NEW Stupid Republican Idea of the Day (Part 1)

He’s on a roll today.

Happy cake day to you, by the way. :slight_smile:

“Destabilize the country” means a different thing from the RW perspective than it does from the LW perspective. The “communists” represented a threat to the “bourgeois hierarchy” which, in the American context, meant “we want you to behave responsibly”. It was a “danger” to the feudocapitalist peerage, which we are taught is fundamental to the proper functioning of our society (a questionable Objectivist ethos, IMO).

The right wing is pursuing a full-on glibertarian agenda which seeks to strip away all government cruft that constrains the industrial/financial peerage while retaining the elements that protect them and their wealth acquisition, which amounts to destabilization from the opposite vector (making conditions worse from the bottom up).

The Left was never really a significant threat to democracy inasmuch as they never had substantial access to the workings of the system. The Right is a real threat to democracy because they have established access to the system and democracy is becoming a nuisance to them, so they are trying to tweak it to make it return the desired results. I am not sure what the real Left, upon gaining the same level of control, would be doing about the system, but it seems less likely that they would be as focused on manipulating democracy so extremely because the Left, from what I have seen, trends more genuinely egalitarian than does the Right.

The guy who is running against Liz Cheney in the Republican primary is state Senator Anthony Bouchard. When Bouchard was 18, he impregnated a 14 year old girl, then married her when she was 15. They divorced three years later. I have to wonder if she got too old for him. Some time later, after remarrying, she committed suicide.
I think that an 18 year old and a 14 year old is statutory rape in any state.

Ted Cruz criticizes the “woke, emasculated” Army for showing an ad about a female soldier who has two mothers. He then tweets Russian Army propaganda to show how much better they are.

Raping a 14 year old now represents Republican Family Values.

“Better Red Than Dem”.
I never thought I would see the GOP embrace Communism.

Well, it is the party of better Russian than Democrat.

Phew! I was asking myself, where have I heard that name before?

Never mind!

Madison Cawthorn claims that the number one thing on his constituents’ minds is the “crisis at the border”. The border that’s 1600 miles from his constituency in North Carolina.

Cawthorn has also proposed making WALL a national monument so it can’t be torn down.

Oh, BTW, fellow pedophile Matt Gaetz has endorsed him.

Well, it does say “Russian” army, not “Soviet” army. Russia, at present, is a very long way from being “communistical”.

OK, got it, thanks for the clarification.

Happy day! (There should be a fancier Cake emoji for those who, on a particular day, have a legitimate right to it… :calendar: )

I propose a new national designation- The National Embarrassment, given to places to remember major stupid ideas and those who supported them.

“Chick-fil-A has a sauce shortage. And you want to know why? Because of Joe Biden’s radical liberal policies”

Happy cake day!

I can not stand hearing Tucker’s smarmy voice as he once again lies …uh, “entertains”.

Marco Rubio opposes a 1/6 commission because it requires Republicans to approve subpoenas, and if Republicans oppose the subpoenas, they will be criticized.

The Party Of Fragility.

I’m trying my best not to complain about the name Trip.

After they were done igniting California forests, the Jewish space lasers were turned on them, vaporizing it all.
