Remember that time when we elected a literal idiot to be president and a million Americans died because of how fucking stupid he was?

[–] Wogi@lemmy.world 27 points 1 week ago (2 children)

And then we prosecuted him for crimes, convicted him, and then sentenced him to live in government housing for the next 4 years?

Shhh, everything I said is true don't ruin it for me with facts.

Wrong kind of government housing, unfortunately 😓

[–] Anticorp@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

He won't even live there, just like last time. He'll live in his hotel and cost us tax payers a million dollars per day, that goes straight into his pocket.

Be the change you want to see in the world.

Not So Fun fact:

Bird flu has killed 50% of the humans it's infected so far, and that same idiot is going to be back in charge.

And this time, our soon to be Secretary of Health has part of his brain eaten away by a worm.

If you're speaking for the worm then I agree. I only enjoy the fattiest, juicy meat myself.

We were averaging one 9/11 every three days during Trump's pandemic. And that's just counting the deaths directly attributed to COVID, with the CDC and a shitload of states playing "don't test, don't tell" plus the delayed deaths due to cardiac injury I'm betting the death numbers were closer to 5x reported.

That's why this time the plan is to get rid of a health ministery before the next pandemic hits.

[–] seaQueue@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

Can't have high pandemic casualties if the pandemic is fake news and you've dismantled the agency responsible for coordinating testing!

[–] Anticorp@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

And yet people never even talk about it now. No memorial, no day of remembrance, no lessons learned, just right back into the arms of the seditious traitor who killed more Americans than all of our wars combined.

[–] Semi_Hemi_Demigod@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

Yeah but it's not like we could bomb the virus so what are we gonna do? We're Americans, after all, the only thing we can do is wage war. War on drugs, war on crime, war on poverty, war for independence, war to end slavery, war on Mexico, war on Spain.

I still don't know why Kamela didn't just run ads reminding people of all those who aren't here because of Trump's handling of Covid.

[–] cmbabul@lemmy.world 6 points 1 week ago (2 children)

The democrats have all been Ned Stark in Kings Landing for a decade. Taking the high road doesn’t work against when the goal of the opposition is to slit your throat

[–] HawlSera@lemm.ee 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

...Can you explain the character better for those of ous who don't Game any thrones or Sing without fire and ice, thanks.

[–] cmbabul@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

Spoilers I guess. Ned was an honorable man summoned to rule at advisor to the king in the capital. He plays the game of politics with honor and get his head cut off for it.

[–] Anticorp@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago (1 children)

"Did you really think this piece of paper would protect you?" Is a perfect example of the Republican response to the DNC.

[–] cmbabul@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago

It upsets me that in the time since I started making that analogy that show went from the hottest thing in the world to a case study in destroying an infinite money machine

[–] SocialMediaRefugee@lemmy.world 2 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

That would've been a terrible idea to remind them of that period. Voters hate the way it was handled and blame the dems for it. They were blaming Kamela for all sorts of things she had zero authority over.

[–] HawlSera@lemm.ee 0 points 1 week ago

Trump was literally voted out of office over it.

[–] LovableSidekick@lemmy.world 8 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Hey let's do it again! I'll call 10 million of my fellow Democrats and tell them not to bother showing up to vote. It'll be fun!!!
