Only a true waterhead could believe for a fraction of a second that hundreds of people were buried in marked graves straddling the sides of a goddamn road. 

There's no way I can keep my sanity through 3.5 more years of this fever dream.

How hard can it be to answer the phone and give a dollar figure?

Yeah, true.  For reference, past pardon attorneys have been seasoned criminal practitioners attuned to systemic flaws in sentencing and the courts more generally as well as criminal psychology and evidence of rehabilitation/tendency to recidivate.  Given that their role is to assess people who have been sentenced over-harshly under flawed regimes (crack disparity for example) and/or who are deserving of early release or pardon.

It should be a highly respectable and important position.  Of course, they are often largely ignored for political expedience.  They are rarely tools of expedience.  Leave it to Trump, though.

I guess you laugh because Trump hasn't committed genocide.  True enough.  But unlike all those other assholes, who did commit genocide in the shithole countries they took over, Trump took over the richest, arguably free-est, and most stable country in history, and has actually thrown the entire country into reverse at an alarming rate.

He'd commit genocide in a heartbeat if he thought he could get away with it and it would help his ratings.  But because he probably can't as it currently stands, berating national leaders will have to do.

Trump is turning the Oval Office into some weird apprentice set. Bring people in to insult them, and force his team to sit there as the live audience. I don’t think we’re far off that world leaders will just avoid him.

Correct. A nonviolent re-calibration to a working democracy and society is in the hands of 70 million people that voted for this piece of shit and his "policies". Either they wake up or they don't. Basically, we're fucked.

Crazy what a house of cards the presidency and the world’s oldest democracy really was.
All it took was a racist TV ‘billionaire’ charlatan narcissist simpleton to completely break it. 
I truly believed that we, through all our faults, were a city in a hill. There was nothing intrinsically better about Americans, but the system we built was better. That process mattered enough that even given our human frailties we always ‘bent towards freedom.’
Nope. Shit in. Shit out. 
We do not have the raw materials to make this work anymore.
The American populous has become rotten to the core and even with the process we have you can’t turn feces into diamonds.

I disagree. We were a city on a hill if you were / are a white male. Beyond that - living in America was not all rosey. Hell, dead people have more bodily autonomy than women in a lot of states.

I was impressed with the South African president.  He remained cool after the video and talked about how the people in the video did not represent his government's policy and the need to bring voices to the table to discuss differences peacefully.  He thanked Trump for the US delivery of technology that is helping them find criminal activity in South Africa.

And Trump kept going back to "these are thousands of roadside graves, see the video?  Thousands...  Here, see these handouts?  Death...."

I see the Big Beautiful Budget has passed the House. As I've said before, the country has no chance to heal until 1) the MAGA people start feeling real pain (and they will) when the Federal services go away but the taxes don't, 2) no one will help them in an emergency, 3) they lose their basic civil rights (1st & 5th) and human rights (clean water, affordable food, safe medicine).

Then, and only then, will they possibly come to their senses.  But I have a little more faith in the 1/3 of the nation that can't even be bothered to vote.

I always figured it would take a war to get us back on the right path.  This will be that war.

Lmfao this is giving MNhorn vibes in the twitter thread as elon was doing his dumb shit there - yeah everything is going great.

  • Ignoring courts and asserting they have no checks on co-equal branches of government
  • attacking peoples and targeting them for retribution for their peaceful and free speech
  • unilaterally restricting legislatively mandated funds, snatching the power of the purse from congress

are just a few that come to mind. I'm happy to provide specific links if you disagree with anything

Lol if you think that makes any difference, as long as they have trans people and Mexicans to hate, they don’t care.

I always forget who’se who among the surly CR fake libertarians but wasn’t at least one always just hyper focused on deficits and the national debt? We all know they never gave a single shit about that issue, just another fake talking point that their troll fanbase goes with until it’s their people in charge then fucking crickets. There’s zero policy or governance concerns on the right anymore it’s just pure trolling while the elites pad their wealth and shit into their supporters mouths who in turn worship them and thank them for the privilege of tasting that sweet feces.

How many jews/political opponents had Hitler imprisoned and killed before spring of 1933?  Hint: it's pretty close to the same number as Trump has done thus far.

I mean, the USAID cuts alone have caused thousands of deaths already, and will likely lead to millions more. I guess it's not killing if we're just removing aid that these people in no way earned, right? And they aren't Americans anyway. We're saving those deaths for when we get these Medicaid cuts solidified.

I’m not ignoring them. If you wanna say the parallels to Hitler cannot be ignored, that’s a reasonable statement. When you say our President is worse than a guy that killed 6 million Jews and undesirables, yeah, you look fucking stupid and it’s fucking embarrassing. 

As opposed to favorably in that Trump hasn’t killed 30 million people. 

Not yet.  But the night is still young.

I mean he started his post about world leaders berating other world leaders which was the premise of the original comparison. Either way, it's sadly hilarious that we're at the point of "well at least he didn't kill 6 million Jews."

I agree with you that worse than hitler is a bit of hyperbole as of today but to say the trajectory or course is pretty well on par is not exactly a reach.

Yeah, "worse than Hitler" is not merited at this point in time.  "Following much of Hitler's fascist playbook" is 100% merited.  And an observation that "when people follow a previous playbook, there is a very real likelihood of a similar outcome" is also a 100% valid observation.

But, you know, this is all hyperbole and hysterics unless and until the full task is completed: political enemies rounded up and shipped to camps/detention facilities (here, in Lower Bumfuckistan, etc.), dead bodies stacking up, functionally declaring this to be a white nation for the white race (whoops, that one has already happened).....

Yeah, I don't think anyone is saying that Trump is worse than Hitler.

What is freaking people out is that this is the exact same opening act of an absolutely awful chapter in history.  I mean, he is following the blueprint to a T, and if you're defending it in any way, even if it's because you don't quite understand what is happening right now, you are part of the problem, and you should never, ever vote again.

Reading back at what you're freaking out about, he referred to one particular attribute and behavior -- how they deal with other state leaders ("berating another leader in a public forum") -- and observed that Trump is worse than Hitler and Stalin and such in that respect.  On that particular issue, in that context, it's a point worthy of discussion.  I don't necessarily reach that conclusion -- I think it's less that he's "worse" than them then it is that he's an utterly incompetent juvenile toddler-stage narcissist, which makes him somewhat unique in that class.  And if he was just the President and Supreme Potentate of the Peoples Republic of Nowhereistan, it wouldn't mean shit.  As the President of the most powerful country on earth....it's a big fucking deal.

I feel really fucking dirty here but to defend Rex, using Hitler as a reference specifically to how he treated other world leaders is a really stupid comparison. Hitler is not known for his treatment of world leaders. It'd be like if I said "The Derel has worse fashion sense than Jeffrey Dahmer". Yes Jeffrey wore some odd clothes and yes The Derel is the worst, but there are better exemplars to use if I want to specifically focus on fashion.

You need to reread and check your fucking comprehension. 

A bit?  That was difficult for you to type, wasn’t it?

If you want to say the trajectory of former tyrants is present and cite examples, my opinion is that’s totally fair. When you compare him to any of those people saying he’s worse in any aspect, you lose all credibility. Here’s what Twice effectively said: “Hitler and Stalin each killed millions of people, but, at least they had decorum with other world leaders”. And a lot of fuckers here are totally on board with it, and getting pissy with me, calling me a troll and negging. 

To be fair, the comparison was of one psychopathic asshole to other psychopathic assholes.  Completely accurate in that they're all psychopathic assholes.  The degree to which their psychopathic assholery has progressed differs.

That depends on where in the Hitler story arc we are talking about. Hitler didn't come right out with the death camps. What he did was put those undesirables on trains to another country out of the view of the German citizens. Some years down the line the Germans found out they were killing them. We are currently in the beginning stages of Trump trying to suspend Habeas Corpus so he can get on with the process of pushing out 15 million(his words) Hispanics to who knows where to do who knows what. But keep chuckling.
