I remember some farmer-looking MAGA schmuck saying he was sure Trump would be happy to sit down and have a beer with him and treat him like an equal.

Yeah and im sure ill be named the pope next year. These people are so fuckin’ delulu
Play your cards right and you might become pope sooner than you think.
Unfortunately I'm not a contender in that pool. I have not molested enough(any) children. Which also precludes me from holding the oval office.
Have you considered living in a cave, hearing about a mess of a new pope election, and telling them that God told you in a dream that they better hurry up? Because that's how Celestine V got the job.
He was also really bad at it, knew he was bad at it, and resigned in 5 months.
Be the change you want to see, my friend!
(but please don't molest any children)
This is the one thing I don't get, the people who look up to him the most are disgusted by "The Liberal Elite"
I'm like "He's a New York Real Estate Mogul who refuses to pay contractors and spends the savings on overdone steaks to dip in ketchup, bro IS the Liberal Elite!"
The weren’t told what liberalism was, they were just told it’s their enemy. Now they just conflate it with Democrats even though most of everyone in America is liberal.
I don’t think liberal really means what you think it means in the context you said it.
He’s an East Coast wealthy New York elitist. But liberal? He’s racist, misogynist, authoritarian, tax-dodging, etc. I don’t see much anything liberal about him.
That’s going to be the case for any capitalist party. Only a worker’s party will associate with workers.
I have a lot of criticism for the Dems, but I've also worked with them at several levels. A huge portion of the party is former or current blue collar. I think a lot of people see what they want to see. It's easy to think of the party as evil corpo shills, but the problem really is that the corpo shills rise to the top, not that they are as prevalent as people think they are. Money puts people in the executive.
That is the problem, and it's a pretty huge problem.
I don't understand your position. If the party is being run by evil corpo shills, that makes it an evil corpo shill party?
If you want to run for president, governor, or mayor those positions attract enough money to effectively remove authenticity from the race. If you have 4 Dems in the primary and 1 of them is a business dem, that's the one most likely to have enormous capital shifted to. Which creates the conditions for their future victory. Our system of government and economic system are both infinitely corruptible irrespective of party.
I don’t care if there are workers serving in a capitalist party. They’re class traitors. Capitalism is inherently anti-worker.
