watching CHRISTMAS IN THE SPOTLIGHT on lifetime right now, and the Taylor swift inspired character and the “dumb jock” character just had a fight and he’s all “we’re from two different worlds” and it’s amazing because … you’re two extremely famous rich people, it’s the same world, doofus.

Trump was ok with Mamdani calling him a fascist while next to him in the Oval Office not because trump is a good sport ever but because he believes everyone else is as empty and cynical as he is, and that Mamdani just says those things for the base and couldn’t possibly mean it even tho Zohran does

“The president is doing this to lawmakers on Capitol Hill, which he already left stained with blood at the end of his first term in office, because he wanted to steal an election he had so clearly lost. Now, though, Trump…
How We Grew Numb to Trump’s Calls for the Slaughter of Anyone He Wants

"In a sane and healthy democracy, a president behaving in this way – as he has many times over the past decade – would quite possibly trigger impeachment proceedings," writes @swin24.bsky.social.

Asawin writes (in part): The fact that the he can proudly, repeatedly endorse the slaughter of 6 duly elected American politicians this week & have it register in our national consciousness & media not as a presidency-ending scandal but as just another Thursday, is a profound indictment of us all.

AOC on MTG retiring: "She's carefully timing her departure just 1-2 days after her pension kicks in and after making millions of dollars insider trading stocks for weapons manufacturers and others while in office."

the line from The Thick Of It when the conservative politician looks at internet comments about him and he reads to aides the words “adulterous Nazi”

Notice Mamdani charmed Trump on live TV without backing down on any stances. He didn't water himself down, he didn't even take back calling Trump a fascist. Moderates would say butter him up, or try to appear more right-wing. Voters can see through that—and evidently so does he!
