US Politics, October 2019 — I guess statement you could say with thread. I made a thread. The thread was PERFECT.

He said this in Pennsylvania, right? How many people from Colorado and Kansas were there?

I don't know why it's so hard for us to tell when President Ragestroke is just kidding around. It must be so exhausting for him to have to explain all of his flights of whimsy after the fact.

I know it gets said a lot but just lmao that people are basing their entire personality around this guy and alienating all their friends

if they're alienated then they weren't really your friends

growing up in the south, everyone i knew HATED donald trump as the perfect embodiment of what a rich, crass, shitty yankee was; i gotta believe that regional division still burns bright in their heart if someone can just give it a little push
oh that warren had a southern accent

semi xpost:

I know he theoretically has 99% support among Republicans, but I wonder if by the end he'll have alienated enough people that next November instead of talking about "Reagan Democrats" political reporters will have to start talking about "Warren [or Biden, or Sanders] Republicans."

Ah, who am I kidding? Political reporters never give up their treasured mythological frameworks. And yes, Morbius, we all know Warren used to be a Republican. Save it.

I don't know if all these ride or die Trump supporters are thinking that relationships that disintegrated over their support will be fine again when Trump is gone.

I will not stop pissing on my neighbor's car even after Trump's removal

xp knowing my dad, yes (he's wrong)

Andrew Napolitano: "As frustrating as it may be to have these hearings going on behind closed doors ... they are consistent with the rules. ... When were the rules written last? In January of 2015. And who signed them? John Boehner. And who enacted them? A Republican majority." pic.twitter.com/Zl10ZNugf4

That news sounds...fake.

Was there any place where people DID like him prior to this bizarre befuddling cult? He was a joke since he appeared on public stage

Republicans really are the dumbest of all the fucks.

ohhhh, I bet Trump is shitting an unelected fake brick at that clip

Graham is facing increasing pressure from Trump’s allies, who have used the #WheresLindsey hashtag on Twitter in recent days to call on Graham to more strongly defend the president from impeachment.

lol

Lick that boot, Lindsey!

gonna be a lot of GOP posturing/headline dominating today while the Dems are all off at Cummings' funeral

I don't really care about this Katie HIll thing aside from wondering in what scenario it seems like a good idea to brush the hair of your fully dressed lover while completely naked, while she scrolls through her phone, sitting between your open legs, and have someone else take a picture of it? The mind boggles.

Was it already noted that yesterday's shenanigans coincided with Pelosi being gone for her brother's funeral?

I would like to make it clear that I am deeply troubled by recent suggestions about building a wall around Colorado

I am okay with it as long as Nevada pays for it.

lol at Trump having the same geographical knowledge of the West that most East Coast folks have

like people in Philadelphia think that Arizona in is "the South"

~ scrolls up bemusedly ~

wtf is the katie hill thing

where does this come from? who/what is covering this? have never heard of it

what on earth

Any president who is impeached and acquitted should be permitted to serve a third term, writes William Mattox https://t.co/1nNkJF0GoY

that would require a constitutional amendment so good luck w that

haven't read the article, but i assume the argument is any president who had to deal with a bunch of bullshit from the opposing party deserves another term.

hmmmm, wonder if any recent presidents would feel like they had to deal with a bunch of bullshit from the opposing party, hmmm

set up the strawman, knock 'em down, that's what i say

Katie Hill is everywhere afaict
But yeah I hadn’t heard of it until now
Bubble bubble bubble

Katie hill story that is

oh dang, she's a US Rep. I just assumed she was someone mentioned in a string of deep state FBI messages, possibly involving "the lovers"

the WSJ's sapient op-ed page also said that Trump was too incompetent to impeach.

I heard that line during the Reagan era.

Good Grief

The saga began after RedState, a conservative website, over the weekend published a series of articles and photos reporting that the lawmaker had been involved in a relationship with a female campaign staffer whose name was not released. Among the content published by RedState was a nude photo of Hill.

"Intimate photos of me and another individual were published by Republican operatives on the internet without my consent," the lawmaker told The Hill, referring to the materials as a "smear campaign."

Conservatives only gonna be conservative until there's pron involved.

What's being done to Katie Hill - who, let me be clear, is a very attractive young lady - is a disgrace.

reading other people's text messages is so cringe. I am going to treat every text now like I am making an appt at the dentist.

My significant other complains but honestly that how I roll

That’s fine for those of us who aren’t sleeping the dentist

ugh, the pet names in the texts are the worst.

The pet names are fine, it's us reading the texts that's the worst tbh

they call each other shithead, stinker, butt, babe... i can't decide which one is the worst.

why are you reading anyone else's texts, just stop

Well, yeah... I just feel reading them at all is more uncomfortable than judging their pet names. I do get you though. (butt?! really?!)

This is like poring over leaked video of a public figure wiping themselves and critiquing their technique.

what are you guys even talking about

What's being done to Katie Hill - who, let me be clear, is a very attractive young lady - is a disgrace.
