just a lot of war criminals in the big tent
This is it. I still have some lib tendencies, and I was planning on moaning and groaning all the way to election day, but still voting for Biden. The DNC inviting Collin Powell to speak is the straw that breaks the camel's back. I'm done. I'm voting third party for the first time in my life.
A lot of libs love to throw that "when somebody tells you who they are, listen to them" line at a conservatives re:Trump, but look at who the fucking DNC is saying they are: Inviting the guy who lied us into a war that killed hundreds of thousands of civilians in Iraq AND tried to facilitate a cover-up of the My Lai massacre. And that's not even getting into Kaisich, or the dick-sucking tribute to John McCain, or Warren being at the fucking Native American summit, or the other things I'm sure I'm forgetting.
Fuck this stupid, tone-deaf, self-serving party. They're telling us pretty goddamn loudly who they are, and showing us that they'd much rather become the republican party of the 2000's than give a single inch to the left.
looks like it might be a lot more than hundreds of thousands of people:
"Taking ORB’s estimate of 1.033 million killed by June 2007, then applying a variation of Just Foreign Policy’s methodology from July 2007 to the present using revised figures from Iraq Body Count, we estimate that 2.4 million Iraqis have been killed since 2003 as a result of our country’s illegal invasion, with a minimum of 1.5 million and a maximum of 3.4 million."

it'll be alright comrade. we'll bring about the downfall of this nation and usher in a better way of life for people everywhere thru the disappearance of the usa.
I live in a district that has some cool candidates up for the November election, so I definitely want to make sure I give them a vote.
third party vote is more of an explicit fuck you than not voting. if you don't vote, they can just say "lol they wouldn't have voted anyway!!!"
Isn't voting third party ultimately a legitimization of the electoral system though?
Trump will be invited to speak at the 2028 convention when the dems are woefully trying to unseat President Cotton.
disappointed, shocked, disgusted, but not surprised.
edit: ok now that I've had a couple minutes to think about this, this is psychotically fucked up. Colin Powell and the whole of the Bush administration are the most prolific mass murderers and criminals in the whole of the 21st century. They should be at the fucking HAGUE for what they did. They have the blood of a MILLION FUCKING PEOPLE on their hands and the DNC are happy to have him jerk them off for 30 minutes because Orange Man Bad. FUCK THIS MAKES ME SO ANGRY FUCK THE DEMOCRATS
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/My_Lai_Massacre
Colin Powell, then a 31-year-old Army major serving as an assistant chief of staff of operations for the Americal Division, was charged with investigating the letter, which did not specifically refer to Mỹ Lai, as Glen had limited knowledge of the events there. In his report, Powell wrote, "In direct refutation of this portrayal is the fact that relations between Americal Division soldiers and the Vietnamese people are excellent." Powell's handling of the assignment was later characterized by some observers as "whitewashing" the atrocities of Mỹ Lai.
Jesus fucking christ. I totally forgot that he was tasked with trying to cover up the My Lai massacre.
Holy shit this slaps. Even fox won't say that he lied about wmds. They say he 'incorrectly argued'
A war criminal? In MY American political party convention? It's more likely than you might think.
they will gain no vote and might lose some because of this, this is democratic excellence
would you want to be president? it is a bad job and also the economy is breaking apart too much work i get it
"If I was president, I'd be elected on Friday, assassinated on Saturday, buried on Sunday"
For a long time I was baffled at understanding the existence of Sanders-to-Trump voters. But after the primary i understood perfectly, and feel those same urges growing in me every day the Dems pull bullshit like this.
It's the exasperation at their smug elitism and airs of untouchability, and wanting to just say "Fuck You" and "For hate's sake, I spit at thee". Moreover, it's extremely funny to see these pretentious dipshits get constantly owned by and lose to this absolute moron.
i heard hologram of reagan proposed on twitter but this is a good guess too
Except I have to click on them because they just say "Embedded image Embedded image". Edit: I guess that happens if you disable NSFW content.
