That was quite obvious. But Hawley is a cunt. What can be expected? So Biden was certified. Good.

This situation gets me thinking...

A meme. So you know the Black Ops Zombies starting cutscene? Replace Nixon with Trump, Kennedy with Biden, Castro with the Democratic Party, and the other guy with Kamala Harris or something.

I think that would be funny. Any takers?

None of them will. We call it an insurrection, they call it a regular day in the MAGA crowd.

Seeing as Trump left office w 90% GOP support, it is safe to assume it would destroy the GOP and leave an even more radical party in its' place that'll have us libs smiling over Mitch McConnell in the same way libs now smile over Romney.

I, frankly, don't want to see it. What happens if they win the Governorship of even one state? It'll be a nightmare.


Most people appreciate Romney because he's not...you know...Treasonous? Even if you don't like his positions on things, he didn't kowtow to Trump and actually is consistent in what he believes.


As thoroughly awful as Trump is, I cannot bring myself to give any credit to the Republicans who oppose him (nor most Democrats) because while their politics are less overtly fascist, they're no less deadly. Denying health care to the people, especially during the biggest pandemic in American history, is murder. Socialism for billionaires and capitalism for everyone else is murder.

Romney is never going to inspire stochastic terrorism like Trump does, but he's still standing on a pile of corpses.

I don't think we are going to get anywhere until we realize that there is no meaningful difference between letting a sick person die of a treatable illness and shooting them in the head.

I think this is one of those rare situations where you can kinda have your cake and eat it too. You can be outraged at the lack of basic necessities offered to vulnerable Americans during a grueling pandemic while also being enraged that so many folks were complicit in an attempted storming of the Capitol.

To be fair, the woman in question has argued often and loudly that BLM protesters should be killed.

And the person killed by Kyle Rittenhouse was a pedo, so if you apply that standard to that situation, the same standard should apply here, if you don’t then you shouldn’t have a double standard
