(5,052 posts)It's just that they will say anything that benefits them, regardless how contradictory or ironic it is. They don't believe in what they say, as long as it benefits them.

(55,804 posts)Rightly or wrongly, the majority of Dem voters thought Biden was too old. A party can pick its candidate however it pleases.
Now Americans will get a chance to vote for Kamala Harris for President. That is what democracy is all about. It is Republicans who want to deny voters the right to vote for her in the general election.

(6,533 posts)Screaming that Biden used the phrase "make a target out of him" in a speech about trump was a signal to the potential REPUBLICAN assassin. And then, today, at J D. rally, an ohio state senator said that if Democrats win, there will have to be a civil war to prevent us from ruining the country.

(164,330 posts)they literally do not care about chronic mass shootings, even in the classroom - but get offended by words like TARGET and BULLSEYE
SERIOUSLY FUCKING TWISTED ASSHOLES

BaronChocula
(2,746 posts)They're all about self-preservation and applying whatever hypocrisy and prevarication it takes to achieve it. Their media outlets are jamming up court dockets due to defamation suits against them. Their nominee is a convicted felon who's been found liable for sexual assault, defamation, and fraud. They lost the integrity game a long time ago.

(2,893 posts)Anytime that a Republican says that their party stands for anything, just remind them. In 2020 the Republican party was literally "Whatever Trump says". You don't even need to remind them that Trump often changes his stance on any particular topic between the beginning of a sentence and the end.

(2,379 posts)There were 2 or 3 fake electors where the judge dismissed the case due to the fact that it was in the wrong county. Pretty sure it is being appealed. BUT NO repugs do not hear themselves and never do or say anything wrong.

(30,176 posts)"Democracy" is like "Constitution" to these people which is to say it = "HEY I'M A WHITE PERSON SO IF I DON'T LIKE IT, IT SHOULD BE ILLEGAL and if I DO like it, you should just GIVE IT TO ME because HEY I'M A WHITE PERSON and I count MORE."
That's how that works.
Skittles
(164,330 posts)I think what you are referring to is stupid fucking MAGAts.
Maru Kitteh
(30,176 posts)blah blah BLAH. Everything you and I and most of the rest of the people on this board were taught like it was a book of the Bible - 'Murica was ordained by GOD himself because Manifest Destiny and behind ALL of it was the idea that America was great because of the noble White race. That's what they're really wrapped up in. They don't even hide it, they don't even have any shame about it. They don't even pretend.
I've personally challenged these types before and when you call them out because they can't even explain 2nd-grade level civics the first thing they ALWAYS fall back on is "MY FOREFATHERS."
This is White Nationalism's last great stand, or the reality-based version of democracy on this planet will go into remission.
