Hey Joe maybe try to look less fucking stoked for the destruction of democracy that you fucking helped usher in? Honestly, he looks like a fucking wax model. About as useful, too.

NSFW warning please.
Posting two dickheads just like that....

An excellent moment to use your 2nd amendment rights to protect the country against tyranny and oppression.

He could, he should, he won’t.

President Vance is just waiting for his turn anyway

[–] nightwatch_admin@feddit.nl 17 points 8 months ago (1 children)

We should not underestimate Vance, but he lacks the TV personality trait that Reagan and Trump made so more popular, and Trump the cult deity that he is today. I don’t see that couch humper having the balls to go full MacBeth on his king of kings.

Trump seems to be senile already (the dancing town hall meeting comes to mind), so I think it's more the question when Vance will take over, not if he will try.

[–] frunch@lemmy.world 8 points 8 months ago

That's been my thought the whole time--this is really just a play to get Project 2025 off the ground and Vance is one of "their guys"

It's so fucking stupid but in this timeline it has to be as mind-numbingly stupid as possible. Attorney General Gaetz anyone? 🤣

Oh yes, that’s true. It’ll be utter chaos when the grim reaper comes around for Diaper Don, though.

They'll turn him into an animatronic corpse before they let him die in office

That sure would be something for the history books.

[–] LavenderDay3544@lemmy.world 4 points 8 months ago

I mean it would make more sense to take out the entire supreme court next time there's a Democrat president and senate.

Imagine he tries and fails, like the last who tried.

[–] tkk13909@sopuli.xyz -3 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Ah yes, calling for actual assassination. I was wondering what Lemmy would get up to today

[–] i_ben_fine@lemmy.one 1 points 8 months ago

What are you talking about? Oh, Nightwatch Admin just mixed up the 2nd and 3rd amendment rights.

[–] Carighan@lemmy.world 42 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago) (1 children)

Such a shame that Democrats still try to play it by the democracy book, despite Republicans having fuck all interest in it.

Should have invited him, put him in front of the camera, then kept asking annoying questions while ignoring what Trump says, talking over him. Flash a giant LIAR on a screen in the background whenever he says something, maybe.

[–] nova_ad_vitum@lemmy.ca 11 points 8 months ago

What Biden does it doesn't do is immaterial at this point. American voters have no interest in responsible democracy. Democracies grant extreme power to the people - including the power of suicide. Whether through confusion, deception, or apathy, that is exactly what American voters have chosen.
