Political truths that are worth sharing but aren’t funny

It’s not just Jan 6. Fox News is always curating a media environment that shields it’s viewers from learning what’s actually happening.

While simultaneously convincing its viewers that what they do show is stuff that the MSM doesn’t want them to hear.

It might not be clear, but given his position on everything, when he says “correct” he means “the one the person wants you to use”.

I saw this list on Reddit. Give CaptainNoBoat (u/CaptainNoBoat) - Reddit the credit for putting this together.

I posted a version of this years ago, but conservatives, FFS:

The only thing I can think of after this is: Trump is not worth this shit

  • Southerners: Trump is a NY, coastal elite trust fund baby. Remember - the people you dislike? He is pretty good at mocking Southern accents and wouldn’t be caught dead in the presence of 99% of you.
  • Alpha males: He tweeted more than an angsty 12-year-old, once two hundred times in one day. He can’t fire anyone face-to-face. He is incredibly thin-skinned - he can’t handle any criticism. He’s always a victim, whining incessantly every waking moment of his life. He can’t walk down a ramp or drink a bottle of water, has never worked a hard day in his life, is afraid of germs, and thinks “exercise depletes your life battery.” I bet Greta Thunberg could beat him in a fist fight.
  • 2A supporters: Does Trump give one. single. shit. about guns? Is there any evidence of him caring about guns or gun rights that wasn’t in a political context? He threatened to take away guns without due process.. He kept flip-flopping on stances and seems confused, probably because he can’t relate to his supporters at all on the issue.
  • The ultra-rich - When you take away the fact that he’s catering to the rich with tax cuts and deregulation, you’re reminded that the rich in NY hated Trump before he ran for office. He did not have a good reputation among the elite whatsoever before politics. He’s cheated his whole life to get where he’s at. He inherited $400 million in fraudulent money from his family. And even lost more money than any American for a decade. He’s bankrupted countless businesses and his entire career is built on shitty branding with his name.
  • Military: 5-time draft dodger. Shit on a Gold Star Family. Ridiculed veterans with PTSD. On a sitting Senator who was a decorated war hero and spent 6 years in a POW camp: “I like people who don’t get caught.” Avoids war memorials because it’s raining. Has incessantly requested extravagant war parades, with seemingly no other goal but to boost his image. Shamed the National Security Council on live television. Provoked the resignation of Mattis, who has now called Trump a “threat to the Constitution.” Calls dead soldiers “suckers” and “losers.”
  • Christians: Trump IS the seven deadly sins. Seriously - read them again. The dude can’t name a single bible verse. He doesn’t go to church and just lazily repeats empty platitudes about God like a used-car salesman. Can anyone seriously say with a straight face that they would be surprised if Donald Trump paid for an abortion? I wouldn’t bat an eye.
  • Women: “Women, you have to treat them like shit.” “Grab 'em by the pussy.” “When you’re famous, they let you do anything.” He is a vicious sexual predator. 26 sexual assault claims. Many with ample corroborating evidence. He cheated on all of his wives, including his third wife with a porn star while she was raising their newborn son.
  • Dog-lovers/pet-lovers: Read through this list until you get to Trump for a good chuckle.
  • Qanon pedo conspiracy idiots: Trump bragged about barging into teenage locker rooms as they are undressing, was close friends with Epstein and Ghislaine and thinks highly of them, and is accused of raping a 13-year old.
  • “Patriots”: This guy bragged about himself on 9/11 and the Saudis are basically his homies.
  • “Build the Wall!”: Friendly reminder of the timeline here: Mexico was going to pay for the wall, then taxpayers were going to pay for the wall, then the longest government shutdown in history was going to prompt taxpayers to pay for the wall, then military funds were going to be illegally diverted to pay for the wall, and then private donors were going to pay for the wall. Until finally - Bannon and others were indicted for scamming Trump supporters out of their money after which Trump pardoned Bannon. And what remains today is a sad testament to one of the worst proposals in the history of the U.S. government.
  • People who want the “swamp drained” and corruption out of politics: Trump has hired arsonists to the fire department in every aspect of government. DeVos, Mnuchin, Ross, Pruitt, Zinke, Bernhardt, Perry, Barr, etc. It’s like the all-star cast of corruption. Completely unqualified billionaire friends with huge conflicts of interest that seek to enrich themselves. He had the biggest turnover of any President by humongous margins, and then after firing them, whined about people he hired every time.
  • “Law and order party.” God, this will take a while: The man has committed at least 15 felonies. Committed two felony finance violations, committed 5 felony OOJ charges, including trying to fire the person investigating him. Twice. Committed numerous instances of witness intimidation. [Soliciting a foreign national](52 USC 30121: Contributions and donations by foreign nationals. We haven’t even seen his finances, which would not surprise me at all to include money laundering, tax/bank fraud, tax evasion. After promising to release his tax returns in 2011, 2014, 2015, 2016, and claiming they were “under audit” for 6 years, he has blocked and appealed them all the way to the Supreme Court and is likely doing so again.
  • “Law and order party. Part 2”: He defied lawful subpoenas in the NY civil case, and plead the 5th (reserved for criminal charges) over 400 times in a single day - Something he previously said was a practice only for "the mob.’ Tack on obstruction of an official proceeding, conspiracy to defraud the U.S., two instances of mishandling classified documents, potential RICO cases, sedition and more… He is the target of multiple criminal investigations at the state and federal level, now with federal judges and Trump-appointees signing off on search warrants. I won’t be surprised at all if he blocks his own search warrant from being released to the public in the next 24 hours…
  • Republicans - Ted Cruz in 2016: “Donald, you’re a sniveling coward” “Consistently disgraceful” “Nominating Donald Trump would be a train wreck” “Big government liberal”
    Lindsey Graham: “kook,” “crazy” and “unfit for office.” My favorite: “If we elect Donald Trump, we will get destroyed. And we will deserve it.”
    McCain was basically his arch-nemesis.
    The last two living Republican presidents, George Bush and George Sr., publicly opposed his presidency. Here’s a gigantic list of Republicans who opposed his presidency.
    McConnell held him responsible for Jan. 6, McCarthy called for his resignation and contemplated removal via the 25th amendment ON TAPE. Lindsey Graham said “Count me out. Enough is enough.”
  • “Whatabout ___”: Hillary, Joe, Hunter, Pelosi, Barack are all free citizens with zero legal action against them despite Trump controlling the DOJ and FBI with his own appointees for 4 years. He controlled the Senate for 4 years and House for 2 years as well to welcome any political investigations. Instead - crickets. What gives?

WHY is this reality-TV host moron your idol? How did this happen? I know he’s a scam artist, but was shitting on liberals all it took to worship a politician to the point of dying for him?

Good lord, I feel like the entire Republican party is in some fever dream they cannot, and will not, ever snap out of.

And America CANNOT move forward until this chunk of the country does and stops threatening civil war about this useless individual. It’s insane.
