    Trump is the master. The rest of his party just follows his lead. Lie, lie, lie, and brainwash the cult following.

    it'd appear that

    while txtony focuses on just the facts as provided by the Gallop poll
    , Commodore falls for the intellectual dishonest spin by Byron York​





    earth to Commodore, party affiliation / ID has not been shifted
    • the upward trending line Dem remains intact
    • the downard trending line for Repug remains intact

    What a douche, you lost by 60 points and you think it's some grand conspiracy? I hope this isn't a sign of what to expect from Republicans in the midterms and beyond.

    Good lord. Even my most Trumper of Trumper friends and family would mask up (and b**** about it of course but...) if they were going to be in close proximity to someone they knew that was immunocompromised. Especially if they were given warning that they were going to be in a close social setting and they just want to protect them.

    Now with complete strangers at the store, church, or wherever, my Trumper maskhole friend and family would say screw them, and refuse to wear one, and make a big stink about it, but you'd never see such a blatant disregard for someone like this that they knew if they were asked.

    There's a special place in hell for someone who would put his politics ahead of potentially killing someone you know by knowingly shedding a deadly disease with them. The only logical conclusion I can come up with is that like with RGB, many on the right are so drunk with obtaining the power of the judiciary that they are literally trying to kill her with Covid, and maybe the nomination for another SCOTUS won't happen until after the midterms when McConnell might be the majority leader again.

    Call me whatever you want for thinking that, but after everything we've seen, what evidence is there that those in power at the top of the GOP wouldn't knowingly attempt to do this?

    It's scary enough to be true really.

    On Monday, Ingraham introduced a section of her show called Positively Boosted, in which she gleefully recounts which vaccinated public figures have tested positive.

    Clapping and smiling, she said: “Triple-vaxxed joint chiefs chairman Mark Milley, our favorite Mark Milley, tested positive for Covid yesterday.

    “And who else? Gen David Berger, the Marine Corps commandant, also positively boosted.”

    How sick is that? That's Rightwing Fox News hosts for ya.

    The Republican Party should have a name change. I propose the Anti-Democracy Party. For practical purposes they want to go back to voting only for white adults with sufficient property.

    Wow! That's a perfect name for what the party has become. There is no democracy left in that party. Actually, there is no respect, integrity, decency, or empathy for human suffering either. How they identify themselves as God loving people baffles me the most.

    So basically, the former president and leading candidate for the republican nomination is threatening to run again to avoid prosecution and republicans are OK with that...

    i know you already know this, and because you're a conscientious poster we can expect you to retract this post:

    Sotomayor, Gorsuch, and Roberts have all said this story never happened, and its a complete fabrication.
