They're all melting down...

MTG called Laura Loomer racist and demanded she take a tweet down because "president trump doesn't support racism".

They literally don't know what to do and all it took was putting a regular human barely under retirement age next to trump and her just existing.

[-] meco03211@lemmy.world 44 points 1 month ago

But she existed menacingly!

[-] JeeBaiChow@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

And approached him uncomfortably right from the start!

The scary thing is that, despite not knowing what to do, they still have a realistic chance of winning. Which is causing me to melt down...

[-] ObstreperousCanadian@lemmy.ca 42 points 1 month ago

Genuinely surprised and disheartened to learn that Karl Rove is still alive.

[-] pyre@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

turns out turd blossom is younger than the orange turd

[-] ultranaut@lemmy.world 37 points 1 month ago

I never imagined I would agree with Turd Blossom about something but Trump has made it happen. We really are through the looking glass!

[-] Coelacanth@feddit.nu 15 points 1 month ago

Like the Lincoln Project said, who'd have thought it was actually Donald Trump who brought us all together?

[-] Tylerdurdon@lemmy.world 36 points 1 month ago

Wow, that's pretty damning. I'm no "Hot Karl" Rove fan, but he was the preeminent Neocon strategist, and no dummy. For him to slam the orange one like that...

[-] jordanlund@lemmy.world 27 points 1 month ago

In the Wall Street Journal of all places...

Honestly pretty tired of the people who helped create a world that would lead to this decrying the world they created.

Nah, fuck him to next Sunday. He is saying it because its politically expedient for him. He can still eat shit. Jon Stewart has it right. They can all fuck right the fuck off.

The people behind attitudes like this are not to be trusted. When they show you who they are, believe them the first time.

The aide said that guys like me were 'in what we call the reality-based community,' which he defined as people who 'believe that solutions emerge from your judicious study of discernible reality.' [...] 'That's not the way the world really works anymore,' he continued. 'We're an empire now, and when we act, we create our own reality. And while you're studying that reality—judiciously, as you will—we'll act again, creating other new realities, which you can study too, and that's how things will sort out. We're history's actors...and you, all of you, will be left to just study what we do'.

That's commonly attributed to Rove and he is describing the firehose of falsehoods.

Trump said Harris stole his philosophy and political leanings ... then one sentence later called her a Marxist.

So what does that make him then?

[-] SnotFlickerman@lemmy.blahaj.zone 30 points 1 month ago

A fucking idiot.

[-] MeekerThanBeaker@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

I really wish she called him out on that. "Which is, Donald? Am I stealing your philosophy or am I Marxist?"

But ABC just moves on to another question before she can respond.

[-] boydster@sh.itjust.works 28 points 1 month ago

"Karl Rove is a RINO" incoming...

[-] kescusay@lemmy.world 19 points 1 month ago

If they try to RINO Turd Blossom himself, there won't be enough popcorn in the world for the party fracturing that would represent.

[-] DarkDarkHouse@lemmy.sdf.org 10 points 1 month ago

OK well now I support that kind of fracking.

[-] vegeta@lemmy.world 25 points 1 month ago

The dog ate his prepared notes

[-] PP_BOY_@lemmy.world 33 points 1 month ago

Remember, Republicans were bragging about Trump not preparing for the debate

[-] DocMcStuffin@lemmy.world 24 points 1 month ago

The dog ate his concept of prepared notes.

[-] kescusay@lemmy.world 15 points 1 month ago

The dog ate his concept of a plan to have prepared notes.

And then JD Vance ate the dog.

[-] EmpathicVagrant@lemmy.world 12 points 1 month ago

And then RFK found the dog on the side of the road and ate it.

[-] SGG@lemmy.world 13 points 1 month ago
[-] DarkDarkHouse@lemmy.sdf.org 8 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

An immigrant ate the dog who ate my book report! Trump always reminds me of a kid in front of his class trying to wing it.

[-] ChihuahuaOfDoom@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

I bet a Haitian could get those back for him.../s

[-] solidgrue@lemmy.world 12 points 1 month ago

Always good to hear from Ol' Turd Blossom


Nevertheless... both Cheney's and now Rove? Can W be far behind?

[-] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 4 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

It's a good thing Kissinger is dead or I'd have to vote for Luke Skywalker again if he endorsed Harris.

[-] Countess425@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

W's office has already said neither he nor his wife will comment on how they're voting this election.

He wrote in "Condoleezza Rice" in 2020.

[-] Objection@lemmy.ml 8 points 1 month ago

If he's lost the Holden Bloodfeast demographic he's finished.

[-] Today@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago
[-] JeeBaiChow@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

He didn't win. He's avoiding another round because he got his ass beaten so bad he doesn't want it to happen again. Please america, make it happen it again in November.

[-] JeeBaiChow@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

That's pretty much accurate lol.

[-] casmael@lemm.ee 2 points 1 month ago

Well well well how the turntables
