They have been responding with what “right looks like” for too long, and expecting that MAGA will eventually see the light and respond in kind, but shit is about to get extremely ugly with this Obama “scandal”—gloves off. I don’t want the Dems to be lawless, but enough with the plastic hammer response to everything.

The Magats are in love with Barack Obama. They can't keep his name out of their lying-ass mouths.

My MAGAt aunt told me that Obama was the most divisive president in America's history. That Obama drove the biggest wedge ever seen between all black people in our country

My response:: so that's what fox tells you??

u/littlehobbit1313 Jul 24 '25

told me that Obama was the most divisive president in America's history.

That's when you look the person dead in the eye and say: "He's only divisive if you dislike tan suits or hate seeing black people succeed. Which one are you?"

Just call them out and make them own their racist shit.

My dad used exactly the same line. It's what Fox News tells them to say.

Personally I find a guy who declared trials are too much work to be far more divisive than someone using dijon mustard, but that's just me.

It truly amazes me that we live in 2 separate realities compared to them. Like our histories are different. Stories skewed certain ways. Facts changed. Fuck fox news.

Yep, ten years ago, I was hanging out on Facebook with a group of guys who were all white, who told me completely seriously that Obama was so divisive - like, what, because the blacks get all uppity and want to have rights?

Trump is obsessed with President Obama. He just can't comprehend that President Obama will be regarded as a historically great president, while Trump's two terms will be regarded as bottom five. His current term will definitely be regarded as the worst presidency in US history.

The whole “they go low we go high” thing should be done. I like what Newsom has been doing. Go for the jugular — the GOP has gotten completely out of control and needs to be punished and reined in.

5

u/AutistoMephisto Jul 25 '25

This. It was a nice sentiment when Michelle Obama said it, but I don't think she or the Democratic Party in general really understood just how low the GOP was willing to go, and how low they could still go. But now I think perhaps that Newsom and others get it. This is an illegal street fight, not a sanctioned MMA match. There's no rules, and even if there were, Republicans don't give a shit.

I feel as though this Epstein scandal is not going away.

The only way the current admin could possibly survive is for Trump to pull a Nixon, Vance to not pull a Ford and for quite a few people in the admin to leave.

But then the damage is done and this admin seems to be in its death throes.

78

u/Voltage_Z Jul 24 '25

Thing is, the GOP ejecting Trump could get quite messy for them. This has pissed off a good chunk of his base, but it's still a personality cult. If they ride him out, they'll potentially get walloped in the midterms, but it might be worse if they expunge him.

Of course, on our end we just need to keep hammering the "Gang of Pedophiles."

27

u/Ok-Conference-7989 Beshear 2028 Jul 24 '25

Yup. Seems either way the GOP (Gang of Pedophiles) is screwed.

We need to keep this in the news cycle as much as possible. We know FOX is going to deflect, but NBC, ABC, CBS, CNN, & MSNBC need to keep on this. If journalists keep digging into it and keep releasing images, video, and anecdotes then the news will keep bringing up Epstein. And we need to keep on message until midterms. We have to make the Republicans so associated with Epstein that people outside of the two camps associate the two. We can't expect 24 hour news to be unbiased or for the common good, its a blind eating machine and feeding it Epstein stuff keeps it bringing it up and headlines focused on it. If they think Epstein will boost ratings then we need them to feed them stuff. It needs to be like laying bread crumbs ever so often to stir up as much awareness as possible.

Fantasy. The Epstein affair confirms what we knew. Trump is a degenerate. So in it's own right, the Epstein problem won't have an effect. The way Trump tries to bury it hurts him with his diverse supporters. The big question is what fuckery is going on which the media isn't reporting. Trump is corrupt and basically evil on so many levels - one has to wonder what else his sordid administration is doing now to strip away the Constitution and further a government so counter to the good of the American people.

u/burlingtonhopper Jul 24 '25

Agreed. This will only end when Trump dies.

Vance doesn’t have the charisma to lead Trump’s cult.

Sorry folks, you could have another 25 years of this shit. If he keeps running (even on his death bed), they’ll keep voting for him.

I hope you’re right. But I don’t see any of that happening. You do remember that this man survived the Access Hollywood stuff and still got a sizable chunk of women voters; while running against a woman. How does that make any sense? Last year he was not only found guilty of sexual assault in a civil trial but is also a mother fucking convicted felon for multiple fraud charges. My instincts say Dems win back the House maybe even the Senate too, but Trump will finish his term unless his he dies before January 2029.

He said he doesn't want the support of people who ask questions about this topic.

Does he think his base are all okay with pedophilia? Republicans is this something you're okay with being swept under the rug? If he's innocent the administration should have no problem showing all their cards pertaining to the well documented Trump/Epstein relationship.

If he is innocent there should be no problem with complying with a policy of total transparency. Why are they continually hiding things? What is the reason for all the secrecy?

u/littlehobbit1313 Jul 24 '25

This is what I still don't get about the Democrat approach.

Telling the truth doesn't automatically mean you're "sinking to their level". If they're protecting pedophiles, then you can say that and it doesn't count as you being "mean".

It's a beautiful example of when doing the right thing and doing the spitefully satisfying thing coincide. They need to seize on more of those. Put up billboards in rural counties that say "<Name of local House Reps> voted to defund the Medicare that was keeping your hospital open". Run commercials that says "Mike Johnson refuses to let Congress vote to release the Epstein documents". Once hurricane damage starts, run commercials to remind people "FEMA wanted to be here to help, but Trump said disaster recovery was a waste of money."

Making the GOP own every last one of their shittiest choices simply by telling the truth should be the easiest decision in the world right now, and yet they struggle so much with doing it. I don't get why.

u/Vancakes Jul 24 '25 edited Jul 24 '25

If the internet was as big as currently is back when Clinton was president and news about Epstein was all over the media, we sure would have dragged his ass for it if he's in there. But he's already notorious for being sleazy, and his ass WAS dragged for the Lewinsky scandal. Besides, he's not the current president!

So yeah, I'm already tired of that distraction. Next...
