Yeah, trump has literally shit himself on camera before, we know what it looks like and it’s not this.

This isn’t even a meme, it’s a picture with a title a trump supporter would think is normal…
I heard the poles and housing are made of super copper a new material that can imitate steal or plastic and worth 10x normal copper in scrap
If you are more resilient than me, how?
It is what it is…
Doesn’t mean it’s right, doesn’t mean you shouldn’t try to fix shit.
Just an acknowledgement that right now, in this moment, it just is what it is and you have to deal.
It honestly sounds stupid and dismissive, but if you sit and think about it, it’s a valid coping strategy and reminder that sometimes people are just in a shitty situation and they have to deal with it.
Right now that person is you, and it sucks.
Later the situation might not be fucked, or you might not be the one in that situation at least.
But right now it sucks, and you have to deal. People have gotten thru a lot worse and you’ll get thru this too, there’s not really another option besides crashing out, and that doesn’t solve much
It is what it is.
It doesn’t matter this congress…
Next congress which starts in January it might…
I’m saying if Fetterman alone is what gets a D majority. That is the only time he would switch to R.
And if he does, he would immediately regret it because Republicans would treat him differently as a Republican.
I understand I basically just repeated myself, but does it make sense now?
Many such Republicans skipped the convention, including Representative Tom Barrett of Michigan, Senator Dan Sullivan of Alaska and Senator Susan Collins of Maine, all facing strong Democratic challengers this fall.
In every debate, in every ad, they need to say:
“My Republican opponent doesn’t even like trump, but would enable him simply by contributing to majority”.
Don’t let them just pretend they’re different than trump, the most important thing is majorities and everyone running with an R by their name will caucus with Republicans and do whatever trump wants.
Don’t let them have it both ways
Literally none of them end up any different…
It’s a game of chicken, people buy in while the price is going up, knowing eventually it will be worthless but betting they’ll exit before anyone else.
And every single time the vast majority are wrong and lose money.
Everyone that buys it is both an idiot and knows what they’re doing, but everyone who launches a coin is still a jackass ripping people off.
Always happy to help someone who can’t use a search engine.
Once
And I gave you the actual audio of what he said…
If you legitimately don’t understand why that’s what you were asking for, I understand why you have difficulty googling things in 2026
Took 3 minutes …
It was an amazing phone call. 40 Wall Street actually was the second tallest building in downtown Manhattan and it was, actually before the World Trade Center, the tallest. And when they built the World Trade Center it became known as the second tallest and now it’s the tallest," the future president told WWOR at the time.
Even has the audio, he was calling in to Howard Stern
The second he’s one of them he becomes the left most Republican instead of the furthest right dem…
That’s a huge difference and if it wasn’t for his brain damage he could see that coming.
The danger is if the Senate is 51/49 blue, Fetterman switching would make it 50/50 and defacto R with Vance as tiebreaker. And if Fettermen isn’t 100% with them on votes, he’ll get accused of being a double secret antifa.
He won’t handle that rationally either, and Id fully expect him to resign
It 100% is dangerous.
But…
By next year there will be cities in which drones are dispatched to disperse any crowd of 5 or more people, anywhere the AI sees them.
Acceptable levels of danger depends on the situation.
Statistically speaking you’re more likely to be shot if you own a gun. I’d still recommend Americans have at least a gun these days.
That’s not the same as saying go drive around busting caps like it’s 2016 again. Just like pointing out the cheapness of those lasers and what they do to surveillance and drones isn’t telling people to buy one today and a month later when it shows up use it like a searchlight on premier night.
Things happen fast these days, if people are legitimately concerned about widespread use of government surveillance drones…
$50 can buy some peace of mind.
Completely unrelated:
You can buy lasers on Temu that you should absolutely not point at a camera because it will burn it out almost immediately.
Some are especially dangerous, because they include “spread caps” that make it a bunch of dots or a design meaning you could easily accidentally put out the cameras in Flock towers or drones with a passing flash.
Because even if it’s AI, it needs to see where it’s flying.
Watergate made Richard Nixon resign…
From that (there’s literally a memo about it in Nixons library) came Faux News.
Bill Clinton was the rise of neoliberalism. And a 35 year detour it took the democratic party down the same road Republicans took.
Before Slick Willy, Dems tried to hold politicians responsible.
So:
Every since Bill lied about sexually abusing his interns, there’s been this push to never hold any president accountable for anything, in office or after.
I stand by it, even the autocorrect typos.
I don’t think it’s a unique view that neoliberals act like Republicans and had a death grip on the party from 91-25.
We can’t waste this opportunity now that they don’t
I really want to see a new federal oversight agency for this shit.
Every since Bill lied about sexually abusing his interns, there’s been this push to never hold any president accountable for anything, in office or after.
Obviously the Republicans are going to have terrible shit, but so will Obama and Biden.
We need to hold all of them accountable regardless of letter by name, normalize auditing what prior administrations were up to, and charging people when they find shit like this.
Like “we should hold presidential admins accountable” should be something we all agree on at this point.
I love an optimist, but honestly I’ve gotten burnt a lot here not including the “/s”.
Like, that was pretty thick, but there’s always a chance it gets missed.
Oh…
They could?
On Tuesday, a widely cited psychologist took to YouTube to raise the alarm regarding “more highly concerning behavior” from President Donald Trump.
Next you’re gonna say someone should write an article about it, then post to a link aggregator…
Then people should discuss in the comments.
I agree, I just think people should read the article first buddy
There’s a nonzero chance oligarchs are pushing this to normalize pedophilla.
Like how Ghislane Maxwell was super involved in early reddit and their main draw for a long time was “legal” sexualization of children.
Especially since it’s a common accusation they make against “the left”. Most of the time when they accuse, it’s a confession.
The psychologist?
What the fuck can they do?
But Rudy Ghoulani said it was ok…
I’ll never understand why people think a party controlling politicians is ideal…
Voters should control politicians, and especially for Senators recall votes should be a thing
