Honestly a big difference this year is that many of us warned the groups that were going to be affected by the travel ban that it was coming back if Trump got back into power, and those groups proceeded to not support Kamala Harris, so a lot of us don't have the energy for it.

Hence resignation.

Fury and resignation around the world as Trump's travel ban comes roaring back:

I know it’s become trite, but imagine the outcry if Joe or Kamala were fighting with a billionaire via tweet.

I am very disillusioned with anyone who tried to push Biden out, too.

Voters chose him in a primary. It was cowardly for people to jump on him. Elite white people were all over it.

But I would caution people on going Independent. In many places you can’t vote in a primary and if you’re not her, your voice can be erased.

So that was their concept of a plan - throw people off their health insurance and just let them die. Very in character for the GOP.

This is yet another thing people who refused to vote for Democrats have wrecked. Whether your reason was immigration or Obamacare wasn’t good enough or Kamala didn’t visit you personally or eggs, now we’re just getting what we fought to get taken away.

Dumb. Sorry.

This won’t make Jews safer, but attacks on higher education by the Trump administration will make America dumber.

I voted for Kamala Harris. So did 79% of Jews as a whole.

@TonyStark It started off okay and went downhill as soon as people figured out they could spew disinformation and bots showed up. This platform used to do a decent job of dealing with that. Now it definitely doesn’t.

Pro-tip: if you’re talking about someone on this platform, DMs don’t work like they do on Twitter and when if mention them with an “@“, they’re tagged right in there and can read everything you’re saying. LOL.

I said this the other day, but not a single person owes anyone on this platform a conversation.

If someone doesn’t like what you’re saying and they block you, that’s your problem.

And going on in the replies afterwards makes you look psychotic.

@TonyStark That’s great, Tony.

Have a good whatever you’re doing. 🍹

Good things: my daughter aced all her finals.

The Pittsburgh Penguins hired a new coach and he looks good.

My daughter made it into a competitive quality summer travel softball team as a clutch 3rd baseperson who can cover some other positions.

I’m leaving for vacation and have no plans to touch social media for awhile.

Quick shout out to the “both parties are the same” crowd who are always wrong but think they’re so right and likely carried around a bunch of propaganda they got influenced by to fuck everyone over.

Thanks so much!

Would be great if all those reporters (not Jen Bendery obviously) whose job it is to cover things that might affect people would spend even a scintilla of the amount of time on stuff like this as they did on Kamala Harris and her McDonald’s job.

@TonyStark

No, if the state fails there will be a bunch of strong men-types doing their best to be the new Trump. Forget socialism, that's a fantasia.

Have a good look at the Sudan, or Somalia, or fictionally, Mad Max. That's what a failed stated looks like.

Given the number of guns in America, it's a frightening prospect.
