    Oh I’ll flip off the doorman to heaven and walk into hell with my head held high. Fuck the Tyrant god.

    Lee Harvey Oswald was pretty much American’s most hated man when they found out he shot Kennedy. I’m absolutely not saying anyone should try to shoot Trump, but I guess if someone were to do it, they would likely gain Mangione-type fame.

      Unfortunately his cult will call him a martyr. The best thing that could happen is for him to have a stroke or something. I mean the conspiracy nuts will still be themselves, but largely his movement will eat itself, at least in the short term. That’s usually how cults work. It’s very rare for them to outlive their founding jackass. I saw a dissertation once on how their replacement needs to be a charismatic organizer to reform it into a lasting movement, which is very rare.

      Politically, JD Vance will be basically a puppet for the Republican party; he already lacks his own personality, ethics of any kind, and any kind of significant characteristics other than “opportunistic sociopath.”

      He can get in as long as he can provide a single quote from the Bible. I’m reasonably confident that will prove to be enough of a barrier to entry.

    For most of us, we’ve had to live our entire lives watching wealthy assholes like Trump do anything they want, while we work shitty jobs, barely get by, and are held to a completely different legal and moral standard.

    We’re already in hell.

        People always say that about everything that changes. Not saying they’re wrong, but… they might be. I’ll take “might be worse” over “is definitely a cunt.”

          The MAGAt moron brigade gets hard thinking about drumpf’s sweaty mushroom, they don’t feel the same toward Vance. They’ll fall apart with out him.

          Which is so weird! Like, you think an ugly saggy fat incontinent old fuck is MANLY and 🤮 sexy??? You’d do anything that thing says, including wearing “daddy” tee shirts??? Wtf???

            That mattered back when there were elections that had to have at least a semblance of being fair. They have the power now and don’t have an issue using fear instead of love to keep it. Trump only needs to live long enough to solidify that power. I’m sure the US is past that point and the people determining policy would love to see Trump martyred.

            I’ve always got the impression that Vance is just a useful idiot. He needs someone to be the cult leader because he would never cut it.

            It makes more sense when you realize they’re all deeply closeted homosexuals. And also mentally handicapped.

    I don’t think there’s any version of heaven from any major religion where Trump would qualify. I don’t even think he’d qualify for the Ferengi version of heaven.

      My heart fluttered for a second, then I realized I’d have heard honking and probably gun fire if he’d died.

    You don’t need to choose between the two. You can just “be”. Don’t let them limit your life with their ideologies.
