For weeks, Trump and members of his administration, some of whom spread anti-Democratic conspiracy theories about Epstein, have been trying to quiet the MAGA base after the FBI declared there was no client list and that the disgraced financier died by suicide. The same manosphere that boosted Trump isn’t letting his administration off the hook on Epstein, even as Trump has tried to dismiss the whole thing as a hoax.
The young men in his base aren’t doing better economically, and also feel stabbed in the back by Trump’s refusal to RELEASE UNREDACTED COPIES OF THE EPSTEIN FILES.
Imagine being a young person who’s so fucking dumb they couldn’t immediately tell that Trump is a worthless piece of shit the first time they saw him

Cosigned - me, because this shit you just said is absolutely on point.
This is what I absolutely despise about western culture, especially in the US. The grindset. Everyone just wants to be pointlessly wealthy. Accumulating wealth has become something of a gamescore now, and everyone needs to be grinding these fucking coins to rank high on the leaderboard when they die.
People are no longer happy, too busy running after the gilded carrot.
Being rich is nothing to be impressed by. When rich people use their money to help people, that’s something to praise them for

I feel like for a lot of people they thought the status-quo was so dogshit that they voted to burn it all down, so to speak.
Notwithstanding the fact that the American status-quo is actually pretty damn good compared to most of the world and propaganda influenced people’s opinion on that.
I could buy that for the first term. But now? You gotta be dog shit stupid.
Yes. A lot of people are dog shit stupid. We need to do something about that.
You can’t, the time for tthat was in the 1970s, it’s now a a rolling ball of dog shit stupid that’s only getting worse. Then entire thing has to fall apart and then who knows what happens amd what the fall out will be.
Can’t, or you’re too lazy to try?
That might have been an excuse in 2016, but sure as Hell wasn’t one in 2024!
I remember being young and looking at all US presidents in disgust… mind you, these were bush Clinton, etc, they were all trash presidents and horrible human beings. I distinctly recall throwing a pair of scissors at my tv in disgust when Clinton was talking. Left a nice scratch on the glass. Even he was absolute trash.
Trump? I still cannot comprehend how any sane person of any age above 5 can look at that shit stain and not see an absolute horrible narcissistic monster.
Propaganda is a helluva drug
