Wow, a nightmare for republicans that everyone is fairly represented. That would be so horrible, wouldn't it be?
Come on. PR should have been a state a long, long time ago at the bare minimum.
Man, that's the worst nightmare scenario? Fucking weaksauce. They'd still be breathing, instead of, y'know, put up against a wall and shot, like SCOTUS has ruled is perfectly legal now. As always, every word out of his mouth is self-serving bullshit.
I thought someone finally destroyed McConnell's phylactery. Did he have a second one hidden away somewhere?
His nightmare isn't imaginative enough. What if the Cancun Zodiak Killer loses to Allred? What if the Dems grow spines and fix the gerrymandering? What if they impeach bribe taking Supreme Court justices? What if they amend the Constitution to reverse Citizens United (hah, like any politician favors that)?
It's weird just how many things that are a Republican's nightmare are also in my dreams.
Hahaha, I had almost forgotten how good that face is. The eyes, the lip, the ears.. perfection.
He got enough time between TIAs to rattle off a complete though, eh? Good for him, so proud.
If this were true, I'd be tempted to drop everything and volunteer for the Harris campaign.
Recently Pete Buttigieg has been saying that Trump losing would actually be a savior to the Republican party. Currently Republicans who privately abhore him choose to support him because he is their ticket to power. If he is shown to lose 2 elections in a row, he would most likely lose his grip on the GOP, and you would see more adaptability in their positions.
I heard that when the GOP lost to Obama twice. People were saying the GOP would have to change to keep up with the demographic shifts. Boy were they right 🙃
Yeah, that's accurate. Been that way for quite awhile.

McConnell continued. "By the way, on packing the Supreme Court ... you may know this already. It's unconstitutional."
Alternative headline 'McConnell Admits Packing Supreme Court Unconstitutional'.
Oh, no, many of the things he did. What a nightmare. Won't anyone consider the plight of the male, pale, and stale. Oh the humanity.
Is that a promise?
Oh is he still alive?
I feel like they should be a lot more scared of getting shot by a bunch of crunchy purple haired anarchists or cringelord neostalinists who basically get off to giving them the wall after they push their shit too far and do our propaganda for us.
but maybe I don't have the best understanding of fear.
