Ok but that's one guy. It's not like this keeps happening. It's not like this party's top funder is a hitler salute guy who shrieks about the white race on twitter every day

Trump's tone of voice reads like he's telling the funniest story he knows. And everyone in the audience is laughing. American democracy - the founding, the constitution, rule of law, checks and balances, representative government ALL OF IT - is just a joke to these people.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · yesterdayTrump: "Please right your right hand. I pledge to the greatest president in the history of the United States. That loves us so much he can't even breath. That I will go out with my family, my friends, I'll do it any way - I don't care if I'm registered or not, I'm going to try to cheat like hell..."
Just did a quick look around and I don't see very many headlines about the President of the US making people pledge allegiance to him personally while telling everyone to commit election fraud and "cheat like hell" to support his party. Seems like it should be a story?

If you saw this happening in another country, what would you call it?

“To leave no loopholes Hitler exacted from all officers and men of the armed forces an oath of allegiance—not to Germany, not to the constitution, which he had violated by not calling for the election of Hindenburg’s successor, but to himself.” -Shirer, Rise & Fall of the Thrid Reich, p. 375

The weeks after 9/11 were filled with unhinged Islamophobia and any claim that we were completely united explicitly places them on the outside of who you consider to be American
Senator Elissa Slotkin@slotkin.senate.gov · 16h agoBut that feeling of a shared bond among all Americans in the early weeks after the attack is something I’m so glad I got to experience. Because it’s the thing that I think we’re missing the most today.
Any answer other than “who gives a shit, republicans are using a dozen kids playing JV volleyball as a distraction from looting the county and covering for elite pedophiles” is cowardly horseshit

I mean, is there a need to have anyone else on when the big putrescent cheese himself keeps telling everyone he's running again?
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 2d agoit's funny that Republicans are holding a big two-night campaign convention and Donald Trump, who is not running for anything and has approval numbers around 30, is the keynote speaker *BOTH NIGHTS*. They couldn't let poor JD or some other schlub close one of them?
Anything to divert attention away from record high housing, electricity, water, gas and car prices. Please pay no attention to the highest level of credit card debt in US history. Please ignore the mass surveillance apparatus they're building in your neighborhood with Flock cameras.
Celebrating the election of neo Nazis in Germany is quite a choice.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 3d agoTrump: “Wow! The Populist Party in Germany just had a really big night. They finally got tired of the absolutely horrible Immigration rules and regulations which have hurt Germany so badly. THEY ARE ON THE RISE, and not going to take it anymore! MGGA!!! President DJT”
Would you believe me if I told you that Jennifer Sey first tried to get attention/profiteer off her antivaccine(and COVID denialism, etc) beliefs and now is one of the biggest transphobia grifters instead? Because that’s what antivaxxers are: selfish, hateful bigots

If only the media had as much interest in the world's richest person, the primary funder of the Republican Party, who spoke at Trump's Inauguration and gave a Sieg Heil, once again declaring his belief "white solidarity is the only way to survive" as they do some Twitch streamer.
David Roberts@volts.wtf · 3d agoFor a certain kind of white man, there is no fear more primal than the fear that the people they have abused will gain power and treat them the same way.
once again, this should be front-page news all over the world, the President of the USA just fabricated an entire story about himself
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 4d agoTrump on 9/11: "I just thank my people. I was building a big building in New York & I took the whole crew down there right after this happened & they had no hesitation. Everybody went down with me... we thought it was coming down on top of us... two fireman lifted me up and started running with me"

the necessary step 1 of rebuilding trust with our allies is prosecuting almost everyone in the trump administration for the countless crimes they have committed against the country and the world
Joey Politano🏳️🌈@josephpolitano.bsky.social · 6d agovery obvious why Canadians feel this way now but Americans still need to internalize how bad the PR damage of the last 2 years has been and how hard it is going to be to rebuild trust
they don’t even try to hide the fact that this is not about women’s sports this is about crushing anyone who doesn’t conform to their particular view of gender and what they actually want is to never see the wnba or its fandom ever again

What's he planning on spending this cycle? $400 million? All on Republicans, right? And they aren't going to be asked about this once
