Voters feel abandoned by both parties but resonate with Trump’s anti-establishment rhetoric and perceived authenticity.
If their impression of Trump includes a perception of authenticity, these people are well and truly lost. I have nothing to say to them, and want nothing to do with them.
That felt a little like trying to evade my mistake. Folks could also not be dicks. (not directed at you)
LOL Yes, the rest of my post history is super consistent with that analysis. /s
You’ll need to see my edit and comment I guess.
Oh I’m an idiot folks I thought that was Jack Smith complaining about the lack of accountability for Trump. My bad!

What can I do to piss them off if I never had any in the first place?

Fucking Republicans. They are literally the party of taking things away and making things worse. I cannot fathom how they have duped tens of millions into believing they are the party trying to help people.
And yes, Dems have their issues too, but R is just rabidly “fuck you I got mine, and double so if you aren’t a white cishet man” at all levels.
As pointed out by others - the DOJ is no saint here, having sat on this information for a century. ALSO part of the problem.
The folks there now get some credit for releasing this. The folks in charge for the past 100 years not so much.
I realize that right up there is a DOJ report, but I read this article in about 2020 and found it at the time to be one of the most horrifyingly complete accounts of what happened that I’d seen.

Not on my 2025 bingo card I’ll admit, but I’m here for it.
DOJ: Police Shooting Family Dogs has Become ‘Epidemic’
Cops in this country kill so many dogs each year that a specialist at the Department of Justice’s (“DOJ”) community-oriented program services office says it has become an “epidemic.” The DOJ estimates that around 25 to 30 dogs are killed by cops every day, with some numbers as high as 10,000 per year. The totals could, in fact, be higher, since most police agencies do not formally track officer-involved shootings involving animals.

Holy shit dude, well fucking played.
Please rest of the world - SHUN Musk and to whatever degree you can, also Trump, exactly like this. Their egos can’t handle it, and your efforts to de-legitimize them both may be one of our most effective weapons to limit the damage they do.
Screenshotting this because I don’t know how to reliably link comments across instances.
Can’t go wrong with Hitchcock.
OK now that I’m bringing out the Hunter Biden’s laptop folks, I’m deleting the comment and posts, not just acknowledging my error. Dear god what have I summoned.
