It is because all you had was those weird black and orange taffies. No-one can eat those.

Are these people verified in any way?

Vance is the creepy kind of weird that wants to spy on women and track their periods.

Oh my gosh! This sounds like it could go badly for his campaign in so many ways.

In no place does Trump specify which ideas he disagrees with in Project 2025. He just doesn’t want to be associated with it. He is not really disavowing the ideas though, AFAIK. And at least for the anti-choice people, Trump has done much that is in line with Project 2025. And he mirrors many of their ideas on immigration.

In no place does Trump ever specify which ideas he disagrees with. He just doesn’t want to be associated with it. He is not really disavowing the ideas, AFAICT. It kind of makes me mad that it is being reported that he is distancing himself from P2025. Because… not really.

Maybe I agree with some of this comment. But that “honey” at the beginning comes off as pretty patronizing. At least, to me.

I wish more Americans would look in the mirror that is Donald Trump and be ashamed of who we are, because we can’t begin to do anything without recognizing what monstrous values we have.

You are saying something I haven’t heard in a lot of discourse. Kudos and my upvote.

Federal minimum wage in 2009: 7.25. Federal minimum wage in 2023: 7.25. Cry me a fuckin river.

This is terrible reporting. Could the Guardian have shown the screenshot? Could they have asked what the context was? I don’t understand why this all is behind a mostly opaque screen. Why we are being told something that obfuscates what was said rather than giving us the chance to judge for ourselves.

Why wouldn’t the article name the Republicans that signed the letter? Seems like poor journalism?

Is there a good article anywhere that directly draws the line between cases he has seen and perks he has been given? I know that he should have to declare all of the trips, etc, and that that is a big problem. But I am interested in how he has directly damaged democracy in more obvious quid pro quo. I am especially interested in having an answer to anyone that tries to minimize what he has done.

“They indicted 7 people for Terrorism last year, in part because they encrypted their disks, used tail as their OS and signal for communication.” would work maybe.

I can’t wait to watch it, you’re not going to let these people take you down are you Donnie? I say, let them know how you really feel and make sure to let them know what kind of bad job the prosecutors and judges are doing.

This strikes me as a very apt and underrated comment. Not that it is going to stop us. Or me.
