Bill Maher says he's open to voting for JD Vance in 2028.
Over the last 15 years I've watched so many "heterodox, pro-freedom" voices on the right drop the mask the moment it actually mattered.
Not surprised Maher's next.
The far left can be bad. But after the most corrupt presidency of our lifetime, the most anti-free-speech administration, the most pro-war candidate in a generation, masked thugs killing Americans in the streets, and DHS promising to jail election officials, "I'd vote MAGA because DSA activists are crazy" is a deranged take.
Trump is President. Vance is his Vice President, is far more radical, and wants to go further than Trump ever did.
At best, DSA is a minority voice in the party and isn't actively trying to end elections.
I'm sure everyone has figured this out by now but here's the play. The American people woke up to Israel's outsized influence so we will now be flooded with stories like Cuba buying influencers, China stealing the election, Qatar having congressional plants.
Anything but Israel.
@LeadingReport I thought republicans hated bloated federal agencies? ICE is a massive, overfunded post-9/11 government police force, but "small government" conservatives will lick its boots just because Trump and Israel say so.
@PrettiGoodLife@TheKJofTikTok@harryjsisson "basic geopolitics", also known as abandoning "America First" to become Bush 2.0 the second your cult leader tells you to. You guys spent eight years crying about neocons and the military-industrial complex, and now you're literally begging to send American kids to die...
@ConceptualJames I agree. Thatโs exactly why we need to rise up against Trump and his authoritarian fascist and genocidalwarmongering regime you constantly make excuses for. You can't cheerlead for big government, endless foreign wars and executive overreach, then pretend you care about liberty๐คฎ
