Are people already regretting their choice?

I think we’re about to discover that Trumpsuckers have a surprising level of pain tolerance when it’s inflicted by their own chosen leaders. Especially when those leaders demonstrate their surpassing skill at blaming Democrats for it.

I wish that the coming pain would be sufficient to arouse ‘Murkinz from their cult stupor. But human nature is such that rather than seek relief, they will lash out at those who are pointed out as the cause of that pain - pointed out by the cult leader who is actually causing it.

If you've been on board for Trump for any length of time, you're probably watching Fox or One America, or tuning in to some god-awful podcast that I've never heard of. It's possible to walk and talk like a "normal" person, and to have an entirely reality-free assessment of the country. Just look at the batshit crazy stuff Trump says on the rally stage -- do you hear any "Huh??"s from the faithful? Those li'l monkeys who are on the bleachers behind him are grinning like first graders getting cake at a party. They're having the time of their lives, and there's no need to do any independent thinking to get in that line.

They're having the time of their lives

Why should they give up that feeling?
Seriously.

Gee, I dunno. Speech and reproductive rights for the rest of us? Support for Ukraine? A guy with the nuke codes who doesn't have the temperament of a cranky 3-year-old who didn't get his nap?? Let them get that special feelin' out of a can of Bud at a tailgate party.

With the election a done deal, looking over the documentation of Trump's "plans" is an unfortunate neccessity right now. Certainly my colleagues and I in higher ed have been pouring through his nonsense, trying to deduce how much and whether his new policies will affect the coming academic year....

Pouring what? Your tears? Erasing fluid? The contents of a witches' cauldron? If I still lived in any of the Fifty States I might be tempted to pour whiskey down my throat, or something stronger!

Verb
pore

From Middle English poren, pouren, puren (“to gaze intently, look closely”), from Old English *purian, suggested by Old English spyrian (“to investigate, examine”). Akin to Middle Dutch poren (“to pore, look”), Dutch porren (“to poke, prod, stir, encourage, endeavour, attempt”), Low German purren (“to poke, stir”), Danish purre (“to poke, stir, rouse”), dialectal Swedish pora, pura, påra (“to work slowly and gradually, work deliberately”), Old English spor (“track, trace, vestige”). Compare also Middle English puren, piren (“to look, peer”). See peer.

My apologies.

That's higher ed for ya. Proving Trump should shut it all down!

Nah, just standard issue dyslexia and not enough time to edit posts carefully. Your average Poli forum post is a paragon of brilliant prose -poetic, at times- carefully hidden within a veritable see of type Os, homophobes, and mallard propisms.

What the duck?

My grandpa used to say "What the fuss and feathers?"

Nope.

Support for Ukraine?

Kidding?

A guy with the nuke codes who doesn't have the temperament of a cranky 3-year-old who didn't get his nap??

MAGA! We’ll show them who has the Biggus Dickus!
Just keep that feelin’, oh that lovin’ feeling!

So they admit that they, too, use the Palestinians as political tools instead of caring about their lives.
