Oh yeah. And the inevitable he or she “throws under the bus [insert group].” Retribution is something we should eschew.

You got it. A lot of purity progressives want to leave her to the maga wolves. She’s fighting for something we are all fighting for! Support her. Or other repubs who want to stand up will see that when they do, we hurl insults at them too.

I strongly applaud this kind of courage. Now is not the time to comb through her past for things we didn’t like. She is now standing up against the wrath of the trump regime, and fighting for an extremely important issue: the release of the Epstein files. Hopefully others follow her lead.

Wow! My jaw actually dropped. I’m pleasantly surprised, but have been admiring her chutzpah in standing up to the wrath of the Dumpy regime.

Same! George Lakoff described taxes as dues for living in a civilized society. How I see it, especially state and local taxes. It’s why our NJ schools are so damn good: #1.

Every day, I remind myself that, some day, in the not too distant future, this grotesque being will no longer fill our daily discourse.

Well put. He swooped in to endorse a weird no-name challenger to our 1st term, very successful Dem mayor here in Edison. It didn’t work, but it was offensive seeing his and the challenger’s fliers in the mail all the time. Like, stay out, oddball. He tried to do some insurgency but failed big.

Happy to represent. I had to scroll back up several times to make sure this was a request for board games. Most people listed games I never heard of.

Ha! My dear grandmother introduced me to many of these games. And Clue was my own family‘s game of choice. I even bought the retro 1980s edition last year. Lols.

I could see him pivoting out of the party, if he thinks it will help him. I could be wrong.

I’ve long thought getting her to quit (or get fired) would be time and money well spent. She has helped dumpy avoid full imposition for all too long. Now even she can’t hold back the dam.

Yeah, won’t happen. And if it did people won’t even connect it. Remember all those Biden stimulus checks? Spiked inflation and he still dropped in polls. Dumpy won’t do it though I could see a 100 check right before repubs get blown out of the water in midterms.

🙋♂️ I knew he was a dick before everyone else knew he was a dick (same re Fetterman and tulsi, rfk jr…). To be fair, it wasn’t hard to figure out.

They said this before 2020 too. We can and will win. The tsunami is already building. Bannon Is a drunken buffoon, drumpy has severe and progressing health problems (and is in the 30s approval-wise), Vance has the charm of a regurgitated muffin.

I’m too refuse to subscribe to the sky is falling. We just won big last week. There was a lot of pundit talk that Sherrill was blowing it and maga Jack would win. Sherrill won by 14 pts. People are pissed at trumpism. We can prevail.

Yep. And he has an insufferable smarty pants way of speaking down. His only electoral victory was that of mayor in South Bend. Yet he speaks as if he is the brain and heart of the entire party.

I agree. And I say it as a white dude, also conventional lib. MTG is doing something that requires courage and a sense of justice. What she is doing here and now deserves support and respect.

Well put. I agree. When we see someone attacked for doing right, we shouldn’t dig back to point out all the previous wrongs.

I give her credit for standing firm on this. How many other repubs are? Massie? But he doesn’t get the misogynist shit that she does. I’ve got empathy for her here.
