    nope, absolutely the fuck not. not only did we warn you the first time, you had four years of him as a leader HELD BACK BY OTHERS, and four years without him, and chose him again. that is truly unforgivable and the more you act like you were taken advantage of the angrier and more bitter i become.

    These fucking opportunistic grifters played their audiences like fools, and now want to distance themselves from the fallout they helped create?

    No. Fuck these idiots.

        Who? Trump or Rogan? Trump was much worse and had PEEP and hidden oxygen tanks in public. C19 increased his dementia.

        Rogan was hilarious when he ran to his walk-in medicine cabinet after months of saying it was no big deal.

    This article should be tagged NSFL because reading these cretins more or less claim no one could have possibly known what Trump was going to do nearly triggered a stroke and aneurysm in me.

      Well, yeah - it was a giant freakin’ mystery on account of how he kept saying what he was going to do. Also the party plan of hundreds of specific things he said he didn’t know anything about but that was a fucking lie? So confusing bro.

        It makes sense if you look at it from Trump’s financial backers Dark Enlightenment philosophy. It involves the mimetic theory of creating a scapegoat. So Trump dismantles democracy and triggers the collapse of the United States, is then scapegoated and removed by way of 25th amendment, then the Dark Enlightenment “Chosen One” JD Vance establishes the new patchwork of technomonarchy city-states from the ashes of civilization. Seems a bit rushed, I think they underestimated the amount of effort it would take to destroy the country.

          Yeah, though - counterpoint - trump couldn’t think his way out of a wet paper bag, and is famous for blurting out the exact crime he’s committing.

    “There’ll be people that they’ll DM me like, ‘You see what your boy’s doing? You voted for this.’ I’m like, ‘I voted for none of this,’” he said. “He’s doing the exact opposite of everything I voted for. I want him to stop the wars—he’s funding them. I want him to shrink spending, reduce the budget—he’s increasing it.”

    If only there was a way they could have seen this coming…

    Some kind of warning sign that trump was a fucking liar…

      It’s almost like we had 4 years with him already

      “Trump doesn’t keep his promises” rings hollow of an excuse for regret when we have 4 demonstrable years of his garbage.

        And that’s only if you ignore the 40 years before that of Trump being widely known as a scammer, swindler and liar.

        The first 4 were very different from how the second 4 are shaping up. This one is so much worse

        All the Biden Break did was normalize shit and hand a megaphone to anyone who thoughts Dems wouldn’t help us.

        “Blue no matter who” just depresses future turnout, Dem voters need to be excited about who theyre voting for, not scared of who they’re voting against.

        It’s basic bitch psychology. Neoliberals think like conservatives, and lack the empathy to understand the Dem voting base (or anyone for that matter) thinks differently.

          That’s because the Democrats are a conservative party. The US doesn’t have a true Left party because the Dems and the GOP rigged the system so only they can compete. Serious electoral reforms are needed. At a minimum, first past the post has got to be replaced by ranked choice, and the electoral college needs to be tossed.

            Also the Senate needs to be tossed. No taxation without equal representation.

      If only there was a way they could have seen this coming…

      Some kind of warning sign that trump was a fucking liar…

      What i’ve come to see recently is that basically, there’s two ways of knowing what will happen in the future: predicting it based on models of how things work, or trying it out experimentally.

      Now, to some people, making theoretical predictions is easier, while for others, doing the experiment is nicer. Ultimately, both lead (or, should lead) to the same result, but the experiment is more expensive and typically involves more suffering.

      But also the more often we do the experiment, the better our theoretical understanding of things gets, and the more likely it is that we don’t have to try things out experimentally in the future. So, it’s not for nothing. Consider it a learning experience for the broader population.

        It’s normal human variation…

        Imagine a fucking bear shows up, everyone runs to the cave and hides.

        An hour later no one hears the bear.

        One human thinks it’s fine and leaves the cave. He gets fucking ate. And of course it’s a “he” men are evolutionary wired to be more risky, we’re more disposable.

        Next week bear comes again, but everyone remember last week. So they wait 2 hours, first guy doesn’t get eaten so everyone comes out.

        Modern humans are protected, we don’t see people get ate by bears, even Covid, the worst happened behind closed doors only medical professionals saw.

        So our stupid monkey brains decide risk doesn’t matter, because we don’t see consequences.

        It’s like the end of Silicon Valley, it wasn’t enough to fail, they had to publicly get ripped apart by a metaphorical bear. So everyone else remembered and wouldn’t try.

        This trump term is that, unavoidable and unignorable consequences.

        So hopefully the idiots at least learn a lesson from it, cuz it’s already happening

    Yes they did. They got exactly what they bargained for. They’re just too fucking stupid to know it.
