16. I Can't Help But Weep for South Carolina.
Tue Nov 24, 2020, 11:26 AM
Nov 2020

Seriously...Lindsey Graham has got to be the biggest dumbfuck to grace the Senate since Rick Santorum. And that's WITH the likes of Ted Cruz and John J. Kennedy (the "J" stands for "Jackass from Louisiana" ) "serving" there with him.

And South Carolina somehow thought it was a good idea to KEEP that idiot in the Senate??? I don't fuckin' GET IT!

Perhaps Lindsay should peruse the Constitution "one more 'gain," as some like to say in his home state. Maybe he'll realize that even with Biden/Schumer/Pelosi in power they can't just unilaterally kill the Electoral College. It takes a Constitutional amendment, which requires near perfect unity from state legislatures and both houses of Congress.

Dude...stop trying to scare folks and instead explain how you pulled a 12-point win out of your ass despite most polls showing a virtual tie and turnout through the roof...

Tue Nov 24, 2020, 11:56 AM
Nov 2020

Why must the Democrats always to be the ones to extend a hand of unity only to have it slapped away?

Was my biggest criticism of Obama. Always trying to make nice with McConnell and Paul Ryan and they basically gave him the finger repeatedly. Then for the last four years, McConnell has not let any major bills Pelosi's House has passed go up for a vote in the Senate.
Also the underhanded Senate approval of Amy Barrett after refusing to confirm the Merrick Garland appointment.

But we have to play nice and unify. I'm so sick of it.

Knowing rump though as we all do, since he’s going down, I wonder if he won’t find pleasure in revealing where all their skeletons are buried once he is dragged out of the White House. Lindsay might think that if he remains very vocal against the Democrats, Trump may not be as vindictive, but I wouldn’t bet money on that if I were him.
