The official campaign for the Republican candidate for U.S. President campaigned on the slogan "Make Liberals Cry Again."
The GOP didn't have a policy platform in 2020, but at least their candidate had that slogan, and the Republican masses were cheering and hollering over it at every Trump really.
Everyone on the campaign was okay with that. Everyone in the Republican party was okay with that. Everyone on the Republican National Committee was okay with that.
Tells you absolutely everything you need to know about the current Republican party.
I don't think the average American wants politicians this old, they are being chosen by their political parties as having the highest chance of winning because we have a broken voting system that encourages fewer candidates per party so that they don't steal votes from each other.
That is why we need ranked choice voting, so that more candidates can run without competing and we could vote for people we actually like instead of voting against candidates we don't like.
Not to mention the need to level the playing field in terms of campaign financing which currently makes it more likely for more established politicians to have collected funding from private organizations, superpacs, and corporate lobbying.
This means that the politicians who are in the pockets of the capitalist elites are more likely to win and to enact the will of these corporations.
It was pretty quiet for a while there. At least he wasn't making the headlines each day. Potentially another year of having to hear about this buffoon won't be good for my mental health.
I hate Trump because of his terrible politics, his horrible personality, and all of his criminal activities, including leading a failed insurrection.
We have enough bad things to say about him without making a big deal out of nothing.
We even have a lot of shit we can point at if we want to question his mental state, like how he said that windmills were killing whales, and his huge recent revelation that the word "us" was spelled U-S, which he thought he was the first person to realize.
Yes, Republicans would be all over Biden if he made this mistake, but these are the same morons who decided that vaccines were bad during a pandemic, but that it made sense to go blind eating horse dewormer that didn't actually fight the disease.
I wouldnāt normally think itās a big deal to mix up two similar-sounding citiesā once I got on a flight to Greenville and the flight attendant got on the speaker and said āwelcome to flight [xxx] to Greensboro,ā causing momentary panicā but this is part of a pattern. He recently has said he beat Obama in an election, that Jeb Bush was president, that Biden could get us into World War II, and several more. Taken in isolation any of these things could be dismissed as a slip of the tongue but taken all together, it does suggest the guy might be losing his grip.
