I gained a profound knowledge of WHO I thought my friends were, WHO I thought I voted for and HOW corrupt the entire system really is. I honestly don't know if Im better off knowing this or not. It sucks!
The owning the libs part is the important thing. The specifics of what Trump has promised and done don't really matter that much. The fact that he makes your kid with the blue hair and pronouns mad matters. The fact that he stresses out the person who asked you not to use slurs about disabled people matters. The Republican electorate is just a bunch of 4chan rejects.
This. I vaguely remember a quote from LBJ (maybe?). Something like, "The poorest white man will vote against his own interests every time just so long as it hurts a black man more."
"If you can convince the lowest white man he's better than the best colored man, he won't notice you're picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he'll empty his pockets for you." Is the quote you're looking for, attributed to President Lyndon B. Johnson.

Xiphos explains it perfectly.

I'm expecting him to dangle the stimulus check in front of us when midterms get near
rukeman
I'm expecting him to cancel the midterms.

The ability to be openly racist. And "own the libs." That is all they need. Anything else is beyond reproach.

Shit it doesn't need to even hurt a black man more. It just needs to hurt them.

Pam Bondi, probably: "The DOW is over $40,000, the highest it's ever been!"

How dare you imply that a liar would lie?
