GET OUT: US politics November 2020

xpost - I can only assume at this point that the moderators in charge of FB are purposefully trying to do as much evil as possible. My wife's friend was getting harassed by a Trump supporter after a heated political argument in a mutual's comments and the guy threatened to doxx her, implied he knew where she worked and posted not so veiled threats about what harm "antifa members like her" deserved. Every single complaint she passed along to FB came as "didn't violate community standards". She finally flipped and called him a "stupid fucking asshole" and nearly instantly got a week ban.

Joe Biden fucking sucks, I hate him

Seth Harris has now been revealed to be on the Biden-Harris labor transition team. He helped spark Uber’s war on gig workers by formalizing the third worker category, but as ⁦@MaxMoranHi⁩ wrote last month, he’s also a uniquely bad lobbyist. https://t.co/OUHjLholEE

pretending to be a black man online so you could post more freely about how much you hate black people was a weird plan, dean pic.twitter.com/Qc99VQnqBh

"They say this is all part of walking President Trump through this process emotionally and that they assume that while he may never concede, he will leave. There will be, they say, a peaceful transition of power to the Biden-Harris administration on January 20. They say that."

Glad we are all making sure that Trump is being properly "walked through this process emotionally."

WHAT. THE. FUCK.

@DeanBrowningPA, can you explain this to me? pic.twitter.com/PaUp4u1ff7

he is going to embrace self-care and take time every day for journaling xp WTF

a lot of these conservatives look the same to me. you could have told me dean browning was a picture of sean spicer.

the dean browning thing is bringing a much needed note of levity to my anxious day

i think it's kind of gross and creepy

funny like cronenberg, not charlie brown ya know

think about this.

the GOP is afraid of death threats *from their own voters*.

what a healthy, well-run party.

US defense official confirms: chief of staff Jen Stewart replaced by Kash Patel, a former Devin Nunes staffer who worked to discredit the Russia investigation. Also out, Vice Admiral Joseph Kernan, ret Navy SEAL who was Undersecretary of Defense for Intelligence.

xpost - it's almost as if courting loonies and inciting violence at every turn when things don't pan out as you'd hoped might have consequences...

i've always said it: one man's narcissistic fantasy is not a stable basis for a national political party.

I never thought of Cronenberg and Charlie Brown as the two archetypes of funny before

well, welcome to school

Once Trump can see a 'path to losing' with his own eyes, he will embrace it. But not a moment before.

can't a Secret service member accidentally fall on top of Trump and accidentally choke him

it doesn't matter what he thinks anymore. that's the beauty of it.

we don't need to worry about it. he will become less relevant every day from now until january 20th and then dissolve into a pile of dust.

he won't be able to think if he can't breathe

How accurate is the 'top Republicans joining in with Trump election fraud claim' thing - is it just a few usual suspects or an actual happening?

most are kind of mildly doing it, like they always do. the coward's path.

most of the people like McConnell aren't saying 'there's fraud, Trump will win', they're saying 'he has a right to have it investigated and we need to take time to make sure all the votes are counted', just bet hedgy shit.

the only people who made actual statements from high up intimating Trump won and there was rampant fraud were Kevin McCarthy (he walked it back a wee bit), Lindsay Graham (only that he said there was fraud in PA, but he didn't say Trump won), and Pompeo today who was 'joking'.

"well i think, you know, if there are, um, as the president said, we need to count every vote."

I think at this point it's just a sneaky fundraising ploy

they're like "i'm not sayin, i'm just sayin'"

people in the actual administration will be more likely to go in for this than members of congress

https://www.politico.com/news/2020/11/09/how-gop-is-handling-trumps-non-concession-435376

do they think they won't get death threats from Trumpers after he loses anyway for "not trying hard enough"?

give those idiots a reason, they'll disguise their voice and threaten the Pope

I guess Cruz and Tuberville said some shit but they're not people so

Thread by Asha Rangappa on the flurry of DoD staff replacements. "I smell a coverup, not a coup".

Something is up -- Nunes' other goon, Michael Ellis, who also was in the NSC, was made General Counsel of NSA today. It's like Crabbe and Goyle infiltrating the Pentagon and NSA. https://t.co/8myUpBQZnh

The fact that there is a guy in politics named Tommy Tuberville cracks me up, because it always makes me think of Toonerville Trolley.

*sung to the tune of Race Chasers* "Race TRADERS woo-hoo"

Yeah, why can't everyone just succeed like Whoopie? Slackers.
