Are we better off than we were four years ago? Hell yes www.nytimes.com/2024/03/07/o...

Opinion | Reminder: Trump’s Last Year in Office Was a National Nightmarewww.nytimes.com And he made the nightmare much worse.

I think NYT has Multiple Personality Disorder

Their editorial board issued a scathing anti-Trump screed the other day but their headline was, "Trump’s Conquest of the Republican Party Matters to Every American" Instead of the 2nd paragraph of the editorial: "This is a tragedy for the Republican Party and for the country it purports to serve."

Opinion | Trump’s Conquest of the Republican Party Matters to Every Americanwww.nytimes.com Donald Trump has used the presidential primaries to purge his party of dissent. Republicans have lost the capacity to serve as a check on his power.

3 years, 11 months, 9 days ago www.theguardian.com/us-news/2020...

(checks notes) That was about a million deaths ago, right?

Two days away from the fourth anniversary of Tom Hanks and Rudy Goebert making non-MAGA Americans take coronavirus seriously.

In some ways yes, in some ways no. It hasn't been a particularly enjoyable four years for queer Americans, especially not for trans people.

I recall the markets weren't too crazy about his chaos.

A lot of people got very rich riding the waves of chaos though, and they'd love to drop another boulder in the pond to create more waves of opportunity.

Don’t worry More crazy is on the way 👋

Unfortunately, the paper you write for has continued to normalize Trump to the point where many of us openly mock it, such as this Trump Headline Corrector. I hope you and others there who are aware of this don't get frustrated and leave. Your voice is needed there.

Trump Headline Corrector - February-March 2024ruminato.substack.com Disgraceful media headlines help normalize a guy who cheered the January 6 insurrection, has 91 felony indictments, and was found guilty of rape and defamation in a civil court

I have no doubt Paul Krugman is better off. Covering for a pack of murderous, child-starving psychopaths pays really well.

Domestically for like labor and workforces it has been great like it's still huge that he bring out Sean Fain to the SOTU. His biggest weakness is his foreign policy that pertains to Palestine and immigrants and that depressed turnout in the long run. He'll probably still win but smaller margins.

Curious how party loyalists always leave out the context of what happened immediately after…

Are you saying drumpf released the virus?

It was so funny when Britt said "three years ago" in her response lol, it was such a tell (Of course the answer is still yes, though not by as yawning a margin)

Trump is the worst president in American history!

94% of The World wants your evil corpse leader hauled to a war crimes tribunal.

Biden turned Amerika into the 4th reich with his wrecking crew of incompetent vampiric scumbags. Supporting open Nazis in Ukraine and baby killing genocidal maniacs in Israel. It should have been obvious from the start, but this is about propaganda not facts. www.newsweek.com/nearly-90-pe...

Nearly 90 Percent of the World Isn't Following Us on Ukrainewww.newsweek.com Our familiar system of global political and economic alliances is shifting, and nothing has made this change clearer than the varied reactions to Russia's invasion of Ukraine.

You are a clownish liar and propagandist for fascists.

Seeing almost nothing anywhere regarding the genocide and famine in Gaza funded by the US and perpetrated by Israel

"we" needs to be thoroughly defined in this case because it clearly doesnt refer to me or tens of millions of other people who are definitively worse off now.

Absolutely. There's no toilet paper shortage and thousands of people aren't dying every day from COVID-19.

Another comparison, The West Wing had serious factionalism under his administration. From NDA Loyalty pledges to toxic harassment of GS employees it was a terrible place to work. So yeah I am better off without him and his family inside The White House.

My only quibble is that there were other disasters, they were just more localized

Hello sir

dumbasses I tell you
