So, What DO the Republicans do now...

They can't, though, can they?

If liberals admit that the system isn't working for most Americans they have to shift the messaging of the entire party. Either they shift right and basically co-sign the fascist narrative of the GOP or they shift left and tacitly concede that the left flank of the party that they've been hostile to for the past 8 years was right all along.

You can't do that and still make the case that you deserve to be running the party instead of handing the keys to said left flank.

Admitting it will not do a damn thing about the reason it's broken and that's that the greed that drives more money into the wealthiest people's accounts at the expense of the rest of the country will never be stopped. ever. Liberal, Conservative, whatever. The REAL money in this country owns the rest of it and the politicians aren't elected, they're hired to make policies and regulate/deregulate in their favor, not ours. Not our benefit.

That's why Trump won. Billionaires bought that election. Trump will do everything he can to put more money in their pockets, whether he does it by design or not. He's too fucking stupid to NOT do that.

So, what?? Tell me HOW is SoT any different from what we have now??

At the end of this 4 years, people are going to be NO better off, and this is another transfer of wealth, and the middle class will not be a part of it, and NONE of these idiots that voted for him understand what they did.

And that's the biggest reason why I keep saying Nero is fiddling.... and people feeding the fire are dancing, drunk with faux joy over what they thin they've done but they're going to find out. - and they'll still exonerate him because he'll tell them to

Wall Street "all in" on Kamala Harris.

 
The issue with republicans is they have no idea what to do now. Actual policy fixes isn't their game. They air grievances, but can't actually fix anything. And that's evident by cronyism cabinet appointments and very short sighted policy changes that hurt everyone, but it sounds good on the surface to the base.

Not to mention 4 years in his first term of Trump not fixing a damn thing and only making things worse than when he took office

Trump was a do-nothing president until really his last year, when we had a pandemic and he somehow made it worse.

Followed by his abhorrent actions after he lost the election.

But as a country, we decided that was better than having a black woman as president. One that was held to the highest of standards while trump was held to none

Democrats had the opportunity to support her in 2020 when she was running for the top of the ticket in the primaries.

Why weren't DEMOCRATS supporting "a black woman?"

Thankfully your authoritarian felon got elected, and you don’t need to worry about those pesky democrats anymore. So, go be an obedient follower and go be amongst your people elsewhere. Why, troll people who don’t like you??

Because Biden had a better chance to win, which he did. Why do you think 2020 has anything to do with 2024?

Dems nominated a black man and a white woman. And now, a biracial woman.

Republicans nominated a traitorous felon.

Again, any idea why DEMOCRATS didn't support Kamala in 2020? Biden was already showing signs of being less than competent at that time. If Kamala were this great candidate, why did she end up dropping out?

You're suggesting the whole country should've supported her in 2024 when DEMOCRATS didn't support her (or even come close!) in 2020.

Makes no sense.

BTW there's no reason to dislike people just because they hold an opposing political view. I like plenty of liberals. They just have this political blind spot and they're ultra-jabbed.
 
"Kill yourself" posts are a form of a threat of violence and not tolerated here.

This is a stupid argument. 2020 and 2024 are two completely different elections with different agendas on the ballots. And not all Liberals are "ultra-jabbed". I know more that aren't, other than the original vaccines

HipKat: "You should hang yourself"

ICR: "You should shoot yourself"


Weird how one of these is acceptable and the other was posted by a queer person who the first person wants dead

Because that's the core of reactionary politics. It has nothing to do with any sort of positive vision for the world. It's mass-scale oppositional defiant disorder.

Ohh I don’t disagree with you at all, about almost anything. My new book is even more informative than I expected. It’s literally proving your point you were making years ago how the internet is a breeding ground for recruitment for Republicans for their far right extremism…

The problem is, it’s the neoliberal agenda that provided them the avenues.. yet they shit on democrats and liberals as if they are the problem.

I will continue to educate myself, and call them out. I just have to learn to do it in a productive manner.
