Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) underscored the stakes of the November election after former President Trump warned of a “bloodbath” for the auto industry and the country if he doesn’t win a second term in the White House.

“What does that mean? He’s going to exact a bloodbath? There’s something wrong here. How respectful I am of the American people and their goodness. But how much more do they have to see from him to understand that this isn’t what our country is about?” Pelosi continued. “Praising Hitler, praising the Russians, honestly, I mean, condemning our soldiers for losing or dying in war or being captured in war.”

libs are really trying to make "bloodbath" happen, as if they never heard a metaphor before.

I think they’re genuinely flabbergasted that this is the issue that’s sinking them.

It explains banning tiktok. The idea that the livestock might have minds of their own and could arrive at the conclusion that “genocide bad” all on their own, is simply inconceivable to them. So it absolutely has to be a foreign conspiracy because they can’t imagine a world where the peasants don’t enthusiastically support projects like emptying the national treasury maintaining a mighty bastion of White Judeo-Christian civilization in the heart of Mohammedism for the benefit of the nobility.

Biden ran on decriminalizing marijuana. It was part of his platform (lol) and both Biden and Harris said, directly, that they would do it. Then after the election they both said nah, it's not a priority, we're busy with other things. Then they did nothing for 2 years, then that joke pardon thing that freed zero people from prison. Now they're going to promise it again and people will believe them again because everything is stupid.

Biden ran on a public option during the 2020 primary and then upon taking office he's never so much as even brought it up. Completely forgotten. On purpose of course.

they are scarcely doing that to keep their voting base together for the 2024 election. they'd have this in the bag if they lied more and presented more empty proposals and collaborations with cultural elites. the dems can't even be bothered to do that! there are millions of progressives out there who just want to be lied to. all they want to hear is that incremental progress is incrementally progressing.

And the biggest joke of the night: an impeachment inquiry. Imagine believing something so baseless that has a zero chance of succeeding. But Republicans would rather fail at impeachment than succeed at anything else. (Laughter.)

Of course, the big news this week is two candidates clinched their parties’ nomination for president. One candidate is too old and mentally unfit to be president. The other is me. (Laughter and applause.)

It's no fair that Trump is a better public speaker than Biden!

I hate both of those old rapist motherfuckers, and I wish they would both lose to someone who isn't a soulless ghoul, but I will laugh and laugh when Biden manages to eat almost as much poo poo as Hillary (I say almost since he did manage to win at least once, which is more than she can say)

There's a possibility Trump would be more of a sassy queen while genociding, but there's also a chance that Netanyahu would walk in front of him during a conversation and Trump would unilaterally cut funding to Israel, so...

i observed while in china that bing actually seems to work significantly better under great firewall restrictions which leads me to believe that one of the evil communist rules heroic companies like google refuse to abide by is dont make search results shittier for no reason
