It's so adorable to read articles in liberal media bemoaning Musk openly running the government.

I think they believe that presidential elections truly fundamentally transform centuries-old institutions every time someone of the other party gets in charge. That coupled with the belief that the news is absolute truth creates a perfect cocktail for chasing their own tails. The problems never went away, they didn't even appear in our lifetimes, but the media started talking about them a decade ago after not talking about them for many, many decades, and they stopped talking about it once Biden was elected before starting again now that the old guy is back in charge. So, in the brains of these libs, racism and fascism suddenly appeared with Donald and lasted four years before disappearing for the length of one presidential term and spontaneously manifested again out of the ether in current year. Because these things never existed before Donald, right?? It's hard to watch.

I won't say that Trump isn't "worse" than other presidents (though he is better than many on the grounds that they aren't allowed to own slaves anymore), but the idea that he represents a strict and total deviation from normal american politics is just so silly. Liberalism must interfere with the neural pathways responsible for object permanence.

It is different this time, the Democrats have done such a good job at being the shit candidate who accomplishes fuck all that the Republicans can be fully transparent and don't have to waste time hiding any of it. (so it's not actually different, they just changed from frosted glass to clear glass)

Why do we always make excuses for liberals and assume them to be well-meaning? How about we hold them accountable for their actions?
