The worst the right can say about a hypothetical Democrat is that they are like an actual Republican president. That shows a lot about their mindset. Make "Democrat" a slur so they can put evil men in power.

His whole Presidency is Project 2025, which he swore he knew nothing about. He just installed Project 2025 author as the manager of the entire Federal budget. Trump "doing whatever he wants" means incoherent tweets about Executive Orders he doesn't read

And the American public falls for it over and over.

Every time a new Republican comes along.
"This guy is evil and dumb."
"This guy is so much worse than that guy. The last guy was actually reasonable. He was pretty bright and sophisticated."

They went from saying Romney isn't one of us(literally a campaign ad) to wishing he were the President.

There will be another guy that comes along and liberals will be saying Trump was actually a good guy.

No, we won’t. Who are you planning to run next, the devil himself?!

I agree and yet watching the MAGA admin I'm concerned that one of them are.

You're not paying attention. They are planning to run anyone next. Since 2016 their platform was that elections aren't real; they are just theater that are required to say " Trump won" or else.

Lol, when does Trump ever mix with “regular people?” He mixes with the people who come to Mar a Lago or his fundraisers. He speaks to people from onstage at rallies. He does staged photo ops. We’ve never had another president who lived a life as shielded from the common man as Trump has been his entire adult life.

What are you talking about? Trump has visited every small town dump and ghetto in America . He’s earned all his votes . He wasn’t hidden from the public or at 25k/plate George Clooney fundraisers in Hwood and the Hamptons. He had stamina and would speak for hours often without script or teleprompter in the hot Sun at almost 80 years old. Hillary fainted from one hour in the heat and Biden was obviously ill. Kamala can’t even say the pledge of allegiance without a script and two days rehearsal. Come on.

The Dems didn’t have a talented politician with a gift for gab, stamina, and a biting wit since Obama

Yay we have a used car salesman President who appeals to the worst base instincts of the dumbest people in America. Democracy wins; we got the monster we deserve.

Well, Trump lost in 2020 because he was an unpopular elderly president. Biden lost the election for Dems in 2024 because he was an unpopular elderly president. Trump will lose again in 2028 because he is an unpopular elderly president. Do you see the obvious trend that will carry over to 2028?

You can draw a straight line from:

Joseph McCarthy to Roy Cohn to Fred Trump to Donald Trump. Roy Cohn counseled the Trumps on how to evade the law, tell outrageous lies, accuse your enemy of whatever you’re doing, and to make anyone who crossed them as miserable as possible so they’d think twice about doing it again.

And from Richard Nixon to Roger Stone to Paul Manafort and Donald Trump. It was Stone who first proposed that Trump run for office, and Stone was involved in the planning of January 6th. Manafort was a Trump campaign strategist and was Trump’s campaign manager who succeeded Corey Lewendowsky in 2016. Manafort failed to register as a foreign agent and was instrumental in connecting Trump and Jared Kushner to foreign contacts, which initiated the Russian connections.

And from Donald Barr to Jeffrey Epstein and to his own son, Bill Barr. Jeffrey Epstein was hired by Bill Barr’s father to teach math at a private school, with seemingly no prior experience or particular qualifications. Epstein later became a personal acquaintances of Donald Trump’s and was a sex offender and human trafficker. Bill Barr served as the US Attorney General for both George H W Bush (father of George W) and for Donald Trump. He misrepresented the findings of the Mueller Report to the American people for Trump’s benefit.

And from Ken Starr, the independent counsel who exhaustively investigated the Clintons, to Rod Rosenstein and Alex Azar, who investigated Whitewater, and Brett Kavanaugh, who was one of the investigators and principal authors of the Starr Report, which ultimately led to Bill Clinton’s impeachment for lying under oath about his sexual relationship with Monica Lewinsky, which had nothing to do with Whitewater. Trump later appointed Rosenstein to Deputy Attorney General, Azar to Secretary of Health and Human Services, and Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court.

From George W Bush to Neil Gorsuch to Donald Trump. Gorsuch, of the Justice Department, defended the Bush administration’s terror and torture policies, fighting to prevent the public disclosure of the abuse at Abu Ghraib and the detention of terror suspects at Guantanamo Bay. Trump appointed Gorsuch to the Supreme Court.

If you ccombine Cohn’s brand of showmanship, retribution and smear campaigns, Nixon’s corruption, Reagan’s economic policies (the rich get richer and the economic disparity between the wealthiest Americans and everyone else grows exponentially; services are cut and the people who need them reviled), dirty tricks from the playbooks of people like Lee Atwater and Karl Rove (who got George W Bush elected, after George HW Bush gave Rove the title of Chairman of the College Republicans, following accusations of Rove’s cheating in the election), the Federalist Society’s ideology (Project 2025), the fake-it-till-you-make-it tenacity of Ken Starr, the willingness to justify the unjustifiable of Neil Gorsuch, the foreign connections of Paul Manafort, a Jeffrey Epstein level of respect for women, and the racism of Fred Trump (Donald’s father who was arrested on the street when Klansmen were being rounded up after a rally and who refused to rent properties to Blacks), what do you get? Donald Trump.

He is the sum of all who came before him and a natural step in the progression of the Republican Party. He didn’t ruin the Party; he is the Frankenstein of Party’s creation. To argue about whether Trump is worse than previous Republican presidents is to obfuscate their role in Trump’s rise to power. They made a Trump presidency possible. Don’t forget that when you assess the damage they’ve done to America.

Biden wasn’t qualified to serve a second term and definitely should not have run again. You can blame Joe Biden for a Republican winning in 2024, but you can’t blame him for that Republican being Trump. More reasonable Republican candidates ran. The GOP rejected them — the same GOP that wouldn’t hold Trump accountable for January 6th by making him ineligible to hold office again. The Republican Party owns Trump’s second term.

Have we done a thread on Joe Biden's disasterous term vs. Joe Biden trying to pitifully defend his disasterous term?

Hint: even democrats want him to go away and keep quiet.

I GLADLY own it. You spew nonsense about democracy whilst having five criminal lawsuits simultaneously lawfaring against him, arresting him, sending a SWAT team in to his house, and trying to get him stricken from the ballot in three states. You were scared to death you would lose democrat power. That's why I gladly voted for him in the primary and for president.

I just hope his administration is as nasty to democrats as they were to him. Buuuut, TBH, I'm kinda disappointed so far he hasn't made the left's life a living effing hell. Maybe good things are yet to come? Whaddya think?

Biden's term was a disaster primarily because he made it easy for Trump to win in 2024. Trump is a disaster waiting to happen because he lacks the integrity required of POTUS office.

Those same “idiots” prevented Trump from being re-elected in 2020. In January 2021, the GOP refused to make sure Trump could never hold office again. The Trump problem could have been solved in between Biden’s win in 2020 and Biden’s announcing his 2024 candidacy, but GOP Senators wouldn’t do it and 2024 GOP primary voters refused all other candidates, and GOP judges gave felon Trump some cover. Trump’s second term isn’t anyone else’s fault. The blame lies squarely on the Republican Party.

You spew nonsense about democracy whilst having five criminal lawsuits simultaneously lawfaring against him, arresting him, sending a SWAT team in to his house, and trying to get him stricken from the ballot in three states. You were scared to death you would lose democrat power. That's why I gladly voted for him in the primary and for president.

I just hope his administration is as nasty to democrats as they were to him. Buuuut, TBH, I'm kinda disappointed so far he hasn't made the left's life a living effing hell. Maybe good things are yet to come? Whaddya think?

I think that you are moderately mentally ill but likely appear to be functional to your friends and co-workers.

Does your family know?
