    I hate on the Tories a lot but I’m glad they’re not the Republicans.

    EDIT: To be very clear: you don’t gotta hand it to them.

      There’s a faction that wants to emulate the Republicans: Badenoch, Braverman, Truss, to name a few.

        Oh, 100%. The America-brained fools and dupes have all too much influence, but most of the MPs, members and voters of the Tories also hate Trump. Bear in mind they elected Badenoch out of sheer stupidity rather than conviction, and when they forced the invidious choice of Badenoch v. Jenrick on themselves, they picked the less Trumpy of the two.

    Why does everyone forget about the Steele Dossier and the Muller Report? How fucking dense are we collectively that we cannot see this clearly?

    I’m so exhausted by all of this.

        He has a cult like grip and it’s scary. Supporters seem to just believe what their version of the news says. My friend went from "Mueller exonerated him!"to “largely exonerated him” to “MUELLER WAS WORKING FOR THE DEMS”.

      People often dont believe you when you tell them things they make up their own little narrative to make themselves feel better.

        The question for me is why didn’t our intelligence services - who want to spy on everybody all the time - understand the risks and inform former governments to prepare?

        How do you know they didn’t?
