The Commission on Presidential Debates is supposedly bipartisan w/ an equal number of Rs and Ds. I know all of the Republicans and most are friends of mine. I am concerned that none of them support @realDonaldTrump
. A biased Debate Commission is unfair.

1. Nobody listens to that old shit.

[OAITW r.2.0]

12. That tweet isn't complimentary to Trump. nt

[TwilightZone]

43. It pretty clearly is.

If you're parsing out the "nobody supports Trump" part, I think you're missing the entire point.

[trc]

48. Clearly anti t-rump

Dole is saying that all the republicans he knows don't like t-rump and therefor if there is a panel of rethugs and dems there will be no one on the panel that likes t-rump, so that is unfair to t-rump. Sarcasm emoji left off by Dole.

[TwilightZone]

49. Nope.

What part of the commission is biased and unfair are you missing?

[Grins]

53. Aka, "Nixon's hatchet man"

And a willing one at that.

[NoMoreRepugs]

2. Dole is still alive? Imagine that.

[gristy]

25. That was my first reaction too.

Amazing.

[Mike 03]

27. I didn't know either.

[customerserviceguy]

59. Agreed

Maybe Viagra has some health benefits we didn't know about.

[OAITW r.2.0]

3. Huh....didn't know Bob was amongst the living....but that is funny.

[BusyBeingBest]

4. Holy crap, he's still alive!

I had forgotten.

[blueinredohio]

5. He's still alive?

[sprinkleeninow]

6. why did he surface?

just shutty and run avay...

[Laelth]

7. I am thrilled to know that many Republicans are sane.

The fact that they’re sane does not indicate that they are biased.

-Laelth

[maxsolomon]

8. I guess that's a problem.

I would argue that makes them LESS biased and able to be impartial, but what do I know? I'm a Farleftist!

[idziak4ever1234]

9. He needs to shrivel up and blow away like dust in the wind.

(Wasn't that written by Kansas?)

[DanieRains]

10. Replace Them With Boogaloo Boys And Proud Boys And Michigan Wolverine Militia Guys Right Bobbie?

How about the Klan?

American NAZI Party?

Who else would be Pro-Trump these days?

I know!

Invite Satan himself for the commission!!!!!

At least ask Putin to help out right?

[SheltieLover]

11. He needs to STFU

Go take a viagra, limp weenie!

[Revanchist]

24. Will he wash it down with a Pepsi?

[bigtree]

13. Bob Dole is lying about the record!

...

[Hamer555]

14. If the number of Ds to Rs is equal, then bipartisan it is.

Not supporting Trump does not mean that a Republican is not a Republican.

[The Genealogist]

15. Honestly, I thought he had passed on years ago

Maybe some of those friends of yours got a clue, Bob. Wish they'd loan one to you.

[OAITW r.2.0]

16. I think some are missing the humor on this post.

At first I assumed he was bitching about Commission, but reread-

" I know all of the Republicans and most are friends of mine. I am concerned that none of them support @realDonaldTrump."

He's saying there is no bi-partisanship because they all hate Trump.

[Cognitive_Resonance]

19. You're right. Everyone is missing it. It's wry humor. nt

[Cha]

23. lol.. that's what I got out of it too.. in

post below.

[BeerBarrelPolka]

26. Yep.

Exactly!

[TwilightZone]

44. Only if one ignores the "biased and unfair" part.

Context is important.

[GusBob]

50. he's trying to get Trump to retweet it by using his favorite words

the point is none of the repubs on the commission support him

not one

[TwilightZone]

54. No, the point is that the commission is biased and unfair.

I find it remarkable how many people are completely ignoring that part.

But, hey, I'm sure it's just a witty joke, especially after Dole called Trump's SOTU one of the best he's ever seen.

[GusBob]

58. Are there an equal number of D's and R's on the panel as he states?

Then it is bipartisan see? Not one of the R's supports Trump, see?

That's why its biased. And therefore it is not fair to DT. Just like in the polls and in the upcoming election, he' aint got a chance

Its one of those philosophical things where the argument is reduced to the absurd

[OAITW r.2.0]

63. Thanks...I guess some people see what they want when you string a lot of words

together and it's on Bob Dole's Tweet.

But if Trump retweets it....excellent! It will get deconstructed and provide, yet again, another example that Trump can;t differentiate between an insult and a compliment.

[TwilightZone]

64. That doesn't make any sense.

The assertion is that Dole is intentionally dissing Trump. That's ridiculous. Dole has been kissing his ass for four years, including calling Trump's SOTU in 2020 one of the best he's ever seen.

[PSPS]

17. "A biased Debate Commission is unfair" You mean biased on the side of america? Putin gets a say too?

[Docreed2003]

18. No way that old bastard wrote that...none

[Cha]

20. Brwaaaaa.. Dole is Starting Shit for trump!

They are repubs on commission and he's worried none support trump. LOL.

We already know trump was allowed to run rampant & not even be tested for the 1st "debate".

[Butterflylady]

29. What I'd like to know is where are they being 'unfair'.

Seems to me their bending over backwards to be fair. Actually, for what he got away with was unfair to Biden. Dole got it backwards. Maybe he's still sore about Clinton doing so much better.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

21. It appears that most of the commenters on this thread didn't get Dole's joke.

[GusBob]

37. Its the way the post is framed by the OP title

Hes stirring shit alright by trolling Trump

I laughed my ass off

[TwilightZone]

46. You think "biased and unfair" is a joke?

It seems those who believe this is a joke are ignoring context.

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

47. That IS the joke.

Dole has endorsed Trump in the past, don't know where he stands after Trump pissed all over veterans, but calling the panel biased is the joke.

[TwilightZone]

52. The same Bob Dole who called Trump's SOTU speech a "home run"

Yeah, no.

22. He is trolling them! Haaaaaaaaaaaaa

No old line repub supports trump, just ask the bushes. If he is not trolling, I have a question that I personally have always wanted to ask the man.
Mr. Dole, did you ever reimburse General Electric (you know your big buddy Jack Welch, CEO the) for all the times you used the company jets to fly around while you were campaigning for President? Just asking for a friend who was there.

[PTWB]

28. Integrity from Republicans?

Fire them and replace them with Trump boot lickers. That’s the answer.

[Bettie]

30. Wait...he's still alive?

I really thought he was dead.

It sickens me that he supports the rotted two-week-past-Halloween Jack-o-Lantern roosting in the white house.

[Moostache]

31. Seriously, I am going to need proof of competency to even consider that a legitimate tweet...

For all we know, a Trumper grabbed the account information and typed that nonsense to try and back Trumpy Bear. Dole does not look like a sentient being in the most recent photos I have seen - he looks exactly like my 97-year old grandmother did before she passed. My grandmother was suffering from near total dementia when she looked like that too...

[DrToast]

32. Sooooo....it is bipartisan

What's the problem?

[gopiscrap]

33. fuck you Dole

you were an asshole when you were an elected official and guess it's carried over in retirement

[GusBob]

39. Its a joke

Read it again and think about what he is saying

Hes trying to get Trump to retweet it Id bet

[gopiscrap]

40. oops sorry

he still was a nasty asshole in his younger days

[TwilightZone]

55. Pretty sure it's not a joke.

People are seeing what they want to see and ignoring the "commission is biased and unfair" part.

Dole called Trump's 2020 SOTU speech one of the best he's ever seen. There is zero indication that he's changed his mind. If someone wants to provide some evidence that he's suddenly changed, I'd be more amenable to it being a joke. As it stands, I'm pretty sure it's not.

[njhoneybadger]

34. Halloween came early this year.

Holy freaking fright night!

[GusBob]

35. OMG THIS IS A RIOT

Nice burn Bob!

[Hamlette]

36. you need people with brains on the commission. Ain't none of those still supporting Trump.

[we can do it]

38. Is that pencil still alive?

[Pachamama]

41. Assdole

Trying to be relevant

Times up....

[StevieM]

42. Bob Dole is a despicable person and a disgraceful politician.

He is the one, more than anybody IMO, who got us into this mess that we are in. He played a lead role in moving the GOP toward being a fascist party, starting in the 1990s.

[cojoel]

45. Bob Dole didn't write that

Bob Dole refers to himself as "Bob Dole", not with pronouns like "I".

[CentralMass]

51. ...

[spanone]

56. fuck bob dole

If none of your buddies support trump, that's trump's problem asshole

[Tanuki]

57. October surprise!

61. Made me LOL.

[essme]

60. We were just wondering if he

Was dead or not.

Can't believe he's a Trumpster

[WyattKansas]

62. Bob Dole convinced a lot of his fellow Republicans to accept tRUMP as their legitimate savior.

My Dad always used to say for years, 'Bob Dole came from nothing and has worked in public service his whole life, yet somehow became a millionaire.' Followed with a lot of cursing him for being a crooked SOB.

And he was a life long Republican farmer, until he was finally convinced that Republicans were all crooked SOBs, but he especially hated the Bush Family. I'm sure he has rolled over in his grave many times over Donald Dumbass.

[yardwork]

65. I think this is Dole's wry humor.

His sarcasm didn't play well on the campaign trail either.
