(4,858 posts)...Jesus. A whole generation of American kids is growing up thinking that "John Kennedy" is an asshole, instead of one of our greatest Presidents...

(16,616 posts)in so doing, happily promotes Russian interests and damages Ukrainian interests. It's a form of contempt for American democracy. They do not care one iota about the truth.
In answer to a reporter's question, he said something like, "I do not know that Ukraine did not meddle in the 2016 election, you do not know, and nobody knows."
My rebuttal is that, from my personal experiences, I do not "know" that the earth is round. But, I believe that it it is round based on the knowledge I have acquired from reading knowledgeable sources on the subject.
The senator is indeed a disingenuous purveyor of false narratives.

To not tell the truth that you know is to lie.

(9,426 posts)about Nancy Pelosi "It must hurt to be that stupid" Kennedy, the toothless wonder said that about Nancy Pelosi! Tell us, John, how much does YOUR stupidity hurt? The worst of the worst gravitate to the gop. The dumber they are, the more they repeat tRump talking points. Is he senile, I wonder?

(86,514 posts)"...it must really SUCK to be that stupid!" He should know.

(9,426 posts)Whoever expected an elected official to use that kind of expression? I guess the gop has to talk down to their followers, in language that they understand.

(86,514 posts)lower the level of discourse for the rest when they stoop that low. It's like there's no anticipation of civility or respect anymore. And if someone does show respect they are mocked.

(23,733 posts)when I hear I serious southern accent, my mind immediately goes to: racist. I think it was because of the time period I grew up in. All the news from the south was of KKK killing, hurting and oppressing black folks, Jewish people and Catholics and they all had southern accents when trying to defend their positions.
And as for Kennedy, just listening to him and what comes out of his mouth makes me think racist along with being a Russian collusionist and Trump apologist.

(4,006 posts)He actually was as Kennedy kept spewing one falsehood after another. Even logic and facts (US intelligence said is was and still is all Russian interference) didn't stop his constant lying on behalf of Trump. I do wonder if his constituents still accept his version of events, at least a minority, we hope.
