Show some frickin' respect, dude!

This guy sold boats to Joey Fatone from NSYNC, a guy who banged Snookie from Jersey Shore, and Tim Tebow's cousin! He's super rich, goes on awesome vacations, and is a complete badass who will snap your neck if you look at him the wrong way.

If he says you're nauseating, you should cease to exist immediately.

Asking a democrat what hate speech is:

Saying something factual and true, and they hated it

One of the failures of the last ten+ years is that people think that more people saying things that are not true, makes those things true.

What specifically was "real" about it? Was it Hunter Biden's laptop? Yes, he admits that it was. It was alleged that it had all sorts of proof about corruption by Joe Biden. Did I miss a story or Congressional Committee that identified all this alleged corruption, thereby making the claims "real"?

Oh, wait....

"A joint investigation by two Republican Senate committees released in September 2020 and a Republican House Oversight committee investigation released in April 2024 did not find wrongdoing by Joe Biden with regard to Ukraine and his son's business dealings there."

The laptop was real but once again, Trump and his stoolies tried to make something of it that it was not AKA "not real" as in "what the GOP said the laptop was turned out not to be true".

Lost, of course, in every one of Elmer-Fudd-in-a-Jos-a-Bank-suit's fruitless rambles into various thickets, is that not only do those things take up finite time in which the government might actually be doing something, they are undertaken on your and my dime.

I am sure that there have been things said in the mainstream media that were lies, or wrong, or lacked the full scope of details to provide perspective. But if you cannot see the difference between that and the firehose of purposeful toxic lies spewing out of the GOP messaging machine then it's because you just like to argue nonsense.

You cannot have a candidate of Donald Trump's level of unworthiness without convincing people that he is the savior of all the problems, both real and imagined, that they have convinced people exists even though the vast majority really do not exist.

It's cute how the liberals on this board all started using the word "weird" at the same time as the social media movement. So brainwashed

I can only speak for myself.
Trump has always been a psycho narcissist.
Child-like in his thinking.
A near complete idiot.

The Harris movement has me moving toward joy and hope.
I say weird more when describing the Right, as it feels better than what I am thinking.
