    Stop these ideas. America means the whole continent not USA. Trump just does not get what he is saying.

      He only has room in his head for like 10 words at a time. That’s why he thinks remembering 5 in cognitive tests is a huge victory. It takes half his brain! And the other half is “America” “golf” “China” and “besty Putin.”

    Trump is a freak. People who like him are weirdos. Enough said.

    I cannot wait until this fucker is gone. The arrowhead of American failure was carved by people like Donald Trump.

      Anyone who supports him to the end should have a permanent black mark against them. Treat them like this regime treats ICC judges. No government jobs or funding, no executive level positions, no top secret clearance, nothing that requires some level of trust. That’s the compromise position.

    There are no adults coming to save us. It won’t even be that surprising if this ends up happening. Certainly not becausw it makes a shred of sense, just because this timeline is satire.

    As a born and raised New Mexican, fuck this absolute piece of garbage, and fuck anyone who has voted or is continuing to vote for the convicted rapist and pedophile party. New Mexico is a culturally rich and diverse state, full of traditions going back hundreds, in some cases thousands, of years.

      It’s such a stupid idea because even people who voted for him have New Mexican pride and wouldn’t agree with this change, it’s simply stupid

          Mobs are easier to form when your entire country is the size of a single US state and everyone who wants to participate in the country is within a day of driving to the same location. Your people aren’t less willing to be fucked over by the government. It’s just easier for the small percentage of you who will riot to meet up.

              Decades of no accountability and poor hiring practices have made the police thugs against their citizen peers. Funded by the have nots, while protecting the haves and themselves.

          Eh. Honestly, I think it’s pretty likely both incidents in which someone got “close” were probably false-flags. Orangeboi is a complete coward. I genuinely think he’d piss his pants and run away screaming if it was a real attempt on his life. There are a number of very suspicious points to the rally event in particular.

            So not let perfection be the enemy of good.

            Vance does not have any of the charisma nor the following that Trump has. His ability to coalesce a ruling party is low. It’s why Trump is still in power.

              The bigger issue as I see it is that Trump wants to rule by charisma first. I don’t think Vance particularly gives a shit if people curse his name - meaning that, at the first sign of things getting out of hand, I think he’s more willing to hit the “start killing protestors until the streets are red” button.

            With no charisma or leverage to get anything extreme done. It isn’t their daughter in law that controls the GOP and is able to fund primary challengers.

              You think they’d impeach the younger smarter asshole who wants to hurt their enemies?

              No fucking way. The Republicans want this. Trump is only useful for his distraction otherwise they would have stopped musk.

              Plus it gives them an incumbent to run in 2028 (if they aren’t already planning to run Trumps corpse again).

    Comically, New Mexico acquired its name long before “New Spain” became Mexico. Apparently New Mexico predates Mexico. (By a decent while too).

    Edit ended up reading the article, it is listed in the article further down as well “New Mexico’s name predates the founding of the United States back to the 16th century”

      Mexico made a power move naming itself, knowing New Mexico already existed. “They might be ‘new’ but we’re the og.”

      …

      New Mexico predates the modern country of Mexico, yes.

      But when Spanish Conquistadors first reached the Valle de Mexico, in the 1520s, it was the most densely populated urban area on the planet at over a million people.

      That’s why New Mexico includes “new”, because it wasn’t the original.
