NEW Stupid Republican Idea of the Day (Part 3)

Stupid asshole.

No need to get repetitive. He’s put himself out as “Federalist writer” already

*She.

D’oh! :man_facepalming:

As if the “Federalist writer” is going to bother specifying pronouns.

What do you expect? I work at the Department of Redundancy Department!

Poser. The real ones know it’s actually the Department of Redundancy Department.

You better check your eyes! :snerk:

And there will almost certainly be a “next time,” since the article doesn’t mention any intention of modifying her reprehensible attitude (or her promotion of it).

Nor does she even say that she was wrong about Dolly. As @Just_Asking_Questions points out, her only regret is choosing someone so popular.

Yep. It’s essentially, “I’ll punch down next time.”

I thought it was the Bureau of Redundancy Department

Bureau of Redundancy Bureau.

You’re not getting the joke.

Splitter.

They’d better be careful or they could go blind and grow hair on their palms.

Okay, what did I miss? The magaflatearthers are now referring to President George W. Bush as a RINO.

Republicans can not accept that their policies don’t turn the U.S. into a paradise overnight. When looking back at previous Republican administrations (and other influential Republicans) they must either believe that everything was wonderful (the Reagan approach) or that the politician in question was not a True Republican (both Bushes).

This rationalization allows them to vote for the same policies over and over again, like tax cuts for the rich, no matter how many times they fail to deliver the promised results.

Two here:
1)Tucker Carlson is ‘on tour’ with a variety of guests. I found out when I saw an article in my local newspaper saying that he was supposed to be in town with Alex Jones but Alex suddenly dropped (or was pushed) out after people in Milwaukee raised a stink about it. That seems odd as I thought a lot of these people thrive on that exact type of attention. Also, the guests include the ones you’d expect, MTG, Vivek Ramaswamy, Tulsi Gabbard, Don Jr etc. But then also Roseanne Barr and Russell Brand. Roseanne I ‘get’, but is Russell Brand a right wing nut job? I wouldn’t have guessed that would be the case, but I have no basis for that guess one way or the other.

2)The big Trump story for the last few days is that he said, of the city hosting the RNC where he will presumably be nominated, “Milwaukee, where we are having our convention, is a horrible city". Now, this happened at a closed-door meeting, so I have no idea if we’ll ever see or hear what he actually said, but the right is saying it’s out of context and have given a barrage of excuses that cover everything from ‘he was talking about the election’ to ‘he was specifically talking about the crime rate’ to ‘he didn’t actually say that’. I think some of the other articles I saw said the Trump campaign is denying he said it (Trump’s camp denying he said something stupid? Imagine that).

Regardless of what he actually meant, the DNC put it on a billboard:

I don’t know what happened to Russell Brand. He’s always been a fruit-cake but he seemed like a critical thinker. Now he’s converted to Christianity, is up to his nose in crypto-bullshit, and has gone total MAGA.

I’m still holding out that he’s punking people, but it seems to actually be terminal.

Possibly one of those cases where his scorn for conventional established liberals sent him around the curve of the horseshoe. And the RW mediasphere is eager enough to celebrate those people even if they don’t particularly care for some of their positions.
