Mark Shields Just Stop It - You Are Part Of The Problem

You talk about America being divided, and we can't start by saying "the other side is evil".

Newsflash.

Republicans ARE EVIL.

Who rips babies from the arms of mothers fleeing for their lives?

Who orders prisoners be tortured?

Who denies climate change is human caused?

Who wants every psychopath to own AR-15's?

Who worships Mammon above all else?

Who helps billionaires literally rob us, and wants to give corporations who murder their workers immunity?

You guessed it.

REPUBLICANS.

REPUBLICANS ARE EFFING EVIL.

The media should be talking about how evil they are, instead of repeating their Think Tank crafted bs talking points.

they are completely unequipped to deal with what we've seen for the past four years.

The rest of the shit they’ve done is just going down from there. And the ones who just pretended it wasn’t happening are Satan’s main helpers. Evil can only manifest when people do nothing.

NO... there isn't. And all the bullshit talk about having a dialogue with those people can't disguise that.

But...but...but... aren't some Republicans trying to undo trump's damage?
Damn few.. and if they can end their involvement with the Republican Party, maybe we can talk.

Let's NEVER forget that 90% of Republicans approve of trump. (Gallup)
90% of Republican women approve of trump.

He bought them...but now they own him. They are - and should - carry trump around their necks for decades.

During this pandemic, we can't hold each other.
But...
We can hold a grudge. And I intend to do just that.

I'm gonna memorize this. My favorite: "Think tank crafted bs talking points."

It's got to be said so loud and clear that Repubs and especially media parrots have to go sit down and think about what they've done.

end up believing a 20% minority with $5B a year RW/putin think tank megaphone ($1000/hour RW/putin infomercial x 1200 radio stations x15hrs/day ) is a legitimate constituency instead of a few hundred coordinated lying asshole carnival barkers on hundreds of locally coordinated unchallenged radio stations

unfortunately most of the democratic and progressive leadership is just as dumb about talk radio

just got better at what they do, LIE! And as far as the
progressive media, the anchors, aren't they rich didn't
they benefit by the tax cut? Just watch what the Rich
Dems do, they don't want to loose that tax break. And
as far as why don't the Repubs speak out, well I don't
hear to many Dems speaking out either, over 200
Dems in the house and 48 in the senate, where the
Hell are they? They should all be yelling. Remember
the Hero's Act, the Dems loaded it up knowing the
Repubs would not go for it, look what happened
the Dems bent over cause that''s what they do and
the Repubs know it. The Dems got a call from the
Hospital, yea, the spines they ordered are put on
hold because of the Covid.
