    The most important thing is that they're loyal to the wanna-be dictator.

    Ahhhhhhhhhhh. My Koiné Greek vocab list:

    Kalos- good, beautiful.
    Kakos- evil, bad, wrong.

    What a blast from ole, and I mean ole, pb's past. 50 years this year.

    Yup. The whole Swamp will be using that second adjective as adjective, adverb, noun, verb, vocative.

    This is going to be sooooooo much fun.

    Eat kaka, SwampEnablers. Keehee ha!

    Eat kaka, SwampEnablers. Keehee ha!

    Talking to yourself is the first sign you're going crazy.

    curt- so you're talking about the pedojoe administration. Thanks for that.

    I'd really like you to show me which political adversary trumpster arrested and went after in court. Which group trumpster used the law to put them on the terrorist watch list in violation of the PATRIOT Act.

    You can either answer that here, or start your own thread. I also want FACT. I really know it's hard for you, and I might ask for the section of law you're referring to.


  5. by Indy! on December 2, 2024 5:18 pm

    You can't arrest someone unless they broke the law. Hence, the Orange Skidmark could NOT arrest Hillary - but the Ds COULD arrest the Orange Skidmark. There's your difference right there, Old Dud - it's called "the law". You should have your wife (or more likely - mommy) read you up on it.


  6. by oldedude on December 2, 2024 5:35 pm
    So list to me the charges and cite the laws that could be brought to court. Not the fictional laws you've employed before. Because they're stoopid.


  7. by oldedude on December 2, 2024 5:56 pm
    curt- Since your such an elitist prick and look down at everyone else, I'm wondering about this. Isn't this ONE OF THE MAIN ISSUES with people believing you're an elitist PRICK? This seemed to be a major piece of the vote. I mean, you just PROVED their vote to be valid. I just wonder when or "If" you're actually learn that elitist pricks will not win elections with the people you hate sooooo fucking much.

    If your distain of a group of people is so fucking recognizable, then you'll lose forever. Not that I mind that, because I (and the rest of the working class) hate the elitist pricks. So do what you want, but don't be a butt hurt little bitch about it. Grow up and be at least a delicate "man."

    On the other side, I welcome you to use the word. Clearly, it will change elections until you quit. When people call you a "prick" you'll know what they mean. I will every time I can. And if you don't care about your family? don't expect me (or people like me) sot save any of them. They are your spawn. 'nough said.

    Interesting link below courtesy of Google Trends. "Kakistocracy" hasn't been searched for or used often over the past five years in the United States. However right about the time Trump announced that Matt Gaetz was his pick for Attorney General, and he named a few others like RFK Jr. and Tulsi Gabbard to his cabinet, kakistocracy spiked as a search term. Coincidence? I don't think so.

    I think it's more about butt hurt sheeple that feel they're a victim of their own lives.


  10. by HatetheSwamp on December 3, 2024 2:37 am

    I just want to point out that congregants in the woke Swampcult simply can't not be sanctimonious.

    Inauguration Day is still nearly seven weeks off and they're already on fire. These are going to be four fun years.


  11. by meagain on December 3, 2024 10:12 am
    You can add its close kin to that, Ochlochcracy: Mob Rule. They go hand in hand and an ochlocracy usually preceded a kakistocracy. Thinking back to a date in January, you would not be far wrong in thinking that is what has happened.


  12. by HatetheSwamp on December 3, 2024 10:22 am

    Ochlocracy. What Cackles Mckneepads actively supported in the summer of 020.


  13. by Indy! on December 3, 2024 10:42 am

    J6, Trumper. You and the rest of the MAGAts supported overthrowing the country. That includes the military "expert".


  14. by oldedude on December 3, 2024 11:15 am
    wrongagain- That's your "buttie" Indy, an avowed Anarchist. Just hates everything in the US but doesn't have the balls to leave.


  15. by Indy! on December 3, 2024 11:17 am

    There's no way around that one - that's why the MAGAts don't like talking about it and still hilariously try to claim it was that eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeevil "antifa!" that tried to overthrow the Capital bldg.

    You support insurrectionists, OD. You and your party of MAGAts are the only REAL threat to the country.


  16. by oldedude on December 3, 2024 11:20 am
    So everything I said is true. You just responded with "whataboutisms"


  17. by HatetheSwamp on December 3, 2024 12:11 pm

    "There's no way around that one - that's why the MAGAts don't like talking about it and still hilariously try to claim it was that eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeevil "antifa!" that tried to overthrow the Capital bldg."

    Really?

    Try providing a trustworthy link to that Porky Pie.


  18. by Indy! on December 3, 2024 1:59 pm

    OD has said it on this board more than once. A dollar says you have too, Trumper.


  19. by oldedude on December 3, 2024 6:00 pm
    That's a lie.


  20. by Donna on December 7, 2024 7:33 am

    od - Is that ^ one of the posts you're claiming Curt deleted?


  21. by oldedude on December 7, 2024 7:42 am
    nope.
