They have a ‘Hate America’ rally that’s scheduled for October 18 on the National Mall,” the House speaker, Mike Johnson, said on Fox News on Friday. “It’s all the pro-Hamas wing and, you know, the antifa people. They’re all coming out.”
On 18 October, tens of millions of people in the streets, peacefully exercising the democratic rights that the Trump regime is laboring to eliminate, will give the lie to Maga’s hallucinatory network of bomb-throwing traitors. No Kings will show America who the real haters are.
I like how Meidas pointed out that little Mikey couldn’t even say the actual name of the rallies, since being against kings is kinda America’s brand identity.
This is the party that cannot even say the fucking name of the Democratic Party though, so…shrug. They’ve been saying it incorrectly for 70+ years because they are fucking children. Again, Murc’s Law - they are expected, to a one, even at the top of their party, to behave like brats, but the Democratic Party is expected to be the adults at all times. Just imagine if the Democratic Party started to say “Publican Party” at every opportunity, from the President all the way down to liberal talking heads, and no one were to question them about it?

man, that ‘democrat party’ bullshit is one of the very few digs that actually bugs me. and it’s been on for so long that i think there’s a whole generation that doesn’t know the actual name.
i tried ‘republic party’ for a while, but as you can see, i failed to make fetch happen.
It annoys me, too, and probably because it’s been going on for 70+ years (multi-generational at this point) and gets zero push back. From people that sure as hell know better and are in a position to ask why Republicans cannot use the right name. Just question it. Embarrass them. Keep asking why adult leaders in their party are being so childish - do they even know the right name?
It’s one thing if it’s people online goofing or people on the street, whatever. I do it quite frequently and come up with nicknames for the opposition. But I’m not a politician and I’m not a talking head. I have no platform and no power and no prominence.
How an entire party can get away with it and have zero commentary on it in any meaningful way is really wild.
