If we're re-litigating 2024 again, we can get as much of it out on the table as possible, but getting it all out on the table is pretty much impossible.

Fascist technocrat billionaires own our MSM, social media, the entirety of the Repubican Party and a good chunk of the Democratic Party. We know that several MAGA twittler accounts are populated by Russian, Indian and Chinese propaganda farms/bots. The LA Times, WaPo and NYT are owned by billionaire fascists. Fox "news," OAN, Newsmax and many smaller online sources of disinformation dominate the conservative narrative. There is no liberal media, the entire discussion is ALWAYS centered on Repubican talking points, even the ones seeking to provide an alternative voice. We're always talking about what Repubicans want to talk about.

HRC had 25 years of baggage, fueled by these narratives. Harris is mixed, Indian and black, and a woman. She also has a record in California politics, as Attorney General and as a Senator. She was replaced by a man, as was Dino Feinstein. I miss Barbara Boxer, honestly. Geraldine Ferraro can demonstrate just how eager people are to elect women into the White House. There is a heavy, Christian-based, aversion to women as leaders in this country. There is also an extremely racist history in America - Repubicans are still talking about the Obamas ... electing a black president in the USA is still unforgivable, there is literally no way we would see a black woman in the seat of power ... so much so, that we saw Repubicans elect a convicted felon and adjudicated rapist.

The USA is also not ready to elect a Jewish president, which is why Bernie never stood a chance. Biden, a devout Catholic, was never going to be accepted by the Evangelical conservatives ... all that klanning and history of anti-Catholic sentiment can only be overcome by fringe Catholics who espouse ultra-fascist ideology (like the wingnuts in SCOTUS).

The Christian right believes in trad-wives ... most of them hate women in politics, but if they have to accept women in politics, they MUST be hateful, cruel people. You know, puppy killers, conspiracy theorists and gun nuts.

Notice how we're not seeing migrant caravans in the news anymore? That's not because they don't exist, it's because Repubicans don't have a need to stoke the xenophobic fears anymore.

The egg prices crisis was tied to bird flu supply chain issues. In general, Americans are not smart, so when the media ran all those stories about inflation vibes, it was easy to target the Democrats.

Mass Deportations Now! was a big reason why Latinos hopped on the FDT train - again, Americans are not smart, so all those Latinos could legitimately have thought that FDT wasn't lying about deporting only the bad guys, and not abuela the housekeeper.

Swing voters have believed, for decades now, that they have a shot at being billionaires themselves, and that immigrants and poor people are the reason they're not all billionaires already. That strong unions are bad. That Democrats don't listen to them. Suddenly, they feel betrayed, LOL. So many Americans are not smart, and resent being reminded of this so much, that they'll elect a rapist felon because he "speaks his mind," and to "own the libs."

Things were bad during and after Covid. Entitlement and the speed of recovery fueled this sentiment. The whole world suffered. We had it MUCH better than other countries, but the arrogance, idiocy and impatience of conservatives dominates our politics.

Wedge issues rule the day. FDT and Repubicans are currently defending pedophiles, which will be their doom in 2026 and beyond. They're breaking all the expensive eggs, but don't have a clue how to make an omelet. I won't underestimate Hakeem Jeffries and Chuck Schumer, however ... they'll be able to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory yet ... given their current trajectory.

I don't disagree.

However, other countries also went through waves of poultry flock culling to try and mitigate avian influenza. They're still doing it even now.

I would also point out that we're in a country where people are increasingly averse to any vaccine or pharma intervention, saying things as stupid as "I don't want mRNA in my meat!"

His administration was a trainwreck literally and figuratively. Talk about being delusional.

A short list of accomplishments of the Biden Administration:

- Ended the Covid-19 pandemic, vaccinating 230 million Americans, despite the horse paste lunatics who don't understand science
- Established the American Rescue Plan - lowering child poverty, improving nutrition, protecting health care, providing emergency relief to businesses that were devastated by demented Donnie's failure to act, and more.
- Record lows in unemployment. Record job creation. Increased GDP. Thriving stock market. The United States was the envy of the world in recovering from the economic impact of Covid-19.
- Passed a bipartisan infrastructure bill.
- Inflation Reduction Act.
- CHIPS and Science Act.
- Improved the USA's standing around the world.
- Promoted labor, unions and investment in manufacturing inside the USA.
- Bolstered clean energy.
- Increased support for veterans and active military.
- Accelerated cancer research.
- Reduced crime.
- Improved health care.

Tell us how awesome the first year of FDT's Admin has been, Jeff. Explain to us all how, after 4 years of job growth, lower unemployment, lower health care costs, tax relief and overall security, your boy has made things EVEN BETTER THAN EVER! Show us the job numbers, proving how your boy is soooo much better. Show us the data, proving how disastrous Biden's presidency was. It should be easy for you.

You're a clown.
