    Republicans doing Republican things. This is the expected outcome of the shitty ideology that is conservatism. It’s always “Oops! All Assholes!” with conservatism.

    If this guy thinks this most mild of criticisms means he will be accepted back into the lives of normal Americans, he can fuck all the way off.

    So he’s only saying this now because he’s not up for re-election and has a book to sell, not because he intends to do anything to fix the situation?

    He can fuck all the way off.

    Still, Tillis mostly deflects full blame from Trump, saying, “my beef is not with him, but the idiots he’s got working for him.” He calls the president “an amazing political talent.”

    :facepalm:

      That quote was quite enraging, as well as this one:

      On his vote for Kennedy, Tillis writes that “I guess it’s easy to say now, but I’m the one who has to live with that vote and all the havoc Kennedy’s tenure has caused the country as a result.”

      All Americans gotta live with your vote, asshole

      I guess I kind of agree that he is “an amazing political talent.” But only in the sense that I’m absolutely amazed anyone falls for his bullshit.

        He’s only a ‘talent’ to cretins that have no idea what talent is. He only appeals to the most basic tastes. Like Ed Sheeran or Taylor Swift.

    And this asshole MFer will vote for him again and any other pedophile scumbag as long as they have an R by their name.

    It almost makes me wanna say Dems should take a play from their book and start running as R and switch once they win.

    This is so stupid. Trump hand picked the guys to do exactly what they’re doing.

    If only someone had tried to warn you…

    If actual smart people tell you not to do something and you do it anyway, you don’t get a redemption arc. You get a “go fuck yourself” arc.
