The madness is reaching a crescendo. Something has become crystal clear

[NRaleighLiberal]

The number one aim of today's right wing is simply this - screw the other side - even to the detriment of themselves. It is simply about "owning the libs". Period.

The other thing that is really emerging is the self loathing and envy today's right wing has for "our side" - they are hateful, racist, terrified, because ALL THEY HAVE is their hate - no creativity, sense of humor, empathy - nothing.

They are dead enders - and since they have no joy, they want to end joy for all, period - they want to take us down with them.

What a super sized, rapture - wishing clusterfuck this is.

Hillary's use of "deplorables" was so understated, it is laughable - I can't even come up with a word that works, that is strong enough.

If the trumpers weren't a totally brainwashed cult, there is no way he would be getting away with this shit.

And of course, Pooty Poot is laughing his ass off - look what his meddling has created!

1. Great assessment.

Pleased to rec this!

[vlyons]

2. "Degenereate" is a better label

than "deplorable."

[kairos12]

3. Rumsfeld's Deadenders we have met. They thrive among us.

[Chichiri]

4. When she said half of the Trump supporters are a basket of deplorables...

...she was wrong to include the words "half of."

[lagomorph777]

5. More like a basket of turds.

[raging moderate]

21. The word "deplorables" implies that they are worth weeping over.

It is from the French language. Hillary's phrase was indeed restrained understated.

[Chichiri]

23. Well I am weeping for them.

So many wasted lives.

[raging moderate]

33. Yes, they are so deluded.

And they are wasting their own lives and the lives of so many others. This is all so unnecessary.

[Leith]

6. Deatheaters

As Harry Potter fans know, they are pure blood supremacists who attack and kill those not like them for sport. They are full of hate and maniacal worship of their cruel and demented leader. There is no reasoning with them.

[Zambero]

7. Dystopian Dumbfucks

Armed, willfully ignorant, and shooting themselves in the foot daily.

[brewens]

8. Joe's joke about taking the reporter to dinner was really pretty good. I doubt that was

planned in anyway, just a humorous popoff. The kind of thing we haven't seen from Trump ever, especially as president. He's not capable of it.

[central scrutinizer]

11. Drumpf's humor

[Walleye]

9. Just call them the suckers that they are

[Captain Zero]

10. After Trump is gone. It's Time...

For us to go take down Vladimir Putin. He has fucked with the whole world enough.

[c-rational]

16. +1

[Loge23]

17. +2!

[Lonestarblue]

26. Yes. Infect their government programs to thoroughly disable them to prevent counterattack.

Just as the CIA did to Iran (probably with Israel’s help) with the Stuxnet program. Surely, the CIA has developed even more potent cyber weapons since then.

[NRaleighLiberal]

35. exactly!

[smirkymonkey]

40. +1000

[Hotler]

12. 100% correct. It's all about owning the libtards. nt

[hkp11]

13. so true

unfortunately those deplorables will do anything that they think to keep the liberals down - arming themselves, shooting peaceful protesters, spit/argue at people who want them to adhere to mask rules, - they listen to Qnon, absurd/false conspiracy theories, believe every word from the orange turd as if he's god himself - they have no empathy, cannot think for themselves, cannot form logic.

[dlk]

14. They want everyone else to be as miserable as they are

They are too lazy to do what it might take to give their lives actual meaning or true joy.

[lastlib]

28. The majority of them are not smart enough or aware enough....

...to comprehend what is going on in the world around them. So they turn everything into a "conspiracy."

I'm not excusing them, I'm criticizing them. They are in need of education and awareness, and they're not getting either in their daily lives.

[flibbitygiblets]

15. Putin is waging war against the US, not "meddling"

that term just irks me so much. Meddling is what your nosy mother-in-law does. Putting bounties on US military and engaging in cyber-warfare to sway elections is not "meddling".

Russia is waging war against the US, and Trump's providing aid and comfort to our enemy is nothing short of treason.

[NRaleighLiberal]

36. Exactly. My view is that 2016 was stolen.

[Upthevibe]

18. NRaleighLiberal....

Thank you for your post and your perfect assessment.

[Pluvious]

19. I've always thought the better word choice would have been...

Despicable.

But unfortunately for myself, I can hear or say it without
hearing it spoken as by Daffy Duck.

[I_UndergroundPanther]

22. I think of daffy

Duck saying despicable
Every time someone says despicable too.
Watched Saturday cartoons religiously growing up.Guess it had effects. Bugs bunny was the shit to me back than..
Until they came out with Thundercats,which has become my favorite cartoon of all time.

[Pluvious]

41. Nice to know I'm not alone :) n/t

[tinrobot]

20. It's not really about "owning the libs" it is about owning everything.

The "owning the libs" trope pushed by right wing leaders is simply a way to get the lower classes working for the team... and against their own self-interest.

[I_UndergroundPanther]

24. This☝️

You are absolutely correct.

They literally want to own the libs and everyone else.

[Cosmocat]

31. Its both one a MUCH larger percentage

Yes, the powers to be that drive the right wing propoganda machine want to own everything, but that is > 1% of them.

The overwhelming majority of them are addicted the hatred of the evil liberal boogyman and owning us over rides any personal self interests past indulging their lesser selves.

[Aristus]

25. They have no joy? Are you sure? Check out this incandescent crowd:

[NRaleighLiberal]

37. no words for that....sense of "style". That pure unbridled sophistication.

[GeorgeGist]

27. LOSERS

is what they are.

[llashram]

29. I can come up with a word

adj: execrable: utterly detestable; abominable; abhorrent

[eggplant]

30. crescendo? there's a whole lot more madness to come before we get to that point.

*if* we get to that point.

[CloudWatcher]

32. The word you're looking for is traitor.

They've demonstrated, over and over again, that they have no problem with undermining the Constitution to try and own the libs and stay in power.

It will take decades after Trump is dead and buried to repair the damage they've done.

[Joinfortmill]

34. Amen, my friend, amen.

[dalton99a]

38. Hillary was too kind. The trash embraced this monster:

[ScratchCat]

39. We can use "delusional" too

Because apparently, in RW bizarro world, they will be taking back the House in November. Just heard that one on the radio.
