  • Damn. After all this time.

    “That can’t be real. right?”

    Of course it’s real. Of course it is.

    The comments on Twitter/X were about what you’d expect, although many were too graphic to be posted here:

    “Trying to make sure the campaign has a happy ending.”

    “These are the book banning folks, right.”

    “Evidently, Donald Trump’s final campaign message is ‘Hawk Tuah!’”

    “There is something seriously wrong with this person. He’s willing to do or say ANYTHING to get some applause from his sycophantic cult.”

    “He finally found something that consents.”

    “Tomorrow the press headlines will be: Trump has technical difficulties but gives rousing speech.”




  • Gingrich, who cheated on his second wife, then held Democrats responsible for America’s moral degeneration. “I mean, what kind of a totally amoral, corrupt, sick system have the Democrats developed? If you think about it at that level, it is astonishing, the decay," he said, before claiming that the “decay” is why Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who reportedly maintained at least three romantic liaisons outside of his marriage with Cheryl Hines, left the Democratic Party and endorsed former President Donald Trump.

    Also Gingrich didn’t deliver that on stage anywhere. I’m getting pissed at headline images that intentionally don’t have to do with the quote.




  • Correct. And ALSO - Remember People: This is A LONG GAME. Involving aircraft-carrier-sized loads of bullshit, marches, protests, idiot right-wing news articles, plenty of disinformation panic buttons and many, many, many court cases to wade through.

    We’ll be lucky if the contest is officially decided by December without the SCROTUS stepping in and calling it for trump just because.

    Point being: don’t expect it to be quick even if early numbers are good. They know they’re going to lose early numbers; that’s not their plan. Their plan is cheating, obfuscation, spreading FUD, and more cheating, plus a liberal (haha) smattering of corruption. Fake electors, proud boys, gravy seals, dipshit FBI and DoD people - it’s a goddamned army of fascist bastards attacking Democracy. And we have to understand that IS what’s going to happen so we can weather it and defeat them.

    As usual we will get no help, or very compromised ‘help’, from the corporate news.
