Has anyone ever fucked up the political battle following an attempted coup as badly as Biden and Merrick Garland?
Lots. The beer hall putsch, for one.
Hitler served some time in prison, so it wasn't as bad as this fiasco.
The Prison time actually improved his standing in radical circles and also gave false credo to his ramblings in Mein Kampf.
America should have a day of love for trump
America is about to have an anti-democratic felon rapist who tries to rewrite history as its leader.
I think everyone should stop and take a moment to grasp where we are as a nation, but we all know the people that really need to do that, won't.
Honestly, I don't see anything but decline for this country in our lifetimes. Americans simply aren't up to the task of responsibly maintaining a democracy. It's truly shameful.
Like 2 inches away from a very different timeline. Why the fuck did that guy have to miss?
Not sure how much it would have changed... could have been that he would become a martyr and the maga crows would only rally more around Vance or whoever came next :/
Don't let perfection get in the way of progress.
Good point
Look, this is how people like him view love. This is how fascists view love.
I'm going to protect them whether women like it or not.
His idea of "love" is being in total control and being able to abuse you for crossing him.
You want a better example, watch the connoreatspants stream with Adrian Dittman/Elon Musk and listen to what he has to say about human relationships. Thinks modern women has unrealistic standards, but speaks about all relationships being performative to get what you want out of them. He thinks Hawk Tuah represents the downfall of western civilization. Blecch.
Makes sense for a rapist to conflate domination through violence with love, I guess.
I wonder how Mike Pence felt about all that love?
It wasn't a day of love.
It was a day of "I'd love to see these fuckers go to jail" I guess.
Let's love him right the fuck back, then.
This just in: Trump beat his kids.
Don Jr. was born out of “a day of love” — between Ivana and Vince McMahon
President Biden countered in an op-ed
Did he also wag his finger disapprovingly?
Odds are in 100 years it will be remembered as a day of love, and anyone who said different is dead and forgotten.
Victors write history.
