Yes, at :26. There was also bigfoot and a blue butterfly. We're in Idiocracy but it's turbocharged with AI.

If we have something like fair elections in 2026 and 2028, Trump and Republicans will be historically unpopular and Democrats should be able to make gains that are unprecedented in the last 50 years. There will still be maga die hard dumbshits, the type that were blaming Jimmy Carter for the economic crash of 2008 and there will be enough of them to stop Republican bleeding in the Senate considering the unfavorable map in 2026. All best case scenario as I see it, but Democrats have a good chance of having Presidency and both houses of Congress in 2028 assuming fair elections and all that. After that, they'll need to deliver on substantial changes that help regular people despite the maga stacked courts and a free press that's either dead or consolidated under the thumb of mega billionaire oligarchs. Attack the mega billionaires, monopolies, corruption, money in politics, and the post truth culture of dishonesty. Champion the working class, affordability and access, and the revival of the American Dream. Of course, Democratic leadership will never do any of that because they want to keep all that corporate cash. The voters will have short memories in the 2030 midterms, same as in 2010 and we'll only have postponed permanent oligarchy. I'm going to live it up in the time that's left before I'm condemned to the USA, XAmazon Fulfillment Labor Camp whether that's next year or in the early 2030s. That's my probably too optimistic take and my contribution to balancing the Force.

Government Shutdown 2025: This Time It’s Personal
Bojack replied to Bozo_Casanova's topic in Cloak Room
I think you're right to an extent. I expect Trump and Republicans to be historically unpopular a year from now because all the fascism and a crashed out economy. Still, putting Kansas in the win column because Dems won one statewide election in 2018 during a blue wave after Republicans had bankrupted the state is like counting on Alabama because of Doug Jones beating Roy Moore that one time. Susan Collins won comfortably in 2018 despite the blue wave. Nebraska, Ohio, Iowa, and Alaska haven't voted Dem statewide in I don't know when. I expect we might have a pleasant surprise out of one of those but no way we run the table. You also have to account for the high probability of unprecedented cheating by Republicans and the ineptitude of Democrats. All that if we even have elections. -
You know malaka, yes?! Now you know malaka with dress!

If all the roles were reversed to where the Dems had the Presidency, House, Senate, judiciary, with the same margins during the same kind of shutdown, the Republican Senate minority leader would be co-president right now. Especially after an electoral sweep, they'd be making constant headlines. We'd be so fucking sick of that guy.

Government Shutdown 2025: This Time It’s Personal

He never opposed the agenda of Dick Cheney, most especially the Iraq and Afghanistan wars. The only opposition to all that back then was on the left. Some day, he'll act as if he was always against the overreach of ICE, the annihilation of small "drug smuggling" boats without due process, the blatant weaponization of the DOJ, the invasions of Venezuela and Nigeria, etc... For now, of course, he won't offer any criticism of this administration whatsoever. He's a miserable drunk prick and a liar. -
After the Vanderbilt game, espn's AI predictor thing said we have a 55% chance.

Bold prediction: If we invade Nigeria and Venezuela, the government shutdown continues through Christmas, the economy tanks worse than 2008, ICE goes crazy with tear gas in 20 more cities, they tear down West Wing of the White House, and the Epstein files get released and show that Trump repeatedly fucked underage girls, I could see his approval rating dipping into the high 20s.

It's almost like he's finding a pretense to invade countries with oil. It's amazing that the president calling for the invasion of Nigeria doesn't make more news.

On the Majority Report live feed, they said we should get an idea by 9:30 eastern. They're in New York and are paying close attention to the race.

Based on the last week, Jigsaw has earned her own thread

I'm going with both. It'll be publicly funded and they'll insist it's privately funded so they can pocket the $200 million.

I like how Trump and his legion of rube dumbshit followers all insist that the ballroom will be privately funded. So, it's a means for rich pricks with 100s of millions of dollars at their disposal to buy even more influence.

This episode is called A Still Small Voice. I haven't watched it yet. I don't know what the episode title might be referencing but that phrase appears in Monster Ballads by Josh Ritter. Ones and zeroes bleeding mesa noise And when you're empty there's so much space for them You turn it off but then a still small voice Comes in blazing from some vast horizon
