As a US voter, I can’t help but feel a sense of embarrassment when looking at the current political landscape. The recent poll showing that 63% of Americans view both Biden and Trump as embarrassing is not surprising to me. These two candidates, who are supposed to represent the best of the two major political parties, have left many feeling disillusioned and disheartened.
The fact that both candidates are seen in a negative light by a majority of the population speaks volumes about the state of our political system. It’s disheartening to think that the two individuals vying for the highest office in the country are viewed with such contempt by such a large portion of the electorate.… Continue reading
Watching Trump fumble repeatedly in his terrifying speech at the Florida rally was not only concerning but also eye-opening. In front of a crowd of about 700 people (although he claimed it was 45,000), Trump rambled on about instituting the death penalty for drug dealers and the state of airports in our nation. The disjointed nature of his speech, jumping from one topic to another, raised serious questions about his mental state and ability to lead our country.
One cannot help but wonder what the penalty would be for being responsible for a million deaths, instead of the 500 deaths he mentioned.… Continue reading
So, there’s a video circulating that shows Trump cheering on Project 2025, but surprise, surprise, he claims he didn’t know about it. Classic Trump move, right? It’s like a broken record at this point – deny, deflect, deceive. And yet, despite the video evidence, his loyal followers will still stick by his side, blind to his lies and manipulation. It’s a disturbing sight to witness, but sadly, not surprising.
I find it baffling that people are still fixated on whether Trump actually knew about the project or not. In the grand scheme of things, does it even matter? Trump is merely a puppet being used to push through whatever agenda those behind the scenes want.… Continue reading
It’s infuriating to see how Democrats are not truly acting as if a Trump victory over Biden is an existential threat to democracy. The elite, the rich, they will be fine either way. They have the resources and agency to navigate any political landscape, regardless of who is in power. They were unfazed by Hillary’s polling in swing states in 2016, and they didn’t raise much fuss when the Senate blocked Obama from nominating a Supreme Court justice.
The lack of urgency and strategic planning within the Democratic party is baffling. The insistence on blindly supporting Biden, despite his obvious shortcomings and lack of appeal to moderates and independents, is a risky gamble.… Continue reading
As I reflect on the current political landscape, one thing becomes abundantly clear – the upcoming election between Joe Biden and Donald Trump is a truly disheartening display of choosing between the lesser of two evils. The issue at hand is not just about questioning Biden’s age and mental acuity, but also about the glaring hypocrisy when it comes to scrutinizing Trump’s own cognitive abilities.
Despite being only three years apart in age, the stark contrast between Trump and Biden’s mental acumen is undeniable. While Trump routinely goes off on nonsensical tangents, mixes up important details, and shamelessly lies, Biden is also facing scrutiny for his own slip-ups and moments of confusion.… Continue reading
It’s baffling to think about how someone within the LGBTQ+ community could support a political party that, at its core, does not advocate for their existence or rights. Gay republicans who align themselves with the MAGA movement are essentially prioritizing their disdain for certain policies or economic issues over their own identities and communities. The repercussions of such a choice can be devastating, with many individuals finding themselves ostracized and alienated by those who should be their allies.
The cognitive dissonance displayed by Trump-loving gays is truly mind-boggling. By throwing their support behind a candidate and party that actively work against their rights and freedoms, they are essentially digging their own graves.… Continue reading
As I sit here reflecting on the state of our country and the upcoming election, one thing becomes abundantly clear to me: stopping Trump and Project 2025 is paramount. The outcome of the Biden-Harris election seems insignificant when compared to the looming threat of an alt-right fascist Christian takeover of America that Project 2025 represents.
It is disheartening to witness the current political landscape where fear of the other party seems to be the driving force behind our votes. The idea that we are forced to vote for one party just to prevent the other from gaining power is a chilling indication of the state of our democracy.… Continue reading
As the drama surrounding Joe Biden’s decision to decline stepping aside continues to unravel, I can’t help but feel a mixture of frustration and disappointment. The notion of having a maximum age limit for presidential candidates has been a hot topic of discussion lately, and Biden’s refusal to step down despite mounting pressure raises legitimate concerns about his ability to lead effectively.
Biden himself has acknowledged that he views himself as a transition candidate, a bridge to a new generation of leadership. However, his decision to cling onto power despite dwindling public support and questionable debate performances raises serious doubts about his capacity to fulfill this role effectively.… Continue reading
Trump’s far-right army is not just a fringe movement; it poses a real and immediate threat to our nation’s stability. The recent events, especially the January 6th insurrection, have shown the world the dangers of unchecked extremism, fueled by the rhetoric of Trump and his allies. The normalization of extremist views and the promotion of violence as a political tool should be alarming to us all.
The comparisons between the current situation and the rise of Nazism in the 1920s and 30s are chilling. The tactics of assaulting political rivals and intimidating opponents into silence are eerily similar. We cannot afford to underestimate the passionate intensity of these extremists who have shown their willingness to resort to violence to achieve their goals.… Continue reading
As the dust settles from the recent debate, one thing has become abundantly clear – the stakes have never been higher in this election. With the country facing unprecedented challenges and the future of democracy hanging in the balance, the choice between Biden and Trump has become a matter of existential importance. The recent endorsement by AOC of Biden represents an important step towards consolidating Democratic support and rallying behind a candidate who, despite his flaws, offers a credible path forward for the nation.
In the midst of speculation and doubt surrounding Biden’s candidacy, AOC’s endorsement serves as a strategic move towards unity and collaboration within the party.… Continue reading
