This woman is such an embarrassment to our people, we should all feel bad about.

Get your shit together, Georgia.

Look, we saved the entire fucking Senate by electing two Democratic Senators. This is just one rep from the podunk buttfuckery corner of the state. Give us a damn break!

As far as I’m concerned Georgia has gone above and beyond in the past few years for our democracy.

This shit stain is just a botched fart y’all trusted and need to air out and change your drawers.

Georgians trusted nothing. A few dipshits in Rome are the ones who not only trusted it, but are happy to wallow in the result.

We should really give Rome to Alabama, nothing but trouble

Yeah, each state has their own clusters of crazy. You can’t judge all of a state on a single rep. Boebert is from Colorado, for example. I definitely want my podunk buttfuck neighbors to be less idiotic in their choices, but the state as a whole is voting for the right people.

At least where it isn’t gerrymandered to shit.

I like to point out that, most recently, it's the responsibility of only 82,000 people in this country (total votes: 170k out of 258k) that has filled (it feels like) 82% of our news cycle with this person's barfhole. If you go back to her first primary win, it's 21,000. https://ballotpedia.org/Marjorie_Taylor_Greene

What I don't understand is why the losers are so widely celebrated?

[-] Pips@lemmy.sdf.org 3 points 1 year ago

Appeasement after the assassination of Lincoln due to Johnson's soft stance on Confederates. Basically moderates shit the bed and rather than wipe out the ideology, they let it fester and become "heritage."

If only it were that simple.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That's all the rules!
