He looks TERRIBLE, his voice is grating, he's not very smart, he's got AOC+3, Dummies ALL, backing him, and even our Great Palestinian Senator, Cryin' Chuck Schumer, is groveling over him.

As a Canadian I know almost nothing about Zohran Mamdani, but I do know that he has more class than a man ever will who, while President of the USA, writes this, or the people who see a non-white left-winger win a democratic vote and immediately call for his deportation. The world can see this. Trump and MAGA are bringing shame on your country.

We know. We’re miserable. (Us sane people, anyway).

every day is more embarrassing than the last. i have felt shame in the past for the things our ancestors did, but there's something different about living in the midst of it. i fucking hate this place. any time i hear "well leave if you don't like it" i'm like "I FUCKING WOULD IF I COULD"

[-] [email protected] 25 points 2 weeks ago

Yep. It takes way more money than I have right now to leave. I did move less than an hour from the Canadian border though. Best I could manage.

Whatever the outcome of this presidential reign of stupid. The American system needs to fundamentally change from the ground up.

Trump is about half way to making America sink lower then North Korea on the world stage.

[-] [email protected] 21 points 2 weeks ago

He's also very hot. Very very good looking guy.

"All the (centrist fucks) are extreme leftist Marxists!"

"OMG a (milquetoast moderate) won, the Marxists are taking over!"

"Holy shit a (moderately left leaning person) won an election! It's over for America the Communists won!"

"The crazy Marxist Democrat extreme leftists have gone too far with this (standard progressive)"

...etc etc...

now we have an "actual" socialist, but the boy cried wolf so many times they can't label him anything more extreme because they already threw those words at people like... (Checks notes)... Nancy Pelosi... Lol

It's a Mayor these guys are freaking out over.

The president is freaking out over a Mayor.

That's true fear. They know we intend to use the law to put the real criminals in prison.

[-] [email protected] 46 points 2 weeks ago

To be fair, NYC is a huge city and so its mayor is a major figure in the US. The most recent population I could find was 8.8 million people, vs. the total US at 340 million. NYC is, therefore, home to 2.6% of the US population. As a polity, NYC represents more people than the 9 least populous states (Wyoming, Vermont, Alaska, N Dakota, S Dakota, Delaware, Rhode Island, Montana, and Maine) combined. In fact, there are only 12 US states that have a bigger population than NYC alone, and one of those is New York state. From a population perspective, the mayor of NYC is equivalent to the governor of Virginia. That's why everyone is freaking out about this so much. Plus he's young and very handily beat the candidate backed by the DNC establishment, showing cracks in what they assumed was a solid neoliberal core.

The irony of saying someone’s not that intelligent when it appears you don’t even know how to use punctuation.

I’m pretty terrible with punctuation but I’m not throwing stones from my glass house.

[-] [email protected] 32 points 2 weeks ago

His writing is terrible but his incoherent rambling responses to questions are even worse. Not answers, responses.

Trump and the Republicans are now calling him a communist and the GOP are asking Trump to revoke his citizenship and deport him under the Communist Control Act signed by Eisenhower in 1954. I think it's even money that Trump tries it.

[-] [email protected] 32 points 2 weeks ago

I think it's even money that Trump tries it.

Considering he is already illegally deporting people and illegally trying to revoke birthright citizenship, you are more optimistic than I.

Remember when people didn't get elected because they weren't "presidential" enough?

The leader of Americans everyone.

[-] [email protected] 36 points 2 weeks ago

He may be in charge, but he's not a leader.

Not my leader, I actively don't do anything he says.

I like how they've gone full mask off and given up on the anti-semite attacks and are just calling anyone not calling for Gaza to be ethnically cleansed a Palestinian like it's an insult. Not even hiding the Islamophobia any more.

It's also double funny that he's calling fucking Schumer a Palestinian, it's like calling Biden a communist, which he also probably said. It just goes to show no matter how much the dems try to moderate to accommodate the conservatives they'll always be the enemy.

Calling that disgusting snake Chuck Schumer the Palestinian senator is pretty hilarious, given where he stands on the genocide.

[-] [email protected] 32 points 2 weeks ago

Weird too because Shumer did not endorse Mamdani. Only a "congratulations". But in Trump land anything goes

[-] [email protected] 42 points 2 weeks ago

Looks terrible, his voice is grating, he's not very smart. Who do those words make me think of? DJT and RFKjr win in a landslide.

Trump declares Democrats have crossed the line because the outcome of an election didn't end like he wanted it to.

Now I look back at about 8 years of Republicans crossing line after line...

He looks terrible.

This is a racist pointing out someone's brown skin.

His voice is grating.

RFK JR

He's not very smart.

My dog is smarter than Donald Trump. Literally.

So anyway, the person saying this is a felon rapist traitor who has repeatedly violated the Constitution. But hey, it's a racist dog whistle and conservatives LOVE that shit.

The tighter they squeeze, the more systems slip through their grasp.

[-] [email protected] 23 points 2 weeks ago

He's prepping up the fascist transition for the midterms, and it couldn't be any more obvious. If it isn't outright theft it's going to be voter suppression and voter manipulation on an entirely different scale. It's so ridiculous to think the US is a democracy anymore, at this point the whole country is a confidence game and a scam that's just mobilizing the capital of the people who they already have scammed against new targets.

Trump says somebody else is not smart

[-] [email protected] 18 points 2 weeks ago

I am genuinely and continuously exasperated with the reality that this man is president of the United States. And that millions of Americans voted for him. I'm genuinely unsure which I respect less.

[-] [email protected] 18 points 2 weeks ago

Lol stay mad loser. Maybe if your weren't an old fuck from the 0.01% pushing a cynical, half assed fascist agenda that no one likes, socialists communists would be getting this much attention.

Everything else aside, I'm laughing at the thought of Schumer learning that Trump called him "our great Palestinian senator"

Actually AOC+3 only applies on a nat20, you know better Donnie.
