All the posts from mid-late 2015 dismissing Trump as a joke are ridiculously hilarious right now to me.

It's a shame /pol/ is cowed these days, I'd have loved to seen their reaction unbridled.

[Cruxador]

You're my only hope Obi-Wan Kasichobi They did make a Star Wars reference themselves though.

Is this the Onion?

/pol/ is cowed these days,

They are?

I hardly keep up with them or anything, but when I last paid attention they had new mods or something. Granted, that's also before moot sold out, so things could have reverted.

Damnit, we should really colonize another planet fast, for people who want to flee earth once Trump gets elected.

[PTTG??]

This is good news. Trump cannot win the Presidency, but he will drive liberals to the polls like never before.

Those liberals will vote against trump, and they'll generally vote for Democrats in other races too.

The congress will turn blue.

Hillary will nominate Supreme Court Justice Barack Obama.

And if you stand in sufficiently conservative states just as the news breaks, you'll be able to hear conservative brains popping like popcorn.

They just migrated when newmods took over, then regular one went back to its old habits (somehow with lower quality) whilst the exodites either died out/were v&/migrated to unlisted chan/pol/s
4chan /pol/ at this point is diluted to edgy normies, I nearly died when I saw CNN debating whose memes had more swag, and when their Bernie bro was done they had an ebin resident /pol/ troll talk about how his memes had the most swag. The sheer unfiltered normyness did make me lament, for lo what little claim they had to edginess was rounded like a bowling ball. It's basically just nsfw at this point
At least the great migrates make OC, though there may be another wave coming due to ddossing/shut down

In short, a mess, but luggage lad did it for free

And then what?

Then glorious socialist state, comrade.

He's said multiple times that he has no interest in a SCOTUS position and would certainly love to take a break.

As long as useful idiots get KGB'd again this is a better world

[Strife26]

President Obama is utterly unqualified as a Supreme Court nominee.

[Egan_BW]

But it would be awesome, comrade.

No, satire is dead and everyone is secretly coming up with silly nicknames to reinforce the mystique of their real choices as much as possible.

Ugh, this pretentious new-fangled style of name-calling is just ironic hipster nonsense, not true political satire! Indeed, satire is in its death throes and the art of funny names is in a neglected and sorry state at present, to the extent that it has all but lost its former status as a legitimate branch of political science. According to the classical standards, a real funny name is not merely "clever" and insulting in a cheap, self-congratulatory fashion: it has to be topical and witty, yet accessible to wider audiences lacking knowledge of memes and masturbatory in-jokes. It has to be effortlessly elegant, yet incisive enough to cut to the very core of the target's being – to expose his or her shameful innermost substance to the righteous mockery of the world. Above all, it has to be based on an astute analysis of the target's political history and the present condition of the political system at large: a skilled nickname-artist can cram a dissertation's worth of political commentary within the space of a few syllables!

Here, let me show you how it's really done:

Again, he's said that he has no interest in that kind of thing.
