On these polls showing how fucked Democrats are, I would strongly encourage our deeply stupid yapping dog and other obedient Pavlov's dogs to try really hard to just be a little less deeply stupid. There are not many polls now that show the generic Congressional ballot for 2026. One done in January by Trump's own pollster showed a dead heat between Democrats and Republicans. The two most recent ones both show Democrats in the lead, as Trump's "let's cut Medicaid" plans to reward his billionaire campaign donors like Elon Musk with tax cuts and political power play out. Trump is a rapist, a liar, a traitor, and an insolent pig. This is just going to get worse. He is a traitorous embarrassment to the US and the world. The anger and rage is only deepening by the day. So our deeply, pathetically stupid yapping dog and other Republicans out there really should be careful what they wish for. Because they are basically saying they are happy that many Democrats, not me, would love to see Chuck Schumer blow Trump's brains out. So that this traitorous, useless man had his shit brain splattered all over some wall, and America could move on. The rage is deep and just keeps growing. And poor Chuck Schumer just put himself in the path of it by doing something I thought was actually wise. Sorry, but Trump is in charge now. I don't see how a government shutdown helps show why having a competent government matters. So I am actually happy that many Democrats are enraged at the Democratic Party for ................ what? Not having the votes to beat Trump in the House or Senate? Sorry. We came very close. We actually won one House seat. But Schumer is basically next to powerless. If AOC wants change, she should buy a gun and blow Trump's brains out. Because right now that is about all Democrats can do. And, to be clear, I am not saying they should do that. But I am saying this is what is driving Democratic rage. They want Chuck Schumer or AOC or somebody to do things that they can't do. Either because they don't have the votes, or because these are things that don't happen in a democracy .... like blowing Trump's brain out. What our deeply stupid yapping dog does not seem to understand, because his mind if only conditioned to obey, is that this is not good news for Trump, or Republicans. You have a large group of Democrats who basically want Schumer to put a bullet in Trump's brain. So if anyone thinks that anger and rage will not be directed at Trump in 2026 and 2028, you better stop being so deeply stupid. I am feeling the vibe because I just spent the evening with one of my closest Gay friends, who 10 or 20 years ago was mostly apolitical. If I brought up W. or the Iraq War, he would politely yawn and change the subject. Now he is the one who brings up Trump. And the anger he feels in Trump going after HIV funding. And the anger he feels at his siblings who allowed this to happen by voting for Trump. The rage is strong, and getting stronger by the day. So if our stupid yapping dog feels that Trump is being wise by igniting rage among so many Americans who hate the America Trump wants us to be, they really should be careful. They will end up with the opposite of what they think they want. If you don't believe me, look at the election results for 2018 and 2020. Something much deeper than that is already brewing, only two months in. Sorry, yapping dog. You are adorable and cute. But you are deeply stupid. So you don't get a treat tonight. If you want to build massive indignation against Trump and MAGA, just keep doing exactly what you are doing.

2008 was around when I was being the best little volunteer ever for marriage equality. I will never forget getting political junk mail for Obama, who of course won. But also against the same sex marriage initiative in California, which of course narrowly lost, quoting Obama as being against same sex marriage. In fairness, he did not send out the mailers. But they quoted Obama in them, to undercut the same sex marriage side. And it worked. Many Gays and liberals view that as a judicial win. And it was, in that SCOTUS ultimately delivered a verdict. But even they were clear in interviews that they read the polls and saw where the public was headed. So I will always think of this as a massive grassroots victory of nobodys who poured their hearts out, and changed history. That is why we won, I think. The political leaders followed. Same way it has been on many other freedom and liberation issues. There is a quote from Jeb! that I love, and I think sums up the nature of the victory. That is so precisely correct. Jeb! could not fathom it. And yet we, The Gays, and our allies - which included liberals - did change thousands of years of culture and history.

I am not the kind of guy who will ever win a Nobel Prize for genetic research. So could someone explain this to me? Why do predatory Republicans who pay to have sex with teenage girls who are 17 alway looks just like predatory Republicans who pay to have sex with teenage girls who are 17? Is there a gene for it? Granted, Eichorn does not have the panache and natural sex appeal of Matt Gaetz. But they still look like they came from the same gene pool.

I'm curious what I said, verbatim. I did think Harris would win, obviously incorrectly. Although it was close enough that small changes could have changed the outcome. Harris lost most momentum in October. And I would pin that momentum shift to the Vance/Walz debate. My point is that Harris did a great job in her debate making Trump look unacceptable. The Vance/Walz debate was actually a very good debate. But that normalized the campaign. It was just a normal policy debate between two normal and smart politicians. My point, which I think was backed up by focus group data, is that Harris and Walz both should have doubled down and tripled down on why holding your nose and voting for Trump was simply unacceptable. In short, the strategy almost worked. But lots of annoyed people held their nose and voted for Trump because they were pissed about inflation and immigration. Trump and his campaign head LaCivita have both publicly said the same basic thing. It was inflation. The fact that Trump could happen was my worst fear all last Fall. But certainly his favorable rating gradually going down suggests the early onset of buyer's remorse. And the polls are clear. Americans despise Genocide Man. They do not want to be allies with Russia as long as Genocide Man runs it. You consistently come here to back a homophobic genocidal monster. Are you really too slow to understand why Gay Americans in particular want absolutely nothing to do with a homophobic genocidal monster? The long term trend since 2008 is that Russians themselves want NOTHING to do with Genocide Man and Genocide World. The net migration rate keeps going down. Putin's genocide only accelerated that in 2022 and 2023, as those numbers show. You live in a place people despise and leave. You are losing the best and the brightest. You are fucked. You are a gas station that turns your poorest citizens and ethnic minorities and criminals into meat in support of genocide and kleptocracy. Geez, why would people want to leave a hell like that? That's a polite way of saying Genocide Man blew up their homes and schools, killed the mothers, killed the fathers, and stole the children. Who in God's name would want to live in a country that does that?

Or worse. For those of you following White Lotus, it is a bit like obviously Trumper Parker Posey's character telling her husband how perfect he is, as he quietly considers suicide. But the scenes of Taiwan are beautiful. 🤪

The polls don't back up your claim. But, regardless, Americans should be the most hated right now. Yeah, I do think Genocide Man is worse. No one is desperate to get into Genocide World. Except the children of the men and women Genocide Man slaughtered. But our own insolent pig rapist felon dumb shit traitor Trump is a new thing, as least in terms of Trump 2.0, Traitor Edition. Everyone should hate him, as far as I am concerned. And, yeah, being a weak Putin ass kissing traitor is one of the reasons I hate him most. The insolent pig Trump is worthless. He is building a coalition against America, and handing power to Putin and Xi. What is hard for me is that all my siblings, even the two Republicans, despise Trump and what he is doing. But two of their kids, one niece and one nephew and both of whom I love, buy this "America first, you second" shit. They are both affluent. So I can put it in a context of "We really don't want to be bothered with that shit. Let us just be rich, and fuck the rest of the world." And they are surprisingly ignorant in their political views. Like if you don't know Kevin McCarthy was the House Speaker, and you say you are a knowledgeable Republican, that doesn't wash. Anyway, I love my niece and nephew. But their grandfather, my Dad, a Reaganite WWII veteran, would be rolling in his grave. He lived long enough to despise Trump himself.

Keep it coming. Loyal and stupid. I cite a right-of-center website that says that, right now, four polls show that Democrats are ahead of Republicans by about one percent. One of which is by Trump's own pollster. If you only use the last two, in March, they suggest Democrats are a little further ahead and gaining momentum. We know for a fact that Americans do not view Russia and Putin as an ally. But you don't believe that, either. That is one of many reasons Americans who held their nose and voted for Trump are already suffering buyer's remorse. But the main thing, as Trump's campaign co-manager Chris LaCivita just said in an interview, is Trump won thanks to inflation. And he is not delivering lower prices. Everyone gets that tariffs means higher prices. You are living proof that having your brain filled with shit by a homophobic and genocidal autocrat does not make you wiser. And topping it all off with ChatGPT doesn't help.

And this is hysterical. I wish Putin's problem was that he had rabies in his anus. I wish your problem was you said mildly unpleasant things, like I have rabies in my anus. Although I know you are not abusive, and you mean that in the kindest of ways. Putin’s young victims: Faces of children killed by war as Ukraine says 90 die Russian ‘atrocities’ An 18-month-old baby is among the children who have been killed in Putin’s bloody invasion Putin's real problem is that he is a homophobic and genocidal monster. And you come here to defend him. How civilized!

I am confused. You are really on a roll here, Genocide Fan. You keep saying shit that refutes your own arguments. I think too much Putin and ChatGPT is turning your Genocide Fan brain to shit. Which, frankly, did not start out all that great anyway. Be careful. You are arguing I am a paranoid narcissist. And then you turn around and argue somehow what I say on an obscure chat board impacts the Democratic Party. Seriously? Who do you think you are? More to the point, who do you think I am? I am a loyal Democrat. And the main way I help Democrats now is by donating money. I think if they moderated off some of the culture war excesses and focused on populist working class economics it would help them. In 2026 and 2028 I will probably swing hard to the center in terms of who I vote for and support. But I think right now I am mostly powerless. Trump rules, and he is wrecking everything. So now we just have to wait and see how many nations he betrays, how much he helps Putin and XI, and how much of America he wrecks. That is what matters. Not me. The insolent pig and traitor is going to stab his own fat ass self in the back, just like in 2018 and 2020. Again, why are you so loyal and stupid? 2026 Generic Congressional Vote Note that even in January, when Trump came in like a hurricane, Trump's own pollster showed Democrats and Republicans even. Which, by the way, is what the actual 2024 election results showed. Demcrats WON one House seat. It's a democracy, which you don't get. Had we won three or four more, we actually could stop some of this wrecking ball. But we can't. That probably explains the trend that is probably starting to emerge. Right now, according to right-of-center RCP, Democrats are actually ahead of Republicans by one point. It is way too early, with too few polls. But if we had to jump to stupid conclusions, like you like to do, Democrats were tied in one poll in January, and lead in both polls in March. Again, way too early. But the reaction to the treason and stupidity and cruelty and wrecking is well underway. Even though it is just getting started. You live in a homophobic kleptocracy. So that excuses your stupidity and lack of understanding. But not your loyalty to a murderous guy who hates Gays, and Ukrainians, and democracy.

Again, you are very good at being loyal to Genocide Man, and stupid. You are telling us you believe what Putin and ChatGPT tells you. And you wonder why we think you are a fool?

Again, you are stupid and loyal. Why? Will Putin take your DNA sample if he kills or jails you for being Gay? You actually just confirmed the article you are trying to refute. That article says 11,000 Ukrainians. Forbes says "possibly close to 15,000 in all." The main point is they apparently succeeded in their objective of fucking up Russia's offensive last year. But, it is a new year. The insolent pig Trump has the blood of many dead Ukrainians on his filthy traitorous hands, because last year for political purposes he got his loyal Republican lapdogs in Congress to stab Ukraine in the back by withholding aid. Now our narcissistic traitor is actively stabbing Ukraine and NATO and our allies in the back, and empowering Putin and Xi. So even if you are loyal and stupid to Genocide Man, you should be extremely happy.

You love being loyal and stupid, don't you? I do appreciate that, unlike our dumb yapping dog, you are not actively trying to make us more stupid by posting dishonest Tik Tok videos where people actually repeat things they say are just rumors, and then ask others to pass it along. I think you do believe what Genocide Man tells you is true. You are loyal and stupid. Does Genocide Man take DNA samples of the Gays he kills and jails? Is that what you are afraid of, that makes you so obedient to him?

Thanks for posting that very informative article. Here's the sad part to me. I expected Trump to be a boorish idiot, like in the first season. And I figured, like in season one, he would instinctively attack NATO and the EU and other alliances that do not bow down to him and kiss his narcissistic ass. But I really did not expect betrayal. I suppose that is my bad, for being naive. As that article notes, Trump already fucked Ukraine a year ago by being the political force behind all the Republican delays in getting support to them. But that was not visible. Now his betrayal of America and our allies is right out in the open. It's increasingly everyone in the world against the US, with cause. And the insolent pig is too narcissistic to realize Putin and Xi are against him, too. And all he is doing is stabbing America in the heart every fucking day, while the piggish stupid man empowers Putin and Xi. What a fucking miserable disgrace! Ugh!

The insolent pig Trump is a racist. What a shocker. But he was racist before it was cool!

Wow. You really captured my inner grace and beauty. If I do say so myself. Sisters, always! 💗💗💗

Hope I don't sexist. But a purple haired drag queen is ALWAYS smarter than a dumb blonde!

I won't post the interview, because he is as boring as me and the idea is simple. Larry Summers is making the rounds of legacy media saying the chances of a recession have gone up from maybe 10 % to close to 50 %. And he says unless Trump changes course, things will get worse. One way or the other, bad shit is happening and going to grow. And Trump and MAGA will own it. And the polls reflect that already. It will be ironic, in a way, if that happens. My own nagging doubt about my hero Allan Lichtman last year was that the polls kept saying a lot of people feel like we are in a recession. Even though we are not. I think Lichtman just missed that, or misread it. So it will be ironic, and tragic, if Trump won by promising to lower prices during a recession that did not exist. And in his first year or so he raises prices and fires lots of people who voted for him, and brings on a recession.

True. But remember, Sis. Genocide Fan @Moses says I have anger management issues. So maybe I just like the yapping dog's loud and obnoxious behavior. It is kind of cute, I think. @Barknaway doesn't realize Trump's obnoxiousness and boorishness, which he is copying, is a big part of why people don't like him. So all he reminds me everyday is, "This is why people despise Trump and MAGA. And why they will send them packing in 2026 and 2028, just like in 2018 and 2020, after two or four years of this asinine bullshit. Which is way worse and more dangerous than Trump 1.0. And it's true. Even people who despise Trump and held their nose and voted for him as the lesser of evils are being reminded why they don't like Trump. And Zoomers who were in puberty during Trump 1.0 are now learning for the first time what we learned about the asshole and his chaos and stupidity and cruelty in the first season. Like all dogs, our yapping stupid dog just wants to feel like he is obeying his master, more or less blindly and stupidly. Here's a different way of thinking of anger management .............. "build indignation". It is one of my favorite organizing phrases. My college professor Paul Wellstone always talked about building indignation. I have personally used it to take on banks, Fannie Mae, Enron, and lots of corporations, and win lots of big things. Paul's grand prize was building indignation to throw out a decade of Republican dominance in Minnesota and win a US Senate seat. So I am 100 % sure the shit works. In fact, Trump more than anyone proved that building indignation works. Obama was like a professor. Biden took a nap. Trump is the one who is a master at building indignation, especially among the White working class. Stated differently, he is a great huckster and fraud. So our yapping stupid dog is now helping build indignation against Trump, without knowing it. Give him the mike. Let him yap. I'm lovin it.

No. No. No. We will not put @Barknaway down. That is just not an option. I love my cute adorable yapping stupid as fuck dog. Please, everyone. Offer your condolences and be extra kind to @Barknaway today. I mean, it was bad enough when supposedly leftist 538 showed Trump polled net negative a few weeks ago. No question why right wingers celebrate that Nate Silver's old website outlived its usefulness when he left. But now right-of-center if not full on MAGA Real Clear Politics shows the same thing. Horrors! No! I love our stupid yapping fucking dog. We can't put him down. He is so adorable, with his videos no one watches and what not! Please be kind to him! Pet him! Give him a treat. We will just have to develop a strategy to make sure Trump does not get more unpopular on our own. Because, just between us, our yapping dog is quite stupid and facile. And a little homophobic. Let's address the problems. The latest YouGov poll seems to spotlight the issues. 1. Since January 2025, has the inflation rate: 48 % gone up 27 % stayed the same 6 % gone down So Trump promised to lower prices, but they are going up. Let's see. How about we lower taxes for billionaires and cut Medicaid and Medicare? Maybe throw in a free Tesla for MAGA billionaires? That should solve the problem, right? Our yapping dog would no doubt agree. 2. Would you support or oppose the following: imposing a 25 % tariff on goods imported from Canada. 31 % support 54 % oppose This prove two things. First, Trump had an overwhelming mandate for tariffs when fewer than 50 % of Americans voted for him. They just forgot. Dumb Americans! Second, most people are stupid when they believe tariffs will increase inflation. Trump knows better! So clearly we need more tariffs, right? Our stupid yapping dog will no doubt agree. I could go on forever. It seems like Trump has a mandate to do all kinds of things people don't want or like. So if we just do those things, he will soon be more popular. Right?

Do me a favor and call me schizo. Okay? And I still want my fucking AI picture! But you will like this. Because it is mafia language. And Putin and Trump are both like murderous, greedy mafia thugs. So I have been called a "hit man" which I take as a compliment. This is true. Is that worse than having anger management issues? And the woman who called me a "hit man" was called a "hit man" by her husband on a very fun walk we had. True. And that woman is one of the best LGBTQ organizers in the world, even though she is Straight and married. True. In fact, were I Straight, I might have married her. True. And she is close to the US Gay mafia, which does exist. True. Is that enough mafia for you? Sadly, this is not like the Russian mafia. The US Gay mafia does not kill people, empower oligarchs, or do what thugs like Putin tell them to do. They elect good Gay governors (e.g. Jared Polis in Colorado) and win things like same sex marriage. Sucks, huh? If we could only all live in Homophobe Genocide World! My Straight friend is particularly good at hugs, love, and warmth. Truth be told, that is not my strong suit, especially as an organizer. I am good at Rules For Radicals, Alinsky, and using confrontation to win big things. But my Straight friend is tough as nails when she needs to be. Which is why her husband, who would know, called her a hit man. But, to your point, I can be a schizo. As an organizer, I was often a hit man. To my MAGA-like Trump loving niece, who I love to travel with, I just try to be kind and loving. Even though I do believe some of what she thinks is false, shallow, and kind of repugnant. Anyhoo, thanks for the compliments. I am sorry you live in homophobic Genocide World. And I want my picture!

Oh, and by the way, this would cause a tiny little inflation problem too. I sort of view this as above my pay grade. But some of the people talking about the implications of a debt crisis talk about things like 25 % inflation. It sound scary and unimaginable. But Dalio's point is at some point the printing press can't just keep printing more money. The Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget estimated last year when he was running that Trump's projected budget deficit would be something like 9 % of GDP, maybe even 10 % if I recall right. It was a projection last year, and it is all being haggled over right now. But I think we know for sure we will go in exactly the opposite, and wrong, direction, of where Dalio correctly says we need to go. Trump will give a fortune to billionaires, which will help make Trump the king of bankrupting the US.

I know this. I'm fine with Andy Beshear or Rahm Emanuel being POTUS and moving the Democratic Party back to the center, and a majority. 2028 is a long way away. But it is already clear from what guys like Beshear and Emanuel that Democrats in power got the memo. But I want a pound of flesh. And I want it to be Elon Musk's cruel, child abusing, senior-hating, megalomaniac ass. This cruel abusive lying fuck needs to have every single fucking penny he gets from the government stripped away from him. I don't want oligarchs in America. This man does not deserve one fucking penny of my taxpayer money. When Democrats are back n control, this man needs to be stripped of every penny the fraudster, and abuser of his own queer daughter, gets from the federal government.

This is Reagan 2.0, without the political power of Reagan. The whole game back then was they were only cutting "waste, fraud, and abuse" from programs. So Democrats kept asking where is the waste, fraud, and abuse? The Reaganomics who wanted to cut taxes for the rich always said it existed, but they never found it. Here's the thing. Reagan did win in a landslide. Twice. Trump did win twice. But the first time was only because the US was a slave nation, so we have this fucked up thing called the electoral college. That is why Trump won in 2016. He lost the popular vote by millions in 2016. Okay, so he won the popular vote in 2024. But not by much. Not even a majority. So he has no real mandate, other than to lower prices. And he ain't doing that. Which is why his approval rating is dropping like a knife already. Maybe our yapping dog is trying to hide that fact by barking incessantly, and uselessly.

Sheesh! I ask for something really simple and I get this. I want my fake AI picture of me laughing at your weak, genocide-loving ass. I asked you two times: have you ever once supported LGBTQ rights in Russia? The answer is no. You are a weak, timid man who supports genocide. I'm not telling you to go get jailed or murdered by Genocide Man. But what right does living in homophobic Genocide World where Genocide Man kills or jails Gays like me give you to call me a homophobe for calling Putin the murderous homophobic piece of shit that he is? You are a weak, pathetic man. I want my Ai picture of me laughing at your weak pathetic ass. Can you just do that one thing?

I wrote a whole paragraph on Genocide Man and his piece of shit sidekick Trump. Of course you don't agree with it. So all you got is "homophobe". Seriously. I want my AI image of me laughing at your weak, pathetic ass. In addition to being a Putin loving man, a Genocide backer, and a fool, you apparently have a reading comprehension problem. And, of course, no comprehension whatsoever of LGBTQ rights, LGBTQ organizing, or LGBTQ anything. And now suddenly you're the judge and jury on homophobia? Coming from RUSSIA - Genocide World - and defending Putin? You're a complete fool. Putin would jail or kill me and my friends if we tried to do what we have done in Russia. And YOU, weak fool, are lecturing me about homophobia? That's not anger issues. That's comedy. I am laughing at what a fool you are. Thanks for the laugh. Go make some AI images of me laughing at what a weak, genocide defending fool you are. You did not answer my question. Have you ever ever once publicly fought for LGBT rights in Russia? I would love to hear how. I don't think you have. I think you are a weak, fearful man who will get on the internet, defend genocide, and fight for nothing. But your AI tool is mostly right. I do have a background in political activism and LGBTQ rights organizing. Thank you for acknowledging I actually fought for things like same sex marriage. And you are just a weak fool who supports Putin and his genocide. I have no idea why that qualifies you to call me a homophobe. But go ahead. It makes me laugh. You've also done a great job over a series of posts teaching me how emotionally ignorant AI currently is. Every time you post what AI thinks it knows, it reveals some basic ignorance. I do view winning same sex marriage as the political organizing win of my lifetime. Even though I was a nobody volunteer, in an ocean of well-meaning volunteers. So AI, and you, missed my whole point of me being one little ant in an army of millions of powerless ants all over the globe - but not including YOU, weak man, or Russia. What you don't get about the LGBTQ experience, and how we won a long fight for same sex marriage and equality, is that millions of Gay men and lesbians and allies all over the world opened their hearts, told their stories, and changed all of human history. Except in Russia, of course. This is something a weak fool like you can not understand. You have never experienced this kind of love, or unity, or power, or transformation. And you never will. And you ask whether I have principles? What a weak, pathetic fool you are. So if all you got is defending genocide and calling me a homophobe, go ahead. I want my AI image of me laughing at the weak fool you are. This is hilarious!
