Republicans baffled by Katie Britt’s State of the Union response: ‘One of our biggest disasters’
Republicans baffled by Katie Britt’s State of the Union response: ‘One of our biggest disasters’
The 42-year-old Alabama senator is a rising Republican star but her kitchen table speech did not land well even in her own party
You're viewing a single thread.
The absolute terrible acting here will not be picked up by the South. That very reflective Jesus Cross around her neck is an obvious prop. All the fake crying in the world won't derail those people. Sickening.
Fortunately, there are only a handful of states that actually have a chance to alter the outcome and several of those states will have a lot of conservatives going "wtf was that?" Ohio, Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin are the four I expect would see the most suppressed republican voter turnout from this train wreck of a speech
I've lost all faith in conservatives to think logically or use common sense.
Believe it or not there are still moderate ones out there, they just have shut up because they're embarrassed
But they call themselves "common sense conservatives"! What more do you want? Gosh!
If they'd stop voting for psycopaths simply because they have an R next to the name, that'd be greeeaaat.
The general election is still eight months away. No one will remember this train wreck by then, since there'll be all new ones.
The decision to stay home on election day isn't made of a single event. It's a chain of them that demoralizes someone into apathy
Deep south Louisiana here. Recognized the fake sincerity in both her awful "I'm a good Christian wifey" voice and her "fake fake fake concerned" facial expressions, the fake automated and often inappropriate smiles. Yuk.
I'm sure this will fly right over the heads of Evangelical/Fundie idiots, because that's all they've ever known. But those of us who've dipped our toe into the waters of a wider world are noticing, and we are not being fooled at all.
Even some Republicans down here noticed...my neighbor asked me if I saw her "little talk in her kitchen" and called it a shit show. She's not wrong, but I don't think she even knows to what extent.
Tens of millions of women are angered by the overthrow of abortion rights and her "mommy and wifey" as her primary role in society is going to anger them further. The Republican woman is being shown as submissive with little value to the party; she literally belongs in the kitchen! That's a big no-no to many women, even some Republican ones.
