Donald Trump is a moth to the flame of success. He almost intrinsically respects those who are popular and have ascended to power in a way that he feels mirrors his own self perception in some way or another - no matter what his twitter diatribes say
Donald Trump on Zohran Mamdani following their meeting at the White House:
“I can tell you that some of my views have changed. […] I feel very confident that he can do a very good job. I think he is going to surprise some conservative people actually, and some very liberal people he won’t surprise them because they already like him.”
It’s so funny to see the racist and Islamophobic rhetoric that attempts to paint Muslims and majority Muslim countries as backwards, when in America homophobia is rampant and Evangelicals are attempting to infiltrate every facet of our educational and political institutions
Seeing a lot of racist pinkwashing bullshit about Muslims & homosexuality and it’s a good time to share how I was on the gay marriage beat for a decade & racist gays never believed me when I shared how US Muslims favored equal LGBT rights (52%) over Christian evangelicals (34%)!
The defenders of billionaires always say the same thing:
“They earned it.”
“They created jobs.”
“They give back.”
But you don’t earn $100 billion.
You extract it; from underpaid labor, monopolized markets, and tax loopholes.
@64thNWestern@RoennReeds@kenklippenstein You’re putting on full display your complete misunderstanding of economic inequality. We don’t fix wealth disparity by simply giving money to charity. We need to fix systemic inequities baked into the fabric of our social systems (housing, healthcare, childcare, education, etc.)
because she said everything she needed to say and unlike you THE Simone Biles has 1000 more important things to do than exchange an endless barrage of brain dead takes that no one gives a fuck about with bigots on twitter
@RussellZiske@dannythetu29356 @LukeMcNamara625 @RepNicole@GovKathyHochul Congestion pricing is literally promoting fewer people on the roads and so following your logic is fixing the air pollution problem. Your obsession with migrants is strange, please seek help.
@dannythetu29356 @LukeMcNamara625 @RepNicole@GovKathyHochul Air pollution in the S. Bronx has been an issue for years but please tell me a time you’ve ever put forth effort in your life to try and combat this issue. People like you live to be miserable and complain but never propose solutions— nothing to add but your brain dead memes
@JRFranklin15@Breaking911 Democrats have not successfully blocked any of Trump’s nominees. Now, explain to me exactly how pushing through pseudo-science believing RFK to HHS or blatantly unqualified Fox News host Hegseth to Secretary of Defense is bringing down the price of food… quickly please!!!
@ticnt_ What? There is no “buying or selling” of a baby. Someone is carrying someone else’s biological child, they are compensated and then the baby is raised by their parents. Both the mother and the surrogate are willing particpants, there is no violating the mother’s rights.
It never ceases to amaze me the number of people who feel emboldened to spew their irrelevant/hateful opinions. Surrogacy is NOT human trafficking?? No one’s forcing anyone to be or use a surrogate, most of you would never even have access to one so what are we discussing
