That’s accurate.
I definitely feel this.
@BrianJopek I have literally been there and yes.
@BrianJopek THE WHOLE DNC is trapped in the back seat screaming FFS were all going to die

@BrianJopek

In other words, feeling like being the only adult in the - car ;-)

@BrianJopek

moma actually hates you all and hope to receive big insurance payout once the crash happens

@BrianJopek
Yup, on point πŸ₯²
@BrianJopek i notice that the democratic party is nowhere in this analogy.
@fishidwardrobe
I think that's the Dad?
@BrianJopek
@xinit @BrianJopek well, no, Dad is obviously Trump

@fishidwardrobe When was the last time the Democrats were allowed to drive, though, even drunkenly?

@BrianJopek

@BrianJopek 100%.

One of us needs to yank "Dad's" hands off the steering wheel, yeet him out of the car, and slam on the brakes, hoping against hope that the car will stop before we plunge over that cliff right up ahead there.

@courtcan @BrianJopek

I'm affraid your "father" already hit several of your friends families killing their fathers. There will be a very long time (if ever) before you can see your friends in the eye again. Do not let a drunk drive a car. You can be held accountable for not intervening.

@BrianJopek
And the police won't stop the car because their chief is a friend of the driver.

@BrianJopek Believe me mate, the rest of the world is just as concerned with your 'driver' right now.

In the UK right now, I feel as a European that we're caught between #putin to our East and your lunatic leader to the West.

One is fighting a war on the borders of Europe (not to mention the cyberattacks on our companies and public organisations)
And the other is threatening to invade and annex a European territory to our West (just like Putin)

#trump #chaos

@BrianJopek ah yes. People thinking it's the personnel issue. Ignoring the fact that someone else have written project 2025 describing exactly what is happening and handed it to the guy, that there is an entire administration that is actively participating. The fascist party of republicans is not some scared, beaten wife. Its a co-pilot.
@BrianJopek And those outside of USA feel like we need to get off the highway. Except there are no exits and if there were, what's the probability that the drunk father won't chase after us?

@BrianJopek

It isn't just one maniac at the wheel. The maniac is getting paid to be the Qrazie & so is the mom.

These folks are funding a car crash because they delude themselves that their wealth will insulate themselves from the consequences.

Who are the Biggest Donors?

Who are the biggest donors in the 2024 election cycle? See the details.

@Npars01
Christ-on-a-bike! That's one helluva a list!
Gaol for every one of them, please!

@wellingtonrock

International sanctions would work too.

Paul Singer, the Venezuela warmonger, is no different than Deripaska or the late Prigozhin.

Sanctions on these individuals might just save us from the world war they are fomenting.

@BrianJopek in this story she knows dad is drunk but they are driving to go get drugs
@BrianJopek
not really, the mad clown celebrity ringmaster doesn't own the circus.
He just looks like he's driving the car over the cliff but he's just been enabled to sabotage it whilst the real motivators of chaos for profit push into the abyss.

@BrianJopek

Excellent summary of present....sad.

@BrianJopek
Mom is he Republican party? What is Dad? This metaphor is a mess.
@BrianJopek The only thing I'd change is that the dad is the Republican party and the mom is the Democratic party, trying to calmly suggest that dad maybe not do all the crazy shit and that perhaps she should drive for now, knowing full well that nothing she says will make any difference and tries to get on his good side by cracking open another can of beer for him.
@BrianJopek That's what Ameica has been like for 250 years
