Rick Wilson: "Doug Burgum is Pence without the smoldering sensuality"

[spooky3]

Just now on MSNBC

😁😁😁

[PatSeg]

1. Ha, ha, ha!!!

[kimbutgar]

2. I saw him on TV and he's creepy!

Pence had a smug punchable face but Burgum is gross and has a face one would run away from!

[Walleye]

3. He is creepy, but he's rich and he won't look better next to Trump

[Skittles]

5. I am assuming he is not a veteran?

Cadet Bonespurs would be jealous of a veteran.

[emulatorloo]

4. What a way w words.

[emulatorloo]

6. "and the edge of sexual danger women find so irresistible"

Doug Burgum is Mike Pence without the smouldering sensuality and edge of sexual danger women find so irresistible.

[Lonestarblue]

10. What?! Pence and smoldering sensuality cannot be uttered in the same sentence without loud guffaws.

An edge of sexual danger women find so irresistible? Who on Earth is he talking about? Every woman I know thought Pence was a brow-beaten dweeb.

[spooky3]

11. It's satire/sarcasm. Nt

[Raven123]

20. Yep. Still laughing about that one.

[calimary]

24. Maybe it's the fly on his hair in that photo I saw...

[leftieNanner]

38. Oh! From what I heard

The fly thought Pence was HOT!

[NBachers]

29. That's alright - he's got his wife for that.

[Xavier Breath]

7. That fly sure picked up on the smoldering sensuality. n/t

[whathehell]

8. TBH, I don't really care for trashing people's looks,

I mean, Rick Wilson's not exactly a portrait of "smoldering sensuality" either...Just sayin'.

[spooky3]

9. To be fair "smoldering sensuality" is about much more than looks.

In fact Pence is a rather handsome man, and Burgum isn’t bad looking, imho, with the eye of the beholder caveat.

Wilson was making a different point.

[whathehell]

12. Really?

What point do you think he was making?

[emulatorloo]

23. The point Wilson makes is that Burgum is dull and boring as hell.

Try googling ‘sarcasm’ and/or ‘satire’ maybe?

P.S. being dull and boring has NOTHING to do with physical appearance.

[whathehell]

27. Try googling ""No shit sherlock"

It was hardly a question of recognizing "sarcasm" or failing to recognize it,
It was a matter of recognizing its
subject, and I'm sorry, but whatever the literal meaning of "smouldering sensuality", in practice, it's rarely attributed to homely individuals.
Now you go and have a nice one.

[emulatorloo]

28. Being Dull Has Nothing To Do With Looks. Attractive People Can Be Dull.

I don't really care for trashing people's looks,

Go ahead, keep on digging that hole

[whathehell]

40. Um, but the word "dull" was never mentioned.

Sorry, honey, but as explained, we ARE done here. Bye.

[Hekate]

13. Nothing to do with the 2 men's features, & everything to do with their drab, repressed...

… sex-fearing personalities.

It is satire.

[whathehell]

15. I'd say that's open to debate..

You can say whatever.

[Hekate]

16. And I shall. Whatever. Seriously, do you not know Pence's version of Christianity includes...

…a belief in gay conversion therapy, and a rigid injunction that he must never be alone (eek! ) with a woman? That when he met his wife-to-be she was a divorcee, and he made her repent before they could marry?

So he becomes VP to Trump with all these kinks in his psyche — and a nation suddenly turns to the Lord in prayer, “Oh please don’t let Pence become POTUS ! “

This is satire begging to be born. But you do you.

[whathehell]

17. That's good, and yes, I certainly do know about Pence

You have a nice "doing you" day.

[emulatorloo]

25. "Doug Burgum is like Mike Pence without the smoldering sensuality. This is not an exciting guy."

"Doug Burgum is like Mike Pence without the smoldering sensuality. This is not an exciting guy." @TheRickWilson sounds off on Trump VP hopeful Doug Burgum #sundayshow

Get it now?

P.S. Still has nothing to do with looks.

[whathehell]

39. Lol..You might be more inclined to "get it" if

you'd bothered waiting for a response to the post you originally sent me...If you had, you might realize that your misinterpretation was already explained and that we are simply done here. Buh bye.

[chowder66]

21. It's about appeal and in this case the lack there of. Not looks.

[whathehell]

43. Yeah, uh huh, okay, whatever..

Can we give it a rest now?

Yours is about the 6th post I've received in response to a brief, innocuous post of mine that, for reasons unknown, seems to have hit some bizarre nerve.
At this point, I am QUITE done with explaining, defending, whatever.
Whoever doesn't like my posts is quite free to put me on Ignore.

[Hekate]

14. That is hysterically funny

[Kid Berwyn]

18. Professional Storytelling

[Hekate]

19. Wilson excels

[malaise]

22. He lies bugbtime

Like his gawd
Disgusting scumbag

[calimary]

26. Wait - what?

What did I miss? Did Burgum win the trump VP board game? Is he “It”?

[spooky3]

37. No, capehart was just speculating to invite comments

From his guests.

[NBachers]

30. And we have people taking issue . . .

[rubbersole]

31. MOTHER!

The mean people are back!

[czarjak]

32. Rick was in lockstep with Hoosier Daddy at one point.

We. Were. The. Scum. For not being conservative and Republican.

[emulatorloo]

34. He. Has. Atoned.

[czarjak]

42. He's admitted the truth.

Nothing to do with atonement.

[tetedur]

33. Is he Trump's pick for VP? If so, how much did he have to pay to get the offer?

They say he is worth $100 million so he can afford to pony up.

[Collimator]

35. Burgum puts me in mind of Sid Caesar.

[peggysue2]

36. LOL!

I know Wilson isn't popular in many Dem corners but the man does have a talent for the memorable phrase. And he's funny.

I know little about Burgum but I understand he has quite a bit of money. But then I read Trump didn't care for his 'look', too unattractive.

Ironic, no? When Agent Orange is about as unattractive as you can get.

[EndlessWire]

41. Hahaha!!
