And just saying a mild version of what you just said, which is obviously true, got Terry Moran fired from ABC.

It's pretty clear that a lot of people in power now have never been faced physical consequences for saying really obnoxious things and probably there was some point growing up where that could have gone differently.

It’s like all the douchebags from HS formed a club. Now they’re using positional authority for retribution.

This is a good analysis.

The brat grew up listening to Rush Limbaugh in Santa Barbara and never was shoved into a locker like he deserved.

I don't think they've been faced with ANY consequences. It'd be nice if he were granted the same consequences from his words and behavior as other people.

This is what I keep thinking about Vance: he must've known how to keep a lid on it, because there is no way he would've gotten away with saying the things he does while he was serving without *someone* giving him a time up.

Tune. God do I hate Google keyboard

That's why I suspect Vance of domestic violence towards Usha. He's publicly angry with her and the kids yet has a way about him that screams "I beat my wife in private." Abusers know how to behave in front of people who scare them. They're not helplessly unstable or whatever.

Same is often true of the worst domestic violence perps. Some are victims themselves of child abuse but a lot are mommy's boys with a boy mom who threatened to beat up any school teacher who disciplined her baby. Boy mom also declares any wife not good enough for him, etc et al.

It beggars belief that he believes himself to be superior to anyone. Zero redeeming qualities.

That's the point of white supremacy: you don't need to do anything to earn stuff, because you deserve stuff just for belonging to an arbitrary group.

All I heard is that he needs a good ole fashioned ass whooping.

History will obviously not be kind to this dude. The question is how much ammunition is the GOP willing to give the historians.

The videos showing him as a kid are far worse. He has learned how to hold down the worst of his screeching.

Whenever a Republican tells you, "We will be greeted as liberators," you can take it to the bank.

Pretty sure his family have disowned him and want nothing to do with him.

White Bald Ugly Tiny pecker Not very smart No one ever liked him And that means others must suffer to make him feel strong and better than the piece of vile filth that he is.

I can think of at least two that might beat or parallel him on this measure ;-)

Seriously! There have likely been writers & show-runners for new TV crime-solving dramas who created a character similar to Miller, and the director & producers said "Nah! That character's absurdly extreme - tone it down a bit to make him more realistic"

It’s questionable if he is a person. Seems more like a weirdly programmed robot from a bad sci-fi film.

He ain't doing great physically either... Just sayin

He is. But why are US journalists not going after the conduit- FOX news hosts like Hannity?

Yes, worse even than Bannon and Musk.

Auditioning hard to be non-CG Gollum... But Gollum still had a *little* goodness left in him.

And probably the most powerful person in the country. It doesn't seem ideal...

Who isn't in a ward for the criminally, homicidally insane?

It’s a toss up between Trump, Miller, and several of that regime for who gets this classification… there are a lot of psychologically malformed folks there to pick from.

I read Guerrero's bio of him, and, no offense to her, I quit halfway through. Other than his being coddled by racist Republicans pretty much his whole life, he's not interesting.

Every video I’ve seen of him when younger has school shooter written all over it

History books written by subsequent generations will talk about the atrocities he committed (that we don't yet know about currently).

Josef Mengele incarnated

He proves that authoritarian brains are born that way. He was a little shit as a teenager too.

According to research like Bob Altemeyer, authoritarians can be made as well. But I agree that this shit was born that way.

What events lead to this kind of warped outcome?

I hope his parents are ashamed of themselves at least

I believe that they are very ashamed of him.

His uncle is. He even went on TV to say so

And he's in effective control of the entire domestic side of government and we haven't yet found a way to block him.
