President Biden: The NEW one and only politics thread

And …

 

This is a stunning read on the Jan. 6 riots. Highly recommend it to everyone. Seems complete, very plausible and likely, and no holds barred, on everyone's part, as even Trump's kids tried to get him to stop the madness. And he refused. Everyone in the country should see this story, from The Atlantic, today's edition.

What Republicans Really Thought on January 6

 

Too late for what? Trump is an idiot, and this is just another idiotic tweet by him. The man is demented, frothing at the mouth, and should just be ignored, and banned from social media completely.

 

Glad he cleared everything up

 

She was asked if she would accept the result, not accept if it the result was the loss -- Bash was trying to get her on the record saying she would accept the result; so then how can you go and complain the rest of the voting is fraud when you win. Like every other race was tampered with but they left hers' alone fair and square.

 

I will happily vote against this asshole for the second time when my ballot shows up. He's a total empty suit, trying to replace a legendary, effective congressman.

 

Walker probably thinks he’s cleared to take command of a passenger jet because the flight attendant on Delta gave him some plastic wings a few years ago.

What a fucking moron. I’m not naive enough to assume there haven’t been plenty of dumb-as-a-box-of-rocks senators elected through the years, but if he wins he’ll have to be in the conversation for dumbest ever.

 

Let me now sing my praises

 

Suddenly, armed guards were racing to
McConnell, hurriedly escorting him out of the room.

JFC, what a fucking shame.
Collateral damage, c'mon, dammit!

 

Hoyer, still furious, started lecturing Scalise
that the riot was the GOP’s fault for enabling Trump.

“This isn’t the time for that,” Scalise retorted. “Right now,
we need to get the chamber back, secured and open.”

When will the Dems learn how to punch hard, too?

“Fuck you, Scalise! Your fucking people
are trying to fucking kill us! This fucking moment!
What fucking time is the right fucking time for addressing that?”
