I don’t blame Bernie. But I do blame those who claimed to be on his side, who knew what a Trump Presidency would be (as we all did) and who it would hurt the most, and yet chose to do nothing to oppose it, and then treated that as some kind of righteousness
As that famous, kinda mangled new Marvel version of the old Spider-Man “responsibility” quote, re-jigged to presumably avoid some extremely expensive copywrite infringement goes..
“When you can do the things that I can, but you don't, and then the bad things happen, they happen because of you.”
Imagine thinking the only people at threat from an American presidency are those in america.
The poor under-eulogised people in Iraq, Libya, Iran, Yemen living in constant fear that an american politician will order the invasion of their country or drone strike their wedding party or support a cia coup or the saudis shooting a cruise missile made by motherfecking raytheon, i guess they should have thought about incrementalist and compromise before they recklessly expected centrists to give a shit...
what does that mean, do nothing to oppose it? because said bernie bros voted for the candidate who would have defeated trump.
I don’t give a shit about Hillary Clinton mate. She was rubbish, of course she was! All I do care about is the fact we have an actual fascist disaster idiot in the most powerful position on earth....and he’s tangibly ruining lives on the daily.
There has to be some point, potentially when the nukes are already on their way, and we’ve all got a mere 6 minutes to say our goodbyes and come up with something really cool to say on the Caf, when “yeah, but Hillary was shit” isnt really gonna cut it as a catch all reposte...
you say "but hillary was shit" as if its just a glib response. hillary clinton would have caused death for thousands of people whose names you and i will never know in countries we will never visit. you cant frame that as a moral choice unless you value those lives differently.
in the extreme unlikely scenario, you are right. But Trump is the result not the problem. We have this situation because of decades of lies by both parties.
We have to stop somewhere.
Yes, let's put a stop once we've made sure that the judiciary branch is irreversibly to the right.
glad to have your support for court packing with the next democratic president
When you don’t need to whistle anymore, just straight out barking.
FBI Documents on Roger Stone Reveal Sabotage, Espionage, and the Life of a Serial Bagman
by Emma Best
"The FBI documents include a list “highlights” of acts of political sabotage in which Stone was either directly involved or served as the handler for the relevant operative. In one case, Stone sent 200 Democrats invitations to a non-existent primary campaign breakfast. In another, Stone directed Democratic campaign literature intended for the black community to be sent to union workers, and literature intended for union workers to be sent to the black community. In yet another, Stone saw to it that phone lines used by a Democratic primary campaign were tampered with. This resulted in Democratic failure to contact many potential voters, while others were potential voters were inadvertently contacted “numerous times.” In still another instance, Stone made a phony donation from the Young Socialist Alliance to create and exploit divisions among Democrats."

James Ellroy might hesitate to write this stuff. Bunch of crooks, all of them.
Lmao this country is beyond saving
i see this Krassenstein everywhere. Tweets from Trump (always) Obama, Clinton, James Comey, John Brennan he's there.
hes one of the most active resistance grifters
He and his brother Ed. The pair are restless. Both banned by Trump at one point until they helped fight it as being unconstitutional and abusing Presidential powers as the account is a public account of the President and people should not be blocked just for having an opinion.
Both spend far too much time in the gym and eating lentils, too.
They have some other Tweets where they show themselves waist deep in water somewhere saying the same shit about being ok about showing their kids shirtless males.
2018 folks.
That's a paddling.
BOOM!
Feck DeVos!
NY was fecked up in the 2016 primaries as well
It won't make a difference for Cuomo who's winning big, but might matter for the other races.

there are no good republicans
Where’s that Chappelle bit about sprinkling crack on the victim when you need it?
Ironic considering the bit he then speaks about just after the crack sprinkling.....
When fascism comes to America...oh, it's already there.
Liberal icons... Koch brothers?
They are consistent libertarians on border policy and war too. A shame that 9/10ths of their political work is destroying environmental regulations and safety nets.
The Law about felons not being able to vote is just another form of voter suppression.
It's designed to stop black people from voting.

Is it really though? I mean it may be to a certain extent but I'm not so sure it's that simple or purposely racist. Many countries have the same laws regarding prisoners voting. The UK does and it's simply because when you go to prison you lose many privileges, voting being one of them.
Most US laws regarding convicted felons voting rights persist even after they've served their sentences.
And if you consider the fact that black men are disproportionately more likely to be jailed, that's where the suppression angle comes into play.
US felons aren't allowed to vote even after serving their time.
