You're not wrong. But you're like nine years late on this one.

In our beautiful current year of 2024 the fucker is running again after being impeached twice, after losing in 2020, after becoming a convicted felon.

Was that the number of wigglers he injected into Stormy Daniels?

It's the upper bound

Indeed. Might not be the rhetoric from this go round, but it’s great that you’re shining a spotlight on it. One more word soup statement that was a projection imo.

You know we all are so focused on him not being reelected in 2024 that we forget that if he won't he'll definitely find a way to run again in 2028 and we have all this hell all over again

Ignoring all that. Are he and Biden truly the best that that country has to offer, out of the ~~~290mil~~ ~184mil native-born citizens over age 35?? I don't believe that.

Edit: added restrictions on the age group.

“Ignoring all that”

keep whining… keep adding conditionals…

Read the rest of the comment, before you get angry. You may find that full opinions are a little easier to swallow than the partial you chose to hear.

Nothing unread. Nothing of value was lost. No value missed. You cling to BS.

Random string of numbers weighs in…

If you think it's random, then we're done here.

He doesn’t want to get rid of the swamp, he wants to rule it.

I like that boulder. That is a nice boulder.

Dumbass knows nothing about ecology.

Swamp creatures lives matter. Make swamp creatures great again.

Not how wetlands work.

If the politicians and bureaucrats that Trump and friends pushed out are like murky swamp water, then the ones he brought in are like raw sewage, so I always said that he only wanted to "drain the swamp" so he'd have room to pump in said raw sewage.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 months ago

He wanted to drain the swamp to make room for the sewage he pumped in

[–] Crashumbc 3 points 3 months ago

He wanted to drain the swamp of the other guys. NOT his guys.

Trump

I was expecting to see a massive political fight but everyone is being civil.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (1 children)

It's lemmy, everyone is left of Biden at least, I would say at least 30% are communists or anarchists

Ok well everywhere worth visiting on here.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 3 months ago

I'm not but I realize I'm a minority

I honestly rather the slight left than the far right

A swamp supports a vibrant ecosystem he wants to destroy and pour over with concrete. Its like the Everglades and the sugar farmers all over again.

[–] MehBlah 2 points 3 months ago

Scum floats to the top of the swamp and when it gets there is no longer wants the swamp to drain.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 months ago

Swamp the vote
