“Planet of the Humans” Documentary is 20% Right and 80% Wrong
On Earth Day, Alabama Liberal takes aim at a documentary that takes an obstinate glee in going against the environmental movement, sometimes using points that are flat-out wrong to do so
If Republicans Only Care About G.I.A. (Guns, Immigration, Abortion), Political Correctness, and Taxes–They’re Basically little Kids
“How can we understand a Republican mindset?” It’s not hard to figure out… Guns, immigration, abortion, political correctness, and taxes. Other than absolutely ludicrous conspiracy theories, these are the only five things I ever see Republicans talk about (they love the first one and they hate the other four). It’s tiresome, if I’m being honest….
Truths that Republicans Must Accept to Become Happy
—That they are not under attack. The country has just shifted from their values and quietly moved on without them. But being (willingly) left behind is not the same thing as being attacked. —That they (primarily white people) are not just as threatened as minorities. And also… —That they are under no real threat from minorities. —That Trump’s support…
Trump’s Base Will Turn on Him
By using the personal example of Bush’s cult evaporating, Alabama Liberal explains that Trump’s base will forget him and eventually whisper that he was never really “one of them” anyway…if only Republican leaders and the media would let them.
Why Didn’t Democrats Take Back Texas?
One of the loftiest goals for the Democratic Party has been to flip Texas blue. Or perhaps “take it back” would be more accurate since it was Democratic for over a century before W. Bush put his carpet bagging ass in the Governor’s mansion. They wanted it bad for Hillary in 2016, for Beto in…
No, Mitt Romney is Not a RINO–He’s Just Not Part of Trump’s Cult
Typical Trump dumb ass: “Mitt Romney is practically a RINO. He never votes with the Republican Party.” Check this out Compare: Mitt Romney (R-Utah) and Lamar Alexander (R-Tenn.) Compare: Mitt Romney (R-Utah) and Cory Booker (D-N.J.) Now you can go to that website and see that Mitt Romney votes with fellow Republican senators in the…
Are Trumpers a Cult?
We’ve seen Trump’s base referred to as a cult so often that it’s almost taken for granted. The profound strangeness of their actions barely even registers anymore, and someone might look a total freak (like a woman with sleeve tattoos carrying a machine gun outside a polling place who would’ve been straight-up mocked in Alabama…
Before Republicans Can Change, They Have to Accept That They Lost
“How do you change the Republican Party so that they appeal to more Americans again?” First, they would have to WANT to change, and I don’t see that aspect at all. Typical Trump dumb ass: “Trump got more votes than anybody but Biden. He’s number 1! We just have to wait for Biden to fuck…
A Big Reason Trump Should Pass Stimulus On His Way Out the Door
People have pointed out that if Trump plans to run again in 2024, he absolutely should try to get a second stimulus passed. But he should do it even if he doesn’t run again in 2024. Partly for his own legacy. Right now, he will be most fondly remembered as… The first POTUS in US…
The Election Wasn’t a Blowout but it Still Proved People Hate Trump
“Damn, how did Trump get more votes than last time? How did he do so well?” I’m not sure an incumbent President losing by the biggest margin since Herbert Hoover is really “doing well” by any objective measure, but I understand the sentiment: how did so many people vote for an impeached, incompetent, traitorous criminal…
15 Reasons Al Gore in 2000 and Trump Today are NOT the Same Thing
Every conservative right now “Well, Trump is just using all his legal options. It took Al Gore 38 days to concede. There’s no difference.” These Al Gore comparisons are dead wrong for so many reasons… 1. The vote in Florida truly was less than a 1,000 vote difference and at one point only 537 votes….
The Power Imbalance Between Rural and Urban Areas
It’s becoming a little-talked about fact that even though big cities and blue states are supposedly “socialist,” they actually control the economy: the staggering majority of American GDP comes from blue cities and blue states. Meanwhile, Republicans that supposedly hate government are in charge of rural areas in red states who’s only real contribution to…
