I think the "deeply troubling " part of Trump is that he's a megalomaniacal moron. Call me an insurrection denier, but that was just a bunch of idiots without a plan. Were you truly concerned these yahoos with bear spray were going to overthrow the American government? I'd say they had a worse chance than those student protests do for stopping a war, and that's not looking good.andyman wrote: Wed May 08, 2024 5:24 am I can't believe he's being allowed on the ballot after the insurrection. I know the supreme court's republican controlled now, but is that not deeply, deeply troubling?
Regardless of their prep or capability, they technically attacked the government at his direction, violating the gd constitution. He may be a moron, but this is about a bigger issue: the integrity of the wider government and whether they'll actively enforce the fundamental rules of the country (which is ironic as they spend so much time arguing against anything else that might violate it - gun control, abortion..).zorg wrote: Wed May 08, 2024 7:10 amI think the "deeply troubling " part of Trump is that he's a megalomaniacal moron.

Back in my day idiots had a little dignity to them. They'd go and see Bruce Springsteen and make bovine noises and not understand the lyrics, but they were sweet natured. You'd try to stop them running into harm. These modern idiots though, jesus wept. Watching a loudmouthed man vocalising his intrusive thoughts and thinking this is a political colossus, then supporting him with such a banner.losthighway wrote: Wed May 08, 2024 7:56 am Have you guys seen the "Real Men Wear Diapers" banner/rally pics.
https://t.co/aFm4jcGe0NWho was actually in charge? Nobody knew. But surely someone was in charge? And surely there must be a plan, since surely this situation could not endure? I heard these questions posed at cocktail parties on the coasts but also at MAGA rallies in Middle America. There emerged a comical overlap between the beliefs of the nation’s most elite liberal Biden supporters and the beliefs of the most rabid and conspiratorial supporters of former President Trump. Resistance or QAnon, they shared a grand theory of America in 2024: There has to be a secret group of high-level government leaders who control Biden and who will soon set into motion their plan to replace Biden as the Democratic presidential nominee. Nothing else made sense. They were in full agreement.
