Well, that aligns with the vibes I was getting. Which was, like, "normal" kinda vibes.
It can both, although the example I was forming relies on a certain amount of introspection on the part of the president so I guess maybe not.

When people say the impeachment inquiry is a "coup" or "undoing the 2016” election, do they think that if Trump is voted out by the Senate, that he is replaced with Hillary Clinton?

Trump sold himself as a strongman and repeatedly makes overt allusions to becoming a dictator (such as "jokingly" suggesting removing term limits and claiming that any election loss is fraud that his supporters must violently oppose), so his base has gotten locked into the idea that Trump is personally responsible for everything and that removing him from office is our way of stopping him for good.

There are people on both sides seriously spreading a conspiracy that Hillary is secretly planning on showing up in 2020 to steal the DNC nomination and become president. Both the far right and far left have a bizarre obsession with her as some megalomaniacal figure who's been pulling the strings for decades and trying to take over the world.

I tried so hard to explain this to liberals during the 2016 election that Hilary was a bad candidate for this reason. She was the absolute worst of both worlds-- too centrist to effect change on toxic US policy, and too polarizing to be an effective leader. The weird intensity of emotions she raises by simply existing makes her untenable, let alone what happens when she actually opens her mouth. She's been under the radar af since 2016 and people still obsess over her.

I know the common Q conspiracy is that Hillary has been arrested or even already executed and we're only seeing a body double, but I wonder if after her death the conspiracy will shift to "She's secretly still alive and planning a comeback!"

Straightforward from here:
1. Impeach Trump and Pence
2. Constitutional crisis
3. President Pelosi names Hillary vice president
4. Pelosi steps down
5. President Clinton

I said pretty much this same thing to my liberal friends but added that she had no chance of getting any swing voters and it very much pissed them off.

The best possible read on this I can put together is that it could be an attempt to block report bombing tweets you don't agree with

However, the people who do report bombing are already perfectly willing to claim to have been directly attacked lol

This is explicitly about allowing right wingers to harrass abduse people online. There's no "good intention" behind this and it's counterproductive to try to find one.

To make it even better, not only is he name searching, but Lindsay didn't even tweet about it. She just retweeted someone else, so he's trying and failing to roast a retweet.

So someone in the comments mentioned Soul Man, and I found this take in the Wikipedia page, a take that did not age well:

quote:

In defending the film, producer Steve Tisch said it was like Tootsie. "It used comedy as a device to expose sexual stereotyping. I think Soul Man uses it to explode racial stereotyping."[7]
