Just like Donny.

You’ve got to be kidding me. I grew up in California during Newsom and Harris’ rise to power.

As uninspiring as they are, this approach has highlighted Trump’s ridiculous communication style in a way that has not been challenged to date.

We can dive into actual policy if you want.

He's a transphobe that would gladly put homeless people in a woodchipper.

Agreed that sicking the cops on homeless people is bad policy, and doing that in response to a court ruling without plan to actually help people is egregious. Does seem like he took an opportunity to disguise a NIMBY directive behind a court ruling.

Transphobe though? What he diverges on the specific issue of trans women/girls in gender protected sports divisions and we just have to throw out everything else he’s supported or signed laws for trans and gay rights in the last 20 years?

The thing is Transpeople in Sports is a distraction and by humoring it as a real issue he is playing to the cons

He literally invited Charlie Kirk to his podcast and agreed with him about transgender ideology being a problem. That's clear cut transphobia.

Nobody has challenged Trump's communication style before? Really??

A sitting governor doing carbon copy satire of Trump’s exact style? No that has not been done before to my knowledge.

Why in gods name would we need this? How is this helping? Can we not just be fucking serious for a second here?

Y'all were serious and Trump got elected via memes in 2016 lol

[–] zarkanian@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Yes, 4chan was the swing vote.

Because being a sane adult isn't a winning proposition since people who vote are also idiots?

Trying to go high and be an adult has accomplished exactly dick in 10 years.
