gak. just got an an email from the social security administration lauding how social security is secure because trump saved it. The federal government is throughyly entrumpified at this point.
So a day ending in y then? This guy has such a long rap sheet, if we had a functioning democracy, he'd be in prison for 3 lifetimes over.
And what are they doing about it?
What are the people not in power doing about the corruption of people who are in power? They're publishing a 55 page report outlining the corruption, can you not read?
The Democrats have consistently sat on their hands while doing nothing. They could have him arrested and charged with war crimes ir treason or endless other things, but they haven't. They could have impeached him. They haven't. They could have fought him down, they could have slowed him, they could have fought. Instead they've been wringing their hands, writing memos, and saying 'just you wait until we're elected!'
You very clearly have no idea what you're talking about. How would the democrats have the president arrested? By what mechanism other than full military coup would that be possible? They've impeached him multiple times. They have slowed and stalled and blocked, but 1000 cuts are hard to bandage, especially without any legal footing and an executive branch and supreme court that doesn't act in good faith. You know you can keep up with this stuff yourself. You can see exactly what declarations are being made and by who and what bills are being voted on and how each representative voted. Go see for yourself rather than listening to a bunch of propaganda meant to make us lose faith in our system manufacturing the consent of the people for it to be further dismantled.
What are you doing about it?
What are you doing about it, yonder pot?
I'm lobbying my government to cut ties with the US whenever possible.
Isn't lobbying just sending a strongly worded letter like you're complaining about now?
What's next? They start holding up their dated predictions after they've already happened? Fuckin' useless.
Huh.
I commented that it looked like the fair was just corruption and grift and it is. That makes sense.
At least he's acting American.
Kindly piss off.
Fuck off is more apropos, I feel. ✊🏼
That was my original comment but I toned it down. So completely agreed.
