That might make a good slogan on a raincoat or something. What do you think?

Since they all consider Donald Trump to be the example of an effective administrator, I’d say their observations are worthless.

Obamacare suffers from Obama’s good-faith negotiations with the Republican minority who repaid his efforts with not a single vote. We would have markedly better healthcare today had he simply said ‘fuck you’ and steamed ahead without them.

Any conservative with the knowledge, insight, and real-world orientation needed to actually make a valid criticism of the various positions taken last night got run the hell out of town once the GOP threw up its hands and welcomed Trump as its new insect overlord.

Not sure what’s worse about Twitter, the ability of anonymous derelicts to spout nonsense at no one in particular, or the ability of loud, proud, named and branded derelicts to buy verification that the nonsense spouted is, in fact, theirs.

So many lies in one small space. A veritable black hole of untruth.

How many Republicans remember that the constitution and 2nd amendment were written when a gun was a single shot muzzle loading rifle or pistol? Not a machine capable of killing dozens of people in seconds.

No argument there, but no need to cede political ground to those shitbags now.

Perhaps, maybe I’ll catch the next one, but these things are usually boilerplate and anodyne talking points that win over few voters. I’m going to vote for the Dem who takes out their wrecking ball to use on Trump and the GOP and sounds like a real leader.

I might watch this one though. I assume ABC has it on its web site.

Who gives a Fuck what these Fascist Assholes think?

Every one of them can disappear from the face of the planet and the world would be a much better place for it.

They are Shocked, SHOCKED I TELL YOU to see Democrats staking out Democratic Policy Positions.
FUCK THEM SIDEWAYS.

Not to mention the fact that Republicans have somehow magicked the entire first half of the 2nd Amendment down the collective memory hole.

Yep. Record player. If elected, every home will have a coal-oil lamp, a washboard, a cast-iron kettle, and a new set of horseshoes! You go Joe…remember: Joe 30330! https://twitter.com/KFILE/status/1172333180084375554 …

So…this doesn’t really matter, all things considered, and I didn’t catch that part of the debate, and I’m not exactly a big Biden supporter compared to the other candidates, BUT…

I’m assuming, based on these responses, that conservative talking heads will catch up with the vinyl resurgence sometime in 15 or 20 years maybe? Maybe get hip to DJ culture in 30? I understand the generally used term these days is “turntable” rather than “record player” but sheesh…

I consider the periodic TPM posts from the Right Wing Nut Jobs to a useful service since I don’t follow any of those folks and don’t watch Fox.

Well they assume that militia is freedom loving citizens that will bring down the Democratic, er I mean anti-freedom govenment (never mind that all they’ll have are guns and the govenment will have planes, tanks bombs, rockets, etc.) and return the USA back to freedom, well except the freedom to not be hetrosexual, or non-christian, or non-pro-life, etc…

Good point. As I read through those Tweets, I kept thinking that Conservatism as a movement must be dead if this is the group that speaks for them.
