    I vote we let Boeing design a brand new plane for Trump. Make sure it has all the bells and whistles. Add a co pilot seat for Musk.

    Americans will never see any real progress in their lifetimes as long as the Democratic party in its current incarnation stands intact.

    Conservatives are by their nature evil and reactionary, but also simultaneously eternal and temporary. They are a society’s dead skin being shed before the new form emerges, its cocoon of petulant narcissism refusing to accept reality.

    The problem with neoliberal Democrats is that they don’t realize that they’re conservative too, and as such must be shed.

      Blaming Dems, when we could have had so much progress because of them since 2000 if gore had been granted his win, is the reason we got trump.

      People and posts like you and yours are part of the problem. You spend all your energy fighting the only party trying to help you at all right now and for the past 25 years.

      This isn’t about Dems this is about shortsighted electorate like you.

      Calling neolibs conservatives is fucking hilarious and sad.

        Neoliberalism is right wing though, you have American brainrot. America is so far right wing (fascist) you cant even see it.

        if gore had been granted his win

        Yes, he was the actual winner

        Blaming Dems […] is the reason we got trump.

        Lol, lmao even.

        You spend all your energy fighting the only party trying to help you at all right now and for the past 25 years.

        Yeah they’ve been doing a bang up job of it.

        Literally every tactic employed by Trump could have been employed by a Dem who actually wanted to enact positive change, as well as expanding and packing the supreme court with loyalists. You know, if they didn’t have dementia and weren’t being “Weekend at Bernie’s’ed” by party functionaries.

        This isn’t about Dems this is about shortsighted electorate like you.

        “The Democrat Party can never fail, they can only be failed.”

        Calling neolibs conservatives is fucking hilarious and sad.

        I only wish I could see your face when you look up the word “neoliberal”

    That is not luck, that is by design, there’s a lot of engineering done to ensure airplane crashes has as high survival rate as it can. Unfortunately, there’s no such design on the political system as a whole.

    People are already not surviving, literally and figuratively, the time has long since come and gone to “hope” the problem isn’t real. The problem very much here, and it is absolutely going to kill us unless we do something about it right fucking now.

      The rest of the world would be quite pleased though.

      No more giving weapons to terrorists, only for them to turn out to be terrorists.
      No more overthrowing diplomatically elected governments because they got in the way of some oil drilling.
      No more invading other countries, spending 10 years stomping around, then leaving it worse than it was when they started.

    Ah yes. Genocide is always fine with the far-left wackos, as long as it suits their purposes.
