Greg Gianforte is an amazing example of a typical Republican

Unable to defend record
Unable to defend the fact that his policies hurt Americans
Quick to resort to violence
Hates the free press
Tries to play both sides
Quick to lie about events and policies
Thin-skinned
Angry
Dishonest
Favors destructive policies
Quick to blame others for his mistakes


Hope I live long enough to see the GOP get added to the endangered species list.

The same assholes who went fucking apeshit on that guy on Twitter that joked about the violence in Manchester are now joking about assaulting reporters. Neither one is OK no matter what the situation.

Why?

"Quist was slow out of the gate, taking a month to get a campaign ad on TV, and he didn't get financial backing from the national Democratic Party until halfway into the 12-week race."
