Trump plans to name himself chair of Kennedy Center, fire board members
  • Well I guess he's got all that spare time now that he's fixed all the problems everywhere. And he is known for having exquisite taste in art and interior design.

    (Kinda depressing that I need the /s here, but I'd hate for some magat to come along and agree with me...)

  • Own things? Is that a rich person thing I'm to poor to understand?
  • When I was a kid, people would get jobs, then stay in those jobs for years and years, getting promotions and raises. Then they'd buy things like new cars, houses, and vacations, just with the money they earned by working their jobs. So I thought that that is how life would work for me. Boy was I wrong!

  • ‘In a real sense, US democracy has died’: how Trump is emulating Hungary’s Orbán
  • I imagine a lot of them feel very threatened, for themselves and their families. There's not a lot of evidence that if maga decided to just start locking up anyone who causes them inconvenience, there would be any authority coming to your aid. It's survival at this point for them.

  • The land of the free is fast becoming a human rights wasteland. I'm still reeling from the sheer number of people who seemingly had no idea it was going to be exactly like this.

    I'm really hoping this will be the wake up call America needed to get its shit together, because if they don't, the oligarchs aren't going to stop there. They're coming for everything eventually.

  • Outcast WA politician changes name to 'Aussie' Trump ahead of state election
  • Yep. We're deep into the game of monopoly now. Someone's put hotels on those expensive properties and now it's just a matter of time until they have all the money or we just decide we don't want to play anymore. They're the only possible outcomes.

  • Outcast WA politician changes name to 'Aussie' Trump ahead of state election
  • Well I've got my everything crossed that Aussies turn out to be a bit smarter than Americans, as a whole. I'm not super optimistic, but we have a lot more to lose than Americans did. Our government still kinda works for the majority in some aspects.

  • A US Sovereign Wealth Fund Is a Bad Idea.
  • Of course it's a bad idea, they should just give that money directly to billionaires like they've always done.

    But seriously, as I've often explained to my wife, it makes no sense to put a thousand dollars into our savings account to earn 5% while we owe a thousand on our credit card being charged at 20%.

    Everyone knows a US sovereign savings account is just going to become another place for congress to steal money from.

  • Agree with your comment, OP. The entire internet seems to be filled with people engaging the fascists and trump sycophants, trying to force them to admit the hypocrisies and inconsistencies in their positions, but it's pointless. These people don't deserve that much credit or respect. Ignorance is an explanation at best, not an excuse. Anyone who voted trump in 24 is beyond redemption, no matter how much they change their tune when the harm they voted for comes to them.
