Had some MAGAot tell me that ALL Democrats are only career politicians. That none are doctors, or nurses or military.
They stood there and told me to my face that the 2nd amendment is there to defeat tyrants like Joe Biden.
These people are dangerous insurgents. This next election needs to be an astounding rejection of everything they stand for.
ReplyIf it can’t be done with words, it will be done with war. Democrats have done nothing but prepare for 6 years. More farmers are democrats. More police have shifted sides. They are tired of being associated with people who want to destroy the very system they protect.
Political and commercial use of the “opps I’m wholesome” is not a very human design
Replythe real problem is that the other option is Lula. which if you just look into his political ideas is not much better. his love for leaders like Chavez and Castro doesn’t help.
ReplyThose little events around Ukraine might deserve to be covered?
ReplyHe was called Trump of the Jungle – and he behaves like Trump of the jungle.
ReplyPrepare for the worst, this will happen.
And tropical soil, having a high rate of microbian activity, is quite acidic – not good for agriculture.
Just ignorance piled on ignorance piled on incompetency.

ReplyGood for Bolsonaro for not caving to all the pressure to lock down his country.. Seriously, was there actual science behind that? 6 feet apart? Where are the papers on that? What about the paper masks? Those are scientific right?
ReplyMan, the bozo guy is a wrecking ball.
ReplyI have inlaws who love him, not like, but love. I must admit that it’s the first time when I worry tanks might be in the streets in a few years.
*I have a hunch he’ll run to Italy if he loses.
We’re having to choose between a former inmate and a psychopath. Grim times around here. I’m voting for the former inmate, Bolsonaro is gonna f us up. Prices have gone double to triple they were prior pandemic and the government says it’s gone up “only” 30%, which is a naughty lie.
ReplyIs Bolsonaro the Brazilian word for asshole?
ReplyDemocracy can only last so long in the face of authoritarian scumbags who participate in it.
ReplyLoved the Netflix joke .
ReplyOnly good thing Netflix ever did was releasing RRR .
4:04 “There are only 3 alternatives: I am arrested, I am killed, or I am victorious!”
I actually agree. Those are the only ways to deal with fascists like Bolsonaro. They don’t go away by themselves, they don’t respect democracy, so either they win, or they are politically neutralized.
ReplyI left Brazil in 2018 when Bolsonaro got elected. I still have friends and family there, of course. This episode literally got me in tears. Thanks, John. I hope this nightmare will be over soon.
ReplyInoculation drives? How in the flying F would that have stopped Brazil from getting covid? Are we still pretending that this vaccine is a one size fits all? and actually stops you from getting and transmitting covid..
ReplyI’m so tired of these corrupt narcissistic idiots that will burn the world to the ground because nothing else matters to them but their own power.
