Something tells me Vance is more qualified for sofa covering than health coverage

How stupid has the populace become that they can’t see this high school bullshit.

Sounds like they want a round of layoffs but don’t want to pay severance.

The primary argument against the death penalty are the sheer number of people who were executed in spite of later being found innocent.

Just because it doesn’t apply in this particular case doesn’t mean anything needs to change.

The legal system does not have 100% accuracy.

On a day when JD Vance effectively admitted to another fabrication, as well.

This not only screams BS but makes me question other similar events which seemed to have perfect timing and a nice photo op.

Spin on a spin at this point.

But then how would I get my breakfast beer? Only at an airport do you get the plausibility of being accustomed to a different time zone.

In all seriousness though, this is the classic “blame the person or the tool” argument.

I’ve seen this one. This is the one where a bunch of Republicans are like “I’m a never Trumper” and then a month later they’re all on the floor kissing his feet.

Someone needs to just start mimicking all this MAGA nonsense à la the Onion, but maybe with more specific references.

"BREAKING: Dozens of lifted pickup trucks covered in cult symbols show up at Trump rally. Parking lot is filled despite only 1-2 people per vehicle. All of them appear to wear identical hats.

Why do these weird sightings only occur at Trump rallies?"

Now for extra fun: consider how different the attacks would be if Kamala Harris were a male candidate, with all other factors as close as possible (age, race, background, etc.)

You wouldn’t be hearing about how he “slept his way” to the top. You wouldn’t be hearing about how his “handlers” had to feed him information because he isn’t capable of debating on his own without prompting. You’d still be hearing a bunch of bullshit, to be sure, but it would be different bullshit.

The next time someone on the right tries to deflect or muddy the water with “bUt caN You eVeN giVe a sPecIfic eXampLe AboUt hOw tHe RePubLican party / MAGA / Trump Is seXiSt?”, all you must do is point to the kinds of lies they naturally fell into about Kamala Harris.

What those higher up in the party think of women, and what the rest have chosen to align themselves to, is on full display.
