      At the start of COVID, besides stealing supplies from “blue” cities, under gunpoint right off the docks, Trump sent 3 testing machines to Putin. When we ALREADY didn’t have enough.

      He delayed doing anything about it, publically saying, paraphrasing, “it seems like a problem for the blue cities” and didn’t lift a finger until people in the south started dropping like flies

      Over average deaths during that time frame are an order of magnitude higher than the actual reported COVID numbers - That is the only metric that matters. And beyond not helping Americans, he actively stifled help from reaching us

      No SINGLE person in our history is responsible for as many deaths as Trump is, due to his hindering relief. He is the biggest killer of Americans the world has ever seen. Putin definitely got his money’s worth.

      And he sold our nuclear tech to the Saudi’s. Wtf else would Kuschner have received 2Billion USD for?

    Funny newspaper treating this like a normal election. If Trump wins the election, democracy and the very idea of future elections are under threat.

          You, as the collective you, have said every election that democracy is on the line. Every single one, some large contingency of neoliberals pulls out ol’ reliable and claims their opponent will end democracy. Trump and Clinton’s camps both did it. Kerry did it, Obama, fucking Clinton(penis) v Dole had that messaging. It’s worse than crying wolf, it shows a ridiculous misunderstanding of what is allowed by the rulers of the country. The rich have no interest in a dictatorship, and they set the rules. The current oligarchy wherein both candidates essentially do the same thing is by far the most profitable arrangement, so it will continue.

            No, most have said that other elections are important, because voting is important and people need to get out to vote in order for their voice to be heard.

            Now that Trump has broadcasted his racism, bigotry, hatred, and a thousand other things that would single-handedly end a campaign, including raping his wife, raping a 14-year-old, giving top secret info to Putin which got federal agents killed, hoarding boxes and boxes of top secret documents, and sooo many fucking other things that would take 20 pages to list. Now that he’s broadcasted all of that, and the propaganda networks that his base watch has filtered everything so well that none of his base actually give a shit, the GOP now has no reason to hide behind their real goals: dismantle government so absolutely that nobody would ever be able to repair it again.

            If Trump is elected, it would not take long for that Reichstag fire event to happen that would solidify their position in power.

            The rich have no interest in a dictatorship, and they set the rules.

            “I don’t want to abolish government. I simply want to reduce it to the size where I can drag it into the bathroom and drown it in the bathtub.” – Grover Norquist

            The rich don’t want a dictatorship. They want anarcho-capitalism, a corporatocracy, a kleptocracy, or any sort of similar concept that would give corporations ultimate power to do whatever the fuck they want, despite the objections or ignorance of the people. That sorta kinda isn’t a democracy.

            Or they’ll still settle on a dictatorship, as long as they get to pull the strings in enough directions.

            The current oligarchy wherein both candidates essentially do the same thing is by far the most profitable arrangement, so it will continue.

            That’s a nice false equivalency you got there. BSABSVR, ammirite?

            There’s only one side that consistently pushes their agenda for the rich and powerful.

              Man neoliberal programming is wild. You think democrats aren’t beholden to the rich and powerful, you believe Trump’s actions are somehow special in any way among politicians (especially the pedophilia), and you think we have a democracy when the US was explicitly set up as an oligarchy.

              Well, like every election, I sincerely hope whomever you’re getting paid to promote loses.

                Gaslight. Obstructionism. Projection.

                Especially the fucking projection. The only way you get to sleep at night is to pretend that the other side is doing the same horrible shit your own party is doing.

                Or maybe it’s not even your own party, and you’re just a tankie troll that doesn’t even live in the US. It’s impossible to tell around here. Republican troll, tankie troll… it doesn’t really matter, since it all benefits Putin, anyway.

                  Yes, everyone that disagrees with you is either a troll, Russian, or whatever else your owners told you to hate.

                  And yes, there are a lot of dem pedophiles, one was president for 8 years and you people tried to shove his pedo wife down our throats causing the first Trump victory.
