      That is exactly who is in charge of the Republican Party now. It’s a bunch of assholes like Vance who spent their teens and twenties on 4Chan and have remained in that bubble and think that’s what everyone finds funny.

    This is not criticism but is there a possibility we can get away from X? I feel dishonest with myself for navigating to that shithole.

    Poor woman, btw. Either you become a funny meme or ridicule meme, and she happened to be the latter.

      I hate it, that’s why I didn’t link directly to it. But I also want to expose these weirdos and their disgusting behavior whenever possible, so I think linking to it in the body was a good compromise.

      But yeah, I generally only go to a single post directly that I see reported on elsewhere to take a screenshot or watch a video if there’s absolutely no other way to watch it. I avoid it otherwise.

    By the way… the person he’s using to badly dunk on Harris with? She contemplated suicide after that happened and she became a massive punchline.

    That is so fucking sad. I absolutely dunked on her when this came out.

      😅I secretly found her relatable because I would 100% glitch out on a stage like that in front of that many people. I’ve presented in front of like 100 people before but not thousands.

        Haha now absolutely! I have given talks (virtually) in front of no more than 300 folks, and I glitch out and can’t remember what to say… Frequently

      I did too. I feel terrible about it now, but I also don’t do that sort of thing anymore. All I can do is move forward.

      It’s sad that people can’t learn that lesson in elementary school. So many lives destroyed by unempathetic teens.

    Lmao, okay. Kamala is literally [checks notes] Caite Upton, former model for Donald Trump’s modeling agency, participant in Donald Trump’s beauty pageant, proud graduate of the Donald Trump School of Public Speaking, fervent antivaxxer and unapologetic MAGA supporter.

    Get fucked, James Donald David “J. D.” Bowman Hamel Vance.

      Perfect.

      Maybe she and other women will finally realize that T**** and the GQP fully embrace and encourage this behavior by men towards all women.

      I should have some empathy but I’m deciding not to because she obviously doesn’t care about all the hate and harm that her fellow T**** supporters have caused others.

      I choose to embrace the Schadenfreude.

      Support T****? I will laugh when your face gets eaten.

    This from a guy who bumbles his way through every speech, and can’t even interact with donut store employees like a normal human. Pot, kettle and all that

      The contestant from South Carolina butchered her answer to the questioner so badly, essentially running words together that made no sense, that she was pretty heavily ridiculed by anyone who saw it. The clip was replayed for effect on YouTube videos and other venues. It went pretty viral for a while, maybe 10 years ago, and it sounds like the poor girl was pretty embarrassed by it and of course, had a hard time getting away from it considering how prevalent and brutal social media can be.

      You should probably watch it just to get the gist of the magnitude of her bumbling, but maybe don’t share it. Spare the girl any more pain. As Tosh.0 said, “Why are we asking them questions again?”
