I believe every single person that speaks English has used that word before.
That may be true of every Republican, so it's an easy mistake for a Republican to assume everyone else is as totally fucking awful as Republicans are.

every mindset and idea is a cult and ideas only make sense if people collectively agree to believe in them.
Look at that. A "both sides" argument to the effect that it's meaningless to single out harmful cults (which Scientology is a perfect example of).

Taken from wikipedia

"In political science, the term banana republic describes a politically and economically unstable country with an economy dependent upon the export of natural resources.

Typically, a banana republic has a society of extremely stratified social classes, usually a large impoverished working class and a ruling class plutocracy, composed of the business, political, and military elites. The ruling class controls the primary sector of the economy by way of exploitation of labour."

Republicans don't know what a banana republic even is. I mean yeah the USA might technically count as one but it's because they are making us politically unstable.
Republicans want to make the US into a banana republic politically, with an omni-corrupt GOP President for life. If the GOP gets its way, the cratering of the US economy will follow in due course.

If true, this is a large pile of wingnut money that will be stolen by Trump or used to pay off his judgements instead of being used to try to elect Republicans.

Please proceed.

Since you guys are so good at stalking, I'm sure it won't be too hard for you to find some anti-Trump posts I've made in the past. But I guess you only stalk people when it works in your favor.
You should sign up to be a Trump lawyer. This is exactly the kind of bullshit they try in court.

Let me count the differences:

1) I am not a lifelong, career criminal.

2) I do not live my life in an endless media circus.

3) I'm not in the habit of paying hush money to have scandals covered up, because there are no scandals.

etc. etc. etc. etc.

But this messaging will work on Trump's brain-dead supporters, since they all live vicariously through this criminal scum.

Does anyone believe that both candidates, Biden and Trump, are good choices for being president of the country?

I ask because -as far as I can see- no one believes in both candidates and it is a strange situation. We are so polarized that we cannot respect opposing points of view.
It's as if you're asking does anyone believe that 2+2 = 4 and 2+2 = 5 are both valid options?

It's a hell of an example of the folly of the both sides crap.

I say you must work with other people to bring this about and I say your chances of working with others are better if you are cool with them believing whatever and just work on reasons for them to vote for Biden.
This is farcical. It is inconceivable for normal political arguments to reach redcaps, so they and their appalling views should just be dismissed with the contempt they both so richly deserve. Redcaps need to be outnumbered in elections, so the strategy has to be to turn out the D base and do what can be done to attract swing voters.

Not that I expect it to happen of course and there's also the technical aspects, but it wouldn't shock me that much. Biden is one of those who wants a "strong Republican party" like the other delusional old fossils of the establishment who still thinks it's 1992 or some shit. People like Pelosi who fist bumped Mitch McConnell even after the constant rat fucking he has caused (and said the strong Republican party line) and Feinstein who hugged Lindsay Graham.
IIRC, Biden has been consistently taking aim at MAGA Republicans as being a problem, so him pardoning the cult leader of MAGA (even if it were possible) would be inconsistent with that.

Of course, there's no such thing as non-MAGA Republicans and the party as a whole needs to be permanently ended before they kill us all. These are things establishment Democrats have difficulty understanding.

Definitely, and I agree also with David1988s point that Trump will absolutely suffer no felony stigma as a result of his conviction. Thats not really my issue.

I dont at all mind people feeling relief, or even joy at the result of the trial. But a strong sentiment coming from the Democratic side for this election cycle is that you cant seriously vote for Trump, because he is a criminal. And a lot of the emphasis on Trump being titled convicted felon is related directly to that desire to score a political victory, for lack of a better term. If it was just about justice being served, Im all for it. He deserves worse. But it isnt just about that. And its the other stuff that its about that rubs me the wrong way, a little bit.

Let's not be too scrupulous here. Trump is a convicted felon, Trump being a felon can and absolutely should be used for maximum political advantage in an election where Trump's chance of winning is far too high.

"We should only kill half the Palestinians" sure became valid pretty quickly. Must be a centrist.
It's the goddamn trolly problem, where the choice is a genocide of some Palestinians (D) or a genocide of all Palestinians (R).

Nobody is getting better foreign policy out of the US than this goddamn mess until after the GOP is dead and buried.

And while we're at it, AIPAC needs to be buried too, which isn't a small project.

Exactly. Trying to not pick one of the two is very weird thing to do. It isn't an option.

Should be very easy to pick one of the two if you legit care about Palestinian lives. I pick #2 for example. Took less than a second.

Weird to not be able to pick one of these two options:

1. Guy who is full genocide and wants them gone ASAP
2. Guy who will at least save 100,000 of them

I find it very easy as someone who cares about Palestinian lives I pick #2
It's like, what part of a Likud/GOP final solution in Palestine is not clear?

FFS. Trump's "policy proposals" are just the most recent set of lies Trump spewed out in front of reporters, and should be takes exactly as seriously as a smear of dog shit on a sidewalk.

There is only one issue in the election of 2024, and that is the contest between a normal politician (Biden) running as a candidate for a normal political party (Democrats) and a piece of shit (Trump) running as the candidate of the Freak Party (Republicans).

So why spend the effort to bash Biden everyday?
Bashing Biden every day online regarding his shitty I/P policy will, in fact, have no effect on the shittiness of Biden's I/P policy.

What it might do, and certainly seems intended to do by nearly all practitioners of it, is help Trump win.

Now there are two possibilities:

1) The Biden basher is too stupid to realize their advocacy is self-defeating, since Trump would be infinitely worse on I/P.

2) The whole point of the Biden bashing is to help Trump win, and the concern about I/P is ratfucking to agitate people in category #1.

I'm really not seeing a third option here.

I have never ever ever ever ever heard of SCOTUS taking a state crime case that didn't involve a claim of violated constitutional Rights. If this goes to SCOTUS with a complaint about jurisdiction they won't even read it.
And LOL at the idea that Trump's constitutional rights were violated.

Any SCOTUS opinion to that effect from the corrupt six would expose them to withering criticism of their mental faculties in the dissent.

SCOTUS could have made Trump dictator for life after the 2020 election and passed on several chances to do that.

IMO they won't dare intervene in this case, because that would start a long-overdue conversation about why we let such an obviously corrupt institution keep any of its power.

So here's what I think, I think the Republicans will do the same. Sometimes when you mean well (democrats) others can exploit the system they make.
Oh noes. Republicans will retaliate for prosecution of real R crimes (e.g., Watergate) with prosecution of fake D crimes (e.g., Clinton impeachment).

Whatever will we fucking do? I guess it's time to let all Republican crimes slide since that's just how they do.
