Dick Cheney was terrible as Vice President - definitely the one pulling the strings of George W. Bush…

>>1454741 (OP)
Not as notable, but I do think it's really fucking funny the NJ Governor GOP candidate got Trump or someone in the admin to leak his opponent's service record in an attempt to discredit her... and still fucking lost by a landslide lmao

>>1454742
The woman who leaked Jay Jones' texts is also about to lose her seat too

>>1454743
GOP pulled all the stops and are realizing 2024 was a fluke lmao. Total Republican control has been such a massive disaster it soured everyone's opinions of Republicans.

>>1454744
Despite him ignoring 3 years of manufactured hype and obliterating Meatball Ron and steamrolling to another victory they still haven't figured out that Trump is the only modern Republican that anyone likes. All this has done is make me more excited for Vance 2028

>>1454749
>>1454744
They fail to realize that Trump only won because enough idiots vote change for the sake of change. In that sense, he's Evil Obama.
The midterms are going to eat the GOP alive because Trump is actually fucking with people this time compared to his relatively subdued first term.

There is no mandate, there was never a mandate, and people are going to have to learn the hard way.

>>1454751
The worry I have is that they’ll just fucking rig it in some way or another. And what then?
Like, the midterms are red down the ballot, every ballot. Not a single person voted blue in the entire country, trust us bro we totally won. Now what? There won’t be an investigation or something, it’s not like the dems could ever do anything in the face of that, and what good are protests if they’re willing to just cheat?
I know I should work the problem and not make it worse by speculating, but…fuck, man, I can’t help it.

>>1454752
If they didn't rig New York Mayoral, they can't rig nationwide.

They looked at the muslim communists and thought
>"hey, this doesn't seem this bad"

>>1454761
When the alternative was the guy who killed a bunch of grandparents, sexually harassed multiple women, and had to flee being governor for fucking up that position through a combination of the former and a host of other screw ups (all things he himself brought attention to on the debate stage), the choice is pretty obvious.

>>1454761
The optics of trump tearing down the white house to build a child sex trafficking base in DC so he doesn't have to always be flying down to Florida to get his fix of underage girls really struck a chord with people.
Also trump going full marie antoinette where he's throwing lavish parties, while the average America is now starving under his failed economy didn't do any favors for him either.
At this point an actual muslim communist could run and he'd have a viable chance, republicans have fucked things up so badly.

>>1454759
I gotta wonder if this'll cause Republicans to cave on the shutdown. They knew they weren't convincing many but this election night was so brutally one-sided I'd say some of them have to be scared they'll get completely swept in 2026. Especially when ending the filibuster would immediately backfire on them in that case because Dems promptly retake majority and end them from having any say in anything.

>>1454769
There's only 2 ways the trump shutdown ends since republicans enjoy inflicted pain on people.
1. Democratic politicians surrender and effectively piss away the midterms because the voters would instantly give up on them.
2. Republicans end the fillibuster, which as you noted would instantly backfire on them assuming they don't rig the 2026 election and trump doesn't stage another self coup in 2028. Both of which they will absolutely attempt.
But the fact that even with the media all in trump's pocket declaring it's the democrats fault, the majority of the public still blames trump, should tell you a lot.

>>1454771
Some of them might give in due to a sense of self preservation; this shit is incredibly unpopular and it showed in this election. Being the "voice of reason" who decided to end the shutdown and extend the tax credits might help them survive reelection.

>>1454772
>Some of them might give in due to a sense of self preservation
Mike Johnson can just keep the house shut unilaterally to prevent that.

>>1454772
Their only sense of 'self preservation' for Republicans has always been to not crossing trump since they would immediately get primared and voted out for a more extreme right winger. Also given most of their seats are safe due to extreme gerrymandering and the republican supreme court is about to make voter suppression legal, they're going to hold the course. It would take a Great Depression 2.0 to maybe rattle republicans.
Though conservative economic policies are setting up for a Great Depression 2.0

the GOP hasn't won a single contested race all night. Literally the only victory they can possibly take away from tonight is that the socialist somali they were fearmongering about lost Minneapolis Mayor to the normal white dem. If they were rigging shit you'd think they'd get at least one win

I can’t wait until the Epstein Files come out and prove Trump didn’t do anything!

>>1454879
At this point, not only will no one believe that, but even if it was absolutely true Trump and the Republicans will be known as the party that tried to deny they existed and defended pedophiles to their last breath.

>Inb4 "But the dems didn't release them either under Biden!"
They didn't give sweetheart deals to Epstein's girlfriend and tried to deny the files existed at all.

>>1454829
>meanwhile, in the UK..

>>1454879
>I can’t wait until the Epstein Files come out
You'll have to because Republicans have been near unanimously blocking their release for months and will continue to do so for the foreseeable future.

For argument's sake, Trump isn't the pedo they are protecting, they are still protecting pedo(s). Fuck the whole party. It's rotten to the core.

>>1454895
Release is blocked by Court order. Democrats already have everything that is not subject to that Court order.

Stop falling victim to kabuki theater.

>>1454897
>Release is blocked by Court order
That literally only applies to grand jury materials. Shut the fuck up, you dumb cunt, your betters are speaking.

>>1454935
Isn't it weird that Trump's team has appeals ready to go the second a court rules against them for literally anything except Epstein related materials?

>>1454936
If they were appealing that ruling, I'd be pissed just cause of how clear fucking cut that law is. They won't get shit that way, they knew it, and even trying in the first place was a waste of time, and, more importantly, money for a publicity stunt.

>>1454943
Oh we all knew it was a publicity stunt and Trump's team weren't actually interested in getting those materials released.
It's just funny that they can't even be bothered to put in the effort to make it look convincing by filing an appeal.

>>1454943
>If they were appealing that ruling, I'd be pissed just cause of how clear fucking cut that law is. They won't get shit that way, they knew it, and even trying in the first place was a waste of time, and, more importantly, money for a publicity stunt.
You're describing the majority of this administrations court cases

>>1454951
There's actually method to the madness, Project 2025's plan is the demoralize and destroy public trust in the justice system so they just tune it out, which is why you're seeing the trump regime engaging in actual lawfare by making up charges to go after his political enemies or any deserters.

Like trying to put a person in prison for 5 years for throwing a sandwich at a Fed Snatcher and during his testimony, the Snatcher was trying to make it sound like he was under enemy fire.
>I could feel the impact on my ballistic vest as it exploded on me and smell the onions and mustard.

It's all to get you to zone out so they can then actually get away with these sorts of prosecutions, or worse, start running their own courts out of public eye.

>>1454959
>>I could feel the impact on my ballistic vest as it exploded on me and smell the onions and mustard.
Its a shame there's no recordings of the court proceedings
The defense got to grill the guy on whether or not the sandwich actually exploded, with a picture of an unexploded sandwich.
The followup questions could have have gone viral for sure.
>Have you had any problems getting or maintaining an erection after the sandwich hit you?

>At this point an actual muslim communist could run and he'd have a viable chance, republicans have fucked things up so badly.
Mamdani is an actual muslim communist. He quotes Karl Marx constantly.
Democrats keep treating important shit like Mamdani like a moral issue, when in actuality it's an economic issue. Which invariably leads to suffering because feel-good retards don't understand how breaking the economy is inherently immoral.
QRD on what's going to happen in NYC
>Mamdani commits to a rent freeze
>landlords, knowing that they won't be able to increase the price of rent over the next 4+ years, dramatically raise the cost of rent before the freeze occurs to compensate for the loss of future revenue via taxes and inflation
>people who were already suffering under the cost of living crisis get priced out, leave NYC because democrats did a socialism
>richfag NYers leave, take businesses with them, buy a plot of land in Ohio for pennies
Democrat's decision to make ethnic enclaves via gay race communism have basically destroyed NYC.

>>1454976
>Democrats keep treating important shit like Mamdani like a moral issue, when in actuality it's an economic issue. Which invariably leads to suffering because feel-good retards don't understand how breaking the economy is inherently immoral.
The economy is already broken. That's why people voted for him. The fed cut rates by 25 basis points last week despite the fact Inflation is skyrocketing in order to keep the AI ponzi scheme going. That's not the sign of a healthy economy. That's the sign that our economy is so crooked that the money used to represent economic power is now broken in service of its bad actors.

Zohrin wouldn't have won 4 or even 5 months ago. Now that the economy is in service to 5 AI companies and everyone else gets to suffer as 100% of the country's output goes into keeping their infinite money trick alive, he won in a landslide victory. The Democrats and Republicans have no one to blame but themselves since they're both in this economic ponzi scheme together.

When 'Crash 3: Once in A lifetime economic crash but the third time' happens, we'll see if public grocery stores are a good idea once they get immediately invaded for what little food remains. We're going to see bread lines before the midterms at this rate.

>Democrat's decision to make ethnic enclaves via gay race communism have basically destroyed NYC.
Oh right and this was a thing waaaay before he came along. It's true the woke politics exacerbates the problem and turns everyone wth the same interests against each other for votes, but New York being comprised entirely of ethnic enclaves enacting identitarian warfare has been a thing since the 20s.

The public grocery store thing is a really fucking stupid idea in general since you can't legally ban anyone from it. So shoplifters will treat it as a free food bank.

What it will devolve into is "Take the Palantir photograph and AI microchip in your palm to enter the ''''''''''''''public'''''''''''''''' market" which is the opposite of what everyone voted for him to do. NY Mayors literally always flip into being the worst tyrants within a few months of their tenure. It's something about taking the blackpill that New York is a Wall Street serf state and nothing can be done to fix it.

>>1454979
>The public grocery store thing is a really fucking stupid idea in general since you can't legally ban anyone from it. So shoplifters will treat it as a free food bank.
You can do this with a normal grocery store you retard. Also, you can absolutely ban someone from it for stealing, the fuck are you talking about?

>>1454984
Fuck off
Name one person whose been banned from a public supermarket in the US, faggot
hint: you can't

>>1454984
>You can do this with a normal grocery store you retard
A normal grocery store is private property
this is objectively public property.
go be a retard somewhere else

>>1454976
So you're sayng
>The banksters who have been shaking down real hard working Americans for ages are going to intentionally inflict more suffering just because people voted in a guy who promised stop them from getting robbed blind.
You're making an excellent argument that the properties of landlords who actually pull that should just have their properties seized by the city to and the rates hikes reverted.
>Mum communism! OGAH BOOGAH
People won't give two shits how you do it if you make prices affordable.

>>1454988
retards like making the argument that if you stop rich people from stealing and scamming, they'll leave and stop spending money
probably because they're clinically retarded

>>1454987
It's a city-owned grocery store you retard. You can get banned from it the same way you can get banned from the subway or a public park. Take your own advice.

>>1454990
1) the "rich" dont "steal and scam". They may do in whatever shithole country or culture you come from, but generally not in America.
2) Yes, they will leave. This is a big deal because in NY the 1% pay 40% of all taxes.

>>1455012
There hasn't been a financial crisis in history that wasn't due to the rich stealing and scamming

>>1455017
I am aware that in your motherland (India) everyone who has any money is either scamming or stealing, however, in America this is not generally the case.

Also, define "Rich". I'm in the top 10% of income earners. Am I "rich"?

> pretend I don't care after making multiple posts belittling Americans who are fed up with your victim blaming of them and elected Mandani
I dont care about the mayor of a city I dont live in. I do think its funny that a bunch of losers elected a drama-kid to run their city with the goal of implementing soi-socialism.

If you're poor, in America (where you play life on easy) you're a fucking loser. My honest advise is that you fucking kill yourself.

>>1455072
no? same guy.

>>1455073
You lost, big time and it's because you choose to victim blame voters who are fed up with your abuse so they choose to elect Mandani.

How, specifically, did I "lose"?

did you just learn the word carpetbagger? That's cute, but apparently you have no idea what it means

>>1455083
>he lost
Sir, I'm a Republican from the South. I have nothing to do with an election in New York where a Democrat beat another Democrat and a third Democrat dropped out to support the Democrat who lost.

>>1455086

>>1455085
>“Carpet-bagging” historically refers to a candidate who moves into or runs in a district where they have little established connection or local roots, often perceived as opportunistic.
>Opponents and media point out that he had not been residing full-time in New York City until recently — for example, a report asserted he had “only lived in the Big Apple full-time since September.”
I dont think you know what the word means, sonny. Or maybe you're just really low-info.

Keep doing this, you'll just make Mamdani's policies even more popular.

Me not being American means (again) that I did not "lose" when a Democrat beat another Democrat in the race to run a city that has been run by Democrats for the past decade.

Anon, my most sincere hope is that he becomes the face of the Democratic party. Americans hate loser-politique.

>>1454990
Cuomo was begging richfags to come back to NYC after the covid lockdowns. Because there's literally no reason to stick around a city full of crime, homelessness and dem corruption if you can just.. move. But if you're already out of the state, and businesses can't stay open because you can't hire anybody, then why the fuck would you keep a business in NYC?
The berlin wall was unironically constructed because socialists kept fucking shit up and germans were fleeing abject poverty.

>>1454988

Certainly beats trump's fascism where his gestapo are disappearing American citizens and ignoring the rule of law.

>>1455138
>>Helping the poor is fascism.
No retard, communism gives rise to the emergence of fascism.
Every single time a state socialist rises to power and begins collectivizing private assets, usually by force, fascists pop up and start purging the communists.
This is why fascism is such a bogeyman on the Left. Most people couldn't tell you what fascism is from a policy standpoint. All democrats know is that fascists have the highest success rate of killing communists. They can't stop kvetching about them because they are scared of them.

>>1455153
Do they lose you after the bunker scene

>>1455153
What?

>>1455155
>what is history
Pinochet, Hitler etc etc all rose to power this same way.

>>1455167
Hitler wasn't preceded by communists. The only real role communists had in his rise to power is they split the vote under the belief that if the Nazis won there'd be a backlash against them which would benefit them and an unwillingness to help the parties to their right hold power. And even then, the political force behind the rise of the Nazis was all the right wing.

Pinochet was installed by the capitalistic US in a coup against socialists. Not really seeing how communists cause that. The lesson there is just fucking shoot the fascists if they try to get power.

Muslims are disgusting, NYC is cooked and America proves once again that it is the shithole of the entire world.
