They. Don't. Care.
Republicans have become a fascist cult.
They literally tried to overthrow our democracy.
It's insane that we're treating them as anything less than a modern Nazi party.
Ribbit
12 people sitting at a table with one Nazi = 13 Nazis. Don't negotiate with terrorists.
Problem is anyone with any capacity to hear this has been listening since 2016, and everyone else is... well deaf doesn't really cover it. Is there a condition where your ears grow inside out and become megaphones that blare circus music?
Pretty sure you can see that in the animated parts of Monty Python
The butt trumpets are a more accurate analogy, too.
He has been signaling for years now and all of a sudden you think people will listen and take action??
No. Of course not.
We are going to let happen whatever happens and then pretend like there were no warning signs.
"How could we have known?" -- clueless people.
They are listening; that's the problem. I've disconnected from almost my entire family because Trump has reached Dear Leader status with them, and you can't have a normal conversation anymore without insane levels of hate and nonsense being injected into the conversation.
The people at this level aren't living in reality. They like what they hear.
Is it just me? I feel like I could hear him better if he were, you know, in jail.
Know your enemy. We need to know the crap that people are hearing and thinking "yeah, he speaks for me."

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!
