I doubt most of the teabaggers would listen to anything that counters their emotional beliefs. And yeah, Maher comes across as smug - but he's not at all wrong....I mean, it's probably even more true these days since California is the 4th largest economy now.

The people always bitching about Cali (but most likely have never been) have real "I hate the prom queen and prom king, they are so stuck up!" energy.

They are extremely cult-like about Taco. I saw one of them put one of those stupid "never give up" shirts [1] on their kids and went out in public with it last summer. I mean, what the actual hell. Who knows if the spell will every break with the true believers. Even if Taco were to stroke out on live tv and shit his diaper, they'd probably blame that on Hillary or Biden or Hunter's hard drive, oops, I mean, "laptop". These people are fucking crazy.

[1] The pose where he was thinking "photo-op" right after the shattered glass hit his ear.

LOL, he must be talking about himself, since he never gives a rat's ass if someone else's life is destroyed - see for example, the outcomes of DOGE, ICE....

Well, he's famous for his foot-wedge.

More illegal market manipulation.

This dickhead should be rotting in prison for so many reasons, including this.

current timestamp + "2 weeks" is always going to be infrastructure week. And any other future news that Taco cares to announce. Whatever your current time is, plus 2 weeks out.

Think anyone in media sets up a 2 week reminder for any of them to then ask one of his spokescreatures some follow-up questions?

I seem to recall reading one of the divisive things the cipherpunks on their mailing list discussion was about untraceable digital money (before Bitcoin) and the thought experiment about just this very kind of thing (minus the siren server like GoFundMe, because why would you want that in the mix if you were doing this kind of thing).

Not that anyone set it up, and the many proposals around digital cash did not really gain traction until 2009 or so...but this was from the 90s.

Yeah, I cannot decide who I'd want least out of those two. They are both so goddamned weird. That porn pact thing that little johnson has with his son - really weird. And he always comes off as just so creepy and awful.

And "JD" - that asshole sitting there and asking Zelenskyy if he said thank you? "JD" can go fuck himself.

I'm picturing Taco dressing up as "Buck Dancer" and arguing over hotel staff about the proper handling of baked goods and whether they are "freshly baked" by the in-house chef, or just Pepperidge Farm products.

🤣

I wonder how many VPNs are compromised, TBH.

I think Maher is right when it come to how people in shithole states are taught to hate California, when the reality is that they are jealous of Cali.

Ugh, does anyone want to see "JD" "Vance" take that role while the qons make a martyr of this shithead?

Or possibly worse, that little dweeby troll magamike johnson if they were to target "JD", too?

The people behind 2025 will use anyone else as their tool and if Taco were to fatwa'ed, it wouldn't make anything better and would most likely make things much worse.

JFC, I loathe douchebags like this so very much.

Because "grift" is why.

They are cucks that very deep into the cult.

I often wonder what goes through the heads of such types - do they honestly think all the people in their lives that might have told them that Republicans are not the ones to help them in this regard, do they just think they are lying to them? Do they just not want to understand this?

Literally in a car with an immigrant right now who voted Trump because things were cheaper before covid.

Good grief.

I’ve watched these imbeciles for decades, praising their Republican leaders for economies that Democrats spent 8 years rebuilding, only for those Republicans to tear it down again. Decades.

Doesn't help when we have lots of bothsiderists and WELLACKTUALLY types that do things like say "well, the market is only for rich people" etc., and acting like Biden really did have a bad economy just like Taco and his cult claim. These are tenuous claims, to be charitable about it. But I keep seeing the claim, over and over.

What? You mean Taco's stuff ends up as a tax that I get to pay?

Also, I'm waiting until Taco goes after every outlet reporting on this in the same way his SpokesBarbie said Amazon listing the cost of tariffs would be a "hostile and political act". At some point, any honest reporting of economics may become a "hostile and political act".

The Orwellians in the WH can then start to correct the history of Biden's economic data to match their bullshit rhetoric about how an actually very healthy economy was actually the "worst ever". Even if we all lived through it and saw with our own eyes the true version of events, we'll be gaslit by repetition about how truly awful the Biden years were, lol. (Doesn't help that a lot of people keep helping the qons in this, by the way).

I mean....it's only just unconstitutional. Clearly. What's the big deal about Taco just declaring whatever the fuck he wants the rules to be?
