Nah, he’ll be good! Just like Colbert.

I guess I’m unsubscribing from HBO Max as well as paramount plus….

I know Colbert has to give CBS the benefit of the doubt, but CBS IS the Trump administration.

Fuck CBS. Fuck paramount. Cancel your Paramount plus subscriptions if you haven’t already. You get get Star Trek without giving them money.

If only they didn’t run out of them.

You want more olympians, this is how you get more olympians.

There’s only so much they can actually do.

Anytime Trump talked shit about somebody, they immediately become a hero in my book.

“Against their will” sounds funny in context. I was forced to do plenty of things in the military against my will. Most dealing with PowerPoint presentations.

I’m wondering if this is all the young people that grew up watching politicians like Bernie and AOC and are finally participating.

His words are timeless.

The case was 50 years ago. Citizens united was 2010.

This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move.

Yeah, exactly. As long as you recognize this isn’t about changing anything now and it is about winning the future election.

Because once the shutdown begins, everyone on Lemmy thinks that Democrats agreeing to open the government back up without any real concessions is a crime against humanity.

Even though they achieved the only goal they could possibly achieve, which is winning the public opinion vote.

It also means if shutting the government down could result in you losing favor, then it is better to just agree to whatever BS is necessary to keep the government open.

Government shutdowns have historically never worked. All you can expect is to gain favor with the voters next cycle.

Which never works

Yep, but the system is built to keep 2 parties in power, so neither of them will change anything.

Something something states rights.

Honestly, the whole election systems is stupid and a big part of what’s wrong with this country.

Yes! Now do it! Nobody is above the law, the ones “protecting the law” most of all!
