Clearly we need to see for ourselves how this kind of governance plays out. Those 2 inches could ironically end up being the thing that saves us from fascism.

Kia, Nissan, and Hyundai all make EVs you can buy in the US. So do Rivian, Ford, and Chevy. There’s probably more that I’m forgetting.

There’s a fair amount of EVs on the market in the US that aren’t Tesla’s or Chinese. It’s a market segment growing every year.

Do you have any idea how much utterly reprehensible behavior has been excused by the phrase “they can quit any time they want”? It’s only true in a vague sense, much like the phrase “there’s nothing stopping you from starting a business and becoming a millionaire”. Both of which can be easily disproved by even a shallow understanding of how the world actually functions.

So your argument is that Donald Trump is not an adjudicated rapist?

It’s not a lie at all but OK

We already know Trump is a rapist who likes underage girls. That has been proven without a doubt on multiple occasions. What does hanging out with another guy who does so change, especially since that’s another thing we’ve already known for years?

Yeah with one of these

There’s more than one way to get rid of billionaires. Taxing them is the best remedy they could hope for.

You had to know that this comment would end up with one downvote at one point or another lol

Green energy sure, but what are you referring to when you say reducing income inequality?

Mamdani’s election is encouraging but let’s not jump the gun and call NYC socialist. There are a million reasons why implementing his policy proposals will be difficult. Now is not the time to become complacent. We started the race strong but the finish line is nowhere in sight.

Not the thin little bitch fibers were talking about for home use anyway. Need some of those thicc subsea fibers for that.

The Middle East, obviously

I have had several Trump voting friends tell me they would have voted for Bernie Sanders instead if it was an option. I think we misunderstand at least some of those voters. If progress is not on the table some percentage of people will vote to burn it all down. It’s not the choice I would make but it is consistent in its own unique way.

You do not want a constitutional convention in this political climate. Amending the constitution requires 3/4 of state legislatures to ratify the amendment. Considering a solid majority of states have Republican controlled legislatures, the only things we’re likely to get from a convention are amendments banning DEI initiatives and trans people in sports, or something even worse.

I think everyone knows where we go from here. We’re just not supposed to say it out loud.

Are you trying to make sense of a MAGA soundbite again? They don’t exist to make sense.

Why wouldn’t he continue to do what works?

I don’t think it’s that simple. I know young people who emigrated from Ukraine and still have family there that voted for Trump in 2024. I would wager that they care more than you or I do what happens in Ukraine. It didn’t stop them from voting for Trump.
