Just got back home from the Food Lion and they raised the hot bar from 8.99 a lb to 9.99 lb? I thought MAGA was going to get prices lowered but looks like the opposite? LOL
 
The sadist in me wants to see trump and musk and RFKjr get away with EVERYTHING in the next 4 years. Concentration camps full of brown people. Crashed economy, prices through the roof because of tariffs, dollar erased and replaced with crypto, smog filled cities and burning rivers, childhood diseases which have been mostly dormant for decades coming back, Flat earth being taught as fact in science classes, State-run media that tows the party line, next election cancelled and trump given another term by congress. The Constitution shredded and re-written. Even more gerrymandering. Schumer, Pelosi and Jack Smith all in prison. Proud boys running rampant with vigilante “Justice” owning the libs, Women walking around wearing Handmaid outfits. Soup lines, dust bowls, school shootings on the rise, but this time teachers have guns. US leaves NATO, Russia invades Europe, WW3 erupts Etc. etc. Finally blow up this shit hole of a planet.

The humanitarian in me doesn’t really want to see any of that shit. The humanitarian is having trouble beating back the sadist this week…

Post-Decision Dissonance: Definition and Examples

Post-decision dissonance refers to the psychological discomfort or inner conflict that a person may experience after deciding between multiple options. This discomfort arises from the belief that there might have been better alternatives available that

So would you say that this is more normal behavior and not suggestive of anything more?

It makes more sense if you look at it like football. So what if they talked a little trash, it’s just football. Just admit the better team won, no reason to not want to be friends over it.

Right now it seems like they are starting to realize what they’ve won. We’ll have to see if this is durable and just how far this all goes.

Yep. Owning all of those meanie-head arrogant elitist educated libs is all fun and games until you get 12% inflation, 10% mortgage rates, $4,000 household appliances, your SS and disability benefits slashed, and your wife/daughter/granddaughter bleeds out in her car in the parking lot of the fourth ER that won’t admit and treat her ongoing miscarriage because the doctors are all afraid of going to prison.

Would that even make a difference with his base, given what we've seen of his decade-long string of shenanigans? (Hint: no.)

This is the same thought I've had. I don't know what dirt he has on trump but it wouldn't make a single bit of difference. I don't care the evidence either, it'd be dismissed. He should just turn the tables on that mofo now.

It was in jest, I totally agree with you. I think Trump could take a dump on stage during a debate and he'd probably garner even more voter support than before.
 
In the future maybe we will use Google searches rather than voting ballots when deciding things.
 
Some of you were posting earlier about how "blind" policy polls of Americans show they overwhelmingly support Democratic and liberal positions until you finally attach D to them. I mentioned this yesterday in another thread but couldn't find the supporting studies. Thank you all for providing!

It also reminds how, whenever comedians or pollsters ask Americans about Obamacare, they overwhelmingly approve when it's called the ACA. Once you attach the "Obamacare" moniker to it, many immediately disapprove. Even conservatives overwhelmingly like it when they know it only as the ACA.

This all demonstrates two things: 1) Americans are incredibly ignorant; and, 2) while Democrats may or may not have won the culture war (that remains to be seen), they are at least a solid decade behind in building the media infrastructure to compete with conservatives. They're already fighting with one hand behind their back with Electoral College and the Senate naturally favoring red states; they may as well have both hands tied, lacking a competitive media/propaganda infrastructure.

I posted on IC some years ago that the Dems should roll out ads on tv, online media, etc. explaining what Dems were doing to help the average American and what Pubs were doing to hurt them. Run them throughout the years, not just election years. Keep pounding home the messages. No need to address individuals or parties pro or con until election years. The right had Fox and then all the online crazier outlets.

Why is this administration/congress against providing for clean water to drink and clean air to breath for us citizens of this great country while dismantling environmental protections to allow large corporations to pollute as they wish? (With corresponding images to fit the message). Or the reverse. Etc. [Not a marketing guy/cooywriter myself but you get the message]

Both targeted national and statewide.
