If there's one thing I've learned from twenty years in this ---- hole, it's this:

Conservatives are never happy, even when they get what they want. Especially when they get what they want.

They can admit to buyers' remorse, all they want.

But what will they do the next few times they are in the voting booth?

To bad, so sad. I feel nothing for them.

Point and laugh at the magat scum. Enjoy the ashes you voted for -----.

So, getting hurt makes MAGA remorseful?

Cry babies.

If they watch scenes from today's embarrassing for Trump/Vance presser with Zelenskyy they better have more than a little remorse.

They were warned.

He is a sociopathic compulsive liar.

It's not our fault you fell for it AGAIN.

Unfortunately, it will work exactly opposite of that. They will say Ukraine deserves to die because of Zelenskyy's disrespect of Trump.

#9 | Posted by Whatsleft at 2025-02-28 03:05 PM

Since Zelenskyy didn't kiss Trump's ***, Trump will do as he always intended and give Ukraine to Russia.

Trump spends a lot of time using the word "deal" to describe extortion.

For some strange reason, I think that all of these MAGA functionaries will get their names on ballots for any election to be held in the future. Then they will regret not having town hall events, not listening to their constituents and not growing backbones...

Trump's performance today was among the least 'presidential' or worthy of respect by any POTUS in my lifetime. He has shamed us. And the only ones who do not feel the shame are those who are too stupid to understand the gravity of what just occurred
and the lack of dignity just displayed by the so-called leader of the free world. With the entire International Press Corps watching to boot.

Today I feel less comfortable being an American. We have a disgusting, short-sighted, egotistic pig as our CinC.

hoax.

@#14 ... hoax. ...

That's a quite significant accusation.

I have two questions ...

1) what, exactly is a hoax?

2) given the response to the first question, what evidence is presented to say that it is a hoax?

#15 | Posted by LampLighter at 2025-02-28 07:34 PM

Nothing on what, exactly is a hoax?
of course not.
That would require actually examining the premise and understanding the facts.
That is way too high a burden.

#16 | Posted by YAV at 2025-02-28 09:45 PM

hoax.

#14 | Posted by shrimptacodan

Not all MAGA morons are as stupid as you, s(*&bag.

The Shrimp doth attempt to hijack the discussion, me'thinks. The faithful are beginning to realize they got royally fleeced for their support, and will perhaps eventually begin to give pause the next time they put on that #%?! stupid red hat.

I haven't got any unified theory about MAGAts as a group, but I don't believe I've ever come across a sadder bunch of whiners and complainers, anywhere, ever. They're pathetic.

#19 | Posted by Doc_Sarvis at 2025-03-02 05:52 AM

I had buyers remorse as soon as the choices were Biden, then Harris and Trump
