I'm not sure about that! Don't see any evidence of that from where I'm sitting.

They will agree Trump is an idiot but quickly change the conversation to how Democrats are Even Worse.

Got into it at a coin show recently:

"Democrats eat babies, are Satanist, globalists, shadow-government elite that trump is saving us from!": said the Coin Dealer.

I wish I was doing hyperbole... I really wish that I was...

You cannot identify idiocy if you are an idiot.

It boggles my mind that people honestly think things would be worse if Harris won.

Pretty much everything that is worse because of decisions that Trump made.

I think Kamala would have been a terrible President but immeasurably better than Trump. She wasn’t openly, brazenly corrupt and self dealing nor an authoritarian with little interest in actual governing or the good of the nation he leads.

She wouldn't have been any better/worse than biden. Things would have improved, but not quickly or dramatically enough to threaten anyone in power or to expand the shrinking middle class. Still would have been better than the actually harmful option we ended up with though.

You need to lay off right wing media. It's seriously warped your perception of the world.

You unironically think my comment was by someone thinking "right wing media" is worth listening to?

I literally said Trump's was always gonna fuck every working adult over, and you think that's the opinion of someone listening to right wing media?

Straight up, are you retarded?

Or just so politically captured you either entirely forgot her speeches? Or just never listened to them?

Re:Imposing Sanctions on the International Criminal Court by tstrimple on Friday October 09, 2026 @03:16PM (#50025365)
Yeah, it takes right wing brain rot to come up with "Camela Harris" and "Democrats seem to mostly run on literal socialism right now". Deeply unserious takes from the most stupid people in humanity.
Re:Imposing Sanctions on the International Criminal Court by ffsm8 on Friday October 09, 2026 @04:15PM (#50026042)
And it takes someone mentally challenged or with a serious reading comprehension issue to not realize those are unrelated observations.

Camela Harris did not run on literal socialism, nor did I ever claim she did.

You have current democrat identifying and - on camera - calling themselves socialist.

And Camela Harris has - on camera - during her campaign - repeatedly blamed "white people" in every event where she catered to people of color...

It is astounding you don't even have the mental capacity to realize how fucked up that is without pulling in imaginary boogeymans and playing up political divide... Against a person who's not American and has voted parties on the far left on all elections I've taken part in.

So yeah, I consider you straight up retarded after these interactions.

This chain is interactions beautifully encapsulates why Americas political left is completely lost. They're just lashing out non stop, blaming everyone for their own bad decisions etc

You have UNDER HALF of Americans forcing MORE THAN HALF of Americans to pay steep tariffs to trade with their universally well-regarded neighbour across the US's northern border. Between the two groups, the more-than-half are the ones most impacted by the tariffs against Canada. Given how libertarian many Americans claim to be, a break-up of the US is now imminent. The world will end up better.

> a break-up of the US is now imminent.

There is no way this is happening. The logistics alone will be killer and as bad as things are, there is nothing that would be gained by this that would be worth the pain it would cause.

To the extent that there are geographic differences, it is not between red states and blue states, but rural vs. urban. Even in texas the major cities almost all go blue.

If by "UNDER HALF" you mean who voted for him then I don't know what you are talking about. Trump won the electoral AND the popular vote. And don't go counting non voters as against Trump.

By every metric the US wanted Trump and they got Trump.
