The Politics Thread

[Juliajms]

The Republicans will do anything to discredit Fauci just because he is in favor of vaccination. It's beyond the pale. I very much doubt that someone at his level is involved in these run of the mill experiments.  Meanwhile, would these same people even care or raise a fuss if they couldn't drag his name into it? If Nancy Mace really cares why not introduce legislation to make it illegal?

I agree. I don't care much for Alec Baldwin on a personal level, but I hope he is being looked after carefully and getting immediate mental health care. These monsters always target the vulnerable.

So, in a move that should shock absolutely no one with a modicum of class and taste, I saw on Twitter that Donnie Dump Junior is now hocking T-shirts mocking the death of Halyna Hutchins having been shot by Alec Baldwin.

There is no bottom to these things. (Can't call them people.)

I hope, should Ms. Hutchins' husband get wind of this, that he will sue for emotional distress to himself and his son.

As a fellow Ohioan, neither will I. I keep getting those awful spam texts from his campaign on my phone, despite me blocking the number(s).

I too hope her family (and Alec Baldwin himself) sues that awful creature. Only the lowest of the low, those with no feelings would do something like that. It's absolutely sickening.

How heartless can you be, you and your big money backers, to step off your damn yacht long enough to demand that poor people not even have dental care?????

[amybrickwallace]

Carl, I couldn't have said it better myself. It's infuriating. He can just sail away on his yacht and never come back to DC for all the good he does.

Some of it he's since indicated he's malleable on. He just loves puffing his chest out for West Virginia. There's going to be cuts, but I think folks who follow every one of his grand declamations only make themselves crazy at this point. Manchin is above all noxious performance art.

[amybrickwallace]

You may be right, but I still don't trust him. I won't believe any of this until the President actually signs it - if it ever happens.

I don't trust him in the slightest, but he does have patterns. He's also shameless. Case in point:

Speaking out of both sides of his mouth.

Where is his humanity and shame?  Why does he run as a Democrat if he's not willing to help the party?
