If the Trump regime had a list of necessary qualifications for cabinet positions, “willing and able to lie brazenly and shamelessly” would be second only to “loyal entirely and only to Trump.”
(And as a pointed aside, I doubt that knowledge or experience would even be mentioned.)
Donald Trump is a deranged lunatic and an existential threat to the US and its citizens, and to people around the world, and that renders him unfit for office. He needs to be removed as soon as possible, while there’s still some possibility that the extensive harm that he has done and is doing might be reversed.
Like a big neon sign that says “I am a psychopath.”
It’s withholding funds for refusing to grovel at the feet of the Toddler-in-chief.
Proving that the Netflix execs don’t have the foggiest fucking idea what they’re doing.
You gain viewers by engaging them - by giving them something so interesting that they can’t be distracted.
If you dumb everything down, the most likely outcome is that rather than looking at their phones in addition to your show, they look at their phones instead of your show.
To further punish Tim Walz for saying mean things about the Toddler-in-chief.
I see a good amount of idiocracy, but more what I see is… let’s call it “lunaticracy.” It’s not just that a significant number of powerful and influential people (and their sycophants) aren’t smart - they aren’t even sane.
On the first internet forum on which I spent time, in the mid- to late-90s, there was one poster who was egregiously intellectually dishonest - who regularly resorted to strawmen and ad hominems and non sequiturs and red herrings and so on, and essentially never engaged honestly. And it was so notable that his username became the forum slang term for those sorts of tactics.
Between then and now, those tactics have gone from the exception to the rule.
claims he never saw oppression
Of course he didn’t - the oppressors never do.
claims it will be a “very bad thing” if the US becomes a minority white country
Worst case scenario, it’ll only be a bad thing for the white minority, while the privileged majority will smugly proclaim that they see no oppression.
Grok - the AI for incels.
should ≠ would
Yes.
None of which alters the fact that he’s patently insane.
Though it does certainly call their mental health into question too.
And they can whisper in his ear successfully because he’s insane.
Time to 25th Amendment this fucking lunatic.

This is class war.
The US is really in a timeline in which policy decisions that affect millions of people are made according to the whims of a petulant, vindictive manchild.
It’s as if I just woke up one morning to discover that while I was asleep, the world went insane.
That that’s a “guiding principle” doesn’t even begin to imply that it’s something in which people actually engage.
Now that you mention it though, I’d say that it’s plainly obvious that tankies fail specifically by not engaging in criticism and instead engaging in apologetics. They stubbornly and often even angrily avoid even facing, much less analyzing, the inherent issues with state “communism” and instead dedicate their time and effort to making excuses for and distracting from any and all examples of those inherent issues.
By design.
Trump’s fantasy world can’t withstand assaults by reality, so he methodically eliminates whatever bits of reality might pose a threat, and rages at and seeks vengeance on any that might still slip through.
