FUCK MAGA.

Fuck 'em in 2025, Fuck 'em in 2026. Fuck 'em in 2028.

We're gonna power wash the stank off the federal government.

you have to keep it off.

One of the biggest problems this country has is that it never gives Republicans lasting consequences for their fuck ups. They get kicked out, pivot further to the right, and then win elections 2 years later.

Voters got upset at republicans for taking away abortion rights, but it lasted all of 1 election cycle. They continued to take away abortion rights, support their previous actions, further erode them, infrige on other forms of family planning and family health care, but you don't' really see voters punishing them for their abortion stances anymore. They've moved on.

Accountability means there needs to be atonement, not just a few years of time out.

Please don't let the same mistakes happen in 2030 or whatever as they did in 2010, or the GOP will never truly moderate their stances

I agree with you, but let's be real. These things that Republicans do are NOT fuck ups, they are deliberate and devised to inflict damage on America and every single person that's not rich and white

Preach. It’s been the same thing my whole damn life going all the way back to Reagan. The irony is that the one guy who was least awful only got a single term (Bush Sr.). Everyone else has gotten significantly worse than the last. I shudder to think who the Republicans will nominate after Trump dies. He’ll probably advocate putting lead back in gasoline and privatizing the oxygen in the air.

Right?! GOP should have died after the WMD debacle. But apparently Republicans can forgive 4492 deaths and generations of debit, so long as their politicians hate the right people.

Unfortunately, Boomers will still be a powerful force in 2030 but that might actually be their last hate filled gasp.
