[OGtruthhurts]

you better bet your tiny fragile sheep balls that dump and musk intention is only something that will only make them richer and more powerful. any other conspiracies are just that. neither givs a rats azz about wasteful govt spending but they know it gives their sheep instant hard ons and diverts from their true intent

[4thgenheel]

they don't care, lmao.

the corruption is staring them all in the face and they're just like "lie to us and rob us blind harder, daddy!"

If he has that much money, he must be smart and moral. Right?

as discussed in the other thread.

because i am rich, i am better than you. because i am better than you, i am rich.

part of their worldview.

We need this out of the box approach of a genius billionaire who doesn't give a f**k, with his tech bro assistants. a

I've worked with many incredibly wealthy folks in my career. I don't find intelligence to be one of the top attributes of those people. Some of them are intelligent and it certainly helps, but it isn't a ubiquitous quality. The top two traits I've observed are risk tolerance and work ethic. They are willing to push their chips into the middle of the table over and over and it doesn't seem to bother them one bit and they typically work excessive hours. Just an anecdotal observation.

I do find it fascinating that from a political perspective, the shameless bootlicking of billionaires is a very uniquely Republican trait. Not sure what causes it, but it's fascinating.

I'm sure there is waste, fraud, and abuse in government. I support efforts to minimize and eliminate it. That isn't what trump, musk and the doge bros are doing.

It's a revenge/airing of grievances tour. This is a Sherman burn it to the ground model. I've warned for years that Trump was not only a narcissist but also a nihilist.

I think it goes back to the discussion about hierarchy.

Something God fearing conservatives are indoctrinated to accept from birth with no tangible qualifications required.

Head scratcher. Trump/Musk have painted the libs/media into defending government inefficiencies/fraud and general guardians of the stats quos. Another 80/20 issue that they’re on the losing side.

Dems have to speak out and defend. Defend America, not America Alone

- American safety: FAA, law enforcement (FBI, CIA)
- Strength with allies, not Alone
- American Health Care: NIH, CDC
- Putin is not our friend
- Defend the US Constitution

Always found it weird when it came from Protestants. Isn’t that their whole thing? They were tired of church hierarchy? I suppose they just wanted to replace it with a more personal hierarchy.

That is correct. Religious freedom so that local leaders and politicitions did not have to agree with the Holy See. Martin Luther wanted the freedom to (a) not believe in transubstantiation and (b) pick and choose sacraments to believe in, and (c) that faith alone and not with the inclusion of acts is all that is ever needed.

A get out of jail free card - “He who saves a nation violates no law.” Which of course means that Trump has no intention of obeying the courts...

I'm not trying to begin a Catholic vs. Protestant thing, just some clarity on history. Martin Luther in a sense made the First Amendment possible. Freedom of/from Religion.

I mean..... the most intense MAGA's are often evangelicals. Hierarchy, if not basic blind obedience, is the name of the game for evangelicals and Christians in general.

Dems should start taking out ads with planes falling out of the sky and pinning it on Reps and DOGE.

Absolutely. Also, threats of terrorist attacks. More pandemics. AI taking errr jibs! Grandma losing her SS checks.

I'm confused. Is this conservative Republican a lib or a media?

That was 500 years ago and the vast majority of Protestants today would have been "faithful" Catholics during that time.

Likely Lincoln Project Republican (whom the media worships) with TDS. He’s conservative the way Nicole Wallace is conservative. Musk has shown TONS of fraud in that agency. 80/20 issue.

That's impressive. 3 sentences, all assumptions, no facts.

I mean you guys are already at levels of hysteria not seen since the country thought Russia was going to nuke the US.

It's amazing how the same Trumpers who constantly deride the media are the same ones spewing the most misinformation.
