    They’re all melting down…

    MTG called Laura Loomer racist and demanded she take a tweet down because “president trump doesn’t support racism”.

    They literally don’t know what to do and all it took was putting a regular human barely under retirement age next to trump and her just existing.

      The scary thing is that, despite not knowing what to do, they still have a realistic chance of winning. Which is causing me to melt down…

    Wow, that’s pretty damning. I’m no “Hot Karl” Rove fan, but he was the preeminent Neocon strategist, and no dummy. For him to slam the orange one like that…

        Honestly pretty tired of the people who helped create a world that would lead to this decrying the world they created.

        Nah, fuck him to next Sunday. He is saying it because its politically expedient for him. He can still eat shit. Jon Stewart has it right. They can all fuck right the fuck off.

        The people behind attitudes like this are not to be trusted. When they show you who they are, believe them the first time.

        The aide said that guys like me were ‘in what we call the reality-based community,’ which he defined as people who ‘believe that solutions emerge from your judicious study of discernible reality.’ […] ‘That’s not the way the world really works anymore,’ he continued. 'We’re an empire now, and when we act, we create our own reality. And while you’re studying that reality—judiciously, as you will—we’ll act again, creating other new realities, which you can study too, and that’s how things will sort out. We’re history’s actors…and you, all of you, will be left to just study what we do’.

        That’s commonly attributed to Rove and he is describing the firehose of falsehoods.

    Trump said Harris stole his philosophy and political leanings … then one sentence later called her a Marxist.

    So what does that make him then?

      I really wish she called him out on that. “Which is, Donald? Am I stealing your philosophy or am I Marxist?”

      But ABC just moves on to another question before she can respond.

      If they try to RINO Turd Blossom himself, there won’t be enough popcorn in the world for the party fracturing that would represent.

      W’s office has already said neither he nor his wife will comment on how they’re voting this election.

      He didn’t win. He’s avoiding another round because he got his ass beaten so bad he doesn’t want it to happen again. Please america, make it happen it again in November.
