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
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.
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.
r/conservative actually is appalled by this, and his statement that Zelensky is a dictator who started the war
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.
