Election 2024

Democracy or Dictatorship? I dunno? I mean, there's good people........on both sides.

Looks like I'll be forced to do my own research.

our democracy is in as much jeopardy

as it was back in 1861, the start of the first insurrection AKA: THE CIVIL WAR

Hope the good guys win again, as 30% of our fellow Americans believe TFG was sent to us by God.

Which supports my belief that "Christians" must be told what to think and are suckers for authoritarian propaganda.

opposition research, pls remove if this breaks du rules

wow, just wow. didn'ttmark meadows or kevin mccarthy gift something like 45,000 HOURS of J6 footage to tucker carlson?

haven't there been something like 400 plus convictions of j6 insurrectionist crimes that resulted in jail time?

didn't tfg and his operatives issue a bunch of stand down orders to nat. guard and dc police?

didn't trump refuse to call off the riot for hours and instead let it boil over in to violence and destruction?

wasn't it necessary to use deadly force when ashley babbitt was about to breach a secure area and have the mob follow her in?

wasn't it sheer dumb luck that pence, pelosi, and a few others weren't caught and lynched by the mob?

didn't bobert and mtg and others give tours to future insurrections only a few days before j6?

"...... stop the defunding of Ukraine."

"stop the defunding"

That means keep defunding ukraine, right? WARNING! cliche to follow: "even a broken clock is right twice a day."

I know little of Bannon Other that hes the maga minister of mis and dis information. Remarkably anti-American. We want to be respected and credible on the World to continue to be there leader of the Free World. He's more damaging to ALL OF US Than the gun lobby, heart disease, covid, book banning, canceling Constitutional Rights, sociopathic corporations and global climate change COMBINED. We used to be well educated and civil. Now we are howling ,monkeys throwing manufactured and wrong un-American propaganda.

It's amazing to me that so any MAGA's and Republic support and admire Putin? Frankly, it's like Putin Two, Electric Boogaloo.

MT Green is one traitor in favor of supporting Putin's Stalin -like dictatorship and assassinating his critics by polonium or tall buildings and plane crashes. MAGA and all Republics are traitors. Don't we have laws and reps and culture and easy access to instant encyclopedia like internet that could push these un_Americans to remedy their mental illnesses and worship of ignorance and love of tyrannical dictatorships.

The concept, probably a Thom Hartmann quote reminding us to; "Ask not what your country can do for you, but what you can do for your country."

I'm a boomer, and I liked JFK a lot when he was in the White house. I lived during the Cuban Missile Crisis and remember grown ups freaking out and as l learn more about it over the years, They were all worried about global nuclear war. I had stupid nuclear bomb drills in first grade. 1961. Really. It's where I got my first lessons in decisions by our get it wrong every now and then authority figures that in hindsight were only accurate perhaps 60% of the time. And caused a lot of suffering on our stupid unnecessary wars of choice based on lies of GW Bush, mostly, and Trump's narcistic world class sociopathy. Although I don't think TFG started any wars? He just infected our nation with institutional corription. That could result in the end of the world next Election.

About 90-percent

Gee - my profile info didn't migrate from the old DU I guess? The main thing - 90% refers to the maximum allowable percentage of nitromethane fuel permitted in modern NHRA Top Fuel and Funny cars. Which is what makes current "nostalgia nitro" so cool - you can still "tip the can" and run straight nitro, if you want to. I'm an aging northeast liberal with an overdeveloped justice gland. OUR INSTITUTIONS ARE INFESTED WITH GREEDY AND CORRUPT SOCIOPATHS
