I thought the cultural deal was to leave younger children alone in the political process.

Rush was making fun of Chelsea Clinton’s looks when she was a kid, so, no, for conservatives, this was never the case.

Of course the right wing is going nuts over this. They have this huge “manly man” macho bullshit culture. I mean, Hulk fucking Hogan talking about body slamming Kamala Harris because he’s a real man and she offends him - that’s the Republican Party.

So Tim Walz’s son is special needs. He has emotions that are strong and doesn’t have controls to force them down and pretend he doesn’t feel. That’s the ultimate sin for a manly man. You can’t be “weak” like that. You can’t be vulnerable.

So Ann Coulter (she’s still alive?) attacks Walz’s son, trying to flip the Democrat attack against the R’s back. Yes, his response to the situation is not typical, it does not conform to our social expectations for public behavior. But he’s not being mean, and he’s not a politician or a spokesperson for the party. He’s just there with his Dad.

Whereas her targeting him _is_ mean and hurtful. It shows her character.

Then this Bill Mitchell a-hole makes a “joke” about abortion targeting Walz’s son. Now that’s low, even for aTrumper.

That’s where the Republican party is now. I’m sure they’re eating it up.

Shitstain.

That was impressive. Not only good lyrics but getting them to lip-sync so well.

Do you guys know where I can find the video shown at the DNC (day 2 or 3 I think) covering Trump and Jan 6th Insurrection. Mostly video clips and soundbites of the event at the capitol building and texts with a timeline of Trump’s behavior and whereabouts.

It was very moving and I want to send it to friends and family but can’t find it on YouTube.

There are people following Coulter to report anything awful she posts?

And I though Coulter was a useless cunt.
