B-Man Posted August 11 Posted August 11 Democrats Learn What Consequences Are, and They Aren't Happy About It One of the more underappreciated aspects of the 2024 election is just how confident most Democrats were that they would win it. It seems like an eternity ago, but there was a time when the American left was all but certain Kamala Harris would be the next president. Who can remember the months-long proclamation of "joy" being a central theme of her campaign? Or "Brat summer," suggesting Harris had made inroads with pop culture that simply couldn't be defeated. I still remember having to repeatedly debunk reports on election day of massive turnout in Philadelphia that had supposedly sealed the deal for the then-vice president. That attitude was nothing new, though. Between 2021 and 2024, no action was taken by the Democratic Party that factored in the possibility that Donald Trump might be president again one day. Assuming that he'd surely be done this time, they didn't even consider the possible alternative outcomes of their crusade. But then he won, and like a child who angrily wonders how the hot stove burned him, the Democrats are now very unhappy that Trump is governing in light of their actions. I'm going to go ahead and skip the sugar-coating that some try to do regarding this topic. Is Donald Trump seeking retribution for how the Democratic Party weaponized the American judicial system to try to throw him in prison for the rest of his life? Yes. Yes, he is. Here's the best summation of the situation I've seen. You see, in life, when you do things, those things often produce specific repercussions. We call those "consequences," and you don't get to call a timeout from them the moment they arrive. Democrats seem to be under the impression that they can set new standards only to revert when those new standards devour them. Take the recent battle over redistricting, which has seen over 50 left-wing Texas legislators flee their state to stop the passing of a new congressional map that would eliminate five Democrat-held seats. For decades, the Democratic Party has used state power to draw some of the most gerrymandered maps in the nation. Some examples include Illinois, Maryland, California, New York, Massachusetts, and New Mexico. But when Texas Republicans decided they wanted to stop playing the game with their hands tied behind their back, Democrats screamed bloody murder. The same is happening regarding Trump's quest to hold people accountable for the political weaponization of the government. When Joe Biden used a special counsel to try to jail the current president on extremely specious legal grounds, that was spun as "no one is above the law." When Trump responds to that breaking of norms by investigating those who perpetrated it, suddenly it's a "threat to democracy." When Department of Justice officials and FBI agents used their power to hatch a conspiracy to try to take down the Democrats' primary political rival, they were just "doing their job." When Trump fires those leaders and agents as a result of their own decisions to politicize their offices, that's claimed to be "politicization." But really, what did Democrats think was going to happen? At what point in Trump's political career has he shown a penchant for letting things go? https://redstate.com/bonchie/2025/08/10/democrats-learn-what-consequences-are-and-they-arent-happy-n2192651 1

Orlando Buffalo Posted August 21 Posted August 21 I believe this is was truly posted in the Smithsonian because of the number of places I have seen it but it is insane to think that non white people think this list is anything but insulting to them.
Orlando Buffalo Posted August 21 Posted August 21 Imagine believing you can promote your political belief in the place you work and get upset when someone fired you. This is a person who is stupid but never was told they were stupid.

Orlando Buffalo Posted August 23 Posted August 23 The lack of self awareness is astounding. The most i do in regards to any of these "controversies" is not buy the product, but I am "outraged". Meanwhile liberals are shutting down roads and protesting in defense of murderers but that is normal. 1 1 1

This is the same failed tact by the roundies of PPP, when a nonsense woke or DEI thing is pointed out and laughed at, You will always get a post saying that "I am amused by how upset you trumpies are" They really don't have much else than self-delusion at this point. . 1
