I really hope this keeps going, no introspection, just blame game. Nothing about "why aren't we good enough?" "What did we do wrong?"

They are still recovering from grief, still in the denial stage of it.
But it is amusing to watch them all being flabbergasted to the aftereffects of basing your whole ideological platformed beliefs on virtue signaling.

I don't know if I can make 5 turkey sammies for under $29.04. I need to do better I guess.
I think what happened to Joe Rogan was a lot like what happened to me. Why did I start seeing myself as white/conservative/straight/Southerner/whatever? Because the leftists wouldn't let me be seen as anyone other than than.

Think of the Prussians in...call it 1925-1930. Now compare that to Germany 8-10 years later. Even the Prussians wanted to off that "other guy" because he was so extreme.
These cultural/ political shifts are a "thing," they absolutely happen.

I had to walk away and listen to understand rather than to respond. My conclusion? You are right but you are also not right.
The man cannot even go on any social media and wish anyone a neutral Happy Thanksgiving without being attacked for something as benign as that. One could argue to be the better person and not let them get to you. But one can also say where's the human decency to stand up for someone when being shown poor manners? If the Left really want to mend things and be unified, show us that they can actually do such things and be selfless for once and taking their own to task PUBLICLY.
And he's right, they have been raving lunatics, wanting to use this holiday to divide families, friends, and so on wanting to force the issue and choose an ideology over a friendships and families. This isn't what a sane person does.
Donald Trump has every right to show that he's had his fill, he has 1A rights himself. Plus I am getting overtired of being called things that I am not. The D's despite losing twitter, still use it more than R's as a news source. F their safe spaces, I no longer care for human decency to those who show none at all but at the same time demanding it unconditionally. They deserve mean tweets 2.0 because quite frankly they earned that themselves for being toxic.
Why?
Tell me *why* you hope that the President of the United States stops exercising his First Amendment right? Why is that sad?
His grandstanding usually pissed me off, I loved that tweet. He was right.
I know where you’re coming from, brother, but Trump is Trump and will always be Trump…And I can’t blame him for comments like these after the abuse he’s endured from the combined forces of the Left, their global media, their weaponized “justice” system and their hysterical rhetoric that almost put a bullet in his brain.

….sigh….
Never have I ever…”hoped the President of the United States stops exercising his First Amendment rights”.
What I hoped for, was that Donald J Trump would take the high road and consider himself the President of the United States of all American’s; not just the ones who voted for him/agree with him. I find it difficult to believe that had Kamala won the race, and then posted a similar Thanksgiving message, calling out “Right Wing Lunatics”, we would be defending her First Amendment rights.
I knew what I was signing up for when I voted for him, but I will die on the mountain maintaining that once elected, the President should walk the high-road, and not literally insult the American’s who disagree with him. It’s not good for the Republican Party (what’s left of it anyway) and I genuinely believe it’s what caused Trump to lose the 2020 election; and cost many conservatives their seats.
Even a basic GPT filter delivers the same message without the abrasiveness -
“Happy Thanksgiving to everyone, including the Radical Left, who have tried to harm our country but have failed and will always fail. Their ideas and policies are so flawed that the American people recently delivered a decisive victory to those who believe in making America great again!”
I guess that is too much to ask, but I had hoped I was wrong.

I don't have a problem with Trump's tweet.
I am sick of conservatives "taking the high road."
ETA: I would like to think WE all want unity, but I do not think THEY do. It's about money and power, and we are just customers.

I'm guessing the reason he feels the need to tweet what he did, is because we have been called things we are not and accused of things we haven't done, on loop.

I admit I am a bit split. I do wish Trump would be less Trump in his communications and more 'presidential'. However: with what the left has called me and people who think like me, the vile, deplorable (see what I did there?) crap, I also think 'to the victor goes the spoils,' and I am OK with him going scorched earth on the left. Fuck them. What @Topkick said is true, I think the left doesn't want unity.

I want to see Rupaul do an advertisement for Gillette Mens Razors - just to see society scratching their head trying to figure out if they need to be outraged or not...

...but he is shaving his legs
...to attend conservative republican fund raiser
...cant be outraged about that
...or can you

It's only another word that they use out of context. "Unity" to them is having your wills bent to theirs. Their false sense of unity is their words coming from our mouths.
