The billionaires on stage at his inauguration werenโt there to bow down to Trump. They were there to let the world know who was really running things. Trump is the chaos agent they needed to achieve that goal.

I hope no one thinks calling them liars is some sort of fresh gotcha.
Just like everyone else in his orbit.
Theyโre in denial that THEY were the ones pitching Trump as anti-war, anti-interventionist, what have you, when thereโs nothing about Trump or his history that justified that belief. Heโs been a serial liar all his life. Since 2015 heโs promoted violence as a solution.
Fuck them. THEY KNEW.
The elite media establishment were shocked and aghast, of course, at President Trumpโs lack of decorum, and talked about it for days afterwaโฆ
โฆwaitโฆyou mean they didnโt?
To be clear, Iโm talking about the stand-pat moderates who keep mentioning distractions and refuse to confront the rampant fascism.
And please donโt believe they actually care about gas prices. Itโs just that cost issues are the only thing their donors will let them talk about.
I was working in N. Alberta and somebody must have been feeding it (which we werenโt supposed to do). I was parked at a clearing and it flew down and landed on my mirror. I rolled down window and it didnโt even flinch. Very bold and pleased with itself.

Clunky prose. Get that man an editor.
Ravens, you say?
So thatโs a yes, then.
It all happened so fast!
Self-immolation isnโt really accurate. The majority of the people donโt want this. It took a few decades but now thereโs a minority class with enough control over civic processes that they can act with impunity.
The vast majority of the working class are in cities. They come in all races, genders and ethnicities, yet to hear the NYT tell it, working class only seems to mean angry underemployed white men in the heartland who hate Democrats and rightly so.
And itโs consistently urbanites on the liberal/left being scolded to reach out and โunderstandโ non-urbanites who vote RW in large numbers. I canโt remember a single time when the reverse was asked of the suburban/rural demo by a politician or op-ed writer.
You are so fucking stupid
Ok silly goose. Looks like you agree with me.
โI voted for her because the gun was to my headโ
Exactly my point. I applaud your sense of responsibility.
Youโre a nihilist who finds liberals cringe. I get it. Thanks . The world thanks you too.
Yes. I. Know. You. Did.
Doesnโt matter. Youโre going out of your way excuse the inexcusable.
Iโm not screeching. Youโre telling on yourself. Iโm a nobody. But you have a platform and over 200,000 followers. You had influence. You knew the consequences. You actually could have helped.
Yes I know all this. What made you think I donโt?
Thatโs actually true. Itโs more than true of someone with over 200K followers. Itโs like you almost get it.
Although I would say โadvise and encourageโ rather than โbadger and nagโ.
Yes, Iโve always thought someone who says โBlusky bubbleโ must be a bit dim, so Iโm not surprised.
โRelatively mildโ, he chin-stroked while the world burned.

It was the voters job to defeat Trump, not critique whether she was the perfect candidate.
I like Kamala, but come on, it was pretty easy to predict.
He is his own government, the fucking asshole!
Yes, cynicism is easy and fun, but I was looking for a serious answer.
