After President Biden’s speech last night, it seems like a lot of people are unhappy that they got the shoe, and it fits.

1. After all their...

Attention whoring and when they finally get noticed and identified, they squeal like a hurt dog. Always the professional victim.

[MontanaMama]

16. Perfectly said.

What a bunch of babies. No offense to actual infants. These people are laughable.

[Crowman2009]

18. Or like the bully who finally gets their ass kicked and runs crying to the playground monitor.

[underpants]

2. Love the second meme

[Bev54]

14. Me too, will be stealing that one!

[yardwork]

37. Me too!

[UTUSN]

3. K&R for, perfect Dan and graphic!

[FalloutShelter]

4. The FUCK YOUR FEELINGS! crowd

have hurt fee-fees.

[Caliman73]

20. Oh, they are ALWAYS in their feelings.

The data, the evidence, and real world experience does not support their ideology. They love to trumpet "Facts don't care about your feelings" but the reality is that EMOTION is all they have to rile up their voters.

Conservatives do not vote based on rational decision making. How does shifting the tax burden from the people with the most wealth, to the people with the least, stimulate an economy? Why would wealthy business owners hire more people and pay people more, when they can push the existing workforce to do more, or automate? The answer to both is, "It doesn't and They wouldn't". Wealthy people only seem to care about making more money and gaining more power. If you aren't wealthy, then you really have little reason to vote for Conservative policies.

I know there are motivations like promoting Christianity, maintaining the privileged status of men, and White people, but again, those are EMOTIONAL things based on anger and fear.

23. From the TURNABOUT IS FAIR PLAY crowd:

Fuck YOUR feelings, Republican HEARTLESS ASSHOLE-PREDATORS.

[HillbillyDaoist]

29. Whiny snowflakes

They can sure dish out the shit but I've never seen such a crybaby, pearl-clutching, easily offended group as the Republicans.

[ShazzieB]

30. Mmm...

[RAB910]

5. I appreciate the cartoon pointing out the rank hypocrisy and dishonesty of MAGA

But I think it unintentionally downplays what President Biden was trying to say. This wasn't just President Biden giving the MAGA a well-deserved FU; he is warning America and Americans of the existential threat MAGA poses

[Justice matters.]

6. And warning the non-maga "conservatives" they've been infected by a fascist virus... eom

[wnylib]

9. And telling Republicans what Kinzinger is saying,

that, for now, it might be best if they vote for a Dem against a MAGA candidate in order to defeat the MAGAS and get their party back. They can switch back to regular Republicans once the MAGAS are gone.

That's an appeal to Independents and to the remaining non MAGAS in the Republican party.

[KPN]

7. True. But it's intent was to point out the

absolutely absurdity of their ludicrous hypocrisy. It did a hell of a job accomplishing that.

[IronLionZion]

8. Love the conservative tears and whining

[Emile]

10. Spot on!

[Renew Deal]

11. What's that saying about "pissing off the RIGHT people"

[elias7]

12. The MAGA crowd doesn't even understand what fascism is and that they are it.

If they weren't so stupid, you might be able to get through to them, but I'm guessing most stopped learning once they went to day care, er... school.

[SunSeeker]

13. Funny how the networks didn't carry Biden's speech, but ARE covering the MAGAt reaction. nt

[Martin68]

15. I have a feeling Rather may be feeling a bit better watching this after his ignominious

firing because he fell for a hoax regarding W's National Guard service. He was an excellent reporter, but one professional mistake and they canned him. Must be nice for him to see Trump getting the treatment Bush should have received.

[d_r]

17. I'm not even sure it was a hoax

[Martin68]

24. The letter itself was a forgery. The contents were probably true, in my estimation.

[lees1975]

19. The Trump-Maga wing of the GOP declared themselves to be the enemies of the people

on January 6, 2021, when they attacked Congress by overrunning the U.S. Capitol. And they have continued to push this anti-American, anti-patriotic political tripe, based on a baseless lie and unproven conspiracy theories. So the arrests, guilty verdicts, confessions and prison time being served by those who were part of that mob are justified under the rule of law. Support for the law enforcement officers, justice department and judicial system which is prosecuting these cases is evidence of support for the rule of law.

The Democrats are standing with law enforcement against those who attacked them, with the rule of law against a lawless mob advocating for more lawlessness, and for truth and integrity against fraudulent attempts to steal the election with phony electors who actually allowed their names to be put on those seditious, fake ballots that were to be submitted to Congress. Everyone who took part in that seditious insurrection and everyone who supports it has made themselves the enemies of American freedom and democracy, and of the American people.

21. If ever we needed evidence of mainstream media's Republican bias, last night was it.

The three major television networks refused to carry a major address by the President of the United States, depriving millions of citizens the opportunity to hear the speech first hand. In contrast, most networks carried Trump’s every utterance, no matter how trivial or stupid.

27. Did PBS carry it, or did they just film it

and make the film available to the Lincoln Project to stream on YouTube?

The action starts around 7:46 and Joe starts at about 8:30

I made a shortened URL but DU cuts off the 4 digits that make it start when one wants it to.

[yonder]

32. I couldn't find it on any of our local PBS stations.

[soldierant]

33. I didn't look at the schedules, but this vid

definitely bears its logo. So I assume they made it.

[yonder]

34. We looked a couple of times during but nada.

Perhaps someone leaned on our Idaho affiliate?

[soldierant]

36. These days almost anything is possible

They may have been leaned on - or they may have decided that putting it on in an area that red was asking for trouble. Or it could have been something else. PBS may have made the video intending to air it eventually, or to air parts of it.

22. Wow

That shoe Fit Perfect too

[onecaliberal]

25. Fuck their feelings. The MAGA tears are delicious.

[Septua]

26. The truth is painful for...

..the untruthers.

[Alien Life Form]

28. Someone told me a long time ago.

"Pigs squeal the loudest when you step on their feet!"

Keep squealing, Trump Pigs! Music to my ears!

31. A barking dog is a nervous dog. ❤️

35. S'mattah, Goobers, can't take whatcha dish?

After countless namecalling insults in speech and social media from TFG.
For a party that complains about Dem's "cancel culture", they're doing a lot of cancelling, banning, bashing and trashing.
