  3. You are encouraged to provide a link back to the source of your screen capture in the body of your post.
  4. Current politics and news are allowed, but discouraged. There MUST be some kind of human commentary/reaction included (either by the original poster or you). Just news articles or headlines will be deleted.

“Do you know why people don’t like liberals? Because they lose. If liberals are so fucking smart, how come they lose so god damn always?” - Will MacAvoy, Newsroom

Imagine having 4 years to prepare

With all the state apparatus behind them announcing day and night that Trump was "literally the worst human bean ever"

Basically all the universities and all the highly educated population by their side

With massive approval from their voter base

With huge sums of money for propaganda in the private media.

With all the considerably large powers of the current executive

Able to pass laws

Able to influence worldwide political movements to bash their opposition at any time through grants

Able to start or stop wars worldwide should the need arise

And they still lost to Trump LMAO 🤣

Democrats lost the 2024 election in the 2020 election. Biden was a moderate that solved nothing, making poor white people angrier.

The only ways to make poor white people less angry will make billionaires angry.

All because they were unwilling to admit that the working class is struggling and that they were complicit in a genocide.

They've run against him three times, and lost more than half the time. Who wants to bet they'll win in four years when Trump decides to ignore the Constitution and run again?

It was a weird thing to say at the time since liberals (meaning Democrats in their use) have had plenty of presidencies and even weirder to say now that they just had a presidency. People must be absolutely seething at Marxist and anarchists by that metric.
