The one benefit of Vance replacing Trump is that he doesn’t have a cult like Trump does.

Not in my head.

Historians have a word for Germans who joined the Nazi party, not because they hated Jews, but out of a hope for restored patriotism, or a sense of economic anxiety, or a hope to preserve their religious values, or dislike of their opponents, or raw political opportunism, or convenience, or ignorance, or greed.

That word is “Nazi.” Nobody cares about their motives anymore.

They joined what they joined. They lent their support and their moral approval. And, in so doing, they bound themselves to everything that came after. Who cares any more what particular knot they used in the binding?

If you know you’re about to get replaced by RFK I’m a few months, how do you even get up in the morning, much less try to do your job?

I’m sorry but I just don’t buy that. They don’t have time to talk to anyone who’s actually paying attention? They can’t take ten minutes over the course of several months (for Harris) or years (for Trump) to listen to the candidates speak and see which one can speak in coherent sentences?

No, they’re just too stubborn to listen to anyone who tells them anything other than what they want to hear. Or too racist to vote for a Black person, too sexist to vote for a woman, too brainwashed to ever vote for a Democrat, etc.

He’ll probably respond with more military aid.

We got mad because he was obviously lying.

He also has no reason not to appease them, and he’s known for being willing to sign anything that’s put in front of him.

Better to try than to do nothing.

More like a quarter.

By blocking any kind is aid to then. In other words, killing them.

Gaza was the reservation. I’ll be very surprised if Israel doesn’t kill them all.

The real nightmare is the kerning.

Not even close, by many orders of magnitude.

Fuck that guy in particular for making us think he was cool.

Man, we’re getting close to the point where the release a game at the same time as its remaster.

Not the economy, but “the economy”, i.e. corporate profits.

Also what I was taught in US Spanish classes.

Suicide prevention is so threatening!
