Walter Isaacson does! I know this is three posts in a row. But I was curious. So I went to YouTube and found this. Isaacson is one of my favorite interviewers. And here he is actually the subject of the interview as Musk's biographer. It's a great interview that sheds light on why Musk is so wretched. There is even a name for it: "demon mode". Kudos to Isaacson. He actually made me feel empathy for a guy who can feel no empathy. Or at least sucks at it. And I feel empathy for three of Musk's kids. The one who died. The queer one who is alive who he treats as dead. And the one he brought to the Oval Office. I did think having his child there was a really weird thing to do, for several reasons. First and foremost because I doubt Trump really appreciated it. When did you see Trump use Barron as a prop in his first term? And I'm not a psychologist. But watching this interview my conclusion was Musk really wants so badly not to be his abusive father. Even though it matches seamlessly with the abuse his queer child says Musk dished out to her. Very sad. This just reinforces why Musk will fail. There's an argument to be made that to be great at business, you have to be a tyrant. Especially when you want to disrupt, and be the guy who takes us to infinity and beyond. But it is just a very bad match for government. People don't want "demon mode". They want stability. I think that explains why he is getting a negative reaction, quickly, and it will just get worse. Women already view him 58 % unfavorable, 33 % favorable. Men still view him 51 % favorable. But wait until he starts to talk about cutting the shit they care about. Wretched is indeed the word.

That is my favorite President Musk line. If he believed that, he would resign or be fired immediately. If he believed in democracy, or the rule of law, he would do the same. In a different post, I cited polls about the more unknown or politically vulnerable agencies. In this post I'll mention some other ones. The EPA. 62 % approval. The Postal Service. 70 % approval. As I said in another post, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau has 50 % approval, and only 19 % disapproval. Even USAID has 46 % approval, and only 30 % disapproval. After a completely dishonest attempt by Musk to say children helped by USAID are "worms" and efforts to save them are left-wing or terrorist or whatever. The good thing I can say about DOGE is that it has 42 % approval and 38 % disapproval. That's net positive, barely. So I don't think Americans oppose the idea of government efficiency. But Musk himself is now 52 % disapproval and 42 % disapproval. Buckle up, Elon. I think another crash landing is imminent. By Musk's own standards and logic, he needs to go. People do want their tax dollars spent wisely. That means not on him. It's just common sense.

Thank you for posting that. Like the whole world, that cave story and its happy ending completely captured me. I was not aware of the Musk part. And if I did see that mentioned in an article at the time I probably would have thought, "Oh, it was nice that he offered to help." The thing that jumped out at me when I recently researched why he started his war with the FAA is that he argued that delays caused by his violations of FAA safety standards were going to stop people from being able to travel to the moon. It was messianic. How many people are worried about that? House Republicans decided today we literally will take food off the table of working class families who are hurting and who use SNAP so that Musk can deduct the cost of his private jet. Can we focus on that instead of trips to the moon? That said, it is at least relatable that some guy like Musk doesn't like government regulations. Or taxes. So this has the same thing, only way more extreme. Even if I assume his submarine could have fit through narrow passages, which it sounds like it couldn't, so what? This "pedo" helped save the lives of children. But Musk had to be the messiah. I'm God. And if you thwart me you are damned. That scares me. The cruelty of it is amazing. Musk described USAID as "all worms". No mention of what Bill Gates goes to instinctively. These efforts are at the center of a humanitarian network that saves lives. And millions will die if they are fully dismantled. What makes it worse still is that article is one more piece of evidence that, even on the technological part, Musk doesn't have a fucking clue what he is talking about. He has no heart. But it was assumed that he has a brain. The idea that this guy is the genius who will make things work better has less credibility by the day.

Yes, these posts are book length. But you are bringing up ideas that have been on my mind a lot. Mark Halperin predicted that if Trump won it would result in perhaps the biggest mental health crisis in US history. The reason why is that many Democrats would not understand why. And they would feel alienated from the country they live in. I think on this a blunt and personal reaction is most helpful. So I will start with this. Give me a fucking break. I'm not saying Halperin is wrong. Maybe he is right. But the USA is the country of slavery. More recently, the USA is the country of subprime lenders and the Iraq War. (Where is @Moses when you need him?) One reason Trump won is some Democrats who do not understand why we armed Bibi The Baby Killer to slaughter Palestinian babies either would not vote for Harris, or voted for Trump in protest. What exactly about any of this is surprising to anyone? Who did we THINK we were? Most Black people seem to have reacted to Harris losing by saying, "Okay. So now we know. This is America." I did not take that to mean, "Gosh. I'm shocked!" Some alienated Black guy, or Hispanic guy, votes for Trump rather than Harris because his rent is too high. And he agrees with Trump that some guy who doesn't speak English from wherever does not deserve free shit while I suffer. If the immigrant is gonna steal my shit, that pisses me off even more. If Democrats are so smart, why didn't we read this stuff EVERY SINGLE FUCKING DAY for years? I'll be the first to admit I underestimated the problem, even though the media was reporting it. I didn't see it as being a reason Biden or Harris would lose. But now I am going to have a mental health crisis over it? I don't think so. The 64 % of Republicans who are mostly satisfied with democracy because Trump won are mostly right. At least today. We had a very hard fought and passionate election with turnout closer to the historic highs than lows. Trump won, but barely. Democracy is alive and well. I don't doubt for a second that many Republicans would throw democracy under the bus. It's not even a question. They did and do see Jan. 6th as a Day Of Love. And maybe they will destroy democracy. But they have not yet. And, even if they try to, that is an argument AGAINST withdrawing into some mental health crisis. Fight. I want to see some Democrat knock Elon Musk's teeth out. Just to prove that some insanely cruel rich fucker who torments and bullies his own daughter for being queer deserves it. About two years ago I was in La Jolla with a family member who is the most full on MAGA relative I have. She says lots of stuff that is really ignorant, even though she is whip smart. It was arguably "elitist", but I asked her if she knows who Kevin McCarthy is. She did not. She thought her "RINO" Governor, Mike DeWine, who in her mind is RINO because he is not 100 % MAGA, was an ex-Governor. She had no clue he had actually just been re-elected in an almost 2 to 1 landslide. Because like John Kasich he tends to find middle ground when can. That was the trip I decided this is not worth my time. I had told her that, as a Democrat, it was difficult to lose twice, Gore in 2000 and Clinton in 2016, in an election we would have won in any other democracy in the world, without an electoral college. She listened, and just repeated all her Jan. 6th lies. I was in LaJolla with her again two months ago. I made a point of congratulating her on Trump's victory. We had a blast. I love her. I did not mention it, but the fact that this time he actually won the popular vote actually made it easier for me. Another election where a Democrat won by millions of votes but Trump won only thanks to the electoral college might have driven me over the edge. What I did not tell my niece, who is whip smart and who I do love, is that I respect her less. When she says things that are not quite as racist as "normalize Indian hate," which she does not do often, they bother me a little more. I am close to her mother, so I understand where she gets it from. My sister lives in a Congressional district in a suburb of Chicago that now has a Black US Rep., Lauren Underwood, who I deeply admire. My sister would never vote for her, and was not a fan of Black Lives Matter. A generation ago Underwood's repeated victories would not have been possible, simply because of the color of her skin. In the big picture, Underwood's victories outweigh petty racist comments by a relative I love. Literally, when I hear something racist I can just send $20 to Underwood or Harris. Sorry, I am not going to have a mental health crisis. I am going to celebrate all the progress we have made, and fight like hell now that we are deep into the absolutely predictable backlash. And thank you, JD Vance. I think he has normalized the idea that, once in a while, I can tell these pricks how I really feel about them. Although not my niece or sister, who I love. It probably is good for my mental health to get that off my chest once in a while.

Sorry. This one is long, and hopefully thoughtful. It also involves blood. I mostly agree with you. I emphatically agree with one of your main points, which you have drilled in on for years. The main explanation for Trump's success is his authoritarianism. And the devotion of his authoritarian followers. It is not new. But, as you argue, Trump is particularly adept at giving those people what they need. @FuckNJoy is a great example. Because it is like Pavlov's dog. It is deeply wired. It is often not even close to rational or truthful. And it is an impulsive and reflexive response. And Trump's authoritarian followers are just fine with that. Who cares if Trump lies, and has a congenital problem with facts? And some of the veil on those impulses is coming off. "Normalize Indian hate" and "I was racist before racist was cool" and attacks on "LGBT activism" leave 0.0000000000000000000000000000000001 % doubt about who the target is, and what is driving this. Even JD Vance admits it. End hate? Fuck no. You disgust me. I listen to Rick Wilson all the time. He is, in effect, doing what Jon Stewart just mocked. I have to explain that. Stewart this week riffed on what is in fact a silly video of U.S. Rep Dan Goldman. Pretty Dan said what we really need is for a handful of Republicans (I assume he meant US House members, and he cited Liz Cheney) to voluntarily set themselves on fire. Stewart noted, correctly, "Good luck with that, Dan." We will no doubt see that soon in a gleeful and stupid @FuckNJoy Tik Tok. But Wilson is basically blowing himself up, as a lifelong conservative Republican. As is the whole Lincoln Project. That said, I'm being generous. All those White guys - they are mostly White and male - knew that in Trump's America they were all suspect, anyway. They are Romney guys, or Bush guys. So at least now they have a job. And we will listen to them. It is hardly self-sacrifice. To reverse the title of Wilson's book, "That which does not kill us makes us stronger." That may be a fact, or it may be a dubious belief. Now we all get a chance to learn. We did survive a Civil War. We did survive slavery. (More to the point, Blacks did.) Women who voted for Trump could not have voted for anyone until about a century ago. The list goes on. Beyond all that, I was wrong about one thing. Once Biden was elected, I would sometimes argue that MAGA was "a peasants' revolt that failed." It did in the sense that the peasants did not get Social Security, or Medicare, or the GI Bill, or Obamacare. The big win is they got tax cuts for Elon Musk. And Trump failed to fuck up their health care. Woo hoo! But now there is a different spin. Maybe the peasants won. They are 2 for 3, at least. (Have to say, I mean some White peasants in a weird coalition with Elon Musk that can not get 50 % of the vote, now or probably ever.) And part of my subtext is that I actually want the peasants to win. Lots of authoritarians were Democrats. Arguably, FDR had authoritarian tendencies, too. He told the rich to go fuck off. At least publicly. So I have a message back to Dan Goldman. He is awful pretty. I would hate to see him with bloody and broken teeth. And, frankly, he prefers having Wall Street and corporate lobbyists, and their money, deep up his ass. (Don't worry, he is not Gay.) For that matter, so does Hakeem Jeffries. And Nancy Pelosi. Again, you'll see it soon in a stupid @FuckNJoy Tik Tok. So I don't think the real problem is we need another Liz Cheney to argue about democracy, in hopes that we maybe get just enough votes in some suburb to win Pennsylvania by 50.1 %. I'm tired of that. Which is not to say Liz Cheney is wrong. It is to say Harris was wrong for thinking that was either necessary, or sufficient. We are now beyond that. It is a lawyerly, nice, and safe thing that guys like Dan Goldman like. While they suck up lobbyist bucks. That is Ruben Gallego, US Senator, in a gym where he teaches his son and other kids to box. So here is my advice for Dan Goldman, and how we address authoritarianism and oligarchs in America. I want Dan Goldman to go knock Elon Musk's teeth out. I am serious. Knock his fucking teeth out. And, to be clear, I just read some right winger saying Democrats are creating an atmosphere of violence. No, I'm not. Trump supporters are accusing me of that? Fuck them. Fucking hypocrites. No. Musk thinks like Hitler, he salutes like Hitler, and ultra-centrist Bill Gates just said Musk will actually kill millions of people if he succeeds in completely dismantling humanitarian efforts to stop the spread of HIV and other diseases. So knock Musk's fucking teeth out. And tell the American people that you are doing it because this cruel asshole is a bully who thinks he can buy America, buy the White House, ignore public safety, and fuck consumers - including Trump supporters. Oh, and piss all over democracy. Knock his fucking teeth out. Fight. Be proud of it. Tell America why you did it. If Musk is a man, which he wants to prove he is by being unbelievably cruel to his own daughter, then be a fucking man. Knock Goldman's teeth out. Sorry, Dan. You are awful pretty. But be a man. Take one for the team. Back in the 80's, when I was on Capitol Hill fighting the good fight a lot, it was easy to hear war stories about how people who worked on Capitol Hill literally got in fist fights in bars. In 2020 Elizabeth Warren impressed me by saying she would draw blood to stop predatory lenders from fucking over the little guy and the little gal. Is Warren a sadist? Or a hypocrite because she has maybe 0.000000000000000000000000000000000001 % of the wealth Musk does? Because people admire her ideas and her guts, and bought her stuff? Or because she invested wisely? No. I think Democrats and Independents are begging for someone who will fight like hell for them. Trump will at least pretend to do that on TV. He's good at it. A lot of people who are center or left of center think Bobby Kennedy is a hero for fighting Big Pharma and the food and drug industries. We're about to find out whether they are right. So here is an amazing reversal, that I think explains how I feel. In a new YouGov poll (p. 101), only 21 % of Democrats say they are "very satisfied" or "somewhat satisfied" with the way democracy is working with America. 31 % of Democrats are not too satisfied. 40 % of Democrats are "not satisfied at all". I'm one of them. How could Trump have even been a serious candidate after Jan. 6th? Meanwhile, 64 % of Republicans are satisfied with democracy. I won't fact check myself on this next statement. But I am pretty sure that is a direct reversal of how Democrats and Republicans saw it a year ago. And we know what changed. Very importantly, only 30 % of Independents are satisfied with democracy. 51 % are dissatisfied. 19 % don't know. That is great news. That tells me Independents do not see Trump as the solution to our democratic problems. The ones that voted for Trump just want lower prices, and fewer undocumented immigrants. They support LGBT activism, but don't want transgender people in bathrooms. If we want to actually build a majority coalition, we know the Independents are there. I think we also know how and why we have to move to the cultural center. More than anything, I think we need to fight like hell for the working class. Part of the formula here is that authoritarian followers tend to follow authoritarian leaders at particular times. Like when they are hurting. So if we don't want authoritarian leaders like Trump, which Democrats and Independents do not, we better focus like a laser on what is causing their pain, and what Democrats can do about it. I do think Dan Goldman knocking Elon Musk's teeth out would be a good start.

Agree with everything you said, Sis. But I will add one positive point. Which is that Trump is too stupid to fuck up America that badly. If he does go to the extreme, tries to become a dictator, and goes off into crazy shit from there, that would change my view. But, so far, as you say, he is just a weak and stupid man pretending he is not. Since this is above my pay grade, I will just lean on Mearsheimer. If anyone is interested, here is a brand new 30 minute interview of him. I think he is mostly right about most things. He, by the way, has been against the Ukraine war since it started. He would argue we unnecessarily antagonized Putin, going back to what I said about W. That said, Ukraine did not invade Russia. Putin invaded Ukraine. I am glad the US was with Ukraine when they asked for our help. I think in the long run it is one more reason Putin's corrupt Federation will collapse. in that interview I hyperlinked, Mearsheimer was asked whether the US is in decline. He basically said no. But the nuance matters. From other interviews, I know he feels that when the US really has to fight a hot war or cold war with Hitler or the USSR, we are likely to win. He thinks we have the strongest military in the world. Can Hegseth fuck that up? Probably not. So he says the biggest variable is our economic power. Right now, our economy is still the envy of the world. Can Trump fuck that up? I think even Mearsheimer thinks that is above his pay grade. My view is that Trump could only do that by bankrupting us. Like by somehow betting the US economy or the US Treasury on a Bitcoin bubble, to appease his special interest rich donors. That is what I think we most need to watch out for. As I mentioned above, Mearsheimer said Trump is flailing when it comes to diplomacy. Who would have guessed that? Since Mearsheimer is a realist, I am not sure how much he thinks USAID or "soft power" really matters. But he states clearly that we are at best confusing our allies, and perhaps alienating them, with awful diplomacy. Except for Putin, of course. 🥶

The really bitter pill is Ukraine. At least on a superficial level, it FEELS like we did not just lose a very important battle. We lost the whole fucking war. Emphasize the word FEEL. And the main reason I feel that way is Hegseth. I'm pretty sure, if not certain, that he said what he said about NATO with absolutely no diplomacy with our allies, and perhaps drunken impulses. One of my brothers is a recovered alcoholic. And, even though he has been sober for a decade, some of those reckless patterns stay even when the booze goes away. That said, I don't think we lost the war. And it is possible that Trump is a plus right now, in a weird way. He may keep Putin off balance, if only because Trump himself is always off balance and chaotic. By Nov. 2024 it was clear neither Ukraine nor Russia could win. So the basic idea, "Let's stop the bloodbath," makes sense. And the polls say that is mostly now where Ukraine is at. The whole mercenary thing about "give us your minerals" makes the US look like shit. John Mearsheimer, who I think is considered the #1 foreign policy realist, basically agrees with the idea that we need to focus on China, and end the unwinnable forever wars in Ukraine and Gaza. His point is that, so far, maybe Trump has good realist impulses. But it is horrific diplomacy, and there is no clue what the strategy is. If there is one. Even many of his strong supporters see "Gaza Riviera" as this bizarre distraction that mostly builds hatred toward America. I agree. That said, this is another reason why, so far, if I had to choose between W. and Trump I would take Trump in a heartbeat. W. arguably doomed Ukraine when he insisted they eventually have to be part of NATO. So Trump knows that. And I don't disagree with the idea that he will remove the thing that most irritates Putin. But it does leave Ukraine seemingly defenseless if Putin just rearms for Round Two. And the diplomacy is awful and weak. Do that concession in negotiations with allies, if you are going to do it at all. This is Trump's normal chaos, weakness, and inability to be the least bit diplomatic with our strongest allies.

Why won't you answer my question, you cruel coward? Why do you come here daily to attack Gay men and "LGBT activism"? Coward! What a weak, weak, weak man you are. Coward. Just like bone spurs Trump, who unilaterally conceded to Putin along with his weak, alcoholic ass kisser Hegseth. Obama had a 12 % disapproval rating in January 2009, according to Gallup. Trump started with 48 % disapproval. Do you ever wonder why? On DOGE, Musk is now up to 52 % disapproval. That right there tells me Trump will fire him, since he is all about the ratings. And his cruel and incompetent "racist before racist was cool" hater Musk is headed into the shit can. Unless Musk instead fires his First Lady Donald. Wonder what SCOTUS would say about that? Both the CFPB and even USAID have higher approval ratings and much lower disapproval ratings than Musk and DOGE. Musk has a great argument. He wants to give the American people what they deserve with their taxpayer dollars. Great, Elon. Listen to the American people, then. They prefer the CFPB and even USAID to Musk and DOGE. Stop your cruelty and incompetence and invasion of privacy. At least Musk's First Lady Donald got 49.7 % of the vote. But, no. Elon wants his special interest tax breaks and special interest gutting of public safety standards and special interest government contracts. And when it comes to a billionaire oligarch and #1 special interest donor, Trump will happily fuck his working class supporters over and over again. You posted this Tik Tok video of Trump's "wins" he has delivered on behalf of me, and the American people. It says he is going after "LGBT activism." Is opposing "LGBT activism" a win? What kind of activism? Support for same sex marriage? Are you trying to normalize Gay hate? Do you hate Gay men?

It's official. Elon Musk is now viewed unfavorably by a majority of Americans, in the new Feb 9-11 YouGov poll. Musk is efficient. It only took him less than a month to get America to turn against him. FIRE THE CRUEL AND INCOMPETENT JERK Elon Musk: Favorable 42 % Unfavorable 52 % FIRE THE CRUEL AND INCOMPETENT JERK Dept. of Governmental Efficiency: 42 % Favorable 38 % Unfavorable Consumer Financial Protection Bureau: 50 % Favorable 19 % Unfavorable AMERICANS WANT CONSUMER PROTECION MORE THAN THEY WANT MUSK OR DOGE. TRUMP IS STABBING HIS WHITE, HISPANIC, AND BLACK WORKING CLASS SUPPORTERS IN THE BACK. FIRE THE CRUEL AND INCOMPETENT JERK. United States Agency For International Development (US AID): 46 % Favorable 30 % Unfavorable AMERICANS VIEW USAID MORE FAVORABLY THAN MUSK AND DOGE. MUSK IS UNDERMINING US CREDIBILITY WITH OUR ALLIES AND DESTROYING LIFE-SAVING HUMANITARIAN EFFORTS. FIRE THE CRUEL AND INCOMPETENT JERK. DEI Programs: 45 % Favorable 36 % Unfavorable AMERICANS VIEW DEI PROGRAMS MORE FAVORABLY THAN MUSK AND DOGE FIRE THE CRUEL AND INCOMPETENT JERK.

Well you won't get much from our cruel coward, Sis. I suspect he whacks off his two inch White penis to these attacks. Who knows what gets a small minority of Gay men off about homophobia, so that they actually respect it. Our cruel coward is actually applauding the attacks on Gays. But we at least know @FuckNJoy is used to being a MAGA minority. And small, of course. Since we are on the subject of Stewart, I'll express the more complex and challenging ideas @FuckNJoy can't seem to find words for. I'll scold Jon Stewart. Not for scolding Rachel Maddow. But for clinging to ideas we will probably have to shit can, or at least deprioritize, if we want to win. Even though they are good and fair-minded ideas. I already posted this interview he did recently with Ruy Teixeira. It's gold. It is a big component of the debate we really need to have, and then act on. So kudos to Stewart for trying to expand an essential debate. And it is early days. But there are several times in this interview where Stewart wanted to be kind of wonky and woke, I thought. And Ruy has been warning for years, "Enough. Working class people don't want to hear that shit. You're losing them." Especially the White ones. He's right, as we all just learned the hard way. As a specific example of something Bill Clinton did that worked extremely well, both economically and politically, he found effective ways to expand affordable and sound home ownership to the White working class, and the Black working class, and the Hispanic working class, and the Asian American working class. Net worth soared, especially for the have nots. Until W. and his regulators let the subprime lenders roll from 2002 to 2006. Why do Republicans always seem to lean into their special interest rich donors and Wall Street? I will go to the grave believing that if Kamala Harris was the person who said, "I will knock Elon Musk's fucking teeth out to make sure child tax credits that have made poor Hispanic kids not poor get priority over Elon Musk's billionaire tax cuts," she would be President today. It was one of her most popular policy proposals. But having let it die in 2022, I think a lot of people believed Democrats simply will not fight for them. Stewart just had Hakeem Jeffries on his Weekly Show. Jeffries spoke eloquently about how Democrats need to relearn to fight for the working class. Then he went and had a meeting with rich Silicon Valley tech donors to talk about "mending fences". Those are not either/or. But Ruy is right. Democrats need to worry less about rich donors and more about mending fences with the working class.

So you want Trump and Musk to attack people who make money? That's funny. What about the Gay mafia? There's a bunch of rich Gay men who donated lots of money for years, so that we could have same sex marriage and equality. Do you hate these Gay men, cruel coward? Do you want the attack on "LGBT activism" you applaud to include attacking these rich Gay men, cruel coward? Because each and every one of them have financially supported a lot of the "LGBT activism" you are cheering Trump for attacking. Which "LGBT activism" wins do you want Trump to un-win, and brag about, cruel coward? Why are you a cruel coward, anyway? Why won't you even defend your attacks on Gay men, cruel coward?

GO AHEAD. ADMIT IT. Why are you celebrating Trump's attacks on "LGBT activism"? You posted this Tik Tok video of Trump's "wins" he has delivered on behalf of me, and the American people. It says he is going after "LGBT activism." Is opposing "LGBT activism" a win? What kind of activism? Support for same sex marriage? Are you trying to normalize Gay hate? Do you hate Gay men? Why do you think 48 % of Americans, including probably most Gay men, already disapprove of what Trump is doing? Did you celebrate Gay hate before it was cool? Since you are supporting homophobes and attacking "LGBT activism" I think Gay men here who have spent years fighting for Gay rights and other "LGBT activism" have a right to know why you support these attacks on us. A cruel coward. Sheesh! GO AHEAD, MR.TRUTH TELLER. ADMIT IT.

I love Stewart. He loves to roast Biden, Trump, Schumer, whoever. I know. Humor. Two sides. Facts. Looking at both sides. Laughing at both sides. Not in your skill set. But study hard and you might learn, @FuckNJoy. Stewart will have a field day roasting Trump's ass kissing and tax cuts for his special interest billionaires while they gut US safety and consumer protection standards. He'll gladly let them fuck his working class supporters. Ca-ching. "RIP CFPB."

Since that chart is using Gallup, did I mention Trump's DISAPPROVAL ratings has never changed from January 2017, Sis? 48 % disapproval. Very auspicious.

How Trump’s assault on bureaucracy could rock Virginia elections The off-year races are often a bellwether for the national mood a year before the midterms. I really hate this left wing bullshit. This is a scandal. Who paid Politico to write this nonsense? USAID? I mostly think Trump will do great in the midterms. People will be laughing their way to the polls. "Normalize Indian hate." LOL. ROTFL! 😁😁😁 I mean you gotta admit that is really funny. "Fire DEI Blacks who are worthless federal employees." I'm just busting a gut. 😍😍😍 I love the idea., I am so tired of that DEI "Oh I am Black" shit. Fire the fuckers. It's hysterical. "Don't say Gay." Some libtard in the voting line will say some stupid shit about how their confused Gay nephew bought a dress or painted his nails pink (is that the right pronoun? fuck that shit) or some weird shit. As if this nasty shit is even okay to talk about in public. It disgusts me. And someone normal with balls will say, "Ha ha you said Gay! Idiot!" and everyone in line will burst out laughing at the stupid libtard. It is so funny! I was against this weird Gay shit before it was cool. LGBT activism sucks. And I am glad Trump will defund it. These are all reasons why Trump and Trumpers will rock in the Virginia midterms. Then again, there are a lot of Blacks, and all kinds of Asian American ethnic minorities, and Gays who live in Virginia. They won't be upset about this at all, right? I mean, it is super funny. Right? Can't these fucking whining losers even take a joke? The Democrat Party Ideology + Government Power = A Woke and Radical LCSB So a very brief trip down memory lane, with only two stops. I read a bunch of articles about the culture wars in Northern Virginia when Biden was POTUS. The thing that stuck out to me is that in a perceived war between a "woke" educational agenda and math and reading skills, math and reading skills will always win. And what also jumped out at me was the diversity of the people who felt that way. Indian American Moms. Vietnamese American Dads. So I do think if Democrats ever want to win Senate seats in Iowa and Montana again, we have to rethink these things. But in Virginia, which is a lot more diverse, Trump and MAGA are mostly going to do the job for us. Conservative school board candidates lose ground as moderates push back on culture war issues Even in right-leaning counties, voters rejected some candidates who focused on fights over LGBTQ policies and book bans. I think that headline is generally accurate, at least in California and blue states. People in the center don't embrace a "woke" agenda, and they pushed back against it. But then they pushed back against "normalize hate" and ban Gay books. So we'll see how Virginia goes. But 2024 was not a referendum on normalizing cruelty and hate toward minorities. Or removing what has been a substantial underpinning for Blacks who go to college and strive to have a good middle class life helping people.

Why are you celebrating Trump's attacks on "LGBT activism"? Please take a MAGA minute to inform us. You posted this Tik Tok video of Trump's "wins" he has delivered on behalf of me, and the American people. It says he is going after "LGBT activism." Is opposing "LGBT activism" a win? What kind of activism? Support for same sex marriage? Are you trying to normalize Gay hate? Do you hate Gay men? Why do you think 48 % of Americans, including probably most Gay men, already disapprove of what Trump is doing? Did you celebrate Gay hate before it was cool?

More truth from Morning Consult:

When you post one of your "breaking" videos about MAGA news, please answer my question from another thread. Why are you attacking "LGBT activism"? What do you have against Gay men? I take it as a personal insult. I spent years on LGBTQ activism. Why are you applauding the homophobic attacks and attacking Gay activism? Please explain. I think we have the right to know, since you want to "inform" us.

Treasury officials: Musk ally ‘mistakenly’ had power to alter payments system The incident prompted an internal forensic investigation that remains ongoing. Okay. Two things. First, no calls for resignation. This is simply normalizing error and incompetence. That's an important part of making government more efficient. Same basic concept as being racist before racist was cool. And if any of you know Ro Khanna, please tell him to shut the fuck up about this. No tweets. He disgusts me. That said, it does actually make me a little bit nervous. I'd move to Canada, but I'd have to fly. I know this will just reinforce Hegseth's idea that all us Gays are weak. But is it too soon to use my "call Leonardo DiCaprio" card?

Could you do me a little favor, @FuckNJoy? I'm fine with brief videos of White guys that make me dumber. Could you just make them handsome White guys? And porn would be fine. Could you also make them well hung? Just asking for my beloved Sister In Cock. P.S. Please do not consider this "LGBT activism" in any way shape or form which I know you and MAGA oppose.

Why do you hate Gay men? Is that why you come here? To insult Gay men, and applaud efforts to discriminate against us? Trump is a cruel asshole, like Musk, who will happily hurt anyone who gets in his way. So let's not even pretend this has anything to do with what is right and wrong. Let's go with the only thing that matters to Trump: public opinion. He knows he can't win a real majority. But even a cruel asshole like Trump who plays divide and conquer knows he has to somehow get 48 % or 49 % of the vote, unless he can completely destroy democracy. So tariffs are wildly unpopular. In your part of MAGAland, maybe you really don't even know this. I assume you are willfully deceptive, and you intentionally posted a lying shitty video about a CBS poll, with the second half intentionally cut out. Then again, maybe you take stupid pills, and can't even admit to yourself that lots of Trump voters are smart. They want nothing to do with tariffs. Because they will raise prices. The CBS poll you didn't want us to see all of made that extremely clear. So putting tariffs on the table and alienating allies and then backing down at the last minute by saying they agreed to do things they had agreed to do already is not a victory. Not even for Trump voters who oppose it. I hope Trump and his incompetent loser Tom Homan don't roughly double fentanyl deaths again, like they did in Death And Failure 1.0. But if the idea is to play "Whack A Mole" like in Death And Failure 1.0, that is exactly how they delivered double the death last time. How does doing the same thing that failed the first time lead to victory? But, especially, why is combatting "LGBT activism" a victory? How does that even reflect how most Americans feel? It may reflect how a homophobic minority of Trump voters feel. If you are a self-hating Gay, you would not be the first. But even among Republicans, only about half still oppose same sex marriage. I guess I should be grateful. Because every time you post it reflects either ignorance, or cruelty, or hate. Or some combination of all three. At least we know what this is about, and where you stand. It explains why 48 % of Americans already disapprove of Hate 2.0. Why do you approve of Hate 2.0? And especially the hate of Gay men and our activism?
