    It’s more accurate to say dems turned into his version of republicans than to say he’s turned into a dem.

        “… I’m not wearing a tie at all.”

        People say this and then you look at voting records in congress and you see them fall in line when the chips are down. Party affiliation and loyalty is what gets you reelection funds and spots on committees, there’s a lot of tangible and intangible pressure applied from the color of the tie.

      Schwarzenegger ain’t a republican or a dem.

      Anyone who says “screw your freedom”, unironically and publicly, in a time of crisis, isn’t an American.

        There’s priority to this stuff. As they say, your freedom to swing your fist ends at my face. Being forced to wear a mask does infringe on freedom, but being forced to contract a potentially deadly disease because you can’t put on a stupid mask is a greater infringement. See also: you don’t have the freedom to drive recklessly, you don’t have the freedom to set off fireworks anywhere you want, you don’t have the freedom to assault people.

      • Anyone who says “screw your freedom”, unironically and publicly, in a time of crisis, isn’t an American.

        Lol, anyone accusing someone as being un-American for exercising their constitutional right to free speech is both a hypocrite and an idiot.

      • If you still support an orange man baby traitor who attempted to overthrow democracy and install a fascist dictatorship after losing an election, you sure as FUCK aren’t an American anymore.

        So the alleged lieing at the first arrest about the weight he claimed its actually true? Never checked myself after hearing it the first time.

      Arnold is an expert on fitness. He’s taking a verbal stab at Trump because Trump clearly doesn’t want to be honest about his own weight. So Arnold is offering his expert advice to Trump about how to actually drop weight instead of lying about your weight like Trump did when he was arrested and processed.

      It’s just a lot like Kim Jong Un or Putin, where he seriously pictures himself looking like Vin diesel. And so do his followers. All those maga flags and political comics actually give him a six pack and make him 6’5. It’s gross and kind of scary.

    When someone lies about easy disprovable things, and shows how insecure about unimportant things they are, they disqualify themselfes from important decision making for all of us. And reasonable people get it. Maturing is on the inside. So yes its important. Sadly.

    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    You’re going to be in great shape,’” Schwarzenegger quipped during a Monday appearance on ABC’s “Jimmy Kimmel Live!”

    The dig from California’s former GOP governor — a reference to the 91 criminal charges that Trump’s facing in his multiple indictments — came after Kimmel asked Schwarzenegger about the 45th president’s arrest records.

    When he turned himself in at Georgia’s Fulton County jail in August over charges related to the 2020 election, Trump’s weight was recorded at 215 pounds.

    “Do you think it is possible that he weighs 215 pounds?” Kimmel asked the former bodybuilder, who served on the President’s Council on Physical Fitness and Sports in the 1990s.

    Kimmel noted that Schwarzenegger no longer “[seemed] like a Republican” due to his longtime activism to fight climate change and his views on other hot-button issues.

    Saying he sometimes touches down in Washington to lobby both Democrats and Republicans to fund after-school programs, Schwarzenegger exclaimed, “I think what we need is really leadership to bring people together and to teach both parties not to look at the other side as the enemy.”


    The original article contains 486 words, the summary contains 174 words. Saved 64%. I’m a bot and I’m open source!

      I think what we need is really leadership to bring people together and to teach both parties not to look at the other side as the enemy.

      Looking in from the outside (another country) it seems like republicans are very much acting like the enemy (of the democrats, the people, a livable planet, common sense, …) in every possible way and no amount of leadership or compromise will get them to act in good faith.

        Yeah as an American I can disagree with people about a lot civilly. Republicans are not acting in good faith or towards acceptable goals. There was once room for considering them not the enemy but that time has passed. If they want to stop being my enemy they can stop being republicans. They’re fortunate enough that the trait that brings them enmity can be discarded.

      Yeah, party affiliation is way more important than who a person is or how they live their life!

      • How he lives his life, exactly. Living his life, supporting the Republican party with his money, messaging, and his vote. Fuck him. To the extent he seems decent and positive, he’s a fraud, because his commitment is to a party that is shitty and negative and an existential threat to democracy.
