Looks like Tom’s all kinds of FAFO now.

Sucks to have the day you campaigned for.

    trump loves this, sitting on his throne while politicians (and business people and organizations) beg for help (or for him not to hurt them) while he gets to say “and what will you do for me in return?” or “I’m going to do you this favor. Some day I might also need a favor, you understand”

    Maybe he should stop whining about getting handouts and actually solve the problem himself?

    'Cause what he’s saying now is damn close to commie talk.

      I don’t really care about the hypocrisy. I care about the damage that they do to others and to their children and to their families.

      That being said, it is valuable to point out hypocrisy whenever it happens so that people have the information they need to potentially adjust their s***** political views and so that younger people can develop their own political views based on accurate information and analysis.

        I agree

        If their stupidity only harmed themselves, then they can have at it

        They hurt others though, and they celebrate that fact

        How many closeted kids of republicans have miserable lives without their idiot parents even knowing? How many go on to continue the cycle of misery?

        It’s an awful situation

    “Tell me… Do you believe in spy fiction?”, Cotton asked condescendingly back during Trump’s Russian collusion investigation. Stupid fucking cunt.

      As the duly elected pokesperson for the Midwest, that’s going to be a “nah” from us.

    Cotton is the same mental giant who kept insisting that Singapore and China are the same country

    (Edit: typo; meant that Cotton is a racist asshole that conflated Shou Zi Chew’s ethnicity with being a Chinese citizen)
