@AdamKinzinger So MAGA definition of “showing great respect” is to stand in front of the world and give a perfunctory shake of the hands to a guy who’s hanging a medal around your neck. I saw no warmth, I saw no effort to do anything but the minimum. No conversation, etc. Just dignity.
@chraiders@86_45now@Elizabe57370385@ossoff Exactly! That’s his pattern. He knows whatever outrageous statements are made he’s got the power of Fox News, etc., etc. behind him. And he knows how much his followers love his lies. That’s why he hates Zelenskyy so much.
@Lawrence That may be so, but I’ll never forget that gang of disgusting bought and paid for women sitting with Trump at the time of his debate with Hillary. And I’ll never forget Paula Jones makeovers, new wardrobe the whole bit. We have women who would give their first born for Trump
@juliettekayyem And worse, it put many of us who are just starting to follow soccer, and who were enamored of the US team, in the terrible position of, while wanting them to win, it would’ve come with a twinge because of Trump‘s stupidity. Even if they won, it would’ve taken some of the joy.
@gregalmonte_@atrupar Yes, you should be able to be like a Rep Congress person. Get tons of salary, healthcare, inside trading. Have a big staff paid for. Walk around with an entourage. And wait for your marching orders from Trump so that you know how to vote. Get rich, making oligarchs richer.
@general_ben@TheRickWilson I was re-watching “The Pacific” last night about World War II and it made me physically sick to think about Hegseth at the Pentagon. What an insult. What a slap in the face to the Armed Forces. Can’t they see this?
@washingtonpost He learned that after 61 court cases that he lost, to satisfy his worshipers he doesn’t need evidence. For this we will never see evidence because there isn’t any. His true believers will be out there spouting his claims forever. It’s up to the MSM to hold him accountable.
@BarbaraAnnStein@TheRickWilson You’ve said it perfectly. We know his worshipers will buy anything. Because they want to. But when you see Pirro and Ingram, etc. promoting this insane conspiracy, completely made up, not only with zero evidence, but with evidence to the contrary (not on the cameras..,,,
@ScottJenningsKY I can’t stand Scott Jennings, but right now all I can see is his comments on the vandalism which he absolutely knows to be complete lies should be a firing offense. This isn’t innuendo or difference of opinion, but an outright lie that he is spewing onto the public & he knows it.
@Timodc@RJC Anyone else think Vance‘s planned, written by speech writer, response when it was suggested he had no experience in negotiation with tough adversaries, he brought out, ha ha, he was on the view with Joy Behar. So unbelievably lame. He didn’t pull it off well at all.
@RocketVnus@sentdefender You’re giving him credit for some sort of rational thought. He pulled out because he hates Obama and wanted to stick it to him. That’s it. Period. If you need further proof, just look at the so-called deal that he’s just signed.
@brhodes And ask him why he didn’t keep the JCPOA while negotiating something that he considered more lasting or whatever blah blah blah he was talking about. Why he didn’t was obvious, Obama hatred. He wanted to do the same thing with Obama care, promising something better in”2 weeks.”
@mwolfers Anything that she said, like the stand by your man comment which Republicans insisted was a rebuke of country music, and the deplorable comment was seized on by Republicans, and both sides of the press ate it up and fed on it. The liberal press hated her.
@LadyofAllusion@JoJoFromJerz The difference is, he doesn’t have Trump‘s malignant charisma. It’s not transferable. The cult won’t necessarily be so stupid as to follow everything that happens and make excuses for it.
@gtconway3d@realDonaldTrump If I lived in New York, I’d vote for you. Sadly, it doesn’t look good for your election. A lot of people have preconceived ideas. I’m sure you know. The never Trump Reps have done so much more for us than the Dems have. However please please keep doing what you’re doing.
@neeratanden@tomwatson I think Chris as well as most of MSM understood deep down how much more interesting and easy in fact their job would be if Trump got into office. They did in fact, have plausible deniability by their outward supportive Hillary. But they weren’t sorry and we are all paying for it.
@atrupar His handlers and fluffers are willing, as long as they’re getting what they want out of him, the useful idiot, to let him open up his big stupid mouth and yap all he wants. They know how ignorant and cruel his followers are and that they’re willing to put up with anything.
@mollybr59678386@TheRickWilson It definitely is about a private army. He has ICE as one component. From the early days of the campaign, he always talked about having the.” tough guys.” on his side. This is part of that. And by definition, they are thugs and corrupt, but easily bought.
