The Doom Thread: Gloom, Despair, Agony

In Soviet Russia, expectations lower you!

 

“The worst is not So long as we can say “This is the worst.”
So says King Lear.

Thankfully, I am experiencing enough back pain at the moment that all else seems trivial. I blame it on artificial turf.

 

Old Man indoor? That shit has my number!

 

How can we be full of doom when Matt Gaetz is the new AG?

Let's get weird, baby! USA! USA! USA!

 

Some nice family-man drug lord to be in charge of the DEA next?

 

Maybe Gaetz can do both!

 

You're saying Senate Republicans will develop a backbone and stand up to the orange one?

 

And when they don't confirm him, they get the wrath on TruthSocial.

"How DARE that FAKE AND PHONY (politician name) NOT confirm Matt Gaetz to office! VOTE HIM OUT!!! HE IS NOT A PATRIOT! MAGA!!!"

(I'd never do it, but if Donnie needs to pay someone to write his posts, I mean, my satire *is* fairly damn good, isn't it?)

 

Wasn't there a rumor that Apartheid Clyde has threatened to bankroll the primarying of any GOP member of congress who does not fall completely in line with the MAGA agenda?

 

Not enough Caps. Also a sentence. And you didn't make.up any cofefe new words.

 

It's covfefe - the least you can do is spell it correctly to show proper respect to dear leader!

 

I made up a NEW WORD.

 

And you are being recognized more and more for it!

 

Bigly recognition! The Most recognition! More recognition than any Other President in History! Period!

 

Wrong thread, bruh.

 

No kidding. The new board is going to be doing a lot of purging of senior military leadership. At first they'll just be fired and retired. Then they'll be "retired". Then they'll have "accidents". https://www.abc27.com/news/trump-dr...et-up-board-to-oust-generals-en-masse-report/

 

Michael Harriott as usual nails it...

OPINION: Did white women, Hispanic men or the Democrats' messaging failures doom the Harris-Walz campaign? Or were we just crazy to believe this country was ready to elect a Black woman as president?

Then again, there is also no explanation for why people who claim to be pro-life love guns and hate universal health care. There is no reason why people who want to protect their reproductive rights would vote for the man who stripped away their bodily autonomy. There is no reason why people who love America want to censor its history. There is no logical reason why poor, uneducated whites are in love with a privileged billionaire who inherited everything he has. There is no reason why Evangelical Christians believe a corrupt, lying unrepentant sinner who can’t quote the Bible is on their side. There is no justification for why business owners believe a bankrupt grifter is good for business.

Well, maybe there is one explanation.

While watching MSNBC’s election coverage, I marveled at the panel of expert’s ability to not say racism or white supremacy. It’s almost like it’s an invisible monster that will eat them alive if they say its name.

And that is the point of this whole thing.

 

Yep. The last three months, I haven't read a wors about white supremacy. A bunch of deflecting shit about the economy, lol
