Incomprehensibly reckless has been their default choice of action for quite some time now
The MAGA murder bill
Almost sounds like its designed to cause a crime spree by and within the Republican base, who will be hit harder than anyone else, and perhaps that can be spun into a Reichstag Fire moment by the administration.
Not incomprehensible at all. They want to fuck shit up so private equity can swoop in and buy up our broken society for pennies on the dollar.
Next dude who runs on federalizing tons of shit is gonna do well.
Well, i reckon the next guy or gal to do that will be epstiened
Why do they not care if their base dies? Like during covid, they let them die and encouraged behavior that would kill them. What is the point?
They don’t plan on having voting be a thing anymore. They’re not concerned with needing their base. Lots of undemocratic countries have “voting” where somehow Fearless Leader always comes out on top with 95% of the vote. That’s where we are headed.
With the recent choice by Florida republicans where they cancelled elections for the city of Miami. They have made it pretty damn clear elections are a thing of the past. Expect more elections to be cancelled, especially in fascist controlled areas and even more so when the Supreme Court of Fascism rubber stamps it.
Any remaining delusions of this country being a real democracy are dead and gone now.
It’s interesting that the US has civil war both at its beginning and at its end.
I suspect it illustrates some “ring of fire” that surrounds the US.
One could call it the “biggest” suicide note in history.
(i got this phrase from castlevania, iirc, where a heartbroken lord starts to wage lots of wars to force others to kill him, because he no longer wants to live, but for some reason is unable to just die without somebody else’s actions.)
It’s now called the “Well, We’re All Gonna Die Act”.
Of course they had to do this or Trump would sic his cult on any Republican who voted against it. How would these Republicans be able to stay in government and milk the public for cushy lifestyles? I mean my god some of them slightly missed beach vacations for this, they work so hard!
/Vomit.
There are a LOT of republicans against this bill too. It’s only the wealthy 1% that aren’t effected by the anti-environment policies that are for it.
Only enough to get 3 out of 53 Republican Senators to vote against it. That’s a few percent. Not enough to stop it, which is what matters
There are always one less than what would be needed for the bill to fail/pass. They discuss it and say we can have 3 no votes. You, you and you can vote no this time to show that we are not all the same.
You know the Rs negotiated who got to vote against, making sure it was no more than three.
And even if it was more than three, they’d just propose the same bill again, until it passes
I mean their constituents. Some republicans don’t have to ever worry about being reelected since their area is so gerrymandered.
One explanation is that they don’t understand just how unpopular the bill is apt to be when it takes effect. Many Republicans rely on party-aligned media for their news, and these sources have mostly cheered the bill while ignoring its downsides. Both chambers of Congress have rushed the bill through with minimal scrutiny, shielding members from exposure to concerns. Even the White House seems unaware of what exactly it’s pressuring Congress to do. Yesterday, when a reporter asked Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt about the megabill’s proposed tax on wind and solar energy, she appeared totally unfamiliar with the measure and punted the question. (The tax provision was later removed.)
Where will this bring america in 20 years? Republicans don’t ask that question because to them, “in 20 years” is a meaningless category. that simply does not exist. the future does not exist, according to them.
Death cult
