Trump’s “deep state” is simply the observation that some government employees don’t come and go with the administration nor answer directly to him.

The worst part about all of this is that even if Biden wins, we still have to continue sharing a country with all the crazy people who would literally and enthusiastically support a Trump dictatorship, which is apparently 40% of the population.

This. This is what the Republicans party truly ‘stand for’ — destroying anything that isn’t with ‘them’ ie radical, violent, extremist tribalism. Whether a Republican *voter* agrees with it is irrelevant — they are voting in support of this behavior and ideology. So, now, should we extend the Golden Rule to you in…

Bidan should appoint an AG that will look into the money laundering and foreign connections. Which should get most of the GOP removed from the Senate.

Assuming Biden wins, I favor a scorched earth policy. Let loose the DOJ to investigate and indict anyone and everyone throughout the government for all of the shady and and illegal things they did have ever done. Insider trading, favorable contracts, destroying official documents, everything. Moscow Mitch had shady…

Fuck you Bobby Kotick you dumpster of urine soaked jizz rags. I hope you and Mitch McConnell spend an eternity eating each others scab encrusted asses in the afterlife.

i actually expected to see a lot more bipartisan donations for that exact reason, but most of these are straight ticket contributions.

Yep, Nathan, just two elderly men, no difference between them, no reason to go vote or anything...

That’s actually better than I thought it would be.

Fucking RIGHT?

There is a report out on USA Today showing that Coronavirus numbers are spiking in areas two weeks after a Trump has a rally. This was happening this summer when numbers were dropping across the country; and it’s much worse as numbers have started to increase. In some places they’ve had 68% increases in infections two…

Yet another example of the Trump administration actively sabotaging critical social systems to save face about how much of a dumpster fire his administration is but also how much of a dumpster fire Trump himself is.

300,000 dead and people still want to vote for Trump.

If you still vote for McDonald Trump after shit like this than you are a truly terrible person.

Correct. I think a few different things should be done to strengthen elections nationally (which will have the knock-on effect of mitigating GOP system-gaming):

Yeah, but Russia was responsible for a lot of anti-Hillary posts across social media. A lot of the false reasons that people voted for Trump were based on lies spread by Russia troll farms.

If the Democrats grab the WH and both congressional houses, we need to get rid of the Electoral system, plain and simple.

True enough, but the problem with Magnum Force is that it makes no sense; the 'execution squad' motorcycle cops are essentially doing the same thing that Harry does, only they're more ambitious. And Harry doesn't even have a convincing counterargument to use against them; instead, the movie just wants us to accept…

The fascism line isn't just about police states. It's about the idea that due process basically exists to help criminals, the old "if you are innocent you have nothing to hide" bit.

Magnum Force was pretty clearly trying to compensate for the ridiculous ugliness of Dirty Harry but like… Kael wasn't wrong. John Milius is a literal irl fascist, and pretty much everything that is as Milius-y as Dirty Harry's actual plot is going to have a lot of fascism in it.
