      Plenty of these clowns wanted a DeSantis or a Cruz and are more than happy to proclaim, “I only voted for Trump because Democrats Are Worse!”

      It’s the mirror image of the neoliberal ghoul who wanted President Pete Buttigieg or President Michael Bloomberg, but swallowed their pride and dutifully lined up for Joe Biden and Kamala Harris.

    Only one of the focus group members, a 24-year-old engineer from New York named Alvin, gave Trump a 5 out of 5, praising him for “trying to bring back manufacturing jobs” even though manufacturing growth has slowed.

    So basically, only the delusional think he’s doing a good job. I’d say this is like, “just my opinion, man” but no: That’s literally what the focus group discovered! It’s a fact.

    Until I see real protests and general strike with more than 100 people, every last one of ya (USA) is culpable for what’s happening. You can all claim to be the good one, but none of you are doing jack to remedy this situation.

    Why post an article about an article when you can just post the source?

Posts should use high-quality sources (for a rough idea, check out this list), and posts should retain the title (if one exists) from works like news articles, videos, etc. You may (but need not) edit your post if the source changes the title. (If you’re only using an excerpt from an article that’s otherwise not about LAMF, you can use the quote in the title.)
