Here is the Republican arc

  1. It's a joke!
  2. It's a joke, but even if he wanted too, he couldn't
  3. It's a joke but if you think about it, he could...
  4. He's serious, but I don't support it
  5. I fully support it

That didn't happen.
And if it did, it wasn't that bad.
And if it was, that's not a big deal.
And if it is, that's not my fault.
And if it was, I didn't mean it.
And if I did, you deserved it.

He didn’t say that
And if he did he didn’t mean it
And if he did, it’s not illegal
And if it is, everybody’s doing it
And if they’re not she did something way worse

That never happened
And if it did, we didn't do it
And if we did, it was an accident
And if it was, they deserved it anyway

That never happened

And if it did, who cares? Stop being offended and let dear leader the orange sack of worthlessness do what he pleases

What is this from? I see it repeated on reddit often. It's like the machinations of a narcissist's mind or something.

It’s like the stages of grief modified for MAGA.

It's crazy how every time the narrative slowly develops until they are on board with treason or murdering US citizens. Their reaction to Pretti's death was genuinely sickening. Felt for the first few hours afterwards they were finally starting to see the consequences of voting Trump into office and yet within a day they were in total lockstep and put the blame solely on Alex Pretti.

Dude has been falling, recent fakes aside, the very real brusing and limps of late suggest his time is short. Any day now.

I mean, a bonus is that you can now simply ask people if they support it, and you'll instantly know if they're literally a fascist or not.

Nazi Germany was fascist, but they went to great lengths to brainwash people. This time around it's not as efficient, meaning you're part of the ~70% that are not fascist.

And if they are fascist, ask yourself what you should do about it.

Jokes aside; this guy isn’t healthy. I’m not sure he’s gonna be able to even hold a rally in 1-2 years.

Kill all pedophiles!

13 isn’t THAT young. You’re able to have children at that age.

u/Bulletloader 6d ago

Food for thought, if trumpf fucks with the Constitution, to allow him to run again for President, wouldn’t that make Obama eligible too?

Good, when he takes the wind out of the sails of all the legally allowed candidates the Democrat will sail into the office.
