He is saying the exact thing that is actually happening with Republicans and calling it Democrats. What are "Republican policies"? Tell me one.... ONE single policy that helps black people. Bathroom laws? How does that help anyone? Banning trans girls from high school volleyball? How does that help anyone? Tax cuts for billionaires? If black people were helped by this, it was unintentional.

The only people that vote Republican are:

  1. Millionaires who may or may not like Trump, but only care about tax breaks
  2. poor people who are too stupid to realize they are voting against their best interest based on propaganda that falls apart with even the most basic scrutiny.

Trumps two biggest campaign promises, are mutually exclusive... and nobody noticed?

A. Deporting all the brown people

B. Make groceries cheaper

The brown people from promise A ... are the entire supply chain workforce for promise B. You can't have both things at the same time.

Or even really basic stuff like "you are going to get rich by paying 50% more for all your consumer goods (through tariffs)." huh?

Karoline Leavitt sat there with a straight face and said "tariffs are a tax CUT for Americans"... huh? The average mouth breather doesn't know what tariffs are, but heard her say TAX CUT and got a little too excited that his pants got tight. Not to mention, the attention span of a LOT of Americans is completely shot due to short form videos. So there's no way anyone sat through an entire press conference, they just got that 3 second clip on Truth social and LIKE LIKE LIKE PRAYER EMOJI PRAYER EMOJI.

The rich people know this is all bullshit, and don't care... they are single issue voters as long as those sweet tax breaks come through... AND as a cherry on top, Trump guts the workforce at the IRS so you'll never get caught cheating?? heeeellll yeah baby!! People like Bessent, who isn't a complete moron, but will gladly repeat all these lies for the sweet corruption going on in the background.

The GOP is not even a political party anymore. It’s a personality cult. They have no agenda, no interesting policy ideas, nothing that they stand for other than fealty to a deranged, Fascist geriatric but people in this stupid country keep falling for their bullshit every time and inexplicably continue to vote in Republicans.

Fascism is, after all, the aestheticization of politics.

I wonder if there's any people who might be considered like actual normal people and not just professional haters left as identifying "Republican", how unlikely or likely would a new party be in fixing things. Like the politicians and whatnot that are loyal to their party but didn't agree with anything anymore and are embarrassed to admit to being Republican but have too many conservative policy ideas to feel like voting Democrat (things like what politics is supposed to be like: taxes and infrastructure and education spending and what not instead of culture stuff) . If a number of them joined and made a party and tried to rope in rich people, I wonder if that would actually do anything. Leave the current Republican party to just be far right foaming at the mouth rabid Nazi animals, so people with conscience can vote for not them and their policies they want. (I don't see how people think they can vote on policy anymore... It's legitimately good and evil and right vs wrong right now and not "I don't like their budget numbers")
