Members Juliajms Posted May 4, 2022 Members Share Posted May 4, 2022 I tried to read his book and I could not get through it. Being lower middle class and seeing poorer people as the enemy is so obnoxious to me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted May 4, 2022 Members Share Posted May 4, 2022 JD Vance is one of the most repulsive figures I've ever seen in politics - not only is he the epitome of swarthiness and looks like he will keel over at any moment, every word out of his mouth is clearly a lie, amped up for extremist backers. The Trump endorsement and weak primary competition meant he had an easy path, but even then he struggled to put it away. And he wears more mascara than a drag queen. Chinless wonders like this triumph because the GOP always sticks together, while the Democratic Party has the lieks of Joe Manchin, who tanked any real chance we had this year. Here is Rob Portman, cheering on the man who will probably put his son in a camp: Speaking of which: 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Cat Posted May 4, 2022 Members Share Posted May 4, 2022 @Ponds Thank you for posting that. I know it must have been very hard. Please register in order to view this content @DRW50 posted that link showing "next, Brown v Board" and my stomach flipped upside down. 'Fascism in its legal phase' was how I saw it characterized somewhere a few months back. Codifying the pecking order where *some people* have more rights than others -- and over others. At this point a semi-automatic will have more rights than a black, gay, and/or female body. What a rotted, rubberstamp 'institution' the SC now is. I am furious (at myself mostly, and scared) that we took our eye off the ball and didn't try to think outside the box how we could possibly counter this clearly-telegraphed assault on our constitutional rights. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Juliajms Posted May 4, 2022 Members Share Posted May 4, 2022 The fact that someone feels entirely comfortable spouting such evil is chilling. Hell, he was bragging about taking away children's rights to an equal education. Shameless bastards. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DRW50 Posted May 4, 2022 Members Share Posted May 4, 2022 I don't know if you ever saw this but your comment reminded me of it. One of the few pieces of political comedy I have enjoyed in a number of years. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DramatistDreamer Posted May 4, 2022 Members Share Posted May 4, 2022 I hope I didn’t miss it, but I would love to hear the rundown on the results of the race between Shontel Brown and Nina Turner from @marceline. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DRW50 Posted May 4, 2022 Members Share Posted May 4, 2022 You haven't. I'd be interested too. There's been a lot of push today by Nina's media allies to push her as the oppressed victim of the system, but this was a blowout. Nina is apparently going to grift for President in 2024 rather than try again. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Vee Posted May 4, 2022 Members Share Posted May 4, 2022 There are definitely some people I know elsewhere with convenient amnesia about Turner. I laid it on pretty thick when she got stomped. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
