is there anyone who thinks this is about the ballroom and not the Hitler Home bunker underneath in case he can't escape to argentina when the people come for him
Don't give those classless tactless amoral parasites a name like that. It's too dignified for the likes of them- the party who constantly mislabels their opponents as the democRAT party, simply because saying it that way means it ends with the word RAT.
They are and always have been the terrorist-right. Traitors and domestic terrorists intent on sabotaging the american government and undermining the rule of law, simply to lie, cheat, rape murder and steal with impunity. They are our enemy.
til there's nobody left but the wealthy and white / ballroom republicans and their stepford wives / and anybody who isn't is going to die / that is the goal of Project 2025
You know the ballroom is a place where old men dance with young women. They have to build it, there is a secret elevator for the president bedroom . Remember Epstein island is too far away
And they don't mind your children starving to death to get what they want. This is the messaging every Dem needs to take on in the next election cycle. The centrists wanna "reach across the aisle"? Cool. The people over there are dumb, scared prey animals who act on instinct alone. You can't reach them with facts or reasoning, only with threats of impending doom and the salvation you can provide to them. Then you have to actually DO what the Regressive party won't do: make things better.
Ballroom Republicans, the Epstein Class, Pedo Protectors, the inflation administration, Trumpy tariffs -- repeating these kinds of names is their tactic (Dumocrats, socialists, politically correct), and it will be effective on the same people, those interested in easy answers and not complex examinations of issues.
So definitely keep using them. Let these live rent-free in their voters' minds.
It will be interesting if he lives long enough to see the work completed. Who will attend these “lavish events”. He can’t get anyone to play at the 250 celebration. It will be him, his kids and the rest of the ass lickers that work for him
Hiding somewhere in the White House won't change the fact that, come January 20th, shortly after 12:00pm, large armed men will drag him out by his collar while the new president looks on somberly.
As an abuse survivor it frustrates me to see so many people not understand that you can't shame toxic/evil people into being better people by telling them things they are proud of or feel good about. That's like trying to get a kid who won't stop kicking dogs to stop by giving him candy each time he kicks a dog. Then being confused that he still won't stop kicking dogs.
Not when it does exponentially more harm than good. I should know, given that I have suffered catastrophic harm as a result of people going with this "solution" because they didn't want to put in the effort to do things that would actually help.
Even without my testimony it should be painfully obvious it doesn't work. Otherwise we wouldn't be in the mess we're currently in. The bad guys would have all been stopped generations ago instead of things devolving to concentration camps on US soil.
I realize that was probably sarcasm, but at what point did it seem like a good idea to hurl abuse towards someone who has just told you they are an abuse survivor?
Hate to break it to you: We few old-school Republicans old enough to have voted for McCain, but young enough to recognize the stupidity of R party clowns who slandered him as a "RINO" for the last 20 years of his career... We knew the truth long ago. McCain went to his grave excoriating Trump as the biggest threat to the Republic at least since McCarthyism, if not since the Civil War. Get this straight: Actual McCain supporters, have long since ceased calling ourselves "Republicans" at all.
If your response to an abuse survivor pointing out that a certain behavior is among the most common and easily identifiable tactics of abusers across the globe is to insult them and claim they don't know what they're talking about, then that makes you an abusive jackass. If you can't exert the nearly nonexistent level of effort it takes to be an even remotely decent person then do the world a favor and never speak again.
WTF are you babbling about? All abusers do NOT act exactly the same and it's NOT helpful to pretend like they do just to simplify the conversation or keep someone's feelings from being hurt. I'm an abuse survivor myself so keep your pathetic efforts to White Knight this to yourself, I've done nothing wrong with pointing out an obvious truth
Fuck off. If you're an abuse survivor then you should know FAR better than most people how wrong it is to tell abuse survivors they don't know anything about the abuse they have endured. So the fact that you choose to spout crap like that means you are an abuser yourself.
The point of calling them this or any other thing isn't to shame them into being better; it's well understood that won't happen. It's to let the voting Publix not to forget the kind of bullshit priorities such elected officials have.
Speaking from decades of firsthand experience dealing with toxic people: it doesn't work. Otherwise we wouldn't be in this mess, because people would have realized they needed to vote monsters like these out generations ago.
All this is is people wanting a zero effort "solution" that makes them feel like they did something to help, but without actually doing anything remotely helpful. It is ultimately a self-destructive strategy because it just enables evil people to do more evil.
The only thing toxic people respond to is consequences. They view everyone other than themselves as sub-human, so they don't give a shit how their actions make you feel. They revel in making others suffer because it makes themselves feel powerful. The only time they stop is if they are facing immediate consequences that would severely inconvenience them (prison, losing their job, business failing due to boycott, etc). And even then they will only stop for as long as that threat hangs over them.
I think you underestimate the number of people who have next to no memory when it comes to what they know about any given candidate. Not to mention the number of people who will let go of 1 or 2 things they dislike about a candidate if there's other things they think would benefit them.
Bottom line is that if the voting Publix was exactly as you believe them to be, that is, that every single person who voted for Trump for example would never vote for anyone different, then what's the point
Anymore. With that thinking you've essentially given up and there's no point in trying to win over any voters anymore.
I'll repeat myself, I think you severely underestimate the number of people who vote on what they most often or recently heard about this or that candidate, not a super strict set of beliefs they hold on to for dear life. Hello, Hillary lost in good part because the last thing people heard was the investigation
Have you been living under a rock? For the past several generations Conservatives have been doing progressively worse and more evil things. Nobody has been kicking them from office, because too many people want to believe that it's enough to just mock them and call that good enough.
If the strategy you're pushing actually worked, then these monsters would have been gone GENERATIONS ago, but they aren't. And that's because your strategy doesn't work.

Look at all the people explaining reality to you. Must be a great feeling. And it really shows they understand your point.

Well, I think when you go on kicking dogs, sooner or later you’re going to get a bite taken out of your butt.

Lets take it in a different direction. I don't expect you to have all the answers, but what do you think would be a better way of going about it?

The only thing toxic people respond to is consequences. They view everyone other than themselves as sub-human, so they don't give a shit how their actions make you feel. They revel in making others suffer because it makes themselves feel powerful.

And even then they will only stop for as long as that threat hangs over them.

Agreed. I am not against extreme consequences for this awfulness. If they revel in it, let them get it right back.
