Trump’s officials are quietly concerned about his “blatant criminal behavior.” What took them so long?

It is time to stop examining the chaos and time to do something about it.

I have a source inside the Trump regime who feels, in their own words, “a little disillusioned.” This person says they signed on to the Trump team because of “DEI going too far” and because “woke culture was dividing the country,” but is now concerned about the “blatant criminal behavior” of Donald Trump. Really? His last administration didn’t show you that? Well, OK.

This source first approached me by saying, “I can provide you bonafides to show you I’m serious.” That impressed me because I didn’t think many people inside the Trump regime knew what bonafides were, let alone how to be serious.

This source’s concerns about Trump are indeed legitimate, and deserve to be heard. “Not all of us are buying everything he says,” this person told me. “We understand the problem, but we see no solution. You guys in the press, with very few exceptions, are not trustworthy. Congress can’t be trusted and the judiciary so far hasn’t been able to stop him.”

    People are still trying to push this nonsense that democratic candidates need to appeal to the objectively dumbest people in this country in order to be a viable candidate. Its ridiculous. Red voters are only ever going to vote red. They always have and they always will. Left leaning people in this country outnumber right leaning people by a wide margin (because reality has a left leaning bias). The issue is that dem individuals often just don’t vote when a candidate is put forward who is cowtowing to the right. The right still votes right and the left doesn’t vote. Then we get what we have now. If dems put forward a politician that progressive voters actually want they’ll have a much better chance. And AOC is probably a more well liked dem politician right now (among the left) than anyone else except maybe Bernie. But he’s probably too old at this point. So AOC makes the most sense right now to me and probably anyone else with a brain.

      Feels like this might be the time for a coalition to run as “the freedom party” and basically run on the platform of Bernie but use completely different language. There have been studies showing that most gop voters agree with dem policies when they’re not presented using the buzzwords they’ve been brain washed to immediately reject (eg ACA vs Obamacare).

      All the low info idiots voting against their own interests would hear policies they like, and they can jerk off to the word “freedom”.

      I would take a “Weekend at Bernies” Bernie Sanders over literally any moderate DINO the DNC will push on us. I don’t care if he’s 99 and on a ventilator, put that man in office so we can finally join the rest of the civilized world with universal healthcare.
