@ardentdialectic@ryangrim Those that actually look deeper then find out that he said a bunch of stupid shit on Reddit. But, it wasn’t Nazi shit, so it isn’t likely he’s an actual Nazi, just a dumbass soldier.
@ardentdialectic@ryangrim Nah, I just think that once they know, they give him the benefit of the doubt on knowing because they wouldn’t have known either, and soldiers get stupid tattoos. Plus, he got it covered up. Most probably don’t look deeper than that.
@johnlk_80@speechboy71 If she’s lying about the abuse allegations, it’s because they’re the strongest she can give without some sort of records. Some sort of documentation would exist if a bone was broken. Or something in the diary she was apparently keeping and handed over. Or maybe there’s only…
@johnlk_80@speechboy71 Because it’s been a decade? She wouldn’t have needed to do specific research, just recognized the symbol if she came across it later. As to why I think a Republican operative would lie about a Democratic Senate candidate? That’s been a pretty common theme in the past.
@Heminator The guy openly declared himself a Republican, and focused his campaign on Fox News and right wing media. He was never campaigning to convince LA voters. Caruso did better last time because he actually put in the effort to convince the people voting.
@usefulmammalian@SadVikingsFan84@greendragonhq@ZeekArkham The demonstration is happening right now. Pratt’s vote share plummeted once mail votes started being counted. Its not zero but most Republicans voted in person, and a lot more Progressive/Liberals voted by mail.
@SteveKrak The instinct is to dunk on how bad at running he was. He was running in LA and decided not to drop his Republican registration, and talked primarily to Fox News and right wing media. If he genuinely wanted change, there are basic things to do in a deep blue city.
@johnlk_80@speechboy71 Not finding him particularly credible doesn’t automatically make the Republican political operative that supported Kavanaugh credible. I think they’re both motivated liars.
@johnlk_80@speechboy71 Because, I genuinely don’t find someone with her background particularly reliable. If they had talked about it then it probably would have shown up in some sort of evidence much sooner, especially with her handing over her diary and text records
@NickGers1776@MikeInacay Caruso was smart enough to at least switch to independent before running, then dem in 2022. Pratt announced he was a registered Republican, wouldn’t be switching, then started talking to Fox News and Maga influencers. If you’re going to do well in LA you can’t seem Republican
@JBatoom@JordanUhl Nah, look at the transcript, or listen to it. Its pretty vague. She never says she was conceding and thanks everyone in the room regardless of how the selection goes. She knows she’s not guaranteed to advance but leaves it open
@magi_jay The Nazi tattoo would have mattered because it was evidence that the person had Nazi ideology. But, even if he lied about when he knew the tattoo was a Nazi symbol, there’s no evidence he’s a Nazi even with the unhinged shit he posted to Reddit. Thats why people don’t care.
@JBatoom@JordanUhl People definitely knew her. She was already elected in the city and knocked out an incumbent to get there. But even without that, LA is just an extremely Dem city. If they don’t think the current mayor is doing well, their protest vote won’t go to Republican. It’ll go to 2nd Dem
@fartbuttjr@TheReformRepub1@edmundlee@LuluGNavarro He stepped in front of the vehicle to fire. If she’d tried to run him over then the world would be a better place but she didn’t so he got a chance to murder her.
@ArmandoNDK …lose, but Mills is too old to run the kind of campaign needed and doesn’t seem to want the job. Anyone else is open to accusations of the party being anti-democratic and rigging the election like the bullshit they were accused of with Harris.
@ArmandoNDK I think Paxton actually committing crimes with more verifiable evidence matters. But, I also think that voters that care about issues can easily campaign for Platner and against Paxton. I also think that Platner is an asshole and still the best odds Dems have. He can easily…
