Many voted for Taco because he is "authentic." An asshole, but authentic. This is the most ludicrous, asinine statement I ever heard. We do not want authentic assholes. We want principled people who do not, and need not, announce they are principled.

Nothing was stolen. This is a false hope to make us feel we are better than this. We could not possibly have reelected that monstrosity, we want to believe. But we did reelect that. We are not better than this.

Right. With or without Clooney, Taco was going to get it because we could not remove our heads from Inside our tuchus.

republicans being cheered in Fox News and rallies: just the People expressing their love and appreciation to the leadership of Supreme Taco and happy about how America is great again. republicans being booed and slammed in media and town halls: just Democratic operatives paid by Soros.

To Taco, you are correct. Even though scotus said a "president" is basically immune, they will all make sure it applies to Taco only, and no other president.

Locksmith (@locksmithprime.bsky.social) reply parent
You are correct. I do not believe one single Taco voter regrets their vote. Taco has more than 90% approval rate among republicans. It will take two or three cycles of pain to learn.

It is the belief we are better than that. We are not better than that. We made the same mistake twice. Twice.

Bully, despise your enemy. Humiliate the weak. Enact revenge on those who did not support you. Mine first. The rest, yours but only if you give me something in return. I am the best, the most handsome, smartest, strongest. These are the teachings of Republican Jesus.

People still assume, or stupidly hope, that this regime has any measure of principles or ethics or shame or accountability.
Locksmith (@locksmithprime.bsky.social) reply parent
Shame requires integrity and principles. A modicum. You will find none of that among republicans.

We deflect when there is something relevant coming against. This? You know, there was a time when we could engage in debate. Exchange ideas and opinions. But after 2017? After 4 years of that bullshit and after law, ethics were flushed down the drain? Hell with it.
Locksmith (@locksmithprime.bsky.social) reply parent
Debate? You know, seeing republicans complaining about gerrymandering as unjust and Fox News hosts criticizing Newson's posts while at the same time acknowledging they are copies of Taco's... I believe this is no hypocrisy or bad faith... republicans really do not see it. They cannot comprehend it.
Locksmith (@locksmithprime.bsky.social) reply parent
This is so beyond pathetic that my vocabulary fails me.
Locksmith (@locksmithprime.bsky.social) reply parent
republicans accusing others of hypocrisy is perhaps the epitome of hypocrisy. Or lack of shame, but as I say, shame is reserved for those with a modicum of principles and integrity.
Locksmith (@locksmithprime.bsky.social) reply parent
It is the same old excuse. "We do it because you did it first." Sure. Perhaps republicans choose to disregard that, for instance, California has an independent commission to redistrict, and needs voter approval. Texas? Texas locks representatives in the Capitol. Because of Democracy. Or something.

Of course they are. All Taco voters are happy. They will have their houses burnt down by Taco, have their children trafficked, have their limbs cut off and fed back to them by Taco, and they will ALL still support him. And you know what that is? INTELLECT!
Locksmith (@locksmithprime.bsky.social) reply parent
If all that is true, good. Don't like it? republicans go first in stopping gerrymandering. Before that, they can all go to hell.

WOW. @marcelias.bsky.social goes off on the failures of legacy media: "We have an absolute collapse and failure by the institutions that have promised us that democracy would not die in darkness, that in fact, they stand for the proposition that democracy will die in plain sight of daylight."

I just started watching season 4 of Resident Alien. The two kids are now taller than a house. Deputy Liv lost some half of her weight. Kate is thinner and ripped. Her first scene reminded me of a magnificent muscular fighting machine Linda Hamilton in Terminator 2.

Well... if republicans can basically set one district to concentrate all Dems and then spread all others among republicans, so can Democrats. Texas voted for Harris with something close to 40 or 45%, yet republicans maintain some 80% of representatives. It is just bullshit.
Locksmith (@locksmithprime.bsky.social) reply parent
No one who voted for Taco regrets their vote. They would do it again today. Taco will set their house on fire, cut their limbs and force them to eat the limbs, and they will STILL support him.

I hear that those are "open" to redistricting. At least Newson is already putting up the thing for vote. This has to move quickly, because those blue states still need to follow honest paths to get redistricting moving, whereas red states need only a pen since they are, well, republican states.
Locksmith (@locksmithprime.bsky.social)
Why is it that only Newson is aggressively pursuing counter-gerrymandering? Dems are still sitting on their asses.

True, but I have little hope that Dems will actually go this direction. All this "high road" crap. Gerrymandering is bad and let's get rid of it. Sure, but republicans first.
