When you ask Trump’s cult why they can still support a man so obviously unpresidential, unfit for office, corrupt, and possibly insane–they usually ask variations of the question “What has he done wrong exactly?” Insanely naive variations of the question “Why is he so bad?” reveal someone as a dyed-in-the-wool Fox News viewer or Joe…

Trump Tax Returns Takeaway: Trump “Business Genius” is Officially Dead
The question every American is asking today: “Did you pay more taxes than the President of the United States did before he took office?” Yes, I sure did…many multiples more in fact.

If “Elections Have Consequences” Why Do Republicans Keep Losing but Still Get to be in Charge?
One of the most repeated phrases of the rightwing is “elections have consequences” which they say any and every time that any non-Republican seems to point out how blatantly unfair something is.

The Only Two Reasons People Will Vote for Trump
We’ve seen the countless social media threads basically asking people to “convince them” to vote for Joe Biden over Trump. It is–without exception–fake and just an excuse for Trump’s troll army to pretend to listen and argue the merits of any argument for Biden as if you had a real chance. Trump is not fit…
Don’t Let Trump’s Base LIE About Biden’s Mental Fitness
It is hilariously hypocritical that Trump’s base makes Biden sound like a puppet. We all know Trump goofs around at Mar-a-Lago or on Twitter; is the only POTUS other than Reagan to suffer actual cognitive mental decline; and has no government knowledge, experience, or interest. There’s a reason Coronavirus has claimed 200K American lives and…
Dismantling the Only Pro-Trump Arguments
Dismantling the only two pro-Trump arguments… –“Trump is a great businessman. Biden will be bad for the economy.”…On what planet can someone say this with a straight face? The Bob Woodward interview proves that Trump knew the risks of Coronavirus and went ahead and downplayed it anyway. He is personally responsible for tanking the American economy with…
Good Arguments for Joe Biden (to Use Against Trump’s Troll Army)
I’ve seen many people say things like “What is a good reason I should vote for Joe Biden? And do NOT just say ‘because he’s not Donald Trump.’” Well, of course, the way this answer is framed, I don’t believe there’s a single reason I could give you that would persuade you. [And it’s also…
My Picks for Joe Biden’s Dream Cabinet
Well, we finally have a running mate for Biden! All hail, Queen Kamala! Alabama Liberal’s readers, podcast listeners, YouTube video watchers, social media followers, and anyone who’s even had a conversation with me in the last two years knows I am fully behind this, and would’ve loved to have seen Kamala as the nominee (and…
America’s Next Great Climate Activist
On earth day, Alabama Liberal introduces America’s next great climate activist, and also wonders why Republicans who claim to care about babies (outlawing abortion) don’t want to ensure that all kids live by ending climate crisis…
Fossil Fuels KILL More Jobs than they Create
While in an area that was economically devastated by the BP oil spill, AL explains how fossil fuels actually wreck more jobs than they create. [Note: The sound quality in one video was so bad, I had to redo it with a second take–but the first footage was too beautiful to scrap completely.]
What’s the Future of Retail?
With a recession started and an-already struggling retail sector getting hit the hardest Alabama Liberal gives his best guess as to what the future of retail looks like: celebrity stores one day turning into full celebrity malls and “experience driven” retail.
America has the world’s rightwing healthcare system
Alabama Liberal explains the origins of America’s employer-based healthcare system, why it’s a huge conflict of interest, the ridiculous resistance to price caps on pharmaceutical drugs, and lastly the hidden role that doctors play in not changing the system. Ultimately, he tells why “Republican healthcare reform” is a myth because they love the current system.
Why Joe Biden Will Succeed Where Hillary Didn’t
I saw a question online that asked “Why is Joe Biden a better candidate to run against Donald Trump than Hillary was in 2016?” My answer was so detailed, I thought “why am I wasting all these words on random people when Alabama Liberal needs fresh content?” So here was my answer…[NOT ranked in order…
