She didn't. If they weren't voting for trump she didn't call them deplorable. Also, she was referring to only a subset of trump voters. She said you could separate trump supporters into two groups, one was a basket of deplorables. They seem fine with "murderers rapist and thieves and some I assume are good people ", but "there are neo nazis supporting this man, we need to reach the non nei nazis on his side" is too far.

Pineapples are ribbed for pleasure

It's old enough that I don't actually know where is originally from. Another use posted something from over five years ago, and a comment is saying the image is "old enough to get its learner's permit". Maybe a hyperbole but that's what it feels like.

This image is ancient. That may just be an artifact, ai generation at that time as a lot more trippy. I think this is before deep dream.

Or they were thinking that russia was going to be a rational actor and stop before it's collapse.

If we are breaking it to that point, then he'll just run again and kill any one who runs against him. Officially of course. That way it can't be a crime. Or he could just retire like sulla did after dealing the mortal blow to the republic. Will it really matter at that point if everything is "fixed"

Who was the party threatening to use the military on their opposition? The democrats don't have faith this will work, their only hope to avoid a night of long knives is to pray they were wrong. I don't think they were though

Well you detain them before you deport them, then while you are processing them you have them all concentrated....in a camp

Identity politics? That's a republican issue. They bring it up. The most democrats do is block, but all the punches are thrown by the right in campaigns. I didn't even hear a gun control proposal this round.

There may exist a scenario where north korea is trying to build something that looks suspiciously like an Ohio class submarine and he has a strange golf bar appear on his desk.

The president can't? Let's see of the Supreme Court has anything to say about that. Right now, I'm not confident the word can't is in their dictionary as far as a president is concerned.

I get so frustrated at the poor messaging. Glen younkin stood on stage against mcauffee and straight up lied about crt in school, and no body called him out in it.

I blame the smallest minority: jill stein

Can't wait four the next 3 years of nothing from her.

Hillary was the lightning rod of the party for 20 years. If thought that that had something to do with it. There's something we aren't acknowledging. There's a something wrong in the heart of America and its growing, not shrinking. Whatever that emotion that's driven it, it's not going away.

I guess I forgot to mention it, but he has also always had a temper.

I added in some paragraphs

Let me think about what I know about a trump supporter in my family who wasn't one in 2016, but was die hard in 2020 and 2024.

Nothing has ever been his fault. He used to buy into supernatural urban legend stuff. I don't know if he still does. He had no job in 2020 but still thinks he was doing better than in 2016, so his own employment either doesn't matter to his well-being, or he's detached from reality. I mean I think it's the second.

He didn't used to be racist (10 years ago), but I'm pretty sure he quotes fbi crime statistics without context now. I'm not sure how you reach that. He used to be moderate or even left of american center, but now all the news that is not Tim Poole is fake.

Oh and he was part of an ayn rand sex cult for a year there. He still believes her stuff despite having been kicked out by the leader.

I don't think he's newly mobilized though so whoever was this go around may be different. I don't know if it matters now. I feel like organizing may get some crack down in the near future. Best case is he's so incompetent that he can't implement the policies he said he will and people can vote freely in the future.

I think the important part is that it's florida that'd be removing them, and the rest of it that I didn't copy is how florida restores them. This is Florida's constitution. If we interpreted that way, he can never get them back. Florida took them away and he cannot have them back until NY restores them, which they can't

That's the thing I've read before, but does

"No person convicted of a felony, or adjudicated in this or any other state to be mentally incompetent, shall be qualified to vote or hold office until restoration of civil rights or removal of disability. Except as provided in subsection (b) of this section, any disqualification from voting arising from a felony conviction shall terminate and voting rights shall be restored upon completion of all terms of sentence including parole or probation."

mean that it excludes it when the other state doesn't have a rule removing rights? Maybe a lawyer can explain it to me, but following the links to the actual law seems to contradict what's on the page from how I understand it. Also what's in the page seemed to get edited there as soon as people started asking about it.

It's hard to hide some crimes. If someone reports a body, someone reports a body.
