Why bother.

I understand the concept of keeping track of what your enemy is saying, thinking. But for crying out loud, why does tpm have to inform us about what the very stupidest and most useless of them are saying?

After reading those Conservative responses I’m going with this diagnosis:

A belief or altered reality that is persistently held despite evidence or agreement to the contrary, generally in reference to a mental disorder.
From the acting president right down to the his last supporter,
Delusional

TPM tried to find some smarter and more useful pundits on the right, but they were - shockingly - unable to. Perhaps they all just took the night off.

(Joking - actually, truth - aside, I agree with you.)

Another great wrap up of the broad spectrum of Republican thought, from the inane to the nonsensical.

Gee, thanks TPM. Without this “article,” I might have had to go over to RedStoat or World Nut Daily to see what the RWMFs are “thinking.”

Does anyone at TPM remember that Dems – at least, the ones who were paying attention – complained about all the networks giving Deadbeat Donnie all that free air time? How is this “article” any different from that, in practical terms?

I’m happy to pay for a Prime subscription, but not when crap like this is put out.

Yeah, this has to be the worst thing I’ve ever read here (and there has been competition for that!)

I’m supposed to give a shit what Ronna Romney, Tomi Lahren, BillO, Laura teh Racist, Brad fucking Parscale think?

I am stupider just having clicked on this.

SMFH…

When confronted with the fact that everything Republicans say are just mindless talking points solely intended to fill their base with impotent rage to distract them from the jack zip they’re doing to fix anything, the best they can do is repeat those exact talking points while acting incredulous that anyone doubts the potency of their magic words. These people are beyond parody.

These punk-ass grifters and shills sound scared. They know the clock is running out.

Obviously Tomi Lahren, or whatever her name is, has no idea what “white nationlism” is. The rest of these people had some pretty clueless takes on the issues as well but that is normal.

They aren’t even funny…just stone dumb.

You know who else recognizes that? Unkle Vlad. Watch for the screws being tightened.

We can only hope that our intel community withholds info from the toadies and sycophants installed all around them. (god, that’s scary to even write…)

The same clueless rhetoric from the usual suspects. Lies are their specialty.

tweeted out that Harris slept her way to the top. Lahren’s getting dragged for it, but a positive side effect from the aforementioned tweet is that she’s the last person who should get any consideration.

Same goes for Diamond and Silk (Steve King fans) and Junior Trump (he retweeted a claim that Harris isn’t an African American).

And Junior knows this how?..

Diamond and Silk: the house coloreds of the tRump admin.

Some gritter’s tweet caught his attention.

He deleted the retweet, but the net is forever.

Conservatives haven’t done a single thing to help average Americans in the last 40 years. Who cares what upsets them.
