put all of your election posting here so it doesn't bother anyone else!
from @CoolerOpposide@hexbear.net:
For Agitprop purposes, I’m asking comrades to help aggregate any and all effortpost responses, critiques, or general thoughts that you have seen or written pertaining to yesterday’s U.S. election that you think have standalone value for discussion either online or IRL.
I made a post for that purpose here, and ideally it can be used not only for general discussion, but as a reference for well thought out responses in discussions about the election to save all of us some brainpower.
No shitposts please, as we’d like to highlight some comrades’ actual effort in constructing responses or analysis, but humor is 100% welcome to help make your point!
It's kinda funny that what probably motivated Trump the most to run again was to avoid prosecution/getting sent to prison. If the Democrats had just treated his criminality the way they treated the criminality of GWB, I wonder if Trump just fucks off to Florida permanently.
They could have bought him with a season of apprentice
I can't find the comment (might not have been on this account) but a few years ago, I said if the Dems were serious about not wanting him back, they should have just made a deal with him to either pardon him or give him a deferred prosecution agreement in return for fucking off. Or broken off the head of state duties from the head of government duties, and just let him go around doing state dinners and playing golf with foreign dignitaries with no actual responsibilities. I've said before Trump's ideal office would basically be the President of Ireland.
Might’ve just been vibes but it felt like a lot of people had moved past him until that fbi raid on mar a lago in like 2022 or something?
