Turns out that braying loudly about how powerful you are ("I run the country and the world") and insisting that your cabinet tell you how great you are in a televised meeting don't necessarily make you competent or effective as president. I'll take the quiet ones any day.

And Harris was a fine candidate. It’s disgusting to see such blatant misogyny with all these posts blaming Harris. The blame lies with ignorant and sexist voters who foolishly chose Trump over her. Because no thinking, informed, educated, non-sexist, non-racist person would choose such an obviously dangerous and stupid criminal and conman over her. If MAGA has regrets, they only have themselves to blame. Personal responsibility. Own it.

And the “reasons” people can come up with for why Kamala wasn’t qualified include deep thoughts such as “she laughs funny,” “she supports the trans agenda” (even though she didn’t even run on that), and “yada yada woke yada the illegals yada yada …”

But the convicted felon, adjudicated rapist who incited an insurrection and speaks horribly about immigrants, the disabled, etc. (not to mention is a known liar with a fraudulent university and multiple bankruptcies) is a great candidate who should run the country. 🙄

The reality is Trump ran for president 3x and the only time he lost was running against a man. I don’t think that was a coincidence.


I don't pretend to understand Trump's appeal. But he didn't win because of misogyny. Nikki Haley would have won in a landslide if she was the GOP candidate. And I think Michelle Obama would have won if she was a candidate. And good lord, if Dolly Parton ever runs for president she would be a juggernaut and would win all 50 states.

Democrats are losing to trash like Trump because of bad candidates and bad policy. Not gender. And I swear to god if Democrats nominate a creepy shapeshifter like Gavin Newsom just because he's a white man, I am done with the party.


Agree, any GOP candidate with a pulse could have won in 2024 due to Biden's circumstances. It was a repeat of 2020 with the sides flopped. A legitimate GOP nominee would have won in landslide fashion.

Just because Trump is bad doesn't mean I have to swallow nonsense like Harris was good, actually.

One does not rule out the other - both can be bad in different ways!

No, the Democrats are quietly competent. And that's the problem - they don't trumpet their successes. That and they are too scared of the progressive left to admit they are actually social moderates. At last Newsom is willing to risk offending the far left.


I can’t even believe you think this that Dems are competent. You seriously believe this? You seriously believe Trump found his way to office without Dems totally worse than him? If so please let me know so I can sell you a castle. Man, the Dems are even more lost than Trump! Trump is a lot of horrible and psycho weird mortifying things but he’s being Trump. The Dems have lost their way completely to end up where the are collectively. 80 yr olds in leadership with zero stars except wildly rad left wing nut jobs. They lost a presidency to a convicted felon. They ran an idiot who couldn’t win one swing state with how much money? So no, just no, the Dems suck.

Hmmm. Let's see now.

You imported 10,000,000+ million unvetted poverty cases and kept telling us "there's nothing we can do about it but pass new laws in Congress".

Trump exports 70,000 of the worst (rapist, murderers, kidnappers, gang members) and you have a fit. No middle ground, eh?


1) trump has not deported 70,000 people
2) he has broken the law by ignoring SCOTUS and Constitutionally mandated DUE PROCESS

Why do you support our government breaking the law?

So no more cancer research, no more soft power, retain aging air traffic controllers, no more meat and milk inspectors, no more nuclear reactor monitors and the list goes on. Sounds like a winner!

One is a dictator and the other is a black woman, so I guess they are equally bad.

Biden left office leaving a record economy and economic growth and restored standing on the global stage and Trump has completely trashed it in 100 days. On what planet does this embrace the Dems are incompetent?

At first, I was just horrified. Then, I got outraged, over and over. Then, I calmed down and thought, I'm going to do whatever I can do to oppose this horror show that has taken over the federal government. But now, I'm sickened because good people are not stepping up. They are intimidated and frightened by the bully. I'm more angry at the cowardly Democrats and the traitorous law firms that have capitulated to the bully's demands. Those Democratic politicians and lawyers (who used to support Democrats) make me sick. Why aren't they standing up to the evil that has overtaken our federal government?

What? They are. It’s just going to take a while to get rid of the DINOs so that there are more of them. If you look, though, through the courts and through the Democrats in the legislative, people are fighting Trump. That’s why he’s failed at almost everything he tries, and why the “successful” things get reversed.

Unfortunately, the news doesn’t cover all of the actions just like they don’t cover things like the huge May Day protests.

Just wait til our water is no longer potable after RFK pulls fluoride from it but other things go wrong. Just wait til foreign hackers turn off our electric grid. Just wait til martial law is imposed on our city streets and we don’t have elections any more. This is where we are headed.

This is what those idiots want, but they are incompetent and they will fail.
