I had no idea it would be this bad

Everyone knew who Trump was, and they STILL preferred him to Democrats in 2024. Assuming that HE is going to now SAVE Democrats from themselves is wishful thinking indeed.

Instead, Democrats will have to come up with a new policy platform that flyover state voters actually like. So far, that looks like a task the Democrats can’t handle. They HATE flyover state voters and do NOT want to govern for their benefit.

Trump won in 2024 due to a very unpopular sitting POTUS just like Biden won in 2020 due to a very unpopular sitting POTUS. It's as simple as that. Considering Trump's tanking job approval rating, what do you think will happen in 2028? That's right, history will once again repeat itself.

Yes, we knew it would be bad. Yes, we read Project 25 (which he lied about).
However, we also made it through his first term with a lot less insane chaos and harm than he's done in the first 100 days of this term. There was chaos. There was harm. But MAGA has stretched the outer limits of our democracy farther and faster than last time and our checks and balances are having a harder time than we expected. We secretly hoped that there would still be adults in the room.

This post is infuriating. It was widely reported that there wouldn’t be adults in the room, that Trump would only appoint loyalists. No “adults” would have supported his running again or agreed to serve in his second administration. Many, many people sounded the alarm that the Republicans were removing the guardrails of democracy that protected us during his first term. This was no secret!!! Where were you?! When he said completely batsh!t crazy nonsense and couldn’t explain any policies or positions on the campaign trail, what made you think we’d be okay under his tenure? You either weren’t paying attention or you were just in denial.

But we have an American Pope, now, who's retweeted negatively re the Trump Admin.

Things are looking up!

Sure wish we had nominated someone with legitimate two term POTUS acumen back in 2020 so that a Trump second term was never possible. Prioritizing control over things within your control is always the best plan of action.

Look, I’m a Dem Biden-hater, but who cares. The felon said immigrants were eating cats and dogs, and Vance said he lied about it, that should have disqualified both. Stop focusing on the wrong thing. It was CLEAR as day things would be bad.

Yeah, that would have been great, but what does that have to do with the post you’re responding to?

We have zero control over idiot Republicans. Whining about Trump's awfulness gets us nowhere. Making it impossible for awful people to become president is something we can control by making sure there is adequate opposition.

[Anonymous]

There is no way he really won all 7 battleground states. And Dems took a lot of those down ballot offices. No way.


We didn’t vote for this. Trump and Elon even bragged about fixing it and it’s being ignored.

There are millions of idiots who DID vote for him, but most of us did not. He did not win.

How, pray tell, were Democrats supposed to make it impossible for awful people to become president? We impeached Trump twice. We held detailed trials in the Senate. We had an exhaustive investigation with public hearings into January 6th. We attempted to prosecute him for his involvement in January 6th and for refusing to turn over classified documents to the lawful authorities. We’ve fought him in court every step of the way. We forced Biden out of the race in a Hail Mary. Our failure to stop Trump wasn’t for lack of trying.

Democrats engaging in a circular firing squad is no more effective than whining about Trump’s awfulness, so let’s stop blaming people who tried to stop Trump and sounded the alarm bells and were ignored by a lot of idiots who just assumed everything would work out, despite a mountain of evidence to the contrary.

Had the Dems nominated a legitimately presidential person who was capable of serving two terms back in 2020, we wouldn't had to worry about a Trump second term ever being possible. We instead had Biden forced on us as the nominee and the door for Trump to win a second term in 2024 was pushed wide open and sure enough, Biden have the devil a second term.

Elections have consequences. Pay attention to who you are voting for as much as you pay attention to who you are voting against. If you start seeing and hearing some nonsense out of the blue about a grumpy elderly man being the "best" your party can do from your favorite media source, use your common sense to say "no way, Joese". Ever wonder how and why Biden went from trailing Warren and Sanders during the summer/early fall of 2019 to suddenly ahead in the "polls" and the only guy who can beat the sitting POTUS with a 35% approval rating? Could it be because wealthy financial backers preferred the career long predictable politician who plays nice with mega-donors over a Warren or Sanders? Now, why would wealthy people want to use their power and influence to make sure Sanders or Warren could never be POTUS....? hhhhmmmmmmm
