Republicans and Democrats in the 2026 and 2028 elections:

Republican: Never thought I'd die voting side by side with a lib-tard.

Democrat: What about side by side with a comrade?

The fact that they are still good friends with someone that actively claims(/claimed) to have supported Trump is damning for that tweetist.

And what am I supposed to take away from this? Cool, they're fine with racism and sexism but the economy is sancrosanct. Who is this appealing to/performing for?

it is depressing how much people in the US care about their little stack of chips over anything else.

When you don't have a solid social safety net, 30+ years of indoctrination of "individualism good, family and friend support bad", a medical system that is built for profit and generations of both subtle and obvious propaganda that the more money you have the better of a person you are, I can understand why people protect their small stack of chips.

Good God I hate conservatives. The most selfish people on the face of the Earth. They literally care about nothing until it affects them.

As satisfying as it is to point out this persons hypocrisy and selfishness in only caring when if affects him (and it is satisfying,) I struggle with how best to incorporate those earnestly crossing the ~~isle~~ aisle (late though it may be.)

If we have any chance of unifying our country, we’re going to have to figure out how to welcome back those earnestly recognizing the errors they’ve made. Heavy emphasis on ‘earnestly.’

Yeah it's not enough for them to realize their conclusion was bad, they need to realize the flaws that got them to the bad conclusion. Otherwise they'll easily be conned again.

I don't see most people who voted for trump having the strength of character to do that sort of introspection and reflection.

If Democrats were smart, they'd temporarily drop talking about some of the more controversial and not immediately relevant political hot topics.

Like gun control is not an immediate need at this moment in time. The focus needs to be on fixing our democracy as quickly as possible so we can get back to the actual process of governing once again instead of this shit show we've had for the last decade.

Newsom? No surprise. This is how the libs help fascism. Nobody on the left should celebrate this creep.

Too late and zero sympathy for all the fucking MAGA voters.

"Run the country like a business!"

Hires CEO who ruined every business he ever touched.

This fascist bankrupted a casino.

Mama told you the stove was hot.

[–] madcaesar@lemmy.world 7 points 3 months ago

It's worse.... Mama told you the stove was hot.... You grabbed it and lost one hand.... Then you went and grabbed it again and with the other hand...

Not even toddlers are this stupid, Republicans legit have brain damage

The difference is that this affects his voters' (the ones with any money) place in the hierarchy. If their retirement accounts zero out, they're no different from the poor people they consider themselves above and made so many choices to separate themselves from. If they introspect a little bit, they might even say "then what have I been working so hard all this time for?"

The dems become the rational alternative. These Trump voters can hold their nose and vote for a little less brutality on the trans folks and a little more DEI lip service as long as they stabilize the market.

Meanwhile ofc the dems are likely to keep 80% of the immigrant deportation policies, tax cuts for the rich, etc.

There are several fake text generators so I don't trust any 'screenshots' with only one timestamp, especially one for 1am :/ why are you both up at the same time to exchange messages that fast

I can believe exchanges like this are happening, I'm just also fully aware that people like making up fake Everybody Clapped posts too, and this strongly looks like one of them
