Trump’s base “Well, maybe Trump has ties to Russia, but he’s tougher on China!” First off, it’s amazing that so many Republican voters are perfectly fine with Trump being a Russian asset–but maybe that’s because they’ve swallowed the Steve Bannon fallacy that since Russia is majority white (supremacist) and Christian, they can be the next…

Today’s SCOTUS Doesn’t Reflect America. Why that’s a Huge Problem
Most rational people: “Today’s SCOTUS is not even remotely reflective of the United States of America, is that a problem?” Conservative white male Heritage Foundation Horde: “Not at all!” But, of course, it is… To be honest, I don’t see that many people other than fanatical conservatives who really pay attention to judge races. However,…
Senate Republicans Only Rammed Through “Handmaid’s Tale” Because They Know They’re Going to Lose
“Will ‘Handmaid’s Tale’ getting rammed through the SCOTUS be bad for Republican Senators?” …Oh yes… Conservative voters have already gotten the thing they most want—so it de-incentivizes them to vote (especially if they happen to live in one of those Georgia/Texas districts with 10 hour wait times). And especially if they know Trump is going…
“Reasons to Reelect Trump”…That are Completely False
I keep seeing the same Republican “reasons” to reelect Trump surfacing all over the internet in a way that is not only suspicious (why the same talking points over and over?) but provably false. I’ll now debunk a few of the ones I see the most… 1. “There’s a strong economy.” The economy has collapsed….
Why Republicans Should NOT Vote for Trump
As a response to Joe Biden’s staggering number of endorsements from Republicans (including some from people that worked in the Trump White House), I sometimes see questions from Republicans asking “Why are so many prominent Republicans not voting for Trump?” For Republicans, voting for Trump should be about as appealing as injecting bleach (also, Trump’s…
100 Reasons to Vote AGAINST Donald Trump
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. And my taxes have gone UP since that b*****d’s “tax cut” that went overwhelmingly to the wealthy and corporations. Because the tax laws…

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. Yet I can’t help but wonder “if elections have consequences, how do Republicans keep losing but still get to be in charge?” —In…
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…
