    What’s wrong with your house smelling like curry? It’s delicious. Better than smelling of hamberders and old man farts.

      Yeah, I can’t even begin to imagine the smells Biden had to deal with right after moving in.

        People are saying they had to use an industrial autoclave any of the furniture they didn’t toss because of Donald’s diaper leaks.

        Seriously, if Trump isn’t the biggest argument against American exceptionalism, I don’t know what is. The fact that anybody could call the US “the greatest nation on Earth” after he was president is absurd.

    I’m going to need a source that MTG called out racism. That is some alternate dimension shit. The only reason I can think of is that maybe because the racism specifically was about Indians and JDs wife is Indian or she has a significant Indian population in her district. That is the only way this makes sense.

    Goddamn but I never thought I’d live to see this line. The line that is too far for her. I really hope I’d be dead by now. I don’t want to live in a world where she’s not the furthest most extreme crazy I can think of. Sometimes you live too long.

      The line that is too far for her.

      It’s outside the Overton window right now, but get ready for it to be normal and mainstream in another five years.

      Ya, we haven’t even gotten close to that line for her. This is a staged attempt of her white washing her and the GOPs reputation. She can now point to this when people say she is racist and “look at how I called out racism”.
      The ridiculous part is just how overt and gross the racism had to be for it to even be slightly plausible that she would be offended by it.

      Perhaps you have jumped parallel universes to a better, more sane one. I know I’ve jumped universes at least once. Unfortunately it was from a normal sane universe to this dumpster fire timeline.

    It absolutely represents both Trump and MAGA.

    What this is is MTG seeing the potential writing on the wall and slowly trying to sneak her way into more normal speak so she doesn’t get fucking tossed out the door on her ass with the rest of them if Kamala wins and the “normal” republicans begin to purge their party of MAGA losers.

    She’s essentially thinking “I’d better start toning down my shit, just in case.”

      I predict a massive loss for the GOP, all the way down to dogcatcher. Imagine all the politically ignorant voters that will show out to vote against Trump and will mark D on all the races they know nothing about. Then there are those of us who are politically aware and are marking straight D’s, because fuck all this nonsense.

      You are spot on about the coming purges. Blood. Bath.

        I hope so. If there is a god, the one I want to see lose the most is Ted Cruz. I’m so sick of his smug face. He gives the rest of us Canadians a bad name. We’re sorry we sent him to you.

    If you’re a racist it’s occasionally useful to throw another, more obvious racist under the bus to build up your own cover.

    Fuck both these people.

    the White House will smell like curry

    Like, the whole building? The entire 55000 square foot structure including meeting rooms, studios, gardens, sex dungeons, document store rooms, janitor’s closets, tailor suites, all of it?

      The thing about the far right is it tends to get out of control and ends up eating its own. Politicians give it momentum and by the time they want to put the brakes on, it’s no longer theirs to stop.

        It’s the political extremism ouroboros - any political ideology that is based upon hate inevitably ends up eating itself as they need to keep inventing things to hate and eventually turn inwards. I love to see it.

        I’m pretty sure this is exactly it. If Trump were killing it to the point they knew no matter what he would win she more than likely wouldn’t have said anything.

    Considering that Trump and Loomer were chilling together before and after the debate, I’m pretty sure that they share a lot in common.
