@Gehenna after tonight's speech, do you have any insight you could add pertaining to Republicans in Congress working on getting stuff done to accomplish Trump's plans or anything like that? I guess I don't really know what specific question I'm wanting to ask of you, but you always seem like the guy who knows what's going on behind the scenes.
 
Someone said the dem’s are all stuck in the early 2000’s and that was so on point.
Even worse I think they're all stuck in 2015 and believe Woke is on the ascendant. Just one more John Oliver gotcha and they'll win the culture war. It's all about finding the right words or feels.
Same energy
She's right. She is not normal :smug:

This was pretty much like their reliving of the 2015 shoah. But worse, it was a full-on vindication of it. Trump is Trumper than ever, JD’s aura has gotten so insanely strong at one point he just stood up and that was enough for the dems to shut up and sit down, hell even Elon looks like he’s come into his own, rising and scanning the room, fully owning his well-earned moment. And the dems are just so broken. They were wrong, they tried to kill Trump, slipped and fell and died.

The dems just got raped, they have become the raped they are stuck in the rape crystal paradigm and will be until they go through years of theRAP(E)y and get the scars of being brutally raped by American people rejecting them and their cult.

They're not even doing these hysterical things because of their beliefs either, it's all to appeal to big donors and mentally ill city voters.

The only method they have is "make your enemy a social outcast." Their first and last idea is always "try to control what people can say via threats of social ostracism."

They look to people like John Stewart to find out what the acceptable ideas are (John Stewart will make a statement about how CRAZY Trump is, and his studio audience's reaction is the cue to viewers that everyone else cool thinks that as well)

Then they expect the cultural institutions (social media, colleges, corporations, banks) to enforce those ideas and punish anyone who doesn't toe the line.

Their current confusion and haplessness is because it's not working anymore. The "rules" aren't being enforced, the institutions are ignoring their screeching. Trump is calling transwomen men and getting away with it, even though John Stewart would never have allowed that! These people haven't actually argued with anyone in ten years, or examined their own beliefs. All they've done is smirk and ostracize. Now they're utterly lost.
 
Bernie is such a disingenuous bitchboy in his reply to the SOTU. He's;
- kvetching about how 'Trump said ONLY MILLIONS of the TENS OF MILLIONS of people on the SS rolls older than any human that ever lived were receiving SS payments. That is a lie.' How the fuck should you know? You're not the one auditing it.
-'Trump didn't address how poor people have some of the lowest life expectancies in the first world' He put RFK in position to see what was poisoning americans and fix it and stated as so in the speech.
-'Trump didn't address how housing is unaffordable' When you deport 20 million people suddenly maybe 8 or 10 million housing units will come available and lower prices, didn't think about that on purpose did you you communist lich? Nevermind how housing materials will lower in price when the increased lumber supply comes online in a few years.

I'm halfway through and I can't stand to listen to him any longer. 🎩

It is all they have left. They cannot moderate their stances because they gave so much ground to Trump by going so far left, if they moderated they would be taking Trump positions and that would cost them the crazies which is their core base. These are the vote blue no matter who retards that will show up to special elections and will crawl through hellfire to vote for some blue haired tranny for the schoolboard. Other than that they have no one else, they have no actual leadership and their whole platform for 8 years has been orange man bad, now that isn't working and they never expected the pendulum to swing this hard this fast and are completely caught in no man's land.
 
Bernie seems very mad in his response video
It’s red meat for his fans it’s literally all bark no bite and shows that he isn’t willing to compromise with trump on anything (without a massive humiliation ritual on trumps part and probably requiring a full betrayal of his voter base.) burnie got angry about nothing burgers and pipedreams that ironically are closer than ever after trump gutted usaid. If he wants collage aid forgiveness maybe he should petition trump to use some of the funding saved from usaid to directly relieve debt instead of lining the ngo pipelines pockets.

Their messaging is fucked they have 3 different retards giving responses to trumps speech all of which had different tones. Not that their unifying message wasn’t a disaster as well.
Edit sorry for the double post thread speed varies so much.
 
This really shows how out of touch they are. If that's what Booker took away from that whole thing, they're hopelessly lost. Even more than I could have imagined.
its crazy too because you know he's at least the 2nd or 3rd choice for the nomination come 2028. him and gavin will easily be the talk of the town until the first debates in late 2027, this guy's been a senator for 3 terms and this is what he came up with?

i'll keep saying it. they genuinely still think its 2012 and they're dealing with guys who don't know the internet exists and think Karl Rove's whiteboard is the height of technology. it should have been obvious this would be caught, especially with that sinclair video that went viral a long time ago. And this is much easier to see.
The Democrats we have are just as bad as anywhere else,
except thats not true, they've been gunning for texas for decades florida is just as deep red, and IIRC way more red but because of reputations people forget it. florida has been a republican trifecta for almost 30 years with a mostly 2/3rds control state government. Texas meanwhile gets slightly bluer every year.
we went from reports from Axios that Crockett was going to chuck eggs at Trump
judging by the athletic skills of democrats where their median age is 60 and their median BMI is 50 i'd say that trying to chuck eggs at trump would have just led to a lot of eggs landing everywhere but trump and then a pithy reply.
black culture is literally all about grifting. The only way a black will respect you is if you don’t let them fuck you over. Notice I didn’t say ”the only way they respect you is if you fuck them over back”. This is a common mistake- it’s only a one-way street to them. Combine that with the kangism and unearned cultural cachet, they also have the insane unwarranted superiority complex of the oven dodgers. They’re like the worst qualities of gypsies and kikes combined, with the added fun of randomly chimping out and committing murder.
its shocking but true.
Someone said the dem’s are all stuck in the early 2000’s and that was so on point. The Jon Stewart behavior (where instead of saying something funny or smart you just make an “oh BROTHER” face to the camera. I’m surprised I didn’t see anyone puff their cheeks or do that circling the finger around the temple or ear ”cuh-razy!!” thing
and honestly that worked in the 2000s because they had control. its like in the office, Jim just had to do that face to the camera because everyone knew he was better than Dwight, if he was on equal footing or was in the wrong that shit backfired hard. a great example of that in the office is with the whole charles saga, He just looked like a fucking asshole.

Its like bullying, you can get away with whatever you want and not have to respect your victim if the people around you agree, if they don't you look like a crazy person. Its like i said somewhere else, going "republicans are weird" was a great killshot that could be used against republicans for a very long time. But going "republicans are weird" while also supporting trannies and grifting niggers and every other freak makes you look insane to any rational person. that quote "Your boos mean nothing, I’ve seen what makes you cheer" sums this up perfectly.

Everyone sees the democrats have no clothes and its impossible to win back that trust they had in the days before the internet turned on them. The crazy part is that this was always inevitable as long as there was free speech on the internet, which is why they started clamping down once hilary was getting into power.

Everyone seems to admit it and its now written in the history books but Elon owning X and TikTok thriving really shut down a lot of the strangle the left had on the media. talking points that used to only be on /pol/ in 2017 suddenly were the norm to everyone under 30 come 2024.

The left has gotten so blatantly crazy and has lost so much control on the media since 2020 that even the vice president who wasn't a fan of trump in 2020 is now guarantied to go further than trump in 4 years. I've seen smarter boomers say its like a modern reboot of the reagan era. 4 years of carter were so fucking bad that it led to 12 years of GOP control while the left was fractured beyond repair and all the crazes slowly lost power. it took someone on the left who was about as right wing as the guy Carter won against for the left to get back in power.

I 100% believe whatever white guy they pick come 2036 will 1. admit trump was right on a lot of things and 2. have the exact policies Trump had in 2016 at minimum. Trump was very hilariously moderate in his first time on the troon question and other issues. illegal immigration is fucking dead in this country. as is the "free trade" era.

While that’s all true i meant that for the first time Bernie actually seems mad and upset. Which is new for him.
