You can support Trumpcare and be a good person if you don’t understand it.

Could a reasonable person think climate change is a hoax? No. Obviously not. We should be done after this; a party willing to entertain this obvious lie about a threat to life on this planet should forever walk the empty wild, because they clearly care not even a bit about the truth or other people. But regardless:

This is in such hilariously bad faith.

There are not Republicans who are both smart and kind (unless they .identify as Republican while working exclusively against the political success of the GOP). There are some kind Republicans who don’t know anything about their platform, and some vicious ones who fully understand it, and a lot in the middle, but the…

Goddamn liberals calling for violence! I demand that the Democrat Party revoke Rand Paul’s membership!

“But you can’t prooooove there’s a causal relationship. They might just be two totally separate things being considered simultaneously. [endless fart noises]”

Or people whose positions are so vile that “You have to take literally every political position seriously” is the only argument that gets them a hearing.

One is already running the small business division of the...Commerce? Department.

Obama objectively improved their lives and they are too racist to acknowledge it.

When the fact that anyone disagrees with you can be taken as confirmation of your claim, you might have a flaw somewhere in your reasoning. Self-confirming statements about the world are few and far between, and it would be truly remarkable if “The American left and right are both equally terrible” were one of them.

I mean, if all you have on your side is objective reality, you’ve basically got nothing, right?

But when Bernie Sanders is being held up as an example of hateful rhetoric from the left, it’s pretty clear that the whole conversation is a farce. He is, quite explicitly, talking to the people who aren’t excited about politics by focusing on the policies he’s passionate about. That is what you’re saying is good, and…

Took one look at Trump’s interior decorating and noped right out.

Little Kushner keeps a framed page from it in his office because he’s actually much dumber than he looks and may be illiterate.

When Democrats are in power, you have to be able to separate the man from the office.

“You know he only hits you when you act up, and it embarrasses us so much when that happens...”

“As a Republican, though, I am the most selfish person in the world. Get fucked, libtard, and stop all the vulgarity.”

People who admire nazis — which at this point means Republicans in general, given the company kept by their party leadership — find it threatening.

You want civility to come back? You want real candidates to come back? You want conversations and debates about policy and not about fucking “scandals” to come back?

And that campaign came after 8 years of calling for the opposition president to be lynched. Plus, y’know, all the “defense of liberty” dirty talk every Republican politician has to do to satisfy NRA gunfuckers.
