Joe Biden’s victory in the 2020 election was not due to any erosion in support for Donald Trump. Rather, not only did Trump’s raw vote total increase, but in the key states of Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, and Michigan, Trump’s share of the vote actually increased.

Still mind-boggling and a source of great personal disgust while being a national disgrace. One can only hope that enough people have soured on him since then, after countless displays of racism, xenophobia, sexism, authoritarianism, bigotry, and incompetence. A twice impeached loser felon grifter that's clearly a russian asset should not stand a chance, yet here we are. Makes me sad.

Between the people trying to give you healthcare and secure your job, and the people trying to let your miscarrying wife bleed out in the parking lot of a for-profit hospital, some morons prefer the latter. Why? "because he's racist like me!" seems to be the deciding factor. Yes, that is why my parents are voting for him. and my mom is a poll-worker 🤦‍♂️

It's really a terrible place to live if you're not rich and white.

No, you're thinking of the Flaming Lips.

Rage Against the Machine is about exceedingly long carpentry nails.

I miss when conservatives tried to conserve things like national parks (i.e. Teddy Roosevelt) instead of using conservatism as a mask for racism.

It's like, it seems appropriate for a two party system to have one party push for progress, while the other advises caution. But they dropped the euphemism and have been just blatantly racist/xenophobic/anti-other for far too long to pretend now that conservatism is anything else.

lmao that dude is leaving nothing but debt and shame

are European countries regularly taking in migrant populations equal to their countries population?

my bong has a bunch of crevices/nooks that get gunked up with resin n' such. Put in some salt, a healthy splash of alcohol, and shake it up! you'll be surprised how much that gets.

It's hard, because the media is rightfully pointing a spotlight at her saying "wow, look at this racist dirtbag who's in drumpfs inner circle! This shit is disqualifying!" and then alt-right dicktater-lovers see that and say "that's our girl!"

It's like... you can't fault the news for bringing attention to the appalling behavior of people in positions of power/influence. It's just that all the racists are mask-off now and drumpf is appealing directly to them, as opposed to trying to reach any moderate voter.

Fortunately it seems that most alt-right racist opportunists only ever get a glimpse of success, as their base is one that is forever moving goalposts, and will eat their own at the slightest hint that they're not as racist as them. They burn brightly, and then fade away with their reputations forever stained, only ever gaining employment through attempts to re-validate their xenophobic/hateful credentials. It's a pitiful excuse for a life.

nose job, cheek fillers, botox, all before 30? yup. looks weird.

For a bit of non-traditional men's fashion, I want a a cape/cloak made of nice cotton, one that is swooping with clean lines. You can wrap it around you for a bit of warmth on a brisk day, or let it hang open for a breeze.

You can have informal, casual ones for out and about, or formal ones that have a rigid collar and can be affixed in front like a traditional jacket.

They're comfy, protect your skin from sun damage, can be worn in layers, and if you're in a pinch for tourniquet cloth, plenty of fabric!

I have an old, ripped up pair of work pants I use to do outdoor work like mowing the lawn. About a month ago a new rip appeared at the base of my buttocks that I didn't really notice until one day I went to mow sans underwear. Lemme tell ya, the brief breezes of cool air that would get me right in the nethers was so refreshing. Like drinking from a crystal clear and cool mountain stream, except with my balls.

So if not short-shorts, perhaps some expertly tailored pants with breathable mesh in specific areas? or kilts? kilts would work great 👌

Sounds like an awful slippery slope 🙄

Well good thing we're not taking in 330 million immigrants all at once then, so this will never be a problem.

That money comes from taxes that rise with increased economic activity that rise with the population.

It's a racist lie that increased immigration leads to increased crime.

Ew. it's like you can smell the daddy issues from here. That woman is in dire need of therapy.

if you're into that, just wait till you hear about alcohol and cigarettes! Anxiety, paranoia and panic attacks seem fine compared to Cirrhosis, COPD, Emphysema, Cancer, Stroke, Renal Failure, Kidney Failure, and Fatty Liver Disease. All of them painful, all of them deadly.

But god forbid people smoke some weed 🙄 They might in very rare occasions get a temporary increase in anxiety!

If they let you stay in the car, they’ve already decided you probably aren’t going to grab a gun from under the seat. So there’s no safety issue for them.

Dude, you aren't making a lick of sense. Google "officer shot during traffic stop" and tell me again that keeping your window rolled down during a traffic stop is unreasonable.

crack the window as necessary, get out when ordered
