Biden’s ‘Garbage’ Comment As ‘Deplorables 2.0’

The thing I’ve noticed about conservatives is how often they have a huge fucking chip on their shoulder. That’s why Biden’s gaff caused by his stutter gets them worked up into a frenzy — see picture above of Texas’ Lt. Governor. They freak out at any sign of someone looking down on them, just as they are completely indifferent to the families they tear apart at the border.

It’s a very unsettling paradox.

But, here we are. Conservatives think that Biden’s remark is a “gotcha” that they can use to cruise to success. They see it as equal to the “deplorables” comment that Hillary Clinton made during the 2016 campaign.

It’s somewhat open to debate if that is the case. We’ll see, I suppose. But we are definitely in the political silly season now. Big time. Any little thing for good or bad gets warped and twisted into a Big Deal and this will continue between now and election day.

I still don’t know what’s going to happen with the election. It really could go either way at this point. I would like to think that Harris has some momentum, but I really got burned in 2016, so…I’m not prepared to accept that on face value just yet.

Even if Harris wins outright on election night, Trump could use extra legal and extra political means to “win,” such that the country implodes.

There’s Going To Be An American Diaspora if Trump Wins

I have repeatedly told my far more conservative relatives — whom I love dearly — that late night TV will be purged if Trump wins. To date, all I’ve gotten as a reaction is a lulz. They just don’t care. All they care about is closing the border to scary brown people and putting the ones who are already here in camps before they get deported.

That’s it, that’s their only concern.

When I press them on what a disaster deporting 10 to 20 million undocumented people would be, all I get is a hand wave. They don’t really care what happens if it Trump fulfills that promise, they just want it to happen. They want things to go back to the way they were at some nebulous point in the past when America was “great.”

The idea that there would be purge of American late night TV is pretty profound. It’s something that I will be able to point to and say, “Uh, I think we’re in trouble, guys.”

It definitely makes me wonder what the conservatives in my life — whom I love dearly — will respond to such things. I suppose they will just shrug and go about their business until I eventually get arrested for refusing to stop saying that MAGA is fucking fascist bullshit and can collectively suck my cock.

But we have to appreciate that there’s probably going to be a massive diaspora if Trump wins. I continue to believe that about 1 million smug Twitter liberals will begin to flee the country at some point after Trump officially winning the election.

Things could get so bad that Trump locks the country down and it will grow really, really difficult to get out at all.

I know that sounds hysterical at the moment, but it’s definitely something we need to contemplate at the moment. All those Americans leave the country could dramatically change world culture.
