Cool story, anyway here's you eating dog food.

The MAGA victory lap on getting Massie out when they had to spend 35 million and won by 10 in a Trump 35 district seems misguided.  Trump has a 34% approval rating. He’s -18 with Independents and Democrats are up 11 for the midterms. Plus, he just endorsed Ken Paxton who is so bad even his own party impeached him.  Plus, Trump’s campaign platform boils down to I don’t care about your finances, I’m going to trade stocks and make billions, use your money to pay J6ers, and get immunity from an audit for me and my family in perpetuity.  I think Democrats can work with that.

@ChristianHeiens “It’d be simpler to be their enemy” deal! I’m going to spend the rest of my life fighting to make sure people like you are ruled by the nastiest democrats possible

The lesson from this mass crash out is quite simple. Do not pander to Libertarians, ever. These people cannot be satiated in any way and there is no point in ever trying to court them. The moment you do, they begin to act like they own you. They have no sense of courtesy, no sense of loyalty, and regularly treat their own “allies” worse than they do their stated enemies. These people will genuinely take someone who agrees with them 80% of the time, and abuse them to no end even as they lavish praise upon someone who agrees with them just 20% of the time. It is preferable to simply be their enemy right from the start than it is to try and win them over. Don’t give these people the option to be on your side. Force them to become Democrats like they’ve always wanted to be. They’ll destroy the Dems from within anyway because Libertarianism is an inherently anti-political ideology that has no idea how to seize power and wield it. There are some with a libertarian-ish mindset who genuinely hate Progressive managerialism, central banking, and the Federal administrative state. These people are friends, not enemies. The problem isn’t with each and every person who may call themselves a “libertarian” or a “liberty-minded conservative”. The problem is with Libertarianism as a governing philosophy. It is useful as an acid and little more. Libertarianism can dissolve power, but it cannot build a lasting political order. We are entering an age where order must be reestablished. And this makes Libertarianism not only incompatible with the Right, but actually antagonistic.

If Thomas Massie held the same exact views but ran as a Democrat, Libertarian, Republican, or Independent, I would support him. If you can't understand that, you are thinking of politics like a team sport, and you are a very unserious person.

The Republican Party and Trump must be defeated this November These people aren’t even hiding how evil they are anymore.

When Trump ran in 2016, he surged in popularity because a huge portion of America felt forgotten and invisible. His populist MAGA movement crossed generational, racial, religious, and ideological lines, building a massive and diverse coalition. What’s happening now is that many conservatives under 40 are beginning to feel the way that coalition felt in 2016: disenfranchised, ignored, and disillusioned by the system. Meanwhile, many Baby Boomers are generally satisfied. Their property values are rising, their 401(k)s are growing, and they strongly support America’s relationship with Israel. As a result, many younger conservatives are becoming increasingly unhappy not only with the direction of American politics, but also increasingly resentful toward a generation they feel they have less and less in common with — and toward an administration they believe caters to that generation at their expense. Caught in the middle is Gen X, often split between both sides entirely, or issue by issue. But one thing is becoming abundantly clear: the conservative movement 10 years from now will bear little resemblance to the conservative movement of today. As feelings of anger, betrayal, and resentment compound, most of the ideas being accepted as the standard today are going to be thrown out. The next generations are going to tear the system down. And that is the great disappointment of this moment. It could have been different. There was every opportunity to begin building the future of the conservative movement right now — by listening to younger generations and including them in discussions about the decisions being made today that will shape their lives tomorrow. It could have been a multi-generational coalition built on mutual respect, leading toward a smooth passing of the baton. Instead, this increasingly feels like an administration designed almost exclusively around the priorities of the oldest generation. It’s not sustainable. In its current form, it leaves little room for adaptation, transition, or expansion. It’s alienating. The next 10 years of the conservative movement are going to be the Wild West. And though there will be great uncertainty, there will also be great opportunity.

@patriot_savvy This isn’t going to work on any of us. You people need to be punished until you understand that our beliefs are non negotiable. If you continue to refuse to make the country better I will empower the democrats to make it worse to spite you

If you were a Massie supporter and you’re now threatening to leave the Republican Party, stop voting, or vote Democrat… you’re the adult version of “I’m taking my toys and going home.” Take a couple days to be pissed off, that’s fine. But then get back in the fight with us. If we quit every time something doesn’t go our way, we’ll never win. The America First movement isn’t a fragile little club that folds at the first setback, it’s a war for this country. Real warriors don’t rage-quit when the battle gets ugly. They reload and keep charging. Stay in the fight. 🇺🇸 ~ Tiffany Savage 💋✌🏻🇺🇸

My whole timeline is infested with chronically delusional fucking boomers trying to gaslight people into thinking their lives were so difficult and they were so poor when they are the wealthiest, most successful generation in human history.

@SchnurreZueri @vancemurphy Good! We supported the GOP and they betrayed us at every turn and made us suffer, now it’s their turn

@vancemurphy Not sure how this is funny? At the end Conservatives will suffer, whoever presidential candidate (Santis like you) we supported.

lol Trump is going lose 90 seats in the midterms. 9D chess guys!!! All part of the plan.

@NY_LBSS @MostlyMonkey I don’t know if you’re familiar with “cash for clunkers” but you guys literally sold your crappy cars to the government for them to turn into scrap metal specifically so that Zoomers couldn’t have them

@MostlyMonkey The other big one is cars and travel. Zoomers all have 500-700 a month car payments because they won’t get crappy cars. And they’ve already all travelled more than their grandparents.

He's right, and all the accounts saying that American 20somethings shouldn't have to economize on lunch because of boomers/immigrants/blacks are a bunch of entitled princesses

@KyleMatovcik “They don’t deserve your vote but you have to give it to them” is the only thing suicidal in this post

Either sit out or vote Republican. Voting for democrats is absolutely suicidal behavior. That does not mean Republicans deserve your support either.

@RepNancyMace What about Israel

America FIRST. Not Somalia. Not India. Not China. Not anywhere else.

Have people not gotten the memo yet that the entire reason antizionists have taken their rigid position is because they have determined, through extensive research, that it is the single issue which ultimately prevents action on all the other priorities you listed?

@NeastWS @F530Josh Well, I mean it checks out that they had lower upkeep costs in terms of bills and had a higher purchasing power so unless his raw data is off it makes sense to me

@OSUstormtroop @F530Josh it's the Boomers spending 15% more in real terms compared to Gen Z that doesn't seem right to me, idk

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but it was never normal for you to stop at the gas station every morning on your way to work to pickup breakfast, lunch, and energy drinks for the day, and yes, it is destroying the budget you never made which is why you’re fiscally stuck. 🤙

@NeastWS @F530Josh I don’t actually think your chart and the original post are conflicting. The FRED graph shows young-age spending has grown in real terms since the 1980s. The generational comparison shows each cohort spent roughly similarly (in today’s dollars) during their own 20s.

@OSUstormtroop @F530Josh tbh the consumer expenditure data (which looks at the household level, which complicates things as household formation patterns change) and other sources of data (such as UDSA) have conflicting findings on the ratio of food at home to foot away from home spending over time

@NeastWS @F530Josh I guess I’m confused as to what your argument or position is, my point in including that graph is that the discourse is painting a narrative that Gen Z is struggling financially because they blow all their money on expensive food, which the data seems to refute

@OSUstormtroop @F530Josh i'm not sure why you think inflation-adjusted expenditures going up indicated "large cost of living increases" as opposed to higher inflation-adjusted incomes your chart show food spending as a share of total spending going down as people get richer.... which is good!

@NeastWS @F530Josh Forgive me if I’m interpreting this wrong, but your source seems to me to indicate large cost of living increases as opposed to something more related to the frugality argument?

@OSUstormtroop @F530Josh idk about ages 20-29 specifically but for under 25 and 25-34, inflation adjusted consumer expenditures are 10-15% higher than in 1984 fred.stlouisfed.org/graph/?g=1WtAv

@TheBrancaShow @JefcoopJeff You’re going to be ruled by democrats and you deserve it

For all the people wondering why I choose Trump over Massie: There's only one force holding back the Democrats from importing hundreds of millions of third-worlders, making them instant citizens with the vote, ending America forever, and turning into our own version of every other degenerate third-world hellhole. That person is NOT Thomas Massie. That person is Donald J. Trump. You force me to chose between them, and I'll chose the one that is the only possible salvation for our nation in its existential fight for survival, warts and all, every day, and twice on Sundays.

You can’t even grasp how much the man writing this hates you if you’re a man under 45

Boomers are straight up liars. They LARP the struggles their parents actually went through, to seem noble. They know they had the greatest economy in human history, it is factually true. They know the cost of living is absurd. Millennials drink less, smoke less, go out less, which is why many industries are dying. They blame millennials for everything, because they are evil. Dumping their sins into their children, like a Jew does with a chicken. Is just how they pretend at some wise nobility, believing God won't notice they lived their entire existence for nobody but themselves.
