Because Republicans have been the literal worst for decades and put party over country any old day. So long as they have someone they can work with to get rid of abortion access and cut taxes on the wealthy they don’t give a shit about anyone else. Like republicans couldn’t even muster enough empathy to consider…

It’s because they don’t really care. They’re just happy he’s actively placating the shitty ideas they’ve been itching to enact while the country was being run by a relatively rational adult.

I agree. We need to stop looking at what Hillary did “wrong” and start focusing on how to reach the moderates- the conservatives looking right now in abject horror. But voted Republican because abortion or Jesus or something.

The character was.

I have always been annoyed by Venom.

Yeah, no. They’re suing to protect all the Joshes of the world.

This article made me feel a little...sad? I don’t really know. I have empathy for Comey

Pro-tip: Calling people by nicknames that they neither use nor have invited you to use comes across as sleezy used car salesman tactics at best, and presumptuous and passive-aggressive at worst.
