Humor wasn’t the goal. Making apparent the racism of Vance and Trump’s words was. If repeating back the racism someone else used in order to deride them somehow applies that same racist stigma onto me, I would argue that your priorities are misplaced. If I had directly quoted them and cited the quotation would the reaction have been the same? Because it amounts to the same level of disconnect from the words to me. But whatever. Not a hill I care to die on. I’ll delete it. Didn’t mean to upset anyone.

That was meant to be parody exaggerating the racist shit JD just said and combining it with the racist shit Trump said previously. I didn’t make that clear enough, clearly. This does not reflect my viewpoint whatsoever.

Edit: i didn’t make it clear enough. This is parody combining the racist shit JD just said with the racist shit Trump said previously. In no way does this reflect my actual viewpoint.

But a doctor that totally wasn’t paid off says he was literally the healthiest president in the history of America, so…

Can we stop platforming small insignificant bigots just because they say stupid and awful shit and happen to be somehow tangentially related to Trump or the GOP? This is how these psychos get the notoriety that earns them seats in congress where their bigotry actually matters, ala MTG, Boebert, Gaetz, etc. I had never heard of this lady yesterday, and now I’m seeing multiple national news stories about her aggressive bigotry and indecency. Not only was I happier yesterday, but she was also less electable yesterday because this shit, incredibly, unfortunately, sells on the Right. Fucking stop. Just stop it.

But what kind of donut?

• She definitely needled him. I knew when she talked about all of the inane nonsense he talks about at his rallies and how he exhausts his own supporters so much they leave early during his 90 minute long ramblings that that would piss him off to no end, and sure enough all he could do after that was brag about his rallies and claim no one goes to her rallies. That being said, why in God’s name did ABC let him get the last word on. Every. Single. Talking point? No matter who was talking first, no matter the subject, no matter how off course he was taking the topic, he’d start whining after she finished talking and they’d turn his mic back on and give him more time. If I’m not mistaken they gave him an extra rebuttal one time then tried to restrict Kamala from responding back until she insisted so much that they relented and then they STILL gave Trump another minute to give the last word again! What the hell was that? Tell the fat orange fuck “no”, follow the rules and move on! If he wants to whine about her words, he can eat up time from the next question doing that. Don’t give him more of platform to spout lies unchallenged. He has plenty of that already.

“barely coherent” is being generous. “Rarely coherent” or “almost never coherent” are more accurate.

I mean, “lawyer up before talking to the police” is universally good advice.

There is a kernal of validity to your point, but let’s not pretend like those things are at all the same. The difference between copyright violation for personal use and copyright violation for commercialization is many orders of magnitude.

JD Vance’s campaign said he “doesn’t believe in guilt-by-association cancel culture”

It’s not like they are just guys who happen to know each other like they are in the same bowling league. And it is not like he invited the guy on to talk about the weather and then he went off on a whole Nazi tangent of his own accord. Tucker knew who he was, liked the things he says, and invited him on his show to specifically spread his words to his audiences. He intentionally platformed a Nazi. That is not “guilt-by-association”. That is guilt-by-your-own-actions. Also known as guilt, and full on Nazi shit.

Well, I am shocked! Absolutely stunned. No, no. Wait. I meant unsurprised and jaded.

”… bypass the usual bureaucratic nonsense"

Immigration laws? Quotas? Checking that they’re not importing the “criminals, drug traffickers, human traffickers and people from insane asylum from those shithole countries”?

“like language tests”

“Speak 'Merican!” “Why should I press 1 for English!?”

“or history exams,”

“They come over here and don’t even integrate to our culture, our laws and our history. They want to bring their own culture here and replace us”

I know it never stops, but even still this level of hypocritical entitlement still amazes me. Either way, can’t wait for these Leopard Ate My Face posts.

People getting covid vaccines and wearing face masks were living in fear. Man standing behind bullet proof glass? Brave. Strong. Manly.

At minimum he was struck by glass. His reaction was instantaneous with the shots and clearly he was reacting to being hit in the ear. It could have just been reacting to a close fly by at his ear, except the chances of him then being injured and bleeding from the same ear from an agent are slim to none. But however he was injured, it clearly wasn’t much of an injury regardless.

It would be kind of a moot point as he WAS shot at and injured, and a bystander and the shooter were both killed. Those are the important facts here. But then Trump had to throw a fit over the FBI saying they weren’t sure he’d actually been struck by a bullet or by shrapnel. He made such a stink out of it that now that he was clearly barely injured, it just makes him look silly and egotistical (go figure!) for so vehemently insisting he was hit with a bullet.

I can’t read the article myself due to the paywall. But presumably these quotes are by the same individual? Why would any Democrat campaign take the advice of someone who has spent decades helping to get Republican presidents elected? Why would he offer his advice to them at all? Certainly not in good faith. And why would he be an expert at what makes a good choice regarding nominees? His campaigns have presumably lost as many as they’ve won and their electorate is motivated by fundamentally different things. And never has there been a situation like this for either party during an election, a former president and convicted felon and current president circling the drain.

I don’t necessarily disagree with the sentiment, but given the source I don’t give the slightest fuck what his view point is on matters of the Democratic Party.
