the cycle of Trump in the news.

        Yea, you love Trump, and you’re part of the y’all. What would you even do with your time if Trump wasn’t around?

      Both Clinton and Harris ran on “I’m not Trump!” but when the public responds “Yeah, we know!” you need to have something else.

      Clinton was “Well, it’s my turn.”

      Harris was “I’m just like Biden.”

      The past POTUS term was like a wet blanket being dropped on a large fire.

      Ok, it stopped the biggest flames, but since the blanket was never worked further, it left the entire firepit smoldering for four years, then R won and yesterday pulled the blanked off and poured a tank of petrol on the smouldering fire.

        Not like there wasn’t collision between Trump and Bibi so that the Dems couldn’t been seen to solve the Israel situation and have a lot of people angry of his policies vote for the orange arse instead.

      Whatever it finally is that gets the Republicans out, you can be assured the part that matters won’t be done by the Democrats.
