I guess they are as okay with her as they are with Trump, Hawley, and the rest of his idiot minions.

People like Trump and MTG are legitimately stupid. However, guys like Hawley and Cruz are smart -- they are simply playing idiots on TV because it works. In many ways, that makes them worse since they are capable of better.

Could put Tucker on that list, even though he isn't an actual politician.

Tucker is definitely not an idiot and knows EXACTLY what he's doing, which makes it far worse. He's literally profiting from keeping his viewers angry and dividing the nation.

I almost did, but then kept it to politicians. 

The senior partner in my firm has had dinner with Tucker a few times. He 100% knows what he is doing, and it's all about ratings. In private he dunks on Trump and his followers constantly. He knows they are stupid and dangerous, but he tells them what they want to hear in order to win the ratings war. 

And, in all fairness...it works. He crushes the competition. 

We need to admit that the biggest issue we confront is that most people are just amazingly ignorant.

Which to me makes him even more dangerous than Trump in many ways.

Yeah, in some ways Tucker is the the more despicable and more dangerous one of the two.

He'll certainly last the longest.  Trump will eat himself into the grave within 10 years.  Tucker will be spewing his anti-American garbage for decades.

This is the kicker, for me.

 

The things they want to hear. Some really sick, twisted, awful stuff, is what makes them clap and cheer.

 

Hawley is so wrong, even the National Review had to call him out.

No shame at all.

Most are just told what bills to vote for at this point. Both parties are just entrenched, it really is disheartening to see this country just slowly kill itself from the inside out.

Ex-wife accuses top Missouri GOP Senate candidate of abuse

The sworn affidavit from Sheena Greitens is part of an ongoing child custody dispute in Missouri.

Quote

Sheena Greitens wrote in the filing. "I became afraid for my safety and that of our children at our home,” later adding that his "behavior included physical violence toward our children, such as cuffing our then-3-year-old son across the face at the dinner table in front of me and yanking him around by his hair.”

Beating a three year old?  Good choice, Republicans.

Grietens should withdraw. Find out the details of the affair he had with his hairstylist. There is a pattern of physical abuse. He was forced to resign as governor before legislature could decide on impeachment. Or he would not be running for office now.  But in today's GOP... abusing women, abusing kids... It is merely questionable behavior. Not a disqualification for running for office. <_<

Eric Trump’s New Attack On Joe Biden

https://news.yahoo.com/eric-trump-attack-joe-biden-050409990.html

Yep, how could Biden go bike riding.

His father would never do that, he says. His father would have given a speech in front of F-35s. Although he apparently spent much of every crisis during his administration, golfing.

oh i have had plenty to say about her. 

  

Lindsey Graham is an embarrassment.

I don't remember this line of questions during the Barrett, Kavanaugh, and Gorsuch hearings. Good thing Judge Jackson knows law much better than Graham.

Graham later stormed out of the hearings to go whine to the press.

Me either. The Dems did push out some indirect push at Barrett's religion but not directly.  At least nothing direct that I recall.

Really weird for Graham to throw in that "you can adjudicate people's cases fairly if you're an atheist", since she specifically said she's a Christian.

A rare exception, I am sad to say. I applaud your taste.

She is not the fringe, but rather the base of the party. No surprise. 

Marjorie Taylor Greene Inadvertently Exposes Ugly Truth About GOP In New Ad

Lee Moran
Wed, March 23, 2022, 3:51 AM
 
 

The reality of the GOP in 2022 is laid bare in extremist Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene’s (R-Ga.) own words in a progressive group’s biting new attack ad.

Greene’s claim that lawmakers like her are "not the fringe” but "the base of the party” is put on loop in the edited, online spot that the PAC MeidasTouch released Tuesday.
