The American electorate could quite conceivably be comprised of the most ignorant people on the planet. Those with half a brain were screaming from the rooftops that Trump was dangerous and a dictatorship was right around the corner. Well... Here we are. It's 1932 Germany all over again.

In an era where states are progressively coming up with ways to generate revenue through cannabis related products, Texas is vowing to eliminate this revenue stream. Texas is a backwards state hell bent on returning to the "good old days" of the 1950's. Crazy. www.expressnews.com/politics/art...

I've seen some LW pundits complaining about Biden pardoning Hunter because it will give Trump free reign to pardon whoever he wants to pardon. Since when does Trump have any guardrails? He's going to do WTF he wants. An aging Father prevented his only remaining Son from going to prison. WTG Joe!

This is precisely the kind of thing that would have disqualified you during the vetting process in any sane administration. With the WH, House, Senate, SCOTUS, and immunity, Trump thinks he do whatever the flip he wants. This country is off it's axis and I'm beginning to think I want no part it.

Bought and sold... Fun fact: When Pam Bondi was Florida Attorney General, her office was prepared to bring charges for fraud against Trump University, which had bilked a slew of Florida victims. Donald Trump gave her a $25,000 campaign contribution and she ordered the investigation closed.

My least favorite kind of mind fuckery is when racist people call Black people racist for calling out THEIR racism. Our entire life experience makes us uniquely qualified to call it out when we see it. And believe me, we let a LOT of shit slide.

Just got off X. I really should have known better than to try and reason with someone who insisted that the term R-tard wasn't offensive and that all women were C-words. Trump has emboldened this behavior and he isn't even in office yet. I fear for those here that are not white male landowners.
