Top Trump Anger

The Republican thread is about watching the trashfire that is the Republican primary and toasting some marshmallows. Its chill because no one actually cares about any of these enormous assholes so its jokes all round. Can you imagine if this thread was infesting by genuine Cruzite and Trumpeteer partisans?

Haha yeah man it'd be real weird if there were any Trump supporters on here. Thank god we can just feel the Bern from the frickin Republo tire fire.

Living in a hateful world sending me straight to Heaven

quote:

Roe certainly hasn’t lost his edge. In February 2015, nearly a year after Cruz had hired him, he produced a radio ad attacking a Republican primary candidate for Missouri governor named Tom Schweich. Roe was an adviser and friend of Schweich’s main GOP rival, Catherine Hanaway. The radio ad—which aired only a handful of times in the lead-up to the GOP’s annual Lincoln Days celebration—mocked the physical appearance of Schweich, who suffered from Crohn’s disease which kept his weight around 140 pounds, comparing him to Barney Fife, the bumbling deputy on The Andy Griffith Show, and painting him as a weakling. If Schweich were nominated for governor, the spot vowed, Democrats would “squash him like the little bug that he is.”

Even before the ad aired, Schweich had been fighting a war inside his own head. He believed that the chairman of the Missouri Republican Party had spread false rumors that he was Jewish (Schweich was Episcopalian, though he had a Jewish grandfather). Schweich wanted to out the chair as a liar and a bigot, but his closest friends advised against it, leaving Schweich feeling personally and politically isolated. (John Hancock, the chairman, told me he may have mistakenly said Schweich was Jewish, but doesn’t specifically recall doing so.) A few days after the ad ran, Schweich fatally shot himself in the head. The spot had been formally sponsored by a group called Citizens for Fairness in Missouri, but after Schweich’s death, Roe told a local reporter he had produced and paid for it as a response to Schweich’s attacks on Hanaway.

The odd true believer stopping by is part of the show, but a thread full of actual Trump/Cruz supporters is not something I would want to interact with directly and I thank the people brave/masochistic enough to brave the wilds and bring back quotes for the rest of us.

Agreed on the shrieking purity contests being awful though. The best part of splitting the primary threads was being able to watch the Republican battle royale without having to scroll by a wall of Fishmech posts and people using :shillary: as some sort of unironic burn.

No matter what Sheldon-A does, the right wing doesn't like the Jews. Unless they're Harid Israelis with hair like the cover of a Weird Al CDs.

Sure, they'll hobknob with the chosen ones and even vote them onto the board, but the base doesn't seem all that happy about us killing Christ. I mean, it's been 2000 years, get over it.

The right wing doesn't care that you killed Jesus they just can't come out and admit they think Jews run the world banking system and fabricated the Holocaust (for the record, Jews don't run the world banking system, a variety of people who all act like stereotypes of Jews do, but that's too much nuance for them to handle)

They worship a zombie Jew yet hate Jews. I will never figure that one out.

I swear he said "down the tubezors" at one point but i can't find any evidence. This election is literally giving me dementia or something so it is fully possible I dreamt it after thanking God that I'm a young white male with no dependents and masturbating profusely to anime.

Palin says he got PTSD from Obama sending him to Iraq. Vets are pissed because she is using PTSD as a scapegoat for crime, and they found his job was driving a general around with no actual combat time. He was court ordered into the military for a year in 2008 before Obama was even sworn in.
