As it has been nearly a year since I last posted this here, and we have a lot of updates, I've decided to post this list again for those who are having a difficult time keeping track. Especially since the US has now started a war without even an AUMF before the editors have even had time to put up December's update, I think it prudent to keep this at the forefront of our minds.

Edit: note that this is only for his second term. There is a link to the ORIGINAL "Lest We Forget The Horrors" at the top of the unending catalogue here, and that includes trump's first term. I personally recommend downloading both as PDFs, since then they still exist if some fascist decides that this satire website is too zealously exercising first amendment rights and needs to be shut down.

I mean, the lesson is probably that it's a good idea to have a primary instead of just letting a senile old man pick his successor.

    No no, they're perfect and anyone who says otherwise who wants them to win is actually a trump supporter. They don't like to win elections by having popular policies or candiates, you just vote for them without a second thought or an opinion.

    This is such a lame attempt at a straw man. Fuck off, nobody thinks she was perfect.

    Yep, every time someone said she was going to lose for failing to be popular in a national popularity totally wasn't mocked or banned on several .world communities. You got it.

    It takes 6 months to run a primary, they had 107 days.

    Now, we could argue Biden should have bowed out sooner, which he absolutely should have, but it wasn't obvious to everyone until that shit show of a debate.

    Even then, the debate was June 27, 2024 and he didn't quit the race until July 21, 25 days later.

    It was obvious to Biden himself during his first run. One of the promises he made in 2020 was that he wouldn't run for a second term. He should have held to his word, and had a primary.
