      Idk how much of this actually matters to real people

      Media overfocuses on tankie or Obamna mustard incident or above but does anyone actually care that much outside of civility lib/right-wing TV ghoul optics media circles? It’s funny I guess

      It’s mostly manufactured imo, people think tankie is cringe cuz the media/electioneering people said it was cringe but is it actually any more nationalistic or military-death-cult-pilled or “trying too hard” in substance than what any other president/president candidate does? freedom-and-democracy

      Examining actual material factors like circumstances of class rule and how the capitalist class decides which guy gets to represent them is out of the question, so at best we get OBJECTIVE REASONABLE POLICY DISCUSSION jagoff or at worst completely vibes based politics like Gerald Ford lost Texas cuz he ate a tamale the wrong way :) (these not necessarily mutually exclusive ofc) to justify what happens after the fact while obscuring the class power behind it

        yeah it’s a political dog and pony show to obscure the bipartisan death merchants and racketeer imperial and neocolonial monopolists behind the state structures. And how shallow it is says a lot about society SOCIETY

        Maybe this comment will be clearer: https://hexbear.net/comment/5466284

    I was always told it’s that he pardoned Nixon, but this probably didn’t help at all.

      It’s funny but back then (if this story is true) the voters chose not to vote for Ford because of a goof, and today the people voting for Trump are loud, vehement and outspoken in defense of his goofs; both are opposites and yet both are also really, really stupid.

    So many cultural minefields to cross…anyone remember the George HW Bush incident with the grocery scanner? That was blamed in part for his loss to Clinton.
