I was struck by the Trump Always Chickens Out (TACO) moniker, as in addition Shumer and many of the Dems deserve a similar tag line. Few seem to be standing up during this upheaval nor being the leaders we need. They also seem to be chickens. Newsom, AOC, Sanders, Buttigieg, etc seems to at least be speaking out if not acting with an appropriate response.

Possibly ones that come to mind:

  • Chuck Shumer: CLUCK (Chuck Lacks Urgency, Caves, Kowtows), or CHILL (Chuck Hides In Low-stakes Limbo)
  • Hakeem Jefferies: JELLO (Jefferies Evades Leadership, Lacks Oomph, HAKEEM (Hesitate, Avoids,Keeps Evading Effective Moves)

Anyone else have some examples, recommendations, or discussions points?

    But yes. Please tell me how I’m an Ideologue.

    I don’t have to.

    You said it yourself, you want conservatives in charge. Going back 40 years, we’ve seen them time and time again as active participants in this march to fascism. Apparently you just didn’t mind it when the targets were a generation of young gay men or Muslims or immigrants. Now it’s becoming harder to deny that fascism is coming for you personally.

      That’s all well and good.

      But if enough of people voted for Kamala, we would have been out of this mess. And that’s the honest truth.

      And now I see a topic about people making fun of Chuck and Jeffries. Okay, lets go see where that goes in a few years. Yall are fucked and can’t even build your own political coalitions or support your own fucking guys.
