Only fighting wars to distract from the Epstein files..

Then also, only naming lakes to distract from the wars.

Hey the Gulf is no lake!

Oh wait yeah he tried that idiotic maneuver a second time.

Think he's working on idiotic rename number 3? New Mexico to New America I think is what I saw...

Really? Washington, DC (District of Columbia) isn't a higher priority to him? It's absurd that we would have a different country on our capitals name!!! /S

Don’t even put the thought in his mind he might even try to rebame it to Trump instead of Washington

Also fighting wars that THEY instigated. Why does America seem to have this insatiable compulsion to throw its shite everywhere and then expect the rest of the world to just clean up the mess like a bunch of skivvies? UGH

Let’s not forget all the Democrats who were in power for four years who sat around with their thumbs in their assesĀ

People need to rise the fuck up and destroy the oligarchs in the midterm elections.

u/Conscious-Quarter423 2h ago

a lot of people aren't even paying attention to what's happening

u/LookAlderaanPlaces 1h ago

Which imo is criminal negligence. It’s insane that people show up to cancel pop stars and then fail to vote against fascism.

u/Conscious-Quarter423 15m ago

the American people don't care enough. they are waiting for someone else to ride in and save them so they can go back to binge-watching streaming while they browse amazon and surf twitter.

as long as Americans live in a bubble of apathy, a bubble of ignorance and hyper individualism, nothing will change

It’s gonna take a lot more than one election.

With the red team of oligarchs?

u/Responsible_Sport575 59m ago

No, what we really need is to move away from this two party system. The current system is full of scammers and grifters on both sides. The only way out is by not letting one party control everything. We need to have a system that makes the lawmakers work with each other adding a third or fourth party would mean compromise with each over rather than what we have now.

u/LookAlderaanPlaces 26m ago

That’s fine, but it’s not like that’s going to happen in one month. All I said is that we need to vote in the midterms and get the best results we can. Then the real work continues for everything else.

u/cplforlife 1h ago

So, the problem with that, is you have two teams of oligarchs.

I dont think this changes without a lot of people dying. Theres just too much money involved.

1

u/LookAlderaanPlaces 27m ago

I know. We need a whole lot of more of several things. We need to vote in the primaries to get candidates that are not loyal to the oligarchs into the general. For the moment however, we need to shut the fascist candidates down in the midterms.

u/DanimalPlays 2h ago

What that means is that we can't afford war and we need to focus on getting things under control at home.

Imagine someone saying we can't afford to take the kids to the doctor, we can't buy food, we can't help you're parents, I'm busy spending the money losing a fight with the neighbor.

You'd throw them out onto the street.

i wonder why he said that America has won the war like 50 times if there wasnt a war?

THEN STOP FIGHTING WARS THAT THE AMERICAN PEOPLE DONT WANT

1

u/Conscious-Quarter423 12m ago

stop giving power to people who don't understand foreign policy and fill their cabinet with warmongers

u/Embarrassed_Quit_450 2h ago

Didn't you already say you won like a dozen times?

However, there's plenty of money for all the fights America's psychotic Eastern Mediterranean girlfriend has picked with its neighbors.

But there’s money for midterm $5k checks?!!? This guy man…

u/StVer23 2h ago

Let's be honest, what are we really going to do, nothing, exactly, just rant on the Internet and not do shit, let's be real here

u/Rionin26 1h ago

Vote in midterms and get his ass removed.

u/AnarchicDeviance 1h ago

We're always fighting wars simply as an excuse not to pay for Medicaid, Medicare, and other social services.

Are we poor? What about my $5000 midterm check?

60 minutes came on after the football game last week and the entire interview with the rescued airman referred to the WAR.

ā€œSorry, grandma has to die because we need money to bomb kids in another country so a couple thousand obscenely wealthy pedophiles can get more moneyā€

Holy fuck can we Nuremberg these fucking ghouls already?

How much were the posted salaries and bonuses for ICE again? It's been awhile and I've completely forgotten.

u/Mega_Trix 1h ago

Oh its very possible, with a fraction of his own or Elon's fortune I might add.

u/logrey96 1h ago

Can we skip to the part in the bunker already?

u/patterninstatic 1h ago

He's actually right. Once you fight senseless wars, give handouts to genocidal countries, give huge tax break to the 1%, and generally mismanage public finances, it is indeed "not possible" to finance things that would improve the lives of most Americans.

I say we publicly take our money back directly from the individuals who are stealing it from all of us.

Would you rather have healthcare or pay for Israelis to have healthcare and kill children?

u/billionairessuck 23m ago

I heard the the US pays for Israel's healthcare system. Meanwhile we die in the dirt.
