    are you suggesting that trusting a known con man who brags about fraud was potentially a bad idea? now I’ve heard everything.

    both of you go fuck yourselves. anyone who buys their new grift can go fuck themselves as well.

    You all remember when RFK Jr. was running for POTUS and it was the most thinly veiled attempt to divide Biden/Harris voters imaginable? Good times.

    Anywho, this movement of right wing nutbags who are now against Trump and want to stop him so they can get back to doing EXACTLY what got Trump elected sure is neat, isn’t it? It sure is cool to see them as top commenters over on the very legit BlueSky.

    Translation: MAGAts who helped create and enable this entire shit show but who have lost their grift, attempt to reposition themselves for a return to some kind of power later on.

      They’re combining their powers to start a whole new grift. Make no mistake, they haven’t changed, they’re just the first rats jumping a sinking ship. Alex Jones has already turned on him, too, and is calling for his impeachment, lol

      I bet Joe Rogan will be next

        Joe Rogan always seems like someone just startled awake from a nap. But even he is like “huh, like what is up with this war in Iran, bro?”

          That’s a very generous assessment, but I assure you, he’s just a fucking idiot.

            It’s a shame, he’s probably like this from tbi’s from when he was young he doesn’t have the capacity to differentiate between fact and fiction a h ore but he has the curiosity of a scientist

              Did you ever see him on the show NewsRadio? He didn’t really seem all that different from how he is today.

              I’d like to pity him, but I just don’t have it in me

        Rogan’s already made some moves in that direction - nothing firm, but enough to pivot to (or away from) if he decides to.

    Don’t forgot MTG voted against Biden’s Build Back Better which included free community college, student loan debt relief and universal Pre-K.

    That lady doesn’t give a shit about us. She just mad Trump wouldn’t (understandably) endorse her for Georgia Senate, seeing as she’d most likely lose to Ossoff. That and the Epstein files which I believe she does care about.

    It’s a charade, they’ll endorse him and vote for him again. This is all about optics and they’ve been given permission to do this. They’ll ensnare a bunch of “reasonable” Republicans that are unhappy with trump and tease them with a few Romney types, then drop the charade and say “we know it sucks but we need to circle the wagons around Trump to defeat SoCiAlIsM”

    It’s just corralling people back into the right pasture

    They’re right, but they betrayed the US too by helping Trump gain power.

      They still are. They’re just mad white people are also getting hurt, when it was supposed to only be brown people. They’re no less horrible, deplorable white trash.

      Village idiots, or those touched by gods, have always had the capacity of always being able to speak truth to power much like the jester to the king.

      These two here are not the village idiots. They are just what we all are: late to the Stop American Nazis party.

      yeah but now they can say “Trump? I was always against Trump” when they’re peddling the next conservative fascist; just like they did about Nixon, and W. Bush… It’s a very effective strategy ^^
