@btp Or Palestinians who KNOW that Trump has said Netanyahu hasn't gone far enough and that Kushner would like to turn Gaza into a beachfront development, watching Americans claim to care about Gaza above all else, but who won't suffer the consequences of their "taking a stand" vote, who are helping to make Trump and an even worse nightmare for Palestinians a reality. #USPol

Just wanted to say to all mastodinians how much I have appreciated being able to endure these very tough times and last few weeks with you. I am cautiously optimistic we will all get to sigh a huge sigh of relief and celebrate with one another. #Mastodon #ThankYou #TeamTogether #Vote #AmericaCanDoThis #election2024

@jcrossonhill @GottaLaff It crossed my mind that Trump may have made the calculus, that if he builds a huge cult of grievance and outrage that they lost an election, they will continue to buy his cheap gaudy stuff and he'll continue to be able to grift without having to pretend to show up for work. Obviously not the plan of those who are using him as the figurehead to jackboot themselves into positions of power. Trump himself is just off his rocker.

@GottaLaff This just chilled me to the bone. https://youtu.be/fMjhl9jxrug?si=2Nf63G_3SX6FwyTg (by the Lincoln Project) "Can you hear him now?"

@GottaLaff What Bezos said in 2013: “There would be change with or without new ownership,” he said. “But the key thing I hope people will take away from this is that the values of The Post do not need changing. The duty of the paper is to the readers, not the owners.”
