Sleazeball the 1st will guarantee Sleazeball the 2nd won't move more than Dulcolax. Republican party is D.O.A. from now on.
Everyone is terrified of anything with an 'R' next to it. Won't admit they'll not vote or go for Dems; but the fear is real.

Really, the Governor there is a threat, so theyâre using the same tactics of âdrinks the blood of babiesâ or ânot born in the USâ and so forth. Itâs pathetic AND it works on the bumpkins.

Of course
1) there is no "war on Christmas"
2) you have always been able to wish someone a Merry Christmas
3) no one apologizes for being white (despite Frank Zappa's wish)
4) crap like this is just a fake persecution and content fear mongering that is endemic in the GOP message. ("They're your enemies! Only we billionaires are your friends!")
Or ironic in a way different from what you thought.
He's pointing out the presumed virtues the audience represents and with their behaviour, these virtues go out the window simply based upon disapproval of a particular person.
What color is the sky on your planet, kurt? Seriously.
Vice President JD Vance gets booed at The Kennedy Center "This video should challenge us all to commit to making the Kennedy Center a place where everyone is welcomed," writes Kennedy Center President Richard Grenell, a Trump appointee who is also the special presidential envoy for special missions, on X.
"It troubles me to see that so many in the audience appear to be white and intolerant of diverse political views. Diversity is our strength. We must do better. We must welcome EVERYONE. We will not allow the Kennedy Center to be an intolerant place."
I thought "intolerant",, "welcome", and especially "diversity" were prohibited words under this administration. Irony is still alive.
Sounds sarcastic to me.

JD Vance on CNN this morning with Dana Bash, just openly admitting the stories he and Trump made up the stories they are pushing regarding Haitian immigrants.
When Bash (sort of) calls him on it, Vance said "If I have to create stories to get the media to pay attention then thatâs what Iâll do!"
Even Bash, who is MAGA adjacent was nonplused and there was a long moment of dead air where she tried to get Vance to see the absurdity of what he just said.
Instead Vance just doubled down on it.
Vance claims he and Trump have to "create stories" about migrants eating cats and dogs "so that the American media actually pays attention to the suffering of the American people."
Basically, if I have to lie and demonize innocent people and they are then targeted for violence by my hateful unhinged followers, I will. Collateral damage. So what? Because that's what it takes to scare Republicans into voting for me.
I don't care how you slice it, that's right out of the Josef Goebbels Reich Minister of Propaganda playbook.
It's imbeciles' reasoning. Or major financial fuck-ups.
Money over life, y 'know. It will be a question asked of us:
Are you willing to be a murderer (have you been)?
Future societies will be strict on this, not showing much patience towards you cowboy shootists.
Yes you in need of a peaceful brain-implant!
It's taken me a long time to realize that English is not your primary language.
No they're not. This is dishonest, which is pretty much par for the course with you. The anti-gun types here are screaming in the same way they have always reacted, with each mass shooting. They offer no alternatives but their very own position of banning the offending weapon and restricting legal access to buying firearms. They don't discuss what might happen to the likely incidence of school shootings if such a ban were enacted (Oh noes - there's other guns! Hello 3D printed ghost guns ! Oh noes - Europe - mass stabbings! ) They don't discuss the availability of unregistered weapons (also a considerable problem in Canada - guns smuggled in from America). They don't discuss root causes - such as mental illnesses and societal ostracization of the shooters. Their entire focus is on the weapon, and not at all on the shooter. The discussion on mass shooting here is intellectually dishonest, just like you.
This is rich, coming from someone who mostly behaves like his/her muppet avatar.
"The anti-gun types here" are focused on a lot more than America's ready access to guns. I think everyone recognizes that even a ban and seizure on assault-style weanons won't stop mass killings in the US. The root causes for this kind of violence are far deeper than ready access to guns.
That's why "the anti-gun types here" want to go beyond common-sense gun control measures and support more funding for counseling, violence intervention and community services. A mass killing like a school shooting is just the end point in a long string of social and economic problems. As I see it, a mass shooter thinks they've run out of options to improve their lives or get along with others.
People here bring up these shootings to point out how badly broken our society CAN BE. People like you who criticize "anti-gun types" refuse to look at the deeper problems and think that if we just harden our schools (like JD Vance suggested) and arm our teachers, things will be fine. People like you DON'T want to fund psychological counseling or community outreach efforts. People like you things the 2nd Amendment trumps everything else and that our government and society shouldn't impose any responsibility on gun owners.
Root causes ————- make me puke!
As if anything else would be responsible - just say -out of the blue sky- for the killings. Dead bodies everyday from the fucking country that names itself home of the free.
