    I wish Trump was a communist. It's a shame he's a rich, misogynist, racist, classist, real estate con artist piece of shit because having someone this willing to just call out their opponents and it actually be reported on in capitalist media so people actually see it would be so good.

    It's a shame that if he weren't a shit head chud he wouldn't get any attention and be swept under the rug. Bernie was the closest we got to a loud leftest given a voice in the west and he was just a luke warm succdem

                And you tell people ahead of time that the slavering pigs at the top can and will crash the economy as punishment for voting against them. Make it 100% known that specific people did this because you dared to vote for yourselves. Electoralism is as much a platform for radicalization as it is about actually taking liberal democracy """power"""

              What do you think they would have done to Bernie? With Corbyn they rammed the antisemitism thing into the average idiot Brit because that somehow works, British people still have an aversion to antisemitism I guess. Bernie's Jewish and Americans don't care about antisemitism.

              I guess the Democrats would have played up the nice things Bernie has said about Cuba, or they'd do the typical thing of "but he has three houses." Because those were already pretty common angles in the primary.

          What we needed was a Bernie who was willing to intisgate a 1968 style riot at the DNC convention using covid as cover, and it could have built on the George Floyd protests

          But that Bernie never existed

            And Bernie should’ve shouted that anywhere that would post it. People aren’t stupid, it was already obvious what was going on and he should’ve said it over and over again. I wanted ads from Bernie saying “Joe Biden, these deaths are on your hands”

        Folks, the bourgeois, they're no good everyone is saying it. All these workers, very handsome workers come up to me and say, Comrade Trump, there is a specter haunting Europe, and you know what, they're right. These bourgeois are very nasty people very very rude and very unfair to the workers. They are stealing our surplus value and no one is doing anything about it. The proletariat come up to me everyday and say, Comrade Trump, will you lead the revolution? And I gotta turn to them and say, Look the instruments of capitalism will be used to bring about its destruction believe me you gotta trust me on this one. The means of production, Obama never wanted to seize them. Well guess what? I'm seizing them. Landlords? They're done for folks. Everyone told me they said, Comrade Trump you won't be the vanguard of the revolution and they would laugh, the media laughed the democrats laughed, guess whose laughing now?

    What's funny to me is that this kinda proves he knows what the word sanctimonious means because he's still attacking DeSantis from this angle

    The whole appeal of Trump is that he's the troll candidate and the thing about trolling is that you can't be an effective troll if you care too much about anything

    Perfect example, years ago in a gaming forum some gamergaters were circle jerking about some chud shit but all it took were a few abortion jokes from me to melt the lot of them like snowflakes (to use their terminology)

    DeSantis is a fucking nerd who actually believes some of this shit and doesn't know how to pander to the base of slobbering freaks without going too far for the kinds of centrist libs who would prefer a non Trump candidate

    While the nickname DeSanctimonious may have been a dud compared to Pudding Finger Ron or just Rob but Trump is maintaining the same line of attack against DeSantis and directing his message at those same freaks in the base and telling them in simpler terms that DeSantis is a loser nerd who cares too much about this shit to troll anyone

      Yeah, this is the most effective attack vector Trump's got, or really anyone. It's the simplest thing. DeSantis has positioned himself on a wobbly tower of weird internet conservative grievances as his entire platform. He's the anti-woke guy and that's all he is. He thinks that's the path to victory, to be as anti-woke as possible. Trump just has to wave his hand and say "woke" isn't real or doesn't describe anything concrete and Ron's now standing on nothing.

    It always hits me weird when Trump is willing to bluntly say truths that the grifters are avoiding like the plague. At the very least it's amusing. Maybe I'll edit this comment when I can articulate my feelings better.

              Evidently. I just assumed Trump went to some throwaway school to draft dodge the war because he was rich and didn't need it, not a school like that.

                One of his professors said that Trump was the dumbest goddamn student he ever had. Dunno if that was before he announced his presidential run or not. Definitely bought into the school.

    I feel like if Trump is keyed into this and thinks it wouldn't hurt his image to say, he could implode DeSantis at the debate with it like Christie did with Rubio (or Trump did with Jeb)

      Absolutely nothing has damaged Trump's image because his pure essence is what the hogs are engaged with. They vibe with him at a level beyond mere words or policies.

      I have a coworker who still doesn't believe that Trump's the one who ordered the vaccine development program (operation warp speed), or that he's the one who signed the CARES act (the initial covid relief package). Trump has been consistently pro-vaccine and that hasn't hurt his image with chuds at all, even the ones who believe vaccines are literal demon cum with microchips that make you gay. I think the only thing, the only possible thing that could break Trump's image and dispel the hogs is if he said "I Donald J. Trump am a liberal democrat and everyone else should be too" and then registers as a democrat and does shit like stump speeches endorsing Joe Biden. That would be the only possible thing and even then half his followers would believe he's doing 4D chess infiltration tactics or whatever.

    This has to be Trump getting tired of his handlers telling him to call everything woke, right?

    Because Trump doesn't give a single shit about online culture war, he just reaches into the collective unconscious of whatever reactionary slop he thinks will hit the average dumbass American. He's online but he's not that kind of online. I guess he's also taking the sails out of DeSantis, because Meatball's only known platform is calling everything woke. If Trump says wokeness isn't even a thing, Meatball's done.

    "Woke" was actually defined in court by DeSantis' general counsel ...

    The governor's general counsel, Ryan Newman, said, in general, it means the belief there are systemic injustices in American society and the need to address them. He added that DeSantis doesn't believe there are systemic injustices in the country, reports Florida Politics.

    I wish more people would bring it up in media -- it would be pretty funny to see chuds try to define what those injustices are.

      If there aren't systemic injustices, why do politics? You can believe in systemic injustices against the wealthy or straight people or whatever. Hard to have a political project that is seeking any kind of change without believing in some sort of systemic injustices.

      It's actually fairly keen, considering it was aimed straight at meatball ron. Woke being a wishy washy term goes both ways, it allows republicans to not straight up commit to nazi rhetoric, this is why Musk likes the term so much. It gives you plausible deniability. It's smart to call it out as a weasel term, if you're positioning yourself as the "no bullshit" politician.

      Though I'm not completely dismissing the possibility that Trump just doesn't like the term.
