There's an old Soviet joke:

A man goes to a newspaper stand every day, buys a copy of Pravda, glances at the front cover, curses, and throws it away.

After a few weeks of this the seller just has to ask what's going on: "why do you always look at the cover but never inside?"

"I'm looking for an obituary."

"An obituary? But those are in the back!"

"Oh no, the obituary I'm looking for will be on the front page."

Definitely. But don’t count on things automatically getting better after. Too many other unsavory characters waiting in the wings

New years was a practice round. The moment I see he's dead in the news I'm banging pots and pans and cheering at the top of my lungs.

Same

He cannot cancel elections. Elections are state run, congresspeople’s terms still end, and there is no law that says otherwise. We can just go the fuck ahead without him.

He's not a patriot, he's a power hungry man-child and he's called for the dissolution of the Constitution because it's in the way of him holding into power.

Not that I disagree with the message, but have seen this same comment on other posts, word for word, is kinda weird...

They also have to move fast before Trump is unable to stand in front of a camera. His dementia has clearly become worse over the past 12-months.

If America had only had a functioning justice system, I could sleep peacefully! I'm pretty sure I'd have insomnia no matter what though

Last I read Trump said it was to be talked about in two months or in twenty days. He said both these things in consecutive sentences, so who the fuck knows. It'll have to be before the midterms regardless.

I'm curious - what difference do you really think the release of the Epstein files is going to make? People have made it clear they're okay with pedophilia and child abuse, as long as "the good guys" are the diddlers. So what difference is the full release of the Epstein files going to make to the average 10-second-attention-span propaganda buyers, really?

That's just a bonus.

What Trump really wants is "justification" to turn the military on his enemies. I've seen so many people say "He doesn't need an excuse," but right now, he and the people around him clearly still think he does and they're itching for one. So they keep trying to manufacture it with these ICE escalations hoping the "Radical Left" will start a violent riot they can crack down on and he can finally truly be the Strongman he's always wanted to be.
