Well, trump supporters are dumb as fuck and have been led around by the nose by culture war rage bait for a decade, so yes.

Communism is pretty rad.
It'll work with his core voter base of fucking idiots.
How do you protect a democracy when 10% of your voters think the Earth is flat and 65% can’t even read at a 12th grade level when they graduate high school?
Not to mention the fact that anyone from anywhere with any agenda can build a massive platform with enough money, and we have no hate speech laws…
You mean 30% of Americans? America isn't like it is because of Trump. Trump is the way he is because of Americans.
Trump is a symptom. America is the disease.
They are reprogrammable meatbots.
Ask one of these "maga" types how and why donnie, as a conservative, got to the point of gleefully raising taxes (aka, tariffs) on all Americans at every possible chance and at such an alarming rate:
"The real Marklar understand that donnie is the true Marklar, because the Marklar view has been that tariffs are actually very Marklar and all of Marklar love them now. Only the RINOs who aren't real Marklar would say that historically tariffs are not Marklar. Anyone claiming to be Marklar and saying tariffs are impoverishing them and destroying their businesses are not Marklar enough to trust donnie's wisdom and his Great Plans. Marklar! USA! USA!"
Everything they say about things like tariffs is exactly as stupid as the above paragraph.
That's a lot of big words for these fuckwits tbh.
the dsa and piker combo is making it ridiculously easy to support this idea
just saying "healthcare" over and over doesn't cut it. get that house in order, or just be filthy commies
I wish it wasn't, I wish the Democrats would get up and fight.... Instead they're all "What America needs is a strong republican party to help keep us in check." and "When they go low we go high."
No, it's time to start seeing Republicans for what they really are. Enemies of America, Traitors to the state, and the reason everything sucks.
They really are weak aren't they.
I just want Democrats to get dirty, start owning the cons. I want them to fight like Republicans. I want a MAGA of the Left.
Schumer and Jefferies are going to sell the left out for massive right-wing funding in this campaign cycle and the next. Mark it.
Your enemy is Democrats.
To be fair schucmer and jeffries sell us out all the time. The enemy is the democrat establishment you are correct. Without changing that, there is no surviving of this US Republic.
This will be different. Just mark it and follow up.
Yeah guys the storm is coming
You sound like q right now
They're pieces of shit sellouts, but they're not going to kick that up or down a notch
Schumer and Jefferies will side with the fascists and criminalize resistance to the state, and any mention of socialism or social democracy. Mark it. Just because I don't have the time to sit down with the smooth brains and soothe their bones about the baseline authoritarianism which is represented by the Democrats as a function of the way the manage their party and the country when in power; it doesn't leave the rest of us oblivious to taking them at face value and evaluating them against deeds, not words.
Democrats act not more in the favor of the people than Republicans. They're by and large a pro genocide, pro fascism, pro corporate party. Not by what they say: by what they do. They chose to not make a clear separation in their manners of governence under all* Obama and Biden and Clinton. Democrats are largely islamaphobes. They're largely projewish supremacist. They're proethnostate when it finds their campaign. They aren't in this for you. They are in this for them.
What do you think the Kushner meeting was for? I'll give you a hint. Kushner isn't suddenly finding the light and looking to help find an anti authoritarian uprising in the Democratic party.
Disagree if you think you know better. But fucking mark it and come get your lickens later. My guess is that when it happens, they'll arrest Piker and maybe one DSA candidate (probably a male, brown, Islamic).
I didn't read that, you are a troll that abuses people. You can act normal for the people that trust you, but I know better troll.
"everything which doesn't agree with my view is a troll" and other liberal fantasies
There you go, lying about what you are for the benefit of people that haven't seen you troll people. You are a troll. We both know it. A rather dull insufferable one at that.
Maybe you are just a mean drunk that can't handle your booze.
mean drunk
Thou doth protest too much. You've also given it away who you are. Welcome back. Someone is probably going to report you for ban evasion. I don't know what happened in your early child hood such that this particular phrasing of an ad hominem is always your first attack, but it makes you stand out as for ban evasion.
I guess this is the account you hermit crabbed over to?
And if I'm dull insufferable whatever you come up with, just don't engage. Clearly my views won't have succor if that's the case.
But you and I both know that's not the case. You know how long I've been around. How I've been effective at changing people's minds by being consistent and correct in my politics even if those politics at the time are deeply unpopular. I mean I'm not the one getting serially downvoted like this particular account of yours.
What it comes to is that liberalism and liberals lost their grip by insisting the American people support a genocide when the American people opposed that. And now, the managers and ruling class of the party have also found their grips weakened, just like you have over the past two years. You aren't used to your view not being the axil around which politics rotates and it makes you uncomfortable. And while it looked like you had us in the first half, you e lost to date. I'm not the one having to crawl around in various alts trying to mask my presence.
Lotta text for being part of q anon
Ahh because Democrats sabotaging their left flank to maintains their internal fiefdoms is entirely unprecedented.
Just do as instructed and mark it. Time will tell.
Our enemies are criminal politicians.
You mean our enemy is Democrats that act like Republicans.
So our enemy is all of the Republicans and some of the Democrats that definitely need to be replaced with DSA
About as well as him getting shot in the ear.
“I don’t like the DSA,” Charles Rogers said, referring to the Democratic Socialists of America, as he left a polling station at Marion intermediate school. “I don’t like how the Democrats want to back them. Democrats used to be for the working man, but something’s changed … I do not agree with the DSA, and more Democrats are backing them with crazy ideas.”
Sounds like something a republican would say
“I like my opposition to be feckless and spineless.” - every republican ever
Be the unhinged psychotic socialists they think we are.
I just found it funny.
Not with normal people.
No.
One problem with electing dems that can't defend common sense policies like Medicare for all, or don't do a genocide is that if they don't have the communication skills to sell good policies then they don't have the communication skills to defend who they are. It's a problem of their own making.
This is a terribly written article. It contains absolutely no polling data or voter statistics, relies entirely on anecdotal evidence in the form of quotes from four South Carolina voters. At best they provide evidence Fox is engaging in a Democrats are socialist campaign but literally does nothing to support or disprove the central question in the title.
Not beyond his cult following.
Maybe for those with a room temp IQ
No.
Words like communist, anarchist, radical, and terrorist lose all meaning of these people. They say those words as meaning "people we do not like and want the state to 'deal with'".
can we stop sane washing this trash news site?
Why would he want Democrats to win?
Don’t threaten me with a good time.
Ask Overton.
