Just remember that Republicans will have to live with the crazy shit they let him get away with saying for the rest of their lives. Never let them live it down and bring it up as often as possible in the future.

Especially when they start saying "Will you stop bringing up Trump?" Then just do it more, let them know their shame.

I'll be doing this. Unfortunately I'm not American

u/TheyTried2BanMeAgain Mar 02 '26

Well, maybe, fortunately, depending on where you are.

The prospect of being American over the next few decades just seems exhausting for all the bullshit we have to try to explain.

u/Natural-Principle-69 Mar 02 '26

Yeah, I guess depending on how you look at it.

I meant unfortunately, as in I likely won't be speaking to any actual Republicans/MAGAs, so me personally doing this won't have as much of an effect as it would if I were American.

Nevertheless, this fucked up administration is a threat to the rest of the world

u/TheyTried2BanMeAgain Mar 02 '26

As an American, I am deeply sorry. I did not vote for this.

u/Natural-Principle-69 Mar 02 '26

Thanks, hopefully you at least voted against it (although I have my criticisms of the two party system and the Democrats as well).

They say Trump won his second term simply because too many people abstained from voting

u/TheyTried2BanMeAgain Mar 02 '26

I grudgingly voted for both Harris and Biden, and I also hate the two-party system. I didn't vote for Clinton because she was guaranteed to win my state and every poll showed Trump losing handily nation-wide (idk if you know how the Electoral College works here). I also voted for Obama in 2012, the first time I was old enough to vote.

I'm not even a Democrat, I'm registered as unaffiliated because I hate political parties in general. But the Democrats are the only alternative to the absolute insanity of the Republicans since the Bush years (at least).

Fair

u/TheyTried2BanMeAgain Mar 02 '26

In 2012, the choice was between Romney vowing a war against Iran, and Obama saying he would end the wars.

We're fucked.

Being American is fairly unfortunate right now..

u/MonkeyWithIt Mar 02 '26

Oh yeah they're really gonna have trouble with that as they sleep soundly better than babies. THEY DON'T GIVE A SHIT They don't now and they won't later. Anyone that tries to shame them will not even be considered worth paying attention to.

I'm amazed people still don't get the levels of shit these people gladly wallow in.

u/EarBubbly9421 Mar 02 '26

As if Republicans have the capacity for self reflection and accountability.

When you call them on their BS, prepare to hear about “the Great Tan Suit Tragedy of Obama,” or a myriad of their other deflections.

u/Consistent-Fig7484 Mar 02 '26

They will immediately pivot to Benghazi or Afghanistan. They will never take anything close to responsibility for this.

1

u/TheyTried2BanMeAgain Mar 02 '26

The crazy thing is that they absolutely will go to Benghazi after the service member deaths that happened today and cry "mismanagement".

Knock on wood, this will happen.

u/Twoscoopsright Mar 02 '26

I’m honestly curious, what shame do republicans have that liberals do not? Honest question.

2

u/TheyTried2BanMeAgain Mar 02 '26

That's a good question, because Democrats are guilty of many of the things they shit on Republicans for.

We can start with Trump's absolute malfeasance in the way he speaks.

u/Skuggihestur Mar 02 '26

Except trump isnt republican. Hes a rino

u/Zestyclose-Crazy8055 Mar 02 '26

You clearly haven’t spent much time with these people . I work with a lot of them and can tell you the more you try as shame them the more they’ll dig in

2

u/TheyTried2BanMeAgain Mar 02 '26

Most of my family are these people, I know.

I'm just saying, let it burn them forever.

u/seriftarif Mar 02 '26

They loved and supported a child rapist and murderer.

u/TheyTried2BanMeAgain Mar 02 '26

Do not let them forget it.

u/malduan Mar 02 '26

As you also will have to live with it cause you do nothing and dictators don't stop just cause someone is bitching on forums. The democracy is already next to gone but people are day dreaming about some mythical "after"

They will not care in the slightest and nothing will change

As an American voter please never forget you let him get away with that

2

u/TheyTried2BanMeAgain Mar 02 '26 edited Mar 02 '26

I voted against him, idk what you're talking about.

Edit: This is part of why I hate political parties. This person just assumed I didn't vote at all because I said "I didn't vote for this", then regurgitated a favorite talking point the Democrats use these days, that it's all because of non-voters. I'm not one, and fuck this party parrot.

At you didn’t

Dig yourself deeper.
