applegrove's JournalThe people who have very little and got out of the doldrums
by merging with Trump through the tv screen will be hard to dislodge unless they have hope. It is easier for them to "win" with Trump and his bullshit than to let go and go back to the life Republicans have not built for them for 50 years, alone.
South Africa disinvited to the G7 in France because
of Trump. The South African Ambassador to the US at the start of 2025, was the only foreigner I saw stand up for Canada after Trumps threat to annex it. He was soon sent home. South Africans know the dark underbelly of America because of the US dragging its feet on getting rid of Apartheid.
"We are told that the Americans threatened to boycott the G7 if South Africa was invited," said Vincent Magwenya.

Now Trump has been anointed by God.
Trump re-truthed this. This is exactly the kind of personality cult that should alarm everyone. A sitting president being framed as a divinely appointed savior and "on a mission from God" is not normal politics.

Applegrove: so in otherwords the all knowing God wants Trump to be at war with Iran and have ICE kill Americans and undocumented people, hide powerful men in redacted pedophile files, self deal money to him and his swamp, and bankrupt the nation all the while hiring unqualified people everywhere in Government, and people should not judge (or have the thought it means they were lied to). Lack of affordable and decent healthcare is all part of God's plan.
It was their go to issue during the campaign. It is
meant to remind people why they voted for Trump in the first place, you know - the good old days before the MAGA base started seeing through all the lies of Trump.
Because MAGAs are more conspiracy theory inclined, and filled
with charlatans, and an infinite number of conspiracies can be created on the right (we democrats are limited by reality and the truth in our narratives), is the right going to break apart?

Nick Fuentes calling for Trump’s impeachment over Iran wasn’t on anyone’s bingo card—but here we are. I explain why this moment exposes a massive fracture inside MAGA.

If Republican Senators nuke the fillibuster, Democrats can run on Medicare for

House GOP 'Sharia Free America' Caucus Is Surging
House GOP ‘Sharia Free America’ Caucus Is Surging

NOTUS: “Republicans in Congress are engaging in increasingly extreme anti-Muslim rhetoric, with little pushback from their own leadership. If anything, more lawmakers are seeking to join the chorus.”
“But some in the party are beginning to wonder, is a renewed crusade against “Sharia law” actually what Republican voters are demanding?”

Applegrove: I guess scapegoating undocumented latinos and latinos in general didn't work for them what with Hispanics turning away from MAGA. I guess they are also secure that they can astroturf/gin up anti- Israel propaganda against moderate Democrats to keep Muslim people home on election day (that if Israeli actions and propaganda doesn't alienate more people faster). Must be what is going on.
That is just how the rich GOP leaders have boxed
in the base by taking from them and their self interest over 45 years all the while blaming 'others'. They wanted people to vote populist anger and on emotions (disgust where trans people are concerned), and not on their best self interest rationally, so they would vote Republican.
Being an adult, male or female means being responsible for those
in your life. I did not mean that they own the people they are responsible to. Just that they owe others care and understanding be it a family member, a co-worker, civil society. It is the opposite of nihilism which is where an incel type, or oligarch, or Proud Boy member, feels no responsibility to others or society.
Well more women vote Democratic. So yeah anything that keeps
millions of women from the polls is bad. But it is bad in its own right not just because many are would be Democratic votes. The Democrats haven't pushed for draconian election laws that, say, make it hard for uneducated white people in rural areas, otherwise known as uneducated rural people, from getting to the polls unless they get a ride in a car that they own. That would be millions of Americans. So no, Democrats would never do that. They are not the same as Republicans.
