Current Events > Republicans at CPAC promise establishment of new republic and divine retribution

(+) Yeah! (+)

After we burn that swamp to the ground, we will establish the new American republic on its ashes, and our first order of business will be righteous retribution for those who betrayed America, he said.

I hope undecided voters are taking these people seriously. A whole lot of people are going to be fucked if these lunatics regain power.

Are they quoting the X-Men Apocalypse trailer? This is insane...

Welcome to Gilead.

After we burn that swamp to the ground

Swamps are notoriously filled with water.

Sucks I have to choose between the crazy racists with a knife pointed toward me and the racists that smile right at me with a knife behind their backs

Why am I gonna vote for the dude literally supporting a genocide? This isn't centrist. Both options are just shit and neither align with my values

Well, yeah I do care about Palestinians. I'm pissed everytime I see the meaningless slaughter that is happening. I think we should all want better than a President that views brown people as subhuman

So you were upset in 1990, 2005, 2019, and 2021?

sorry they don't recall that far back to remember what FOX news told them what they're angry about

Welcome to why the gop is a bona fide terrorist organization. Political aspirations should be to help people and run the country, neither of which can be accomplished when you're trying to "exact revenge" on "those who've wronged you". Our founding fathers would be ashamed to no end that the gop is trying to weaponize politics.

It doesn't sound like we have much of a choice if it comes down to "guy who will support genocide and currently treats immigrants like shit in a much quieter way" and "other guy who will support genocide and also treat immigrants like shit but in a more brazen way".

Both these guys are pieces of shit and my vote isn't bought because one says "well if you don't vote for me you'll get that other guy". Roe vs Wade came to an end under Biden's presidency and the most powerful man in the world isn't doing everything he can to save that right.

You can't threaten me to vote for you when you're doing the most heinous war crimes imaginable and aren't working your ass off to secure fundamental rights

You should probably just not vote or participate in political discussions then.

The 3 branches of US government are usually taught in the 5th grade.

Did you not pay attention or not finish the 5th grade or something?

Biden is doing the most heinous war crimes imaginable?

It's pretty fucking stupid to just give up because "I don't want to vote for the lesser evil so maybe I'll get lucky and the Republicans will win and put us all out of our misery". If you don't have the will to live anymore, that's no reason to take everyone else with you.

This. Much like 2016, I dont think some people are grasping the dire nature of this situation. Every candidate says democracy is at stake every election, but in this case it is true. If Trump gets back into power, Americas system of government (and the people it is supposed to serve) are in grave danger.

Cultists are one thing, but I cant believe how many self-proclaimed independents saw this man try to overturn a free and fair election and the chaos and corruption of his four years in office and still dont seem to grasp what is at stake here.

Yep. These monsters don't want democracy they want dominance through terroristic violence from a facist regime.

Centrism means going into a topic about the evils of the Republican Party and utterly derailing it by yammering on about Biden.

Are you for real right now? Do you understand politics in the slightest? The filthy gop has a supermajority in the SCOTUS, put forth by that orange imbecile turmpy boy, and voted in in no small part thanks to Mitch the Bitch.

Moreover, they are lifetime appointments, and to my knowledge, none of which have retired or expired under Biden.

Moremoreover, the filthy gop has control of the House. If you think Biden and the dems haven't been working to preserve reproductive rights for women, then I don't know what to tell you.

Lastly, if you don't understand how the system works, then it would be prudent for you to keep your mouth shut. I'd ask you how that foot tastes, but I think your words speak for themselves.

Well you aren't going to get it this time, so shut the fuck up and vote for damage mitigation. People with empathy and good values don't sit back and let a million die because keeping them alive would be unfair to the 5000 already dead.

Alright, guys, he/she just told you in no uncertain terms they're trolling.

Letting Israel commit a genocide, lying to our faces about Israel having intel that justifies their genocidal campaign, giving them the money and ammunition to continue to kill tens of thousands of innocent people.

I'm not voting for some old white man that clearly doesn't care about people that look anything like me and sees no issues with a literal extermination of a group of people

Guys if yall want to vote for Genocide Joe go ahead but don't act like there's a "right" choice here. In no uncertain terms, both of these candidates are monsters that can't even pretend to value human life. If you want to trick yourself into thinking that, go ahead but after Oct 7th Biden showed his true colors and what he really represents

To be completely fair, I kind of wish the Democrats had the balls to just do what's why regardless of what the rules say. They aren't good guys, but they're far better than the alternative. A party that really cared would be doing whatever it takes to protect people at any cost.

lol, Saxon over here thinking we give a shit what they think anymore.

Every LGBTQ person should suffer until they get murdered or blow their brains out because Biden won't break decades of shitty bipartisan foreign policy? Our federal government has supported evil foreign regimes and ethnic cleansing since before our grandparents, but now it's too much for you to bear?

There certainly is for communities that are being legislated against here in America and will face the same or worse under the rule of one party who also hope to instill policies to strip rights from everybody that isn't them.

Exactly. People really jumped to conclusions about what I'm saying. I know who brought down RvW. I know why it was brought down. I also know every Dem President of the last 50 years knew what Republicans were doing and failed to codify Roe vs Wade. Decades of Republicans chipping away and fighting to bring down RvW while Dem presidents just let it happen. It's so tiring to see them act powerless. It's tiring to see the most powerful man in the world act like he can't be doing more. That's all I'm asking for. DO MORE

There is a right choice. The lesser of two evils and the one least likely to cause long term or irrepairable damage. Not the response you wanted to hear but it's the truth.

He's gonna tell us we're being selfish and not caring about Gazans like he does.

When the Gazans get exterminated even harder AND America is a Christofascist hellhole, at least he can whisper "I stuck to my conscience" as they escort him away.

I feel like the populace of America is just numb and hopeless to everything at this point I've yet to hear anyone talk positively about the future
