For one we have this:
'Chutzpah on top of audacity on top of delusion': Nicolle Wallace slams Jordan's weaponization committee
Former Sen. Claire McCaskill (D-MO) called it a "clown show" that welcomed apologists of Vladimir Putin who refused to even answer questions from Democrats.
...................
Rep. Gerry Connolly (D-VA) agreed with the assessment.
"We began with a rousing presentation from two old guys who apparently wanted to vent every grievance real and imagined they've experienced over the last 20 to 30 years," the congressman mocked. "And that really set the tone and the -- you know, part of this is also historical [event]. The notion that the FBI is filled with a bunch of lefties who want to go after conservatives in America and right-wing elements in America, boy, that would be news to the FBI. That would be a new historical trend entirely, because the history of any kind of use of the FBI is theother way around, right?"
"I believe the Democratic strategy is a fairly straightforward one -- tell the truth, and, you know, fill your testimony and your responses and your question lines, with the facts. And, you know, repeat, repeat, rinse and repeat," he said. "Make sure there's a narrative and truthful and fact-based, unlike what my friends on the other side of the aisle are trying to peddle."
He went on to say that things aren't going well for the GOP, calling out the "train wreck" in the oversight committee that established the opposite of what they were seeking.

Then there was the SOTU:
Madge is the clear leader of the GOP now.
Madge, the howler monkey, stood and made a complete fool of herself. You can see she went to great pains to look her best for the camera, hair, fur collar and thick make up that looks like it was applied with a spatula. Utter foolishness and a huge failure.

Now she goes on Twitter and Fox complaining about all the nasty pictures that are being posted of her on the intertubes. Boohoo, Madge. F**K Around and Find Out!

GOPers ramp it up, with more child like behavior.

(1,093 posts)It would be so easy to stop all the 'harassment', that I can't believe she hasn't figured it out. All she has to do is stop opening her yap and letting all the stupid fall out. Easy, Peasy.
I mean, last week she had a sad because she had a job. Gee, cry me a river, honey, I got one too. Again, easy - go home and quit.
Of course, both of these solutions would remove all the attention. I don't know if Betty Ford has a program for that kind of withdrawal.

(22,577 posts)The comparison of Marge to a howler monkey is absolutely spot on; however I'm 99% sure that despite the strong physical resemblance, the monkey pictured above is a baboon, not a howler monkey.
This is a howler monkey:

Of course, it can certainly be argued that Marge looks a lot more like a baboon than a howler monkey!
