There is no lack of ambition on the part of Repubs.

[Billiejeens]

There's too much self-interest and not enough self-sacrifice. We've become spoiled, complacent, apathetic, and disengaged at a time when we need to be more vigilant than ever about keeping a hold on what has been achieved from those who mean to take it away.

But those are your people.
Easy, they are going to stop emailing you the talking points.

While the blob is obsessed with removing graffiti, Biden was busy being president and tending to the actual duties of his office.

Did you see inflation is still going up...it’s higher now than when the blob took office.

Biden had it under control.
Your blob, not so much.

Good news on getting rid of the grafiti though....that’s gonna make a huge difference. LOL

..........is wildly unpopular with a majority of Americans. No matter, the regime forges ahead with a plan to turn the politics of the New Deal in to the Old Deal. Gutting environmental protections and advancements in minority representation, restricting access to abortions, illegally blocking admission to asylum seekers, gerrymandering its way to power, illegally trying to repeal birthright citizenship, and using illegal means to deport immigrants.

Whether it’s popular or not is irrelevant. What IS relevant is whether it’s Right for the country (not the citizens - the COUNTRY) or not; and I would suggest that most of what Project 2025 espouses IS good and right for this country. Strip the religious crap out. Add a more isolationist fiscal policy and cut looks pretty damn good.

The fax machine in the basement is working overtime, for sure. He must have absolutely nothing else to do.

Fax machine?

How old are you?

 

[ColonelAngus]

Wow. That's was really weak.

When you got nothing, move on to personal attacks.

It is so played out.

You can see that Biden was losing cognitive function rapidly….SO THAT MEANS YOU HAVE A TRUMP FETISH!

These people just lie.

 

[Lesh]

When dems in CA have to scratch and claw for votes I would say the party is over.... really....

You would say a lot of shit

You didn't know that lefties use them to get their daily marching orders?

Now you're just being deliberately obtuse.

Boy, I hope it's only one generation.

And throughout all of this, he's convinced his flock that when HE wins, THEY win. They still think they're getting something real out of the collapse of our institutions.

Hope and Change, eh comrade?

Where is my Obama phone?

Obama is gonna pay my mortgage.

America Broke Something When It Gave Trump a Second Chance​

The Heritage Foundation’s “Mandate for Leadership: The Conservative Promise” — popularly known as Project 2025 — was much more than a wish list of conservative policy preferences. It was much more, even, than a blueprint for a second Trump administration.

Project 2025 was, above all, a statement of values and a theory of governance. Its authors did not simply want to move national policymaking to the right. They wanted to use the authority of the executive branch to impose a new regime on the United States.

“We are in the process of the second American Revolution,” declared Kevin Roberts, president of the Heritage Foundation, the summer before the 2024 election. This revolution, he added, “will remain bloodless if the left allows it.” Russell Vought, who leads the Office of Management and Budget and was, like Roberts, a key architect of Project 2025, also spoke publicly about the need for a “radical constitutionalism” and a tribune-like president who would dismantle the New Deal state, sell the scrap and return the nation to the status quo ante of the 19th century.

Much of the disruption and destruction of the past year and change is downstream of the revolutionary orientation of Roberts, Vought and the other alumni of Project 2025 who have taken up places in and around the Trump administration. To observe the aggrandizement of power in the executive, the decimation of the federal bureaucracy, the destruction of much of the nation’s medical, scientific and public health infrastructure and the broad attack on racial and gender equality is to see the many faces of a furious effort to restructure the existing nation to match the one envisioned by these far-right ideologues.

Lincoln would know how to deal with these Republicans.

To the extent polls can be believed, the agenda trump has forced on America, despite claiming he knew nothing of it (and hiring one of its main architects).............

'I have nothing to do with Project 2025,' Trump says​

WATCH: ‘I have nothing to do with Project 2025,’ Trump says

Former President Donald Trump denied any connection to Project 2025, the handbook for a new conservative government written by the Heritage Foundation and several right-wing think tanks, in his Sept. 10 debate with Vice President Kamala Harris.

..........is wildly unpopular with a majority of Americans. No matter, the regime forges ahead with a plan to turn the politics of the New Deal in to the Old Deal. Gutting environmental protections and advancements in minority representation, restricting access to abortions, illegally blocking admission to asylum seekers, gerrymandering its way to power, illegally trying to repeal birthright citizenship, and using illegal means to deport immigrants.

The degree to which Americans push back against these immoral, unconstitutional, unwanted, and dangerous initiatives may define what kind of country we have for the next 50 years. If the pushback is not methodical, effective, and severe the US will become unrecognizable as the beacon of liberal democracy to the world it has been for 250 years.

Beat the most qualified candidate in history, the first time he ran for office.

wildly unpopular with a majority of Americans.

And Republicans couldn't care less, consistent with the right's desire to establish the tyranny of Republican minority rule.

 

[hadit]

There has always been a Leninist component to Trumpism. The whole idea behind Trumpism is to bring down the system which was exactly what the Leninist accomplished to the incipient Russian Republic in 1917 before the on-set of the Soviet State.

Trumpists want a deconstruction of the American state and to reformulate it for the aggrandizement of a single individual. I mean we have never had a president who was so hell bent on creating a cult of personality.

True Americans need to push back against this abuse of power. Trump will attempt to rig and cheat in the upcoming elections but will be thwarted by the will of the people to get this country on the right track in the next elections.

It will take a generation to fix the damage Trumpism has inflicted on this nation and the reputation of the American nation.

• Judicial Overhaul

A personal success in that he put extremists who defend him on the bench. But he is supposed to be working for all of us, not himself.

 

[berg80]

And Republicans couldn't care less, consistent with the right's desire to establish the tyranny of Republican minority rule.

They've been incredibly successful in that pursuit, in part by wielding power ruthlessly when they have it. A perfect example being we would not have the SC ruled by extremist right wing ideologues were it not for McTreason's unforgivable acts of duplicity.

After they find out how many votes they need to beat the republican challengers.... then the counting will be over... they will suddenly find a stack of ballots someplace....
