The best outcome would be for him to lose the Republican primary and run as an independent so he can split the vote and guarantee we don’t see more Republicans in power for a little while.
Any loss for them is a win for America

It sounds appealing, but I don't like playing with fire. Not taking Trump seriously was part of how he got the presidency in the first place.

Trump is Little finger. He would burn and kill everyone to be president of bones and ash.

What a well thought out and unique take!
Republicans bad indeed!
Allopathological t1_iwqk6q6 wrote
Republican controlled states have higher rates of poverty & maternal death. Republican economic policies often mathematically make no sense and are literally impossible to implement. Republican controlled states also have worse health care outcomes and shorter lifespans for their residents.
Empirically it is worse to live under Republican control. Their policies are bad, unpopular, and really only benefit the rich and those in power they’ve leveraged this power to stay in power for decades longer than they should have be it be via gerrymandering, voter suppression, or propaganda outlets. Fox News was literally developed to be a propaganda box with the intention of painting republicans in a good light.
They know their policies are unpopular which is why they rely so heavily on the electoral college (nationally) and gerrymandering (within states) because if it were up to the people of this nation to choose who they wanted to represent them republicans would lose every time. They’ve lost every popular vote since GHWB in 1988 nearly 35 years ago.
Was that well thought out enough for you?
Democrats have their fair share of problems and bullshit but you really can’t compare the two.

Republicans’ actions speak for themselves. They’re evil people who always choose the worst option when given a choice.
If you don’t think they’re evil then that’s ok but it says a lot about your morals. Or more accurately lack of morals.

You're absolutely right, and the democrats are angels sent directly from the heavens to save us from the evil republicans.
Stop being dramatic please. If you don't like republicans that's fine but don't act like the democrats are some holy saviors of humanity.
They'll end up disappointing you like they always do when they don't actually follow through on any of their pandering promises (which I'm well aware the republicans do too).

We love high inflation oil shortages and extremely high food costs and energy let’s shut down 28 percent of our energy without anything to replace it coal plants let’s shut them fown Keri’s Biden is a douche

So you’re still pretending that higher prices are Biden’s fault?
That’s a good brainwashed doggy
HiHo-Silver t1_iwoq5ug wrote
If you unleash the power of the United States is it energy production we would be fine he’s talking about shutting down Cole plants 28% of our grid with nothing to replace it solar and wind are not ready to take the entire grid over. So meanwhile he cuts energy down Here and goes around the world begging others to increase production we have plenty of production capacity he is stifling it you don’t have to believe me because you’re brainwashed to. This isn’t all Putin‘s fault. He spent 5 trillion in two years that’s inflation. I’m not saying Trump is better I don’t think he should run they both need to go away they’re both way too fucking old. Even the Democrats don’t want to run Biden to whoever they run? Biden won’t live through a second term. And Trump is too old to. DeSantis is who you have to watch out for.

These people are too blinded by their ignorance and hate. Even the simplest minded could see inflation and gas prices are up all over the world. Oil companies are posting record profits, etc. These people are just complete idiots. Like their orange god said, he loves the poorly educated.
Allopathological t1_iwqhrj5 wrote
oil companies are using the global geopolitical climate to gouge prices. Oil and gas companies are posting record profits. It’s not an issue of lack of oil supply, it’s an issue of artificially reduced supply to jack up prices. OPEC nations literally burn a portion of the oil they dig up 24/7 365 to prevent extra oil from reaching the market and reducing prices.
I’ll remind you, Biden does not set or control gas prices.

Any idiot knows that petroleum prices are set by the global market, not a US president.
Well, almost any idiot...
HiHo-Silver t1_iy9yvfx wrote
Just wait till their shortage is here in New England or when you get your next bill. This is the 70s on steroids. They are predicting rolling blackouts here in the middle of the winter in Rhode Island. And you guys think hey this is great. Nobody’s doing anything to help the taxpayer. People are scrambling to figure out how they’re going to pay to heat their homes. Joe Biden is a bumbling dementia riddle idiot. Trump is a douche bag none of these people care about you. They only want your tax money. Everyone I know is struggling Under this moron potus. Energy is the lifeblood of America if you wage war against it for green energy than your waging war against the economy of the United States. I have solar panels I am all for alternative energy but it can never replace 100% of the grid of the United States. Read up on what Germany tried it failed they are scrambling opening up coal plants and scrambling to figure out how to heat their homes in the middle of the winter because Russia is cut off their gas. Germany tried going all green it literally failed. The tech isn’t quite there yet.

Two wings of the same bird. I stead of trying to push them further. You'd do well to try to bring everyone together. Your hate for trump and republicans is no better than their hate of you amongst the other shit they spread

Yz-Guy t1_iwocbok wrote
It's not going to be everyone. But not every republican disagrees with facts. Which is something that is very forgotten. The loudest that you hear and see makes up a small percentage that is the loudest.
But overall. The instant categorization of "oh opposite party is bad" is terrible and dividing the country vastly

It's pretty obvious at this point that if you're pro-Trump you are a bad person. It's kinda disgusting how people can try to validate it. He's a lying abusive racist grifter rapist conman who preys on emotionally and intellectually frail people. It's not even hidden. You support that, it's not even Republican at this point. MAGA has split off and taken the majority of them with it. We got out third party.

Lol. No. It's pretty obvious you're jumping to conclusions. Im not pro trump. I'm definitely not a bad person. But once again you're just assuming I'm bad based on who I had the ability to vote on.
The best part of this is. I'm trying to push civility and peace and youre spitting in my face and calling me names. You are littleral no better than the maga hat wearing racist out there. Bc you've chosen one quality you don't like (which does t appt to me) and deemed it bad and evil.
However I'm not gonna win arguing with the likes on you on the internet. Have a good day and enjoy life.

You don't have to root for them. But you can general respect and civility. An understanding that they're still your fellow citizens. There is no need to be nasty. And I'm not saying you are. But so many others definitely are.

there was nothing close to disrespectful about the first comment you replied to, and frankly even if there had been you're speaking in defense of the people who run on the concept of "fuck your feelings" so to be fair you are coming off at best like someone who's lived under a rock for at least a decade.
what seems more likely though is you recognize how silly you sound but hiding behind calls for civility gives you an imagined moral high ground

Trump and his Trumpanzees are the only traitors though, so hating them makes plenty of sense.
