Conservatism is a stage of fascism.
How does that old saying go?
If someone tells you who they are, you should believe them.
The dems should really impeach him for blatantly violating his oath of office.
Is that terroristic threatening? Sound kinda arrestable if you ask me.
- Not if you are a Republican though. The law specifies that.
  
  Oh yeah of course. GOP / MAGA = license to print crazy without repercussions = mentally deficient with serious voting power.
Coups are not good, no matter which side you are on. He would single handedly end America's dominant position as a world power. People would suffer and die.
All for what? So they can pray in school and install a backwards theocracy.
These so call3d Christians are a plague. Maybe they will get uppity and go colonize Mars or some shit.
- The religious bullshit is the lie to get support. It's money and power they are after. They want control over the law and allocation of resources. They couldn't possibly care any less about religion or they wouldn't be the complete assholes they already are.
Just another spit balling of "is this what MAGA wants?"
The article's picture even personifies it. These guys all want to be the cult leader next and are talking turns trying on the glass slipper. It only fits one dainty little foot though.
Anyone want to do some AI prompting here?
Why does it look like he is trying to grope someone?
He looks like the love child of James Corden and Donald Trump Jr.
What a traitor.
I see he's channeling the spirit of Ron DeSantis: clingy and just plain weird.
A Republican "Pick-Me." Ew.
When's the elegy for this particular wannabe-hillbilly career?
How many Republicans of the original 147 in the Sedition Caucus are still in office? There were many that voted for tiny d's coup plot.
Just because Vance doubles down should be no surprise. This is why I say that NO Republican should be allowed into office.
Would you say he is "giving comfort" to an insurrectionist?
- The entire Republican party are just "comfort girls" for Trump at this point...
