Did you read any part of his stance on any topic? The point is to get rid of the slumlords and billionaire developers building essentially vacant lots so normals can live. He makes 142K. I make $161K and absolutely could not afford to live in NYC without roommates at the current median rent here.

While “underage girls” is indeed factual (if redundant), it seems comparatively dehumanizing to categorize children not by who they are, but rather in terms of their ability to consent to sex. (They are under the age of what? “The age of fuckability” is how it reads to many.)

Right? And all of Hitler’s tenets are clearly present (expressed using the same language used by Trump, Vance, Hegseth, et al) in his & his generals’ early essays & other writings, if one bothers to read them. Not that I can recommend more such driveling ad nauseam.
