    “Hillary was actually playing 4D chess when she lost because it allowed the dems to raise so much money!”

    “What did they need the money for?”

    “To win elections, sweaty!”

    You see, if we arm the revolutionaries AND the counter revolutionaries, we can only profit! There's absolutely NO way to lose! :inconceivable:

    Mask on, fuck it, mask off

    Love that "winning" here is raising more money not actually beating the candidate.

    Edit : nvm its a parody account.

      Politics is just a means to the ends of furthering their own careers and making money for themselves and the party

    "and what do you do with the $50 in grass roots donations?"

    "spend it on campaign funding for far-right candidates, of course!"

    ...And that will allow us to raise enough to insulate ourselves from all of the horrible shit caused when we fail and our hand picked monster candidates take over...Which will allow us to fundraise even harder!

    Us losing is win-win!

    By arming far right death squads to kill 17% of the local minority population we managed to increase our voter turnout by 3% :liberalism:

    If we spend on our opponents instead of doing the things we were elected for, our supporters will be terrified that our opponents look like they'll win and give us even more of their money that they probably need for rent and food.

      Maybe that's the plan? Their masters have chosen hard fascism, how else to deal with the rapidly deteriorating conditions they created?
