I know this sounds awful but he needs to just die already.
- You misspelled wonderful.
  
  I know this sounds awful, but he needs to just wonderful already.
- sounds pleasant to me. I'd love to wake up tomorrow and hear this giant turd shat himself to death and died on his golden toilet.
  
  My plan is to make Amish funeral pie with extra orange zest to celebrate the day the human shitstain finally croaks on his gold toilet. I invite others to as well.
  
  (Don't let the raisins scare you, It's actually a really tasty pie)
  
  I'd do a little jig.
  
  I might even sing. (but only if no one can hear me. World, you're welcome for that.)
- “He needs to just die already.” That’s all you had to say, friend.
He misunderstood. We wanted him to have been aborted.
- There's still time, isn't there?
  
  It's never too late for a post-natal abortion.
  
  Yes there is.
trump is absolute proof that the only thing that matters to get power, is money.

He is dumber than a bag of rocks and was elected president
- Not even money. The appearance of money.
  
  This is actually important for promotions and raises too. Gotta laugh to keep from crying
- It that was true, Bloomberg would be your president now.
  
  There's more to it.
  
  Trump's one talent is to make morons feel good about their hatred and bigotry and talk to them in a way that makes then feel like they understand what he's saying.
- That's pretty insulting to a box of rocks. Let's go with dumber than dogshit.
So he does what Democrats want? Is that supposed to endear him to Republicans?
- Part of loving a fantasy is ignoring all the actual details.
  
  If Cinderella's slipper fit her perfectly, why did it fall off?
  
  Why didn't the Evil Queen just give Snow White a bad rash, or have the Woodsman break her nose?
  
  The MAGoos are like five year olds, don't mess with the story by pointing out how insane it is.
- The Republiclowns don't think for themselves. They do what their told to do by fox "news".
Can someone just tell Boeing that he has some dirt on them, already...
Demented rapist says what?
sigh…
God he is really just saying whatever the fuck he wants no matter how ridiculous it is. Dude seems to be unraveling faster.
- what's weird is this is exactly what he did for four years of 24/7 media coverage and the author of this article is still phrasing it like "can you believe this?"
  
  Yeah. Yeah, we can. Why can't you. Or, more to-the-point; why don't you, article writers?
- His cultists are the same. None of them care what the truth is in the slightest. I've seen redcaps on Lemmy say the Dems are responsible for Dobbs because Biden was in office for it.
- If it works, don't fix it. He says whatever cockamamie bullshit pops into his head, and his followers go wild with approval.
  
  (cockamamie)
Oddly enough, in a way, he's right.

Democrats' response to Roe repeal news was to fundraise. They pulled in a cool $80,000,000.

Democrats are never going to codify Roe because it's just too lucrative an issue. It's the same reason why Republicans will make sure we always have a so-called border crisis.
- Codifying Roe would be pointless when SCOTUS has said it’s a state’s rights issue
  
  It's pointless because it's their golden goose. It's only a states-rights issue because it was never legislated at the federal level, even when the Dems had a supermajority.
Neurosyphilis is wild
- Fuck that makes a lot sense
The first thing I'll do as President is sign the Freedom of Choice Act https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=BdrOrwmk78Y

- Yup.
  
  I would argue that Trump should have said ‘the democratic party’ instead of democrats, but I don’t really see how he’s all that wrong.
  
  The opportunity to actually do something about it has come and gone many times, but it’s been held unsettled as a wedge issue for political reasons.
  Overturning Roe has been a huge boon to the Democratic Party. They beat that drum so hard and have managed to parlay the issue into fundraising and election wins. There’s no way they’re going to protect abortion at a federal level. It’s too much of a useful motivator for those whose life it could destroy.
More projection, he just can't help himself.

I mean, if they didn't, they would have fought harder to get Obama's nominee through.
He's not wrong. He's probably saying it for the wrong reasons, but the statement itself is not untrue.

Democrats can't actually solve any of the issues they campaign on since the more things they actually solve, the fewer issues they have to make their right-wing, milque toast corporate candidates appear distinct from the GOP.

Doing things like legislating abortion, reforming healthcare, protecting minority rights, fixing our broken immigration system etc. would mean they then have to start looking into the real fundemental issues like campaign finance reform and repealing Citizens United and stuff.
- Pass that to the left, not right.
  
  I don't think it matters which way the blunt goes as long as nobody's bogarting.
  
  I could be wrong though, I've never actually partaken, just hung out.
