Yaa like Trump has ever been on or near public transit. He doesn't believe in it either
America is wild man. You’ve got a dictator doing what ever he wants and then you’ve got states suing, I don’t even know who they’re suing (Trump?), judges blocking orders and stuff.
On i'll fait comme le français!!!
LOL
So is it time for 1788 France now?
Yes
Okay... so in less than a day, any plausible deniability that Trump thinks himself the dictator of the USA has completely evaporated.
That’s been every day since well before he was elected.
There was a lot of humming and hawing about what Trump "really meant" about "dictator for a day".
He already said that's what he wanted. He said it before voting even happened. There was no reason to doubt that's what he wanted.
Great, so the Cheeto declared himself King now. I'm trying to remember what people did to resolve the problems with kings in the past...
Something in French.
Fun Fact: The Roman Republic viewed regicide as a virtue. As I understand it, "he was trying to become king" was grounds for a justifiable homicide defense.
Yeah, even when they had Emperors the idea was so ground in that they never claimed the title of Rex.
Partly because Imperator was seen as better anyways but it was absolutely a thing.
Fun East Rome Best and Worst Rome Fact: the ERE Emperor claimed the title Basilieus basically the moment Western Rome fell. Guess what it means?
Idk how they can do that. It's a state issue
Limiting interstate travel, is the argument I’m hearing. The tolls are (currently) being taken at the borders into other states, is what they’re saying.
Is there a reason conservatives dislike congestion pricing other than spite?
Gods, they're just the worst fucking people.
Same reason congestion pricing is hated everywhere until it's implemented and people start seeing the benefits, people are cheap. Coincidentally also the reason congestion pricing works so well at regulating demand for a road and improving conditions.
The stupidest part to me is that toll roads work this way and are wildly popular with conservatives. They're just angry it's a public thing and that it's for public transportation support and not to make some private company money.
They're just angry it's a public thing [...] and not to make some private company money.
This is always the case
Thing is…this is just another toll. It bills you the same as all the other tolls in the city. They just gave it a different name. That’s it. In the first days, people were bitching because they took the trains and the busses, but everyone who isn’t an asshole (those of us who don’t drive) didn’t even realize it took effect and everyone was like “woah, what’s going on? Is it a holiday? It was so quiet on my way to work. It was awesome.”
But these motherfuckers
Cars checks all the boxes to them - helps with segregation, creates demand for oil, multiple vectors for environmental destruction, weird nostalgia and culture war fodder, another subsidy for rural/suburban voters, and it's the embodiment of not giving a shit about anyone else's and being a big boy. But yeah each of the individual factors boils down to spite.
They also make people a lot angrier. Angrier people are easier to manipulate
Just to check, because I'm no longer sure:
Is this real?
Yes. Satire sites are obsolete these days.
If I had a time machine, the first thing I would tell our past selves is exactly that.
Click the link. Absurdly, it is real.
I know that there were a significant amount of people that voted republican because of the lies that were told saying he'd fix the economy. Shit like this is something only the hardcore Republicans wanted. They are always boasting about winning, but if we had an election after all this shit came out I'm almost positive Trump would lose by a landslide. We're already seeing some Republicans getting their faces eaten and are questioning their loyalty.
Basically what I'm saying is that I'm pretty sure the majority of the US does not want this. And I'm sure there are plenty within MAGA that are shitting themselves right now as they sit there afraid for their lives to go against any of this. Especially those that aren't straight white men.
Lol, none of this is a surprise or new. Leopards and face eating was planned and expected. The majority of the US voted or abstained for him. This is the outcome. This is what they implicitly wanted. If what they voted for is different to what they thought, they haven't been duped. The information was available. They have been wantonly ignorant. That's not to say we should blame voters. That's to say, hopefully people become more informed and accept that when Republicans allow the deplorable a to take over, this is what happens. When democrats try to take the high ground but don't prosecute insurrection and treason and fix the supreme court, this is what happens.
History teaches us these patterns. It is why they are trying so hard to erase and rewrite history.
Absolutely. WE ALREADY DID THIS. IT WAS REALLY FUCKING AWFUL
Aaaaaaannnd here we are again.
Anyone that didn't bury their head in the sand saw this coming, none of it was hidden, who cares what the majority wants it changes nothing
Rise up or shut up
Bold of you to assume. The ones who voted Trump either wanted all this or are dumb as fuck to not see it coming. Don't put your hopes on them.
I love how he's using a fake time magazine cover after being humiliated by the real time magazine
Who called 249 years til they get a king again?
posted on that other site that's just in it for stock market manipulation, there's a teeny tiny chance i might have written it off as a very, very bad joke.
but this was from the white house account on the x(sh)itter.
he absolutely believes that he is untouchable. this statement he posted is a challenge, a dare, for anyone and everyone to take a shot (figuratively or not) at challenging his declared ultimate authority.
We need to appropriate this image and post it every time an airplane crashes or eggs go up 0.25.
Every time they fire a critical public safety team then scramble to try to rehire them.
This needs to be our image now.
“The guillotines are in temporary storage.” - France
Bow to no one.
No gods, no masters!
Dudes about 1 law signing away from a future he doesn't want. He should tread lightly.
It's the deal he's really working on the return of the guillotine industry and public executions? It sure seems like that's his end goal with posts like this.
I think I'm gonna do shrooms since I cannot do this bullshit anymore. Where the fuck is the world heading.. :(
