  1. Well almost. In your case it means taking money from SOME people all your life and then support them in whatever endeavor they may pursue. Like wiping out a couple of million people in the middle east for instance.

  2. Christian Nationalism strikes me as an attempt to avoid the more apt term Christian Fascism. Go on, the base wouldn't mind.

  3. He is defending YOUR (poor excuse for a) democracy alright. Abroad however he is defending fascism and genocide. Woop-ti-doo!

  4. So, you install fascist dictators around the globe but you don't want one for yourselves?

  6. Strong start, not so great sequel. Focusing on hostages now is like making a point about the color of the gas chambers in Auschwitz. Your bombs are the issue, no water is the issue. If you need it (which you shouldn't): hostages are not exactly immune to bombs or lack of water either.

  7. So, "more war" is the argument against Trump? The only positive about Trump is that his foreign policy might be less desastrous than that of Biden and you bring that up to stop him? You people deserve Trump.

  8. Blue janoside or red janoside. Your choice.

  9. Janocidal maniac.

  10. They don't care if they win or lose, their seats are safe either way. They're taking money from the same donors as republicans, all is well in Washington.

  11. Most of them are running for vice president. Some are hoping trump will be in prison before the nominee election and they will be an acceptable second choice to the trump fans.

  12. Jill Stein is a woman.

  14. Among republicans, sure.

  15. You may be missing the point. Dark means invisible here. Like white can mean blank, unspecified.

  16.  @steveblankenship5474  I haven't watched this particular thing because it is not on the platform I dwell on (YouTube) but I do follow anything trumpy and I am not even an American. It is just fascinating, it is worrying and it beats any kind of entertainment. I want to see him and his movement go down. Twitter has a lot of users and this was probably promoted so the threshold of clicking on it for daily users of Twitter was probably low.

  17. I love the crying child routine. Well played.

  18. Yeah, well. Joe is supporting fascists in Isteal and in Ukraine.

  19. Why is he singled out?

  20. @jeffreypoirier7786  Manners aside, they both serve the same masters.

  21. These are the things that make him rich, liberals making fun of him. He started off asking $200, yesterday was up to $500, these mockeries are just free nation wide ads.

  22. And he blew it all by showing us who really owns him when it is about matters of life and death.

  23. They are war criminals no better than the likes of G.W. Bush, Dick Cheney and Donald Rumsfeld.

  24. You moral bankruptcy is beyond complete when you criticize Donald Trump for not supporting Benjamin Netanyahu.

  25. Maybe if they could have them comment on these clips in a smart way with a draggy voice. That could be fun. Like Ozzy man.

  26. Is this a response to Joe's stage dive? I was actually impressed by that.

  27. Not a great example. The US created this mess with their "unwavering support" of the Israelian apartheid state. To now talk about "the Jewish people" is cheap campaign talk. This isn't about "the Jewish people", it's about desparate resistence against a fascist regime that has all the power and yields it every day to oppress he poor some more.

  28. Cut the crap folks. Israel is steps ahead of what trump world is only dreaming of and Genocide Joe is actively supporting them. Do you really want to be complicit?

  29. At this moment he is competently supporting genocide. It would be nice and make it easier for people to vote for him if he would instead make a credible effort to stop it.

  30. It would be nice if the next 4 years could be less janosidal than the current term.

  31. It took me a while to figure out, this must have been a football match (I know, "soccer"), probably in England. How disappointing.

  32. There's a whole bunch of them in Israel going full fascism. They already had apartheid and they killed the separation of powers just yesterday. So they're not immune to it for sure.

  33. Hurray. Defending democracy at home, supporting fascism with everything it entails abroad.

  34.  @heathermccall8015  No, he's not supporting Russia.

  35.  @samholcombe3129  All very well, republicans are not in federal government. The US siding with what is possibly the most racist and fascist government of any country today, that is carrying out a violent genocide, is entirely on the Biden government and the democratic party condoning it. The Lincoln Project's message is not credible. It puzzles me what their motives are. Israel is steps ahead of what trump world is only dreaming of. Biden unconditionally supports them nonetheless and TLP totally ignores this and keeps portraying Biden as if he would be the lord and savior against fascism. I can only guess they are bought and paid for too and cannot afford to change course no matter what. Or they just don't care about democracy as much as they want you to believe and they are just working for the same folks that own Biden.

  36. That musical score doesn't help. It makes an important message sound cheap, as if I am watching some run off the mill C-class action movie.

  37. The irony is that fascists aren't true republicans, they are monarchists. They want an all mighty king to suck up to. And yet some want states to leave the federation. It makes no sense, idealogically.

  38. She blinks a lot. I am inclined to believe that is just the chemicals from the pancake on her face rather then the lying and whatever is left of a concience acting up.

  39. I suspect the lady who was so nice to offer MTG her pillow was not a republican. But I guess it was just too good to not include.

  40. Yeah, vote blue and all. But is this bad? I understood he wants to legalize abortion up until about 3 months into the pregnancy, which is common in civilized countries. It seems to me he is picking up the pieces of the mess his fellow republicans made. Of course, promising to have a vote is a trick. With a republican majority that bill would not pass and that would be it.

  41. ​ @Themadcelticshoe No, them guys want to allow parents and their doctors and their child to make a good decision for their child. Democrats as a political party have no interest in this. Big pharma may have. Actively selling meds to patience is a problem, hence your opioid crisis for instance. Allowing capitalism to run health care is purely a right wing made problem. Most countries have something better and cheaper that primarily helps patients. But this wasn't about health care, was it? "You guys" want to prevent children to learn anything about history by banning books and instead pushing a state narrative. Are you OK with that?

  42. This would have made sense if we had not seen the current administration wholeheartedly support fascism and crack down on people opposing it.

  43. Black people cheering on Hitler... It doesn't get any better than that. There weren't enough black people in Germany at the time to get people worked up about. To him and his lot though they would have ranked shortly after Bonobo's.

  44. Now that's energy. That's enthusiasm. Who said anything about trump fatigue?

  45. Having big business pay their fair share of taxes is a bad thing now? That whole special status thing was indefensible from the start. It seems to me they are finally doing something right. If they want to crack down on air travel companies for having pink planes rather than for destroying the planet, by all means, please do.

  46. I wonder how this would help Republicans. Democrats know what this is about, they won't be tempted. Plus, they all hate Manchin. Republicans who are not keen on Trump but are reluctant to vote democrat however would seem more likely to be tempted and split the republican vote. And there are a lot of those. Am I missing something?

  47. 1:11 Oh, the irony.

  48. Yes, literally. Let that sink in. Your "democracy" was fucked long before trump.

  49. PAB. I looked it up and learned something.

  50. Same ad that worked for MTG.
