We don’t deserve him:
(Can someone with a history of violence tell me how much force it takes to knock out a tail light in that manner?)

When are we going to get the mass deportations we were promised? Is the wall done yet?

Surprisingly little. Even considering a typical Antifa member’s leg strength, at least a few of them would be able to take out a taillight with a solid kick.
It is George Floyd all over again, but this time a WHOLE lot of people are wise to the brazen bullshit at this point.
You won’t see this footage of Presti being a total asshole being broadcast widely for the same reason we didn’t see bodycam footage of George Floyd’s police encounter broadcast widely.
President Trump is talking directly to the American people in a way that no president of my lifetime ever has. Of course this will upset a lot of people who aren’t used to this.

Not much at all. They’re designed to pop in and pop out. You just slide them up, push back, and give a little bonk to lock them in place.

One of the many reasons I go back to my position of “democracy is stupid”.
A homeless fentanyl junkie has the same voting power as me - a working, land-owning, head of household with 2 dependents.
Democracy is utter dogshit.

It is. I’m not anti democracy though, since I don’t see any other pragmatic solutions that would yield good results in reality. We can fantasize about well functioning and just oligarchy or dictatorship, but we don’t really have empirical evidence that support these forms of government.
I like how Churchill did put it:
‘Many forms of Government have been tried, and will be tried in this world of sin and woe. No one pretends that democracy is perfect or all-wise. Indeed it has been said that democracy is the worst form of Government except for all those other forms that have been tried from time to time.…’
But I see the problem. Plato disliked democracy and called it an ochlocracy (mob rule), where masses of ignorant voters are tempted by sweet talkers. It is kinda true.

That’s also true to a degree, but I’m talking more about the ceiling of modern leftist thought. There are very few truly brilliant minds leading the movement. The really smart people tend to go get productive jobs and run businesses. DataRepublican is a good example of this. She’s what it looks like when a 1 percent mind stops focusing on their normal work and turns their attention to politics. Musk would be another example.
Who is the brightest mind of the left today? Probably academics and lawyers, but Heather Cox Richardson comes to mind as a popular name. Her writing targets the people smart enough to follow along, but not smart enough to see through her bs because she does a good job of pseudo citations and actually does know a lot about American history.
You can learn a lot of 19th century American history from her, but you won’t get a clear perspective at all about current events, which is how she actually earns her money nowadays.
Modern leftism basically functions as a more sophisticated Nigerian prince email scam. The emails are designed to weed out people too smart to fall for the scam. Modern leftist thought seems to directly target the midwits smart enough to follow the crazy mental gymnastics that prop it up, but not smart enough to realize it is an actual scam operation backed by total bullshit.
This is partly what produced the weird phenomenon of mechanics and plumbers being right about rejecting woke leftism while people with advanced degrees were particularly susceptible to it.
It also bears mentioning that Trump was reelected to a second non consecutive term in the face of an unprecedented media campaign against him where the public was told that all of the “educated” people favored Commiela Harris and Tim Walz, the retarded Maoist fraudster.
Walz is now bowing out of politics altogether and Harris is probably working on her first glass of wine right now at 7 am EST.
Trump, meanwhile, is actually transforming American politics and redefining what an American president can be, still in the face of a truly hostile media campaign that no president since Lincoln has had to contend with.
Woke leftism is an actual cult. Probably the most successful scam in history, too. The amount of money they extracted is truly staggering.

Here’s another bright mind explaining politics after a long and successful career outside of politics.
Don Lemmon might enjoy jail life.
At least one felony charge. Was indicted by a grand jury in Minnesota.
I’m laying odds that he tries making lemonade by starting a GoFundMe for legal costs.
Guarantee he has kool-aid on his cheeks already.
You need to deconstruct this evil white supremacy lifestyle immediately! How dare you! Your nuclear family, wealth accumulation, and being a productive tax-paying member of society is causing immense pain to the real victims of this country: illegals and minorities (or anyone who is not an evil “white”). lolz

You sound like you need to hire Blackgirlinmaine to explain why you’re a bad person.
I’d give her a day or two before reaching out. She’s really upset right now that Don Lemmon can’t go harass people at church and call it journalism.

When the country was founded the only federal representatives the people voted for was the house. There’s a reason. It’s funny how we revere the founders and the system they created, but we haven’t been living by the rules they set up for over 100 years.

The 17th Amendment is an interesting study. You can see that not all 48 states ratified the amendment. Only 41 states ratified it to this date. Alaska and Hawaii did so by accepting the Constitution to become states (making 43 states)
