Our party voted for him. He’s one of the great American presidents. He beat Trump in 2020 and will beat him again. He polls better against Trump than anyone else in the party.
F*cking with our votes and deposing our leader is a grave mistake.
There’s *zero* evidence—not a *shred* of evidence *anywhere*—that Harris, Pritzker, Newsom, Moore, Shapiro, Whitmer, or any other Democrat can defeat Trump. Their polling is worse and they’ve no path to victory. Think otherwise? *You’re* the one living in a fantasy world, not us.
I’m sick and f*cking tired of being told Biden supporters have blinders on—even as those contesting our position have *no* polls to point to, *no* history to point to, and *no* medical records to point to to support their position. Indeed, *all* the *facts* are on the other side.
No one polls better than Biden. Parties that switch horses this late *lose*—*every goddamn time*. America is racist and misogynistic and is *champing at the bit* to pull the same sh*t on Harris or Shapiro or Pritzer or Whitmer or Moore that they did to Clinton. Know your country.
The presidential race is close because America is a f*cked-up country that’s obsessed with Trump right now—largely because media made him, media needs him, and media sustains him. The people saying President Biden is the problem are the assholes who gave us Trump to begin with.
If you have some little princess fantasy in your head of the swooningly perfect candidate everyone will just *adore* and *no one* will *attack*, you are a f*cking child and I have no use for you. *You* are the delusional onanistic imbecile, not people who see the score as it is.
Here’s the score: Donald Trump thinks only a white guy can beat him and God help us it *sucks* but right now he’s right. That’s why we need a man who’s beaten him (handily) before, has the bully pulpit, has the gravitas of the presidency, and polls better against him than anyone.
This election will be close as hell. It was *always* going to be close as hell because America sucks right now—half of us were conned by a born loser with ten layers of orange bronzer on his disgusting face. Your *fantasy* that this would be easy with somebody else is *pathetic*.
Is it possible democracy will lose? You bet your *ass* it is. Because—see prior tweets—America sucks right now. But the fact that this’ll be neck and neck *doesn’t logically equate* to someone else have a better shot than Biden.
That math doesn’t math because it’s *wishcasting*.
You want to be like Trump and try to undo a national vote? You want to spit in the face of your own voters? You want to fall into an *obvious MAGA trap*? You want to show the sort of fecklessness MAGAs think all Democrats natively possess? You want to be led by the nose by media?
We can’t stop you in most of those things, as none of us can pull a lever to keep others from being f*cknuts.
But *don’t* f*cking lie to our faces and say the polls support your coup; they don’t.
*Don’t* say history says you’re right—as in fact it says you’re courting disaster.
And it’s already been established that President Biden has no cognitive issues—read the medical report from February yourself—and that his issues in June are behind him because they were caused by a foreign trip schedule *even the NYT says* would’ve devastated a man half his age.
You want to do a coup because some billionaire donor said so? Because some media titan said so? Because a handful of Democrats out of 260 in Congress are cowards? Go ahead—try it. Be a silly little wishcaster. But don’t BULLSHIT us that you’re the tough ones. You’re soft as hell.

Imagine being a 42 year-old pleading with a known pedophilic sex criminal to fly you to his island so you can party with girls he assures you will be 25 or younger.
Then imagine lying about it to hundreds of millions. Even after your lies are caught.
You don't hate Elon enough.
Instead of saying—as honor demands—"I made horrible mistakes for which there's no excuse, I'll take time away from public life to reflect on them," he's kept lying, attacked media, tried to distract, and obscenely said he worked harder than Epstein's victims to get the Files out.
Now imagine that this happens during the same 12-month period this man gleefully—without having any idea what he was doing, or even *caring* if he had any idea—cut a massive foreign aid program whose erasure is projected to cause *more than 10 million deaths* in the years ahead.
This major report on the Greg Bovino-to-Tom Homan handover in Minneapolis at once reveals that the Trump regime hasn’t changed its plans for ICE *and* serves as a primer on the many aspects of the criminal justice system Homan lied about today.
It can't be sufficiently emphasized that the Trump regime has at all points lied about every aspect of its immigration agenda, every aspect of how immigration enforcement works and every aspect of the justice system that touches upon immigration enforcement.
It's all a long con.
No one is saying that every American must understand the justice system.
That would be ideal, but it's impractical.
The problem is that our justice system lies at the center of our politics—which means ignorance about how it works is ripe for abuse by an authoritarian regime.
I shouldn't even have to say this, but precisely *no one* in the independent journalism sphere is saying that Trump can *legally* cancel the midterms.
So corporate media should put on its thinking cap and ask themselves what independent journalists *are* saying.
Yes.... *that*.
It's Month 1 of a 10-month plan and they're already illegally invading countries, illegally occupying U.S. cities, posting Nazi memes from government accounts almost daily, and publicly saying there should be no elections anymore. You think their plan is to do *anything* legally?
So I've no idea why corporate media keeps sanctimoniously reminding us of something we already know—that Trump can't *legally* cancel elections. Because that's not where the debate or mystery is now. The question is whether he thinks he can wait until 2028 to declare martial law.
The question media should be asking: if Minneapolis only needs 600 police officers to perform all general law enforcement activities in the city, why did Trump send 3,000 federal agents to execute a statutorily and constitutionally *much* smaller task?
Answer? He wanted a *war*.
Based on the size of the task and authority ICE actually has—merely executing judicial warrants for already-identified undocumented persons—we'd expect an ICE "surge" in Minneapolis to be about 100 agents.
Trump sent *30 times that*.
Because he wants to declare an insurrection.
So if you're an American paying only small attention to Minneapolis and wondering why things are crazy there, imagine *your* town being the target of an *unprecedented* federal op.
Big deal, right?
Now imagine the feds sending *30 times* too many men—most *virtually untrained*.
(🧵) THREAD: There’s no purpose in debating Trump supporters on Venezuela. They lack the background to participate in a coherent conversation. Do they know Trump is backing a socialist despot over a capitalist who won the 2024 election by 34 points? No.
It gets worse from there.
1/ People without principles, like MAGAs, desperately alight on random anecdotes to try to “prove” points—as they don’t know how to *actually* prove a point, make an argument, hold a consistent position, marshal evidence, or maintain logical throughlines across diverse scenarios.
2/ So for instance, they’ll tell you that the justness of what Trump did is “proven” by how some Venezuelans reacted to it. But these are the same folks whose political ideology has long been grounded in denying international law and the sovereignty or interests of other nations.
As detailed in 2020 bestseller Proof of Corruption, Trump used Erik Prince, Rudy Giuliani and a megadonor to launch clandestine negotiations in Venezuela that would've effectuated some version of the deal. America is being lied to every which way.
What the NYT-bestselling Proof Series has shown—across 2,500 pages and over 15,000 reliable major media citations from around the world—is that what we think of as many different scandals is *one* scandal: the Trump-Russia Scandal. Ukraine, Israel, KSA, Venezuela... even Epstein.
The Trump-Russia Scandal, as a research topic, is so vast—it covers so many continents, decades, and scandals in various nations—that we can analogize being a scholar of it to being a scholar of the Cold War or the Gilded Age.
We keep speaking of trees without seeing the forest.
