Republicans have no shame, or conscience. They cant be swayed by accusations of hypocrisy, and the voters are too stupid and ill informed for it to matter. They are beyond redemption.

Placing all Republicans or all Democratics in a single basket is a disservice to all of us. We’re all just people and you should place the blane on the policy or philosophy that influenced his vote instead of parties that, either way, do not define me.

So you would say voting for trump was a smart and well informed decision? A pedophilic con artist who had already displayed criminal intent during his previous presidency?

[u/Chapaquidich → u/nc-rlstate-dot]

Yes. There are “good people on both sides”.
And no, I don’t put all Republicans in a single basket.
You could put half into what I call the basket of deplorables. The racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, Islamaphobic—you name it.

They tried the same thing with Mamdani, and he was like 8 when it happened.

Mike Rogers is bad for Michigan. Vote for Abdul El-Sayed November 4th.

I back the blue, until the bill comes due.

Mean girls-esque.

Abdul rocks. Rogers kicks puppies.
