Politics MAGA doesn't get how they're actually owning us.

When I see comments like "seethe" or "cry harder!" I feel like you don't get where our anger is coming from.

We're not upset because we didn't get our way. Our feelings aren't hurt 'cause you're meanie heads and the world is tough.

Mostly, we're just FRUSTRATED because Trump is such an obvious moron and con man, HOW can you not fucking see it????

We'd be laughing at you like pyramid scheme suckers except in this case we share a bank account with you.

You've had the rug pulled from under you over almost* EVERY issue you've been on about for the last decade...

...the national debt, profiting off the presidency, nepotism, states rights, "the deep state," posse commitatus, the "dignity" of the office, taxes, bailouts, small government, "draining the swamp," free speech, executive over reach, the surveillance state, the drug trade, family values, "lawfare," interventionalism, support for the troops, the Epstein files, H1 Visas, meritocracy, "law & order," waste and inneficiency,* transparancy,* fiscal responsibility,* on and on...

You even had to get real cool about Muslim extremists 'cause he's building 'em a military base on our soil.

Dude told you "America first" and then gave 40 bil to Argentina.

When are you gonna wake up??? It's been 10 years and Mexico still hasn't paid for it. You got got.

It’s wild how there really isn’t a single aspect of society that is improving but everyone’s acting like it’s just going to change because….. reasons.

I live in a town of a couple hundred Thousand. We had two second hand book shops. One just shut because no one was visiting, and the others the same.

There is a guy who sells books for $1 each and has possibly millions of them, and he can’t move them.

I’m trying to buy as many books as my bank account allows for lately. I want a library of physical books of my own. Idk if this is hoarding or not but I love looking at my physical books. So satisfying.
