Absolutely nothing is more urgent than ending the Trump regime.

And this proves you're blue MAGA. It's all just a sports game to you.

You want Trump out just for the sake of having Trump out. There's no plan beyond that. There's no accountability beyond that. It's all just "get their guy out and my guy in." Your goal isn't to exact certain policy goals, as otherwise that would be your number one priority. Personally, if Trump pulled a reverse Fetterman tomorrow, had a stroke, and suddenly became progressive, I wouldn't want him out of office. Getting him out is a means to an end, not an end in itself.

And this proves that you were a very slippery baby. Meanwhile, I'll keep my elbows up.

Jesus H Fucking Christ. You are stating a goal that every human with empathy should have.

There's no plan beyond that.

Close the Concentration Camps. Prosecute the Epstein Class. Hunter down and prosecute all ICE agents. Smash Palantir. Smash Data centers. Implement universal Healthcare.

Speak for your own limited lack of vision.

There's no accountability beyond that. It's all just "get their guy out and my guy in."

The goal is to put an end to a fascist regime, instead of letting it gain momentum. Holy fuckity fuck you're extra comfy with the status quo.

Your goal isn't to exact certain policy goals, as otherwise that would be your number one priority.

Stopping fascism. The fascism, and the act of stopping it. Op stay the ascism fay.

My number one priority is stopping fascism.

That thing that I want again: stopping fascism.

Personally, if Trump pulled a reverse Fetterman tomorrow, had a stroke, and suddenly became progressive, I wouldn't want him out of office. Getting him out is a means to an end, not an end in itself.

When the time to act decisively comes, just stay out of the way.
