I think they need to march on Washington and demand the files be released. Go straight to the capitol building and just walk in like they did last time they didn’t get what they wanted. I mean obviously nothing bad happened las time because all those folks were pardoned because it was all a hoax. They weee peacefully touring the building.
Anyway, they should do that again.
-
Oh, wild. I expected them to put the investigation of Trump's molesting teenagers above any party power-plays. Nobody could have predicted that they'd protect a rapist just because he does everything they've been wanting to do for fifty years.
-
Getting Played is the only thing MAGA is good at. Relationships, politics, cars, you name it.
They love to scream about how cool they are, but they don't realize the whole world is laughing at them.

RAM Trucks have entered the chat.

I have been going to Home Depot constantly this summer. A lot of my self-care/hobby time involving wood working and construction for the past several months.
I always love the visual of me, computer nerd wearing business casual, precision loading 8ft lumber into the whole length of my old beaten up Mazda3 while half the other customers in their clean polos head to their sparkling pristine $80,000 emotional support commuter RAM trucks with their latest convenient prepackaged "manly" products. Or like one thin piece of wood or trim -- the thing they spent an extra $50,000 on their vehicle to be able to do.
I don't mean to act like I am above being a consumer whore though. I have gotten myself a bunch of nice new tools in the process and have regretted nothing.
And this probably goes without saying, but I am talking about the consumer/homeowner type customers, not the actual work vehicles loaded with tools that pull up to the special "pro" entrance.

Holy shit. I don't have cable/live TV, but I recently signed up for espn to watch some college football. The Ram commercial plays constantly, and it is mind-blowingly bad. Commercials are so fucking cringe now.

Proudest marks on the planet.

These MFers have gotten played for over 15 years. At this point the US should start investing in mental health based state hospitals because these people's brains dont work. Im not trying to be funny or malicious ... it is very sad, they have something wrong with them. Trump derangment syndrome is a real thing ... just not how MAGA thinks it is.
-
Now remember that Carter wanted better mental healthcare, and Reagan nixed it
-
They've been planning this for longer than 15 years. The Citizens United ruling just allowed them to put it into turbo mode and here we are. This is what happens when you legalize bribary.
-
It's called propaganda, and they are so deep in the Kool-aid their ears are blue.

-
That's where things are at for now; anything the GOP does to try to make it go away will make it worse.
Yes, people are leaving MAGA over this, and many others are less vocal than they were. Not everyone, but MAGA doesn't have to shrink much before it's no longer a political force.
-
It doesn't matter whether or not people "leave MAGA" , it matters how they vote. Are they fed up enough with it all that they would vote for a "Liberal"? Even one who's not at all Liberal , but just has a "D" after their name? If not, then their "leaving MAGA" is just a temper tantrum with no practical effect.
-
They don't have to vote at all. And absence of a vote is still helpful.
-
That's a very narrow way of looking at democracy. Voting is only one thing you can do to affect change. It's arguably not even the best way.
Since Trump took office, members of Congress have been talking about getting death threats if they don't do everything Trump says. This has had a real effect on what Congress has done in response. To a certain extent, members of Congress always get death threats, but the amplitude seems much, much higher than it has ever been. This has had a real effect on what they've done against Trump--both GOP and Dems alike.
If MAGA stops their support, then that goes away, and it will have direct impacts.
-
It matters if we get some real reformers running and not controlled opposition.
-
Do you guys still think you are going to get to vote? That's cute. Have you not been paying attention?!
-
-
They aren’t leaving MAGA, they’re leaving the GOP. They still want to do project 2025, etc.
And I still don’t think they actually believe Trump is involved.
But yes about the voting thing. However, the dems have lost a crap tonne, so it might even out. :(

If I click this, am I again going to find that "maga turns on Republicans" is again just three or four angry magas on Truth Social or X?
-
Don't forget the slight dismay some podcasters will have till they slowly start to rationalize and walk it back. I'll admit it's more fun watching the mind fuck in real time with narration.

why do journalists keep referring to Twitter as X?
it's just not going to happen, and you lose credibility
-
If you hate Musk, call it “X.”
X has poorer brand recognition and poorer brand sentiment than Twitter.
-
Dumbass that’s not how it works
-
-
Because it changed its name... like what would be the point of calling it Twitter when it's literally x.com now?
How do you lose credibility for calling a product by its name? What do you mean it's not going to happen? It's already happened. You can call it a stupid rebrand (I agree), but you can't pretend it didn't happen... Twitter doesn't exist anymore.

George Bush..... Foo foo fool me a one hundred and seventy third time.... You can't fool me again... Yeah that's a saying we have in Texas.
-
That was actually a rare moment of quick thinking on his part. The media would have loved to have a sound bite of him saying, "shame on me."
-
It’s hard to say how that would have played out. You defend it by saying “that’s a common saying I was quoting.” And see how long that plays out in the news cycle. Yet here we are 20+ years later joking about his stumbling over this simple expression. Is that better or worse than if the news had the “shame on me” sound bite on repeat for a few days? Which we most likely would not be talking about right now? I don’t know.

turns out maga are like regular people, just much slower
-
These MAGAts keep hoarding all the "fell for it again" awards....
-
Ha ha, what do you call 3 prez shit candidates in a row from dems?
Barak was a pos too btw, but he had game.
From hillary to biden to kamala and we have the same establishment in charge, worse and unpopular as ever, and you think the magas are the only ones falling for it again?
Wake up and help get real candidates, populist ones, or enjoy republican rule now rigging elections.

MAGAts do nothing but getting played.

Hurrrrrrrr
They would love that though, fascist dream uniforms are always covered in medals like soviets.
They're participation ribbons, but I don't disagree with your comment.
Just realized this guy reminds me of Dale Gribble.
Same applies to democrats
Le "both sides bad" has arrived, everybody clap
