    Pretty hopeful news actually.

    MTG is among the most seemingly dedicated to being a horrible, bigoted piece of shit, and yet even she is recognizing that a platform of being a horrible, bigoted piece of shit is no longer serving her.

    Fuck her forever. But I’ll take this specific brand of opportunism as a positive sign.

      No it is happening because it is close to the election. Would be fucking wild to yet again convincingly prove they are incapable of governance while just weeks away. Even this hollering gibbon can see that. Any other time she would be doing the usual racist MAGA bullshit and refusing to cooperate.

      Ill be honest, ill take it. But im so confused right now… is this how progress is supposed to happen? Its been so long. I didnt draw the line, they did, and still here we are. At something reasonable?

      Still. I must reiterate, fuck mtg, but… support her this time? Fuck.

        I think her deal is being outrageous, and the republican party has been pretty outrageous as of late, meaning she’s nothing special anymore. So, she’s just doing whatever gets attention now.

        Edit: read the article. She’s giving the whole game away. She must be MAD.

      This is the difference between a normal racist and a high functioning racist that knows a failed state can’t effectively oppress the people.
