"People like you voted for Bill Clinton, you stood by Bill Clinton"
Ma'am, I was 7 years old the last time Bill Clinton was on a ballot.
My only feelings on him were I'd get mad when I'd come home to watch Days of Our Lives and my mom would tell me it'd been preempted by his sex scandal again.

Also big important redistricting in Huntsville? That set a SCOTUS precedent? Dismiss red states at your peril and understand who you’re abandoning when you do
I worked for both the House Dems in the AL state legislature and the Black caucus and those people worked harder with less than any blue state Dems I worked with

Just in the past 3 days, I happened to speak to an academic, a US politician and a former Biden official who had all received death threats and severe harassment from the MAGA movement. It's now a common experience. I am sorry MTG has to live through the same thing, but she can't be surprised
MTG: “.. “I am now being contacted by private security firms with warnings for my safety as a hot bed of threats against me are being fueled and egged on by the most powerful man in the world. .. The man I supported and helped get elected.”

The most telling thing here is that he doesn’t even consider Democratic representatives and senators legitimate enough to count. He just acts like they don’t exist

Yeah, those twists felt a little self indulgent because they were all orchestrated by the producers lol
I wanted to see plot twists the housemates created, like talking in code or Caroline nominating Zelah. Stir that pot. Get messy

This is so true! ITV2 skews soooooo young haha. It says something about this generation that someone as sweet and kind and wholesome wins #bbuk
The least ITV2 demographic winner ever. Amazing. #bbuk

So with Cameron at fourth, I imagine Jenny will take third and then Elsa and Richard fight it out for a win. If I were a betting man I'd say Richard wins but honestly I don't want to underestimate Elsa's appeal and TikTok fanbase #bbuk

Well, I'm glad Tate didn't win. And I'm glad Emily didn't come sixth. I do think a lot of the response to her has been unfair
But you know, I still don't care who wins. I just care who loses lol
Queen Teja is the rightful winner and we all know it #bbuk

It's weird because out of all of them I like Emily the best personally - she reminds me of a lot of my political friends in London, well the posh Tory ones anyway lol - but for political reasons I just can't back her to win, not given how political this series has been #bbuk
