    And, since Trump‘s reelection, he absolutely loved Trump. Which is really fucked, because 10 years ago:

      I do actually have (some, rapidly eroding) pity for the people that fox has brainwashed into acting against their own interests by preying on their fear.

      Lindsey graham understood exactly what trump was and he decided to sell us all out anyway.

          This is, unfortunately, what happens when you disconnect from electoral politics and let the dumbest among us determine our leader.

          It's sad really

          Inb4 VoTe hArDeR, as if not voting would have solved this problem and isn’t actually the cause of the problem we are right now.

          Vote with your heart in the primary and vote with your head in the general. Taking your ball and going home when you don’t like the options available don’t delegitimize the election, it only makes it easier for the team you hate to win over the party you only dislike. And, as we can see, letting the party of ‘get fucked, poor’ win means we all suffer.

      This was when he thought Trump was telling the truth about “no new wars.” The evil bastard was scared he wouldn’t get to keep the murder machine running.

        This was 10 years ago, long before the “no more wars“ bullshit. Trump didn’t start that up until after he left office and someone pointed out that he didn’t happen to start any wars while he was in office the first time, and he leveraged that into a campaign slogan for his next run for office

        But I understand… It all seems to run together now
