Thank you. If Republicans were opposed to Hegseth they'd all be calling him "Humping Hegseth" in Bawdy terms and the kinda-news jerks at the NYT & WaPo would be snickering along as would morning Joe and everyone would know what the fight was about instead of reading some ChatGTP stuff about "unfit"

The Democrats wake up every morning and have their lunch money stolen on their way to work by Republicans. The fucking morons won’t even take a different route to work.

I'm so sick of liberals "playing nice" about this shit.

"But Our Principles" bullshit is what got us into this fucking mess.

what would you have them do? i would have the senate leaders hold news events talking about how trump is trying to install an (alleged) drunk abuser of women to lead the military and secure our enormous nuclear arsenal. but instead im getting fucking lectured that im too g-d mean to democrats.

“He’s a TV talking head with alcohol addiction and self-control problems, who has a history of sexual misconduct, who paid to settle a rape accusation, and who the military thought couldn’t be trusted with company command. His admitted personal acts alone are sufficient grounds for a court martial.”

“This is a man with no respect for the military. No respect for the institution, for its laws, for its culture, and no respect for its officers and NCOs. He is a man with contempt for everything that has kept this country safe and our allies secure.”

i would at least like to see them act as though the threat we face genuinely is as grave as they make it sound in their fundraising emails

Take away the drunkenness and sexual misconduct, and you are left with a completely unqualified nominee, worst in history. #Hegseth

I'm trying to think of one time in my life where Democrats actually went full force attack mode in opposition to something bad and I can't think of a single instance

Yes. The man's own mother wrote a letter explicitly calling him an abuser. Any politician who can't make appropriate use of that is in the wrong line of work

I think people would recoil less if you criticized democratic leaders by name and not “the democrats,” a group which includes, among others, you.

owillis.bsky.social•100 days ago

except i specifically call out democrats and they whine about that too. pelosi, jeffries, biden, etc. there is no pleasing blue maga mindset.

when Trump needed to get his [stupid] message out during COVID he held press conferences *EVERY DAMN DAY*

There's no reason Ds can't do this now

There's no reason they can't run commercials the idiot nominees

We were told it's an existential crisis, they act like it's business as usual

madhominem.bsky.social•100 days ago

*commercials ABOUT the idiot nominees

The could openly confront Joni Ernst for her support by pointing out not only is she a combat veteran, but someone that has talked about her experience as a sexual assault survivor, and she’s going to bat for a man that openly despises her very existence.

But of course not.
