What did I say? Dare to be stupid.

2016: "We're not underestimating him. Derp."
2024: "We're not underestimating him. Derp."

If you really think he's that incapable, then how the hell did you lose to him and what does that say about you?

But hey, keep on underestimating him. You unwittingly helped him get elected twice, maybe you'll end up helping him finishing off the country too.

"Yea, I'm not buying that whole 3D chess thing."

You should. Maybe if you had, you might have had a chance at defeating him.

"He hasn't done anything yet."

Congrats on winning the dumbest post of the year award. The guy has been elected President twice and has deliberately caused a lot of chaos and havoc. WTF you talking about hasn't done anything yet?

"Again, someone please explain to me how this man is not insane."

By definition, trolls are less insane than the people who cannot control their impulses to constantly react to and feed the troll. A literally insane man would not be able to do what Trump has done. If you think he's insane, you're underestimating him. Again.

"The reasons for policies that encouraged DEI jiring are quickly reppearing under aaaatrump's racist, homophobic, transohobic, xenophobic leadership. All people in those categories should realise that under Trump y'all are now officially 2nd Class citizens. I do have to wonder Though, how many of you refused to vote for Kamala?"

I've heard quite a few people in those categories say they prefer bigots to be open about their bigotries rather than hiding it. I guess it makes it easier for those specific people to navigate a world that they're already cynical about?

"other Agency's still wasted our money"

Please use proper English.

"I predict they are going to have to jettison the LBGTQ and gay agenda in order to be able to win again."

They'll at least have to scale it back, so it doesn't look like it includes QAnon anymore.

"oh wow.....

you dumb fvkn turds think ... each one of you fk dopes ... you'll lie your lying a## off ... cause dishonesty is your middle name.

Without looking at the names, it would be hard to tell if this was a template for a right wing troll or left wing troll.

Yes, many Democrats would have opposed this legislation six months ago. Both major parties hypocritically flip their standards on a dime when it suits them. It's really tedious.

In before Carville is accused of being the plant and a 'DINO'.

Like I said earlier in the first plane crash thread, we're still in the early stages of eff around and find out.

Note: I have no problem with all government agencies being audited to identify and cut waste, including USAID, but using a sledgehammer instead of a scalpel is just stupid and malicious.

The Empire Never Ended

"Censored proves daily he's nothing more than a Republican pretending to be a Democrat.

Democrats are champions of civil rights and equality. It's what's carried the party since the 60s.

If trans rights are what cost democrats the election, then the party is dead and perhaps this is what America deserves."

Dare to be stupid. Republicans have been painting "trans rights" and fundamentally infringing on the rights of biological women, and you haven't even tried much less succeeded in making a counterargument. Trump has successfully trolled you again into taking the opposite extreme position of the one he posited.

I've seen some of these on my Facebook friends' pages. I would call them out, except I don't think they even care if they're spreading misinformation. It's the idea and 'feeling' of it that counts. Meanwhile, I have other friends and relatives doing the same thing, mindlessly reposting anti-Trump stuff without any critical thought. It seems critical thinking is dead, or least hibernating, across the board these days.

"Why do people think this is a backfire?"

It's called clickbait. It's like all those articles that say Putin was humiliated or received a "major setback" by something that happened, and then when you read the actual article, the something turns out to be totally inconsequential in stopping him from what he's doing. I've long suspected articles like this aim to help people like Trump and Putin while profiting off of the gullible people who click on the headlines because it makes them feel good.

Focus? Good luck with that. ;)

"The day you sign the papers you own it."

Hmm, that sounds like the same argument Republicans used when they blamed Obama for Bush's economic fallout, or Biden for the mess Trump left behind. You can't have it both ways.

I think we are still in the early stages of the eff around and find out phase.

I don't know how this case can even be brought, considering he's a public fig.

"White supremacy in action"

Well done. Keep fighting stupidity with more stupidity. I'm sure that's going to be constructive in helping with the challenges we're faced with.

/S

"You guys are wild. Accidents happen. You sound like the crazy people Trump supporters say you are making this political. Y'all really need to focus your energies."

I feel your frustration, but you're talking to people who still haven't figured out that using the same playbook from 2016 still isn't working. They don't appear to have the capacity to focus their energies, just react like Pavlov's dogs and drool when they hear a bell.

"Rein and Legally are always free to move abroad if they hate the country this much."

That won't stop them from trolling, any more than anyone else on this site who feel like the behavior of "the other side" justifies their own buffoonery.

"I appreciate your sense of reasonableness. But"

That's an unfortunate epitaph.

"Oh no. I agree with SSentinel..."

Swastika sticker for you.

"Loose Monkey"

^^ that sounds kind of judgmental.
