Why is Vicious Mockery so effective against these clowns?

I mean. If they were competent and confident in what they're doing they really wouldn't be bothered by stuff like this. But every time whether its covfefe or taco or couch fucking they just melt like a wicked witch being given a swirly.

The fact that this TACO thing bothers him that much is the best reason to not only continue, but to expand that campaign.

Trump always chickens out — we’re just bringing the tacos to match,” DNC Chair Ken Martin said in a statement on the food truck’s message. “Instead of realizing his tariff chaos is wrecking the economy, Trump continues to drag America towards more economic pain, and the rest of the world sees Trump for exactly what he is: a chicken.”

Still waiting on people to wise up that Martin is actually legit.

The dude knows what he's doing

Maybe so but the majority of the rest of the Democrats have no fucking clue what they're doing and actively undermine anything the minority of Democrats and progressives do to effectively oppose these fascists.

but the majority of the rest of the Democrats

Decades of neoliberals shenigans have conflated "the party" with individual elected representatives

That was never how it was supposed to work

We just took a big step in fixing that. Martin doesn't play favorites, the winner of the primary is who the party will support, and they're not gonna pick sides till a primary is over.

The only reason a lot of those elected representatives are even still in office is the party fought off primary challengers for decades protecting them. They can't win fair primaries, even with the money advantage

They know exactly what they are doing: stroking off the corporate money spigots.

Takes easy shots for internet points while maintaining the status quo and not trying for any actual improvements

The Dems are legit and got it figured out now!

An article saying they're taking in more private money and giving it to their state reps? Without any mention of policy or government planning?

No actually, can't really put my finger on why, but that really doesn't do it for me.

[-] givesomefucks@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

and giving it to their state reps?

No, to state parties...

The state parties that neoliberals spent almost a decade bankrupty thru the victory fund.

Like, it's not writing checks to politicians, it's paying staffers to work starting now instead of waiting till six months before an election.

Turning those into full time permanent positions, and a venue for an average working class person to become involved in politics.

I'm sorry you don't understand how this is a big deal, so feel free to keep asking questions. It might help someone else who sees it too.

Did you even say Thank You for the tacos, James Donald Bowman?

Learn some manners!

[-] stoy@lemmy.zip 8 points 1 month ago

Dear Mr. Vance, if this protest by the opposition is as lame as you say, why do you acknowledge it at all?

I can only conclude that this protest have gotten under your and Mr. Trump's skin, and you don't have any effective counter to it.

[-] twjolson@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

You are not allowed to call him "Vance" because that is not what is on his birth certificate.

[-] stoy@lemmy.zip 1 points 1 month ago

Hummm, I wonder how many would understand who I was talking about if I called him Mr. Bowman?

Also, that fucking idiot is just three years older than me, what?

[-] iamanoldguy@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago

They "deployed" a taco truck. Everything is militarized with these tangerine, brain worm, couch fucking losers.

Oh, and FREE tacos! Who doesn't want free tacos!

The way the headline was written, I thought there was an actual brawl.

[-] BigMacHole@sopuli.xyz 4 points 1 month ago

HA! That's PROOF that THIS is MUCH More Effective then Stopping Trump's AGENDA!

-The DNC!

Taco Jr has feefees

If they weren’t serving exclusively chicken tacos, that’s a missed opportunity 😂

He needs to shut his fucking mouth and go stick his micro pud in another couch.
