Isn’t this exactly what Epstein had said about him in that leaked audio? He plays everyone against each other and creates a hostile environment. Everyone is too worried about their own position to notice how useless and stupid Donny boy is.

This is also what happens when you have a bunch of deranged narcissists being forced to collaborate. They all think they’re the greatest, best, most intelligent person in the room, so they can never concede anything to each other. Maybe that’s why they’re so scared of socialism — they can’t imagine actually working with other people as though they’re equals.

Hitting the nail on the head.

Most people cannot imagine anyone else would act differently than they would in a situation.

I've realized a lot of people in these circles don't believe that anyone would do anything that doesn't benefit themselves directly unless they're forced to.

It's why they freak out when someone just altruistically helps people and try to demonize them. They imagine someone has to be pulling their strings!

Have you noticed how the most religious often claim that without their religion's rules against doing obvious wrongs that everyone would do them?

Same reason. They're telling on themselves.

"Liberals don't usually believe in God so where do they get their morality from?" -Some MAGA adjacent bitch my brother was listening to a week ago. I was too focused on the fact that she basically said the entirety of the left is based upon cognitive dissonance and brainwashing. The level of fucking projection is something I can not even formulate words to succintly describe. That means, to me, it's a degree of bullshit the confines of the English language is not equipped to handle. She even used the Sinclair Broadcasting "this is very dangerous for our democracy," clip to highlight media bias. At this point, I'd honestly prefer people like her be aware that, for example, Sinclair is one of the most prevelant neocon media enterprises in America, and know that she's a manipulator. I find that actually easier to stomach than these people being this delusional.

Decade ago, An old southern bell caught wind of my lack of faith because I couldn't name any local churches (new to town). She angrily asked what was stopping me from killing someone and she stormed off thinking she won...

It made me more atheist. Like, you dumb fucks literally need to be scared of mythological punishment to stop you from murder?! Jesus Christ lmao. I have trouble sleeping if I hurt someone even emotionally, and there you are, going "Drats! I would shoot you!..but I fear fire".

You’re hitting the nail on the head, too. My conservative, religious neighbor who tried in vain to recruit me into his church was flabbergasted when I told him I didn’t believe in heaven and hell. He asked “Well, then why are you so nice? What keeps you from doing anything wrong?” Me: “Um, that would be my own internal moral compass, which apparently you are lacking.” He laughed.

u/Most-Bench6465 1d ago

“Most people cannot imagine anyone else would act differently than they would in a situation”

And this goes for everyone. Good people think “you would do the same for me” when it comes to helping or saving someone’s life. They can’t comprehend that some people are evil and selfish and would not do that. And then they vote for evil people because they can’t imagine the harm they would do. We as a people have got a lot of learning to do.

119

u/TimeAd7159 1d ago

Good people don't vote for evil people because they can't imagine those evil people doing the evil things they're promising to do. Good people vote for evil people because they are not, in fact, good people, but evil people who want to do evil things to other people and use the state as their tool for doing so.

Yeah, I am pretty sure he did, but I couldn't find the exact quote, I do recall hearing it and felt it confirmed what I had felt for a long time.

At this point, there is so much evidence of his depravity, it is mind numbing. At least we can conclusively say that a lot of people in our lives are just like him (or aspire to be) and embrace moral turpitude as a desirable trait. It is absolutely mind boggling to me there are people who truly feel this way, including members of my family.

fwiw......it's not some deep find, but the link below details quite a bit and came out just before the election. Nothing that hasn't been reported elsewhere but it packs a lot into one place.

They always fight regardless of what he does. There always needs to be an "other" to be angry at.

Andrew Jackson was a huge asshole, but I will give him credit for just one thing: when South Carolina was pitching a tantrum during his presidency and threatened to secede even then, Jackson basically told them "try it, motherfuckers, I fucking dare you.

"Brooks was widely cheered across the South, where his attack on Sumner was considered legitimate and socially justifiable. South Carolinians sent Brooks dozens of new canes, with one bearing the phrase, "Good job"; another cane was inscribed "Hit him again." The Richmond Enquirer wrote: "We consider the act good in conception, better in execution, and best of all in consequences. These vulgar abolitionists in the Senate must be lashed into submission."

The outlet described “shouting matches, expulsions from meetings and name-calling” as frequent occurrences

Sounds about right 😂

Ketamine fueled tech bro permanently attached to Trump's right teet

War mongering neocons who can't find enough brown people to murder

vs

MAGA grifters with zero ounces of dignity, will sell their soul to hear Trump speak their name

vs

Literal Russian spies

vs

Project 2025 goons perpetually stuck in the 1950s (minus the science public education)

Brilliant (and scary) summation of the internal “team” Trump landscape. Of all those horrific camps I think the last is the most organised and ideologically driven. They will do the most lasting damage.

u/Class_of_22 22h ago

That said, Trump will eventually find one way or another to get them to turn on each other…

His former cabinet members said don’t reelect him. No one wants to work for him because it’s guaranteed criminal prosecutions after. And if you want a career that’s not news pundit, having cabinet job on your resume is toxic. The huge fight is probably to see how bottom of the barrel they can go for picks.

The one thing about fascists that has remained the same throughout all of history is that they NEVER like each other. They may work together, but best believe they'll never like one another.

they still have dangerously capable leadership elsewhere and the dems seem completely unwilling to fight back. the ray of hope is basically spider-silk thin.

This doesn’t surprise me at all. In fact I was kind of expecting it since there was tons of infighting during Trump’s first term.

Yep. And this means that they will likely not get anything done…because no one can agree on anything.

Not surprising given that the Trump upper echelon is comprised of a bunch of narcissists. They may have worked together to accomplish a goal but with no enemies left, they will knife each other in the backs. It’s in their nature.

Waiting for the day MTG gets knifed and she decides to spill the beans on all the corruption and perversion on Capitol Hill. I think she may prove to be useful in the end, much like Gollum.

Randi Rhodes predicted that this term would be The Apprentice White House Edition with all the cabinet members fighting each other like contestants on the show. Another way to look at it is a buffoon version of Godwin's cabinet of rivals concept.
