TDS

[Hound of Heaven]

Which part of the Constitution do you feel Trump’s opponents should compromise on, HoH? Due process? Freedom of the press? Article One? Which part of the Constitution are you ready to give up?

Do you even understand what's going on, or are you just playing hide and seek with reality?

No matter how you slice it, MAGA won the presidency, the house, the senate, and the Supreme Court with a message that spreads sunshine and rainbows to all Republicans, a good chunk of independents, and even a few Democrats in 2024. And at this moment, the only catchy phrase we've got as a party is FIGHT OLIGARCHY! That's not exactly the kind of pep talk that's going to get the crowd cheering in the good ol' USA!

To kick things off, starting a positive message with the word FIGHT is like beginning a comedy show with a funeral announcement! Secondly, never include a word in your slogan like "oligarchy" because let's be honest, most folks wouldn't know an oligarchy if it danced in front of them wearing a tutu!

Can you take a moment to be real and tell me you think the slogan FIGHT OLIGARCHY is going to stand a chance against MAGA as a catchy and straightforward phrase that draws voters in?

MAGA is like a cheerful balloon floating in the sky, while FIGHT OLIGARCHY is more like a grumpy cat hissing at the world. People are just fed up with all the frowny faces and want some sunshine instead! Do you really get that to snag those elections, our party needs to charm folks into casting their votes for our candidates?

I'm going to count to three, and after that you'll awakenM and come back to reality, ready?

1,2,3!!!!! KISHKUMEN! How do you feel! Have you been cured from TDS?

One thing is certain, you haven't been cured of TDS! You have an intractable case.

I love how detached you are from the real world, Hound! Thank you for affirming for us your belief in the Constitution not mattering when Republicans control the Congress and the Presidency. In your blinkered view, this means Trump can override the Constitution whenever he wants, and Congress should do nothing to curb his lawlessness.

Thank you! I appreciate the clarity you have brought here. I know you did not intend it, but your evasions tell me all I need to know. You can't answer questions, so you throw up a bunch of sand in the air. The only people you are impressing are those who are duped and suffering from actual TDS, in other words, those people who have sold their minds and souls to Trump.

I wonder when you come up for air. Obviously your taste in cock is a lot different from Stormy Daniels'. She found it rather repugnant. You can't seem to get enough.

… they keep insisting I'm asking them to take a nap instead of opposing the Trump agenda.

That’s all that you’re doing.

You’ve never offered anything other than, “Leave Trump alone!” : )

Trust me, that couldn't be more off the mark! All I've put forth is that the progressive strategy of being the opposition party in a very negative way by always trying to paint your opponent as a villain, a monster, or a member of some secret society has become so old and tiresome that the American people have grown weary of it.

Nah. MAGA loves that stuff!

No matter how you slice it, Trump and MAGA seem to be the life of the party for most Americans, while the progressive cause feels like that one friend who always brings the mood down, militant, hateful, and just a total buzzkill!

Like this MAGA woman, who can’t even go to the bathroom without doing just that?
: D



You know what’s going to bring the mood down? Rising prices and shortages brought on by a poorly-thought-out tariff policy.

It’s ‘the groceries’, right?

Just a reminder that the Trump administration kidnapped a minor U.S. citizen, who had a U.S. citizen appointed guardianship, held the child as a hostage as a pawn against the biological father, and then trafficked the child to another country seemingly as revenge, all without "any meaningful process."

As a gun-owning, freedom-loving patriot, and someone who was raised as a Christian, it seems like so-called TDS might be somewhat warranted at times.

Y'know, in case him being an adjudicated and self-professed sexual predator, with a documented history of walking in on kids getting dressed, and being endorsed by the leaders of the KKK and the American Nazi Party weren't enough.

I prefer to think of myself as someone who believes in a CTF.

Someone like Hound may as well be working directly for Vladimir Putin. For these people, any lie or illusion to rob people of their rights and freedoms will be deployed against the citizens of the United States of America. We are all the targets. Some of us, unfortunately, have already become collaborators with the enemy in our collective enslavement.

While certainly true, it's not just threads kicked off, it's countless posts within threads as well. If this board was a kitchen, TDS can be found littered all over the surface of the counter, it can be seen trying to hide behind the fridge, it is dripping under the sink, it has shattered the coffee pot, it has caused the fresh bread to become quite stale, it has turned the steak knives into weapons, it has rendered the measuring cup useless, and it has completely eliminated any opportunity for anyone to eat a meal who enjoys different flavors. It's really sad, in my opinion.


All thanks to the fear-porn that runs wild. Why does it continue here (and many other places), because far too many people are still buying it all - bathing in it all - and while being completely soaked in it, it seems there is a deep desire for much more soaking.


When you spend 99% of your time and effort on questioning and laying judgement upon other people's humanity, you have very little time and/or room to even consider your own.


While you're quite right, you used adjectives that seem to be far kinder than the ones I typically see.

Anyway - so very sad on so very many levels.

This is one of your best posts

Considering how many fantastic board contributions I have deposited here over many years, that's quite a statement.

Ceeboo! I had a blast reading it!

Trust me, I had far more fun writing it.

If you're willing to answer, I am curious about what you think (as someone who leans politically left) your side ought to do? Who do you see as a potential leader from your camp?

Thanks in advance.

Good grief.
