Not "trump shouldn't do this because it's what fascist dictators do and we don't want fascism"

What's really sad is growing up the US govt was considered a reliable, if biased, source. That has changed. I'm not from the US but there are usually standards as to where you can quote things from in high school and uni. We are expected to cross verify things that before we didn't need to. This wasn't the case under Obama. It's just difficult to really explain and I don't think most people understand the loss that has taken place.
A prime example of an official government repository that universities no longer trust—and are actively warning researchers to avoid—is the live Data.gov portal and its connected federal databases.
This is just mindblowing.

I'm probably older than you because I remember this as well, but even farther back than during Obama.
Being an American and knowing that you cant trust the governmental sources at all - not just because of biases but literal real information - is surreal. I had a feeling America would probably not stay the world power in my lifetime, but thats because I expected China, the EU, etc, to grow in prominence, not for the US to do a sprint towards becoming a banana republic.

Yeah Good Rx absolutely sucks now. I used to use it all the time when I worked in retail pharmacy, trying to help people who couldn't afford meds, and it was such a great tool 10 years ago. I just recently had to use it for myself and it's borderline unusable, pretty much just a shill to confuse you into buying "plans" to reduce your drug costs.
Pro tip: if you can't afford medication, try an independent mom-and-pop pharmacy. They will be faster, cheaper, and they need and appreciate your business, so they will go above and beyond to help you.

Assuming elections happen and a Democrat wins in 2028, they should keep TrumpTV and just have it be Trump facts 24/7
"Donald Trump was convicted of rape."
"Donald Trump, a failure of a businessman, has declared bankruptcy a shocking 8 times."
"During his second term as President, Donald Trump was subjected to quarterly cognitive tests by doctors over severe and significant concern for his mental faculties."

Not a single post of this on the conservative sub at all lmao. I always peek in there when something stupid like this happens which is often and bro seeing the gaslighting in real time is insane. The news will finally hit and most comments will actually be against it, but you SEE them deleting actual people and then the only comments left are the either paid for bots with talking points or actual idiots.

The Trump Propaganda Network, where beef and grocery prices are low and getting lower, the brown people are our enemies (and so is the rest of the world, by the way) and lower gas prices are right around the corner. Trump can just snap his fingers and make war and poverty and famine go away, and all of your dreams will be happening in just two short weeks. The Trump Propaganda network pays no attention to goalposts. Things are as Trump says they are, and if you disagree, stay tuned because soon you’ll be dragged from your homes for dissent. Some of your neighbors will report on you, perhaps even some of those children.
Fucking vote.

Can you imagine how many Conservative heads would spontaneously combust if they learned that Obama started his own network where only positive coverage of him was allowed?
