I get that MAGA is a "giant middle finger to the establishment," but what do YOU personally get out of it other than the satisfaction of giving the middle finger? How does YOUR life improve? |
What alternative do you prefer to The Establishment ? While Trump is creating chaos and promotes civil war to entertain his base, the Establishment uses his ignorance to pack the Federal Courts system with lifetime appointments. He cancels established disaster relief, sending his fans out to attack relief workers. He send a mob to disrupt the peaceful transfer of power. Do you want the Establishment to be replaced by Fallujah? |
He just lost a battle with his shirt. |
I think “finger to the establishment “ is their term for believing racism and violence is honorable. |
It’s the Republic version of creating equity from above because it’s easier than from below. Destroy civil society so everyone will be equally poor and suffering. It’s the radical environmentalist approach: end pollution by ending civilization and humanity. Give the Earth back. It’s nihilism. Civilization level suicide because humanity’s was a mistake. |
We've made a lot of enemies around the world. No one is stepping in to "save us" from our own stupidity. The world leaders watched as Hitler murdered millions of his own country's Jewish citizens. We are alone to stew in the making of our own mess while the world watches and laughs. |

You have the right to be stupid and vote against your own best interest. I mean REALLY stupid, but hopefully you'll just weed yourself out of society so I don't have to deal with you again. ![]() |
I appreciate your earnestness, but they’ll either regurgitate something baseless or have some bizarre misguided hope that Trump will save them, despite the evidence. In the WSJ a farmer said his profits went down 25% during Trump’s trade wars, but he was still voting for him. Trump gave $23 billion in handouts to farmers during that time, and only one farmer said he wanted to make money off the market, not from a handout. Many had not recovered since the Trump years, but only one was voting for Harris, and one was going to write in Hayley. It’s like the DC contractor who Trump stiffed $3m for his hotel work, and the guy was voting for him. It may be stupid, but it’s not illegal to vote against your own interests. Cognitive dissonance is powerful. |
Sounds about right for Defense then. |
We were given some grace when this stain was in office. Leaders knew he was not capable and thankfully absorbed his mania enough to not create a world war to check him. I don’t expect it will be extended again. We won’t be saved. We’ll be observed and squashed if necessary. Whatever is left. |
As someone who travels to Europe frequently, I could care less what they think. |
That’s nice dear. Please put your mother in the phone. |
How come Maga are coming across as the reasonable ones on this thread? |
To whom? |
