Kind of curious what percentage of registered Republicans are DITWGS.

I’m guessing it’s only like 30-40%, while another 50% are just on the side the liberals are against.

Probably something along the lines of "DING DONG, the witch is DEAD! #MAGA"

At least 800k people marched for the cause of kids not getting slaughtered. Trump tweeted about how lawyers want to work for him.

I know a lot of narcissists and sociopaths. Almost all at least make an effort to fake empathy. Trump is a 100/100 piece of garbage human.

The NRA will never acknowledge there was an armed guard present at Parkland, will they?

I’ll never understand the logic of ‘well since armed security guards who are there pretty much for explicitly one purpose doesn’t work your art teacher needs to be trained to shoot to kill’. But hey, I don’t own a gun

The NRA legit declaring war on KIDS is a road I don’t think even the most jaded could have thought they’d go down

He’s kind of authentic, really.

In the same way Bond villains are.

The all caps celebration of the Austin bomber blowing himself up.

Idk. The fact that there’s no attention paid to this and that his stated definition of bad guys can shift over time seems troubling
The definition never falls on what O'Reilly would call: The Folks. White Middle America is always a-ok with him.

He doesn't turn on his true base.

There's obvious overlap, but anti-abortion would be the other key (ideological) single-issue voter.

Is it bad that an 11 year old girl speaks more coherently in front of 800K people than the Donald does in front of a group of his minions?

POP 2020

"It's just cowardice. A real leader would have been in Washington D.C. this weekend, not at his penthouse at Mar-a-Lago. He would have had the decency to meet with a group, to see what's going on, and how important it is, and how important our children should be to us. So for all those politicians involved, it's just a dereliction of duty,"

Um, I think he'll find that the Cuban Revolution was an instance of citizens taking up arms against a tyrannical government. It turns out that armed rebels frequently just want the power for themselves after overthrowing the government!

The people in this thread are insane, MAGA is happening and a few dead kids isnt a big deal compared to DUI deaths and obesity in this country.

Pick a hill that matters, a few dead kids just doesnt matter all that much; its cold but its fact

I've personally met the AG of Louisiana not in a public setting. Dude is a lunatic and a bigot of the highest order as well as a former cop. I would have bet my life savings on that outcome if possible.
