Don't blame me, I voted for the other guy. (Politics General)

@Meanlucario
Kyle Cucklinski’s claims should always be taken with a grain of salt

Im assuming its this clip?

From what I’m seeing and hearing, Trump is wrong here. the responsibility for seperation was placed on the helicopter not air traffic control. Not to mention the difficulty in actually becoming a controller in a class B regardless of administration.

Ah thank you for the full clip!

@The Smiling Pony
I was asking about the 3 million+ votes missing video.

@YourPalContrail
Here you go (I just went to r/newsofthestupid and those were the second, third, and tenth top trending topics).

I do wanna push back on this slightly. They are most likely referring to the FAA targeting people with “severe intellectual disabilities” as they (trump and elon) have mentioned in previous twitter posts last year, not necessarily a problem with women an non-whites like you seem to frame it. The problem is that this has been on the FAA website since 2013 which begs the question why didnt trump do something about it in his first term?

@YourPalContrail
Because he didn’t think to weaponize it at the time. Grifts aren’t about what does and doesn’t work, it’s about what you can use to exploit your audience/victims as much as possible.

These Jan. 6th insurrectionists really are a basket of deplorables. First, there was a man in Indiana killed by the sheriff while resisting arrest. Then, there was a man in Houston wanted for solicitation of a minor charge back in 2016. And now a Franklin County woman is going to prison for 10 years due to a deadly DUI crash back in 2022.

Trump set a deadline of Feb 1 for his Mexico and Canada tariffs.

Joy.

@BlueYoshi
Turns out there are actually THREE known child predators who were among the Jan 6th crowd that got pardoned that have just got arrested again for CP charges

Guys, im starting to think that MAYBE the people who took part in Jan 6th aren’t as nice and innocent as Trump says.

New DOT Secretary Sean Duffy just issued this memo, in which among other things he directs staff to “give preference to
communities with marriage and birth rates higher than the national average” in policymaking and issuing grants.

I feel I must reiterate that THE only people who obsess over keeping birth rates up are more often than not the fascists.

@BlitztheDragon
Duffy?

Another Reality TV Runt…

@BlueYoshi
They’re not deplorables, they’re undesirables. Lower than the dregs of society. Misfits, fuck ups and wastes of space.

What are the stats on how many illegal immigrants are being deported under this administration vs under the Biden administration, and why are the stats on how many legal immigrants have entered the country under the previous administration versus the current one?

I want to know what they are over a single weeklong period, just to see if there’s really been any difference.

Because at this point, all I care about when it comes to the illegal immigration situation is when whether or not the ultimate job of deporting them out of the country that was one of Biden‘s responsibilities that he handled objectively inadequately is actually being fulfilled, or not.

Biden had a chance to do the job in a humane and simultaneously successful way, and he failed. Now we’re back to Trump doing it, for better or worse (quite possibly worse).

@Background Pony #A8BC
Again, you say that like it’s a real problem and the solution isn’t just to make becoming a citizen much easier.

If the Biden admin had actually done their fucking jobs to a consistently competent degree, on the issues of inflation, immigration, and crime that the great bulk of the American decided to idiotically vote for Trump on, as a result, then we likely wouldn’t be in this fucking mess, right now.

@Background Pony #A8BC
You have a source to back up that claim, because as far as I’m aware, Biden did more than Trump did in those areas. Also, demanding miracles is a fool’s errand. Progress is slow, and needs to be build up before everyone benefits from it equally. What matters is what people can do to help those during that time. Even a few bars of soap while a sewer system is being worked on can save lives.

@Background Pony #A8BC
Actually, Trump won because he literally rigged the votes, so humanity was boned either way.

@Meanlucario
Becuase it IS a real problem, and as someone on the left who has common sense and understand how the general public more positively responds to laws already in place meant to tackle such problems being enforced effectively, I am beyond tired of pretending it isn’t one.

You can hyperfixate as much as you want until you’re blue in the face on this supposed alternative of just automatically making them all citizens, but that is shown to clearly not work regardless of what influence people like Trump have had not working. The best thing to happen now is for the actual current laws to be fully enforced, which is something that if Biden had done, he would probably still be in office, and we would’ve had a better outcome.

@Wiimeiser
I have little doubt he rigged things, but you want a proper source before making such a claim with your whole chest.

@Meanlucario
According to which sources, the official stats, or what all the news media outlets from Fox News MSNBC are saying?

Why would you trust any of those, instead of the actual stats?

@Background Pony #A8BC
Official stats are a great start. And are you really going to try to act like I was going to use FOX as a source? Or are you suggesting FOX is a credible source?

@Meanlucario
“And I am beyond tired of pretending that that isn’t the reality, either, in the face of people who consistently fail to see the bigger practical picture, like you.”

Sadly, your neoconservative vision has consistently failed far too many people in this country for decades, now. If it actually succeeded, then we would be seeing the results, after 30 to 40 years of it, since the Reagan era.

@Background Pony #A8BC
“ Progress is slow, and needs to be build up before everyone benefits from it equally. What matters is what people can do to help those during that time. Even a few bars of soap while a sewer system is being worked on can save lives.”

Sorry, wrong text posted in the original. This is the intended text. ^

Oh I’ll blame the Dems and especially Brandon till the cows come home.

But Biden oversaw the best Covid recovery response in the world which saw inflation specifically return to pre-Covid numbers faster than most/any other nation in the world, Biden deported more undocumented immigrants in his 4 years than Trump did in his, and crime was on a downswing in response to the post-Covid recovery.

Again, Brandon and the Controlled Opposition party owes a large part of the blame for Trump’s return. But after a point there’re no 2 ways around the fact that voters are just retarded. They were legit asked whether they wanted a prosecutor or prosecuted for President, and they chose the felon over the cop.

@Meanlucario
That you would’ve used ANY corporate news media as a source. Don’t try to put fucking words in my mouth with me, bud.
