My first thought was, how could you possibly even stage a more epic photo op?

But then a more epic photo op staged:

speaking in absolutes is the quickest way to prove you’re full of shit
Pretending like the unmitigated disaster that has been the last 3-ish years is the quickest way to prove that you have lost touch with reality.
Not sure where you live but if the last 3 years have been an "unmitigated disaster" then you have not lived much.

Let's not overdramatize a dramatic situation.
The early indications of how this - whatever it actually is/was - is going to be used are very, very chilling.

Life seems pretty dark right now but we have survived much tougher times as a nation. We shall outlast and overcome this hot mess as well.

pretty wild how quickly the narrative has gone from something like "but Trump is a boogeyman and a threat to democracy," to something like, "we shall outlast and overcome"

The narrative is always there like the sword of Damocles. But we either outlast it or die.

you’re the one doing the talking

interesting that it was yesterday’s events that brought you back out from under your rock

i’m actually the happiest and most financially sound i’ve ever been, despite getting laid off in December…i’d say your bitching says more about you than anything else
I’m sorry to hear that you were laid off. Hope things get better in that department. Still hope your side looses the election, though.

Gas prices- doubled.
Food prices - up 25%
Overall consumer prices - up 19%
Border - wide open, streets flooded with illegals

If that’s a good situation in your book, we probably aren’t going to agree on much of anything.

If you are a Brandon supporter, you should feel a chill, ‘cause there’s change in the air. People were pissed in 2020, but it’s at a whole other level now.

If that is true, I think it’s probably important to honestly and rationally sort out exactly what it is, in the big and small pictures, that led to this escalatory, crystallizing event.

A stolen election, imprisoning everyday Americans for protesting the stolen election, repeatedly trying to illegitimately put Trump in prison, sabotaging the economy, opening the border, spending billions overseas while people here suffer. Those are all good starting points.

The day of reckoning is imminent, and those who brought it about will have no one to blame but themselves.

Is it any surprise that the party that has only won the popular vote in one presidential election out of the last 7, is threatening violence to impose its minority, unpopular agenda, on the majority of Americans?

Answer: No, it's not. What else can they do, join the 20th century? But, that would require adaptation to a changing world, and treating people who aren't and don't look like them with respect and equality, which is just too, too much to ask. They'd rather go back to the good old days when women and negroes knew their place.

What a bunch of weak-ass, aggrieved, whiny, pussies. If they had any self-respect, they'd be ashamed. But they don't, so they aren't.

I’m not threatening. I don’t do engage in violent, mob-like behavior. I do, however, listen to average people. That is how they see things, and that is where they are emotionally.

Faux superiority and name-calling won’t get you far with that crowd. Read up on the French Revolution. You’ll get the picture.

It’s just too bad no one ever blames themselves, or those that think similarly. See: both major sides.
