    Unfortunately “We aren’t Donald Trump” wasn’t a winning strategy two of the three times they tried it.

    I wonder what two terrible choices we are gonna have in 2028. Watch it be like fuckin Nancy Pelosi with an exoskeleton holding her up vs Dan Crenshaw who will have replaced his eye patch with a gun by then.

      And, remember, it almost didn’t even work the second time. Biden was the only candidate running for the nomination poised to lose to Trump and he was forced on us, seemingly as punishment for us demanding healthcare. They were willing to throw 2020 and would have lost had the unpredictable and extraordinary circumstances of Covid-19 not occurred, along with Trump’s absolutely bungled response. Covid-19 was the sole event that propelled Biden to the white house. And then he was exactly as ineffective and terrible as all leftists predicted and we got Trump back because of it.

        I think both Trump and Biden handled COVID fucking terribly.

        Really most nations handled it really fucking badly. I can forgive initial mistakes like not knowing how potent it was or how infectious it was, but once they knew the masks were pointless why the hell did they continue to push that crap everywhere.

          It’s absolutely a disgrace how the Dems handled it after an entire year of Trump trying to pretend it just didn’t exist or was just a cold and using that in their campaign. Then when it became convenient for them they began to pretend it was over.

      Well, whoever it is, it’ll be them running against Trump, because he’s already hinted at running for a third term, and he doesn’t give a shit if things he does are illegal. And again, whoever it is the Dems pick, they’ll be such shitheads that they’ll lose the election against Trump again, for the third time. There is absolutely no chance whatsoever they learn their lesson in the next four years, because democrats are mentally incapable of even considering they could ever do anything wrong.

            I was saying that the left says he’s a liar 24/7 but for whatever reason chose to believe him completely when he made that comment. But then they just go right back to calling him a liar when he made clarifications afterwards.

            It’s not that complex if you have a handful of functioning brain cells my guy.

              I thought it was strange why you were defending Trump, till you started in about “tHe LeFt”. Now it makes perfect sense.

                  The irony of a centrist MAGA-lite dudebro calling other people a moron. Well, at least for now. I imagine your latest comment will go the way of your last one, <removed by mod>

                  We’ve all seen your type, you’re being all edgy because you’re just looking for an excuse to justify your right-wing tendencies. Inb4 your “i’M bEiNg CeNsOrEd” post on the conservative community, where you’ll probably go on some more about how women and DEI is killing the nation before telling everyone it’s regrettable you’re being forced by leftist antifa terrorists to vote republican from now on.
