I heard a lot of people talking shit about him starting a meme coin and that it makes him just as corrupt as Trump. And I don’t think that’s entirely unfair or unjustified, but at the same time I feel like that’s the point. If the president can do it, why can’t a governor? If it’s wrong for one then it’s wrong for the other. If it’s no big deal then it’s no big deal for either one.
If you think what he’s doing is bad then do something about it. He’s not a great person and I personally do not like him, but he’s making a good point and basically saying “come at me bro” because he wants them to fight back so he can throw it back at them.
I’m not saying that making a meme coin is right when “my guy” does it. I’m saying it should be wrong across the board and that’s the point he’s trying to make.
The president shouldn’t do that, the governor shouldn’t do that, this only normalizes Trump. He’s not making a good point, he’s doing a self serving grift disguised as resistance.
And what does helping a grift do to stop that? Who will magically be won over by this? Will this ever make up for the leftists and progressives alienated, or are y’all just hoping we get properly purged by Trump?
One thing is certain: I definitely don’t belong anywhere in America, not because of Trump, but because of the Democrats.
I see your point, but it’s already normalized. The president already had a meeting with crypto bros that paid into his meme coin at the Whitehouse basically saying “hey, come bribe me. America is for sale.” We’re way past the point of no return and playing by the rules simply doesn’t work anymore when the president is breaking the law on a daily basis.
The point I’m trying to make is that you absolutely should be pissed at him and the left if they do this. The point is to be pissed at any politician that does this. The fact that he can even do it is not his fault it’s Trumps. He has literally said, when questioned about this kinda stuff, something along the lines of “if it’s wrong for me to act this way, why can the president?”
I’m afraid this is what it will take. The right gets away with so much of their deplorable behavior because it’s reprehensible and the left for the most part is above that. But that’s Clinton’s line of “they go low, we go high”. It’s not fucking working. I just hope if people on the left do start to dip their toes into some of this deplorable shit, it’s much more calculated to not hurt innocent people and they stop once the right has been crippled by their very own tactics.
I think the difference in this case is that this is a self-serving action. Trump breaks the law or violates the Constitution to benefit himself and his cronies, but if, for example, Joe Biden broke the law to cancel a bunch if student loan debt, I would support that. I dont support what Newsom is doing here. He’s doing the very garbage that has cost Democrats the presidency twice now and will continue to cost them elections in the future.
Which I think is the point. The point is that you are supposed to be upset because it’s an objectively garbage thing to do. And if it is, why is the president allowed to do it?
I wouldn’t follow this man into battle, but so far he’s the only one that has enough balls to call out his bullshit like this. 80% of the politicians in this country are spineless and just waiting for it all to blow over. I’d rather see “fuck you” energy over being passive any day of the week.

He’s not making a meme coin to make money. He’s making it to troll Trump. Just like his social posts.
Disliking his memecoin is missing the point. Disliking his interview with Bannon is what people should be doing.
The president shouldn’t do that, the governor shouldn’t do that, this only normalizes Trump. He’s not making a good point, he’s doing a self serving grift disguised as resistance.
Trump’s already normalized. That’s the problem.

Oh yeah, Democrats are the ones setting up concentration camps and deploying the military to US cities. I forgot.

So it becomes normalized on liberal side? Sure. What a great way to cede the future to feudalism. I really shouldn’t be surprised at this point.

He’s doing what music used to do. Holding a mirror to a corrupt society.
Except there’s actual money involved in what would be an actual scam.

They go low and we get a tunnel boring machine. I’m here for it. My body is ready.
Just as corrupt? Really? Like they’re on the same level of corruption? GTFO
