By the time November rolls around and everyone has endured 5 more months of greasy orange bullshit, I would not be surprised if one or more of these seats goes Democratic.
Conservative voters are circling the wagons to protect the pedos.
No one should be calling them anything other than the PEDO PARTY going forward.
In the GOP if you’re not sufficiently pro-pedophilia you’re out of a job
Republicans love pedophiles.
If I had a lawn that faced an actual roadway I would make a Grand Ole Pedophile sign with a red elephant dragging a 12 year old looking boy on the ground by his ankle with his trunk as the boy tries to get purchase on the grass with his hands to escape.
If anyone does have said lawn and wants the sign I will have my wife whip up the art.
I mean even without a proper yards I’d post it in other yards
Can we come up with a new acronym? Can’t think of an ‘O’ word rn but I got:
G rifters
O
P edophiles
Guardians Of the Pedophiles
Obstruction
Occult
Obscurists
Kinda tells you all you need to know about MAGAts. There is no bottom.
In the article you didn’t read:
It’s too simple to reduce Mace, Greene and Massie’s loss of power to the Epstein files.
Never change, Lemmy.
(Edit: Not, of course, that you’d have to read an article to know that a sample size of four isn’t sufficient to connect the two.)
Funny, nobody accuses me of defending pedophiles because I’m not a pedo defender. It’s really not that hard to not defend pedophiles.
The article is wrong
- MTG resigned despite no obviously threatening primary challenge.
- Boebert is running uncontested in the primary.
- The article notes of Mace: “Mace’s incessant political attention-seeking and often-bizarre behavior might well have alienated primary voters as much as the Epstein saga.”
- And notes of Massie: “Both Greene and Massie were bucking Trump on plenty of other things, too.”
Like it’s clear at least Massie is gone because he went against Trump and probably Mace too, but using a sample size of four to say “Yup, it’s the Epstein files” is obviously unsound.
The article is correct on the grounds that it is too simple to reduce it to that singular cause.
The MTG resignation is just such a fucking unforced L on her part. Like, she had the right rallying around her. She could have been their Coo-coo-for-coco-puffs replacement for when the cholesterol eventually does its job. She probably could even have bilked over the remaining TYT and Jimmy Dore fans to her cause.
But at the end of the day I think its about Trump and loyalty to Trump. We’re seeing it across primaries too; the reality is that actually, the “MAGA” part of MAGA aren’t particularly engaged in electoralism. “America First” represented expanded voter-ship into demographics which didn’t typically vote; so its not particularly surprising when they don’t vote in mid-terms. And if you follow RW media, Trump has fallen quite far out of favor, although you’ll see much mental gymnast-icking. And you see it in the exit data on the mid term primaries. Democrats are out-showing-up Republicans 2:1, compared to typical turnout.
So there are a few things going on:
1: Trump is still firmly in control of the party.
2: The party is falling out of favor with their activist base.
3: Republican equivalent of ABWD are still showing up, but the part of the Republican party that put Trump into power appears to have lost interest largely because of US support for Israel and the war in Iran.
This all points further to support the thesis that Trump won’t allow free and fair elections. Because there is a real divide within MAGA/ America First right now.
She wanted a Senate run and Trump wouldn’t endorse her. Her moves since that and the Epstein stuff are out of spite for him and she’s coordinating with other Republicans as to not hurt their cause as a whole and burn bridges. She’s not gone yet unfortunately.
Massie was likely primaried for his stance on Israel. AIPAC was gloating about getting rid of him and they spent 30M to do it making it the most expensive primary in history.
There have been plenty… that’s a big part of the problem.
I cant believe Magic the Gathering is in a lineup with semi normal looking people.
*encouraged/pressed for. They didn’t force anything. The Epstein files are not fully released.
I’m sorry, but language fucking matters.
Yup yup. Also, no job true, but still have pension.
Did Nancy Mace get the over 5 years to vest?
I suspect that this is why Marjorie Taylor Greene resigned - because Trump is petty and vindictive, and was sure to do everything he could - and everything he could cajole his rich cronies into doing - to destroy the Republicans who dared to try to make an issue of the fact that he’s a statutory rapist.
Also a regular rapist.
Also a regular rapist of children. Those minors were forced into sex under duress; AND were underage.
I thought she resigned right after her pension benefits were secured
Maybe that’s just a big coincidence
I’m sure that’s not an accident but I doubt it was the point. She had (and likely still has) greater ambitions than that.
trump signed the bill himself, no doubt in some genius deflective move.
I appreciate their sacrifice on many levels
Yet no consequences for Americans implicated in the Epstein files.
Looks like they finally solidified the pedophile base under the far pro-pedophile wing.
I feel so bad for the onion these days. Where’s the satire?
Release the files
The files have not been released…
- the TRUMP-EPSTEIN FILES ™
AIPAC has our country occupied by traitors and pedophiles
