      Is that bcz of empathy? Normal people have it, and the rich don’t, and their idiot followers aren’t smart enough to realize they’re being manipulate?

        It’s because modern conservatives are less concerned about facts.

        Republicans claim climate change is a hoax; the reality is that climate change is already causing measurable damage around the planet.

        Republicans claim Haitian immigrants are eating dogs and cats; the reality is they aren’t.

        Republicans claim Democrats want to abort newborn infants. The reality is this is illegal everywhere.

        Republicans claim illegal immigration and crime area crisis. Reality is the numbers are actually trending down.

        Republicans claim supply side economics worse. Reality is that supply side economics does not work and Democratic presidents perform better on every economic measure.

        Republicans have recently claimed that schools are doing trans surgeries on kids without their parents’ permission and immigrants have a direct phone line to Kamala Harris in exchange for illegal votes. Reality is that those are too stupid to garner a serious response.

        So yeah, reality happens to have a liberal bias when conservatives are trying to out-stupid each other.

        The rich might have empathy abd a poor might not. Those without empathy and are rich/powerful becomes the worst though as they don’t feel fear or anxiety and has no feelings for fellow humans.

      Just wait - starting 39 days from now we get to speculate if the election results will actually be obeyed or not.

      And that fucker will never stop being in the news - his family has a death grip over the GOP.

        I think most of the GOP are over him. He’s not been useful for any of them for a hot minute now. I think if he loses, they drop him as fast as they can.

          Trump appointed a family member as the GOP chair and it looks like Baron is being setup to get another nepotism appointment. That fucking rot goes deep.

          I don’t disagree that most GOP politicians want him gone - I don’t think he’s ever been popular with senators or house reps… but everyone still in an elected position is either a true believer or someone who knows to keep their mouth shut - the fucking voting base is insane. As a parallel I’d point to our unfortunate BC provincial politics where a party attached the conservative label to themselves and jumped from 0 to like 40% of the expected vote share overnight.

          Conservatives are fucking crazy and do not give a shit who their actual reps are - they’re entirely identity based voters.

            He’s 4 years older now and if he loses, add another 4 years into a now two time loser. His value is gone with a loss imo.

            He’s going to tank everyone down ballot. If everyone gets out and votes, the hope is this will be a landslide victory and the GOP will be punished for following trump in every election up for grabs this year. Including local elections

      Im not as hopeful as you are.

      For one, the media will run his bullshit “stolen election” garbage for as long as they can.

      For two, unless Harris has a blowout victory, I fully expect trumps cronies around the nation to skew and stall results to his favor creating a legal challenelge of epic proportions not seen since Hangin’ Chad.

    So, what I’m getting from this is that Trump’s campaign doesn’t have anyone that knows a goddamn thing about SEO. And that apparently it’s election interference for Google to prioritize real news sources over right wing propaganda outlets.

    But this is also another good reminder that Trump views government authority as something that he should be able to wield without restraint. If he gets back into office he’ll use the justice department, the IRS, and any other federal agency he’s aware of as weapons to punish those who displease him. Doesn’t matter what the law says about any of this, his bullying will cost people one way or another, and all while he can’t be touched because as president he will be above the law.

    He needs to be charged for frivolous accusations against everyone he’s ever done this to- until he’s a penniless sack of side-of-the-road trash.

    I bet you $10 he didn’t even read the study. This motherfucker literally googled himself and was mad at the results. And when he googled why it was happening he found the study and immediately went to post about it. And honestly, this is the kinda shit I imagine when people say “do your research.” Two google searches while reading headlines and poof now they’re an expert.
