MTG: the GOP's own Mother Teresa

Yeah, yum!

Better than 8 years of broccoli and prunes.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 5 days ago

Better than cold McDonald's...

[–] [email protected] 29 points 5 days ago (4 children)

So obvious how the right keeps pushing the envelope to legitimize the current wackos. MTG was Loomer, just like Dick Cheney was MTG. One day MTG will be the "respectable" repub.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 4 days ago

MTG doesn't like that Loomer has Trump's direct ear. That's it. She picks fights with other republican women whenever she feels one of them is trying to be better than her.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Yeah man fuck all these weirdos

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 days ago

dangerous weirdos

[–] [email protected] 25 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Someone is jealous that another woman is getting Trump’s attention.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 days ago

You mean Daddy Trump? You know that's what they want him to be to them.

I am indian, i don’t like my culture or my people because they are corrupt and not self critical and they (both castists and muslims) generalize others alot, but thank you anyone who speaks out for us.

I'm sorry but this made me laugh out loud.

"There's only two things I hate in this world: people who are intolerant of other people's cultures, and the Dutch."

[–] [email protected] 13 points 5 days ago

Only the Sith deal in absolutes!

[–] [email protected] 10 points 5 days ago

I guess he's not completely wrong, after all.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 5 days ago

Glad I'm not the only one!

[–] [email protected] 39 points 5 days ago

[–] [email protected] 5 points 5 days ago

Buuut your cuisine is fricking good. So India at least has that

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago) (1 children)

I have a couple of good Indian friends and the stories they tell me about corruption are... absolutely wild. I mean, jaw dropping.

But, curious, what do you mean "not self critical"?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 days ago

Basically hyper nationalism has ruined us, and we never focus on our negatives (and there are alot of negatives)

[–] [email protected] 4 points 5 days ago

Corrupt and not self critical is a pretty accurate description of nearly any US politician - including MTG.

Speaking up was a rare win, but let's face it - she was probably just jealous Loomer was stealing her racist thunder.

[–] [email protected] 18 points 5 days ago (2 children)

She should one up her and say fried chicken curry....wait, is that a thing? Like chicken curry katsu? Now I'm hungry

[–] [email protected] 8 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Dude. Make it happen. That sounds fucking delicious.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 5 days ago (1 children)

As a Southerner I can confirm that is a thing and as curry it is delicious.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 4 days ago (1 children)

how does the breading not get soggy? this sounds really good

[–] [email protected] 5 points 4 days ago

You cook it separately.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 days ago

Watermelon curry. Nom nom

[–] [email protected] 9 points 4 days ago

Better than it smelling of Trump b.o. and farts

[–] [email protected] 8 points 4 days ago

We'd be better off if more places smelled like curry. Mmm... Massaman Curry w/ garlic naan.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 5 days ago

Even if it would, which it won't, what would it matter? None of the looney tunes who care about this would ever come close to smelling the White House.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 5 days ago

Ol’ Perjury Traitor Greed is just jealous.

SAD!

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Curry smells freaking great, tho.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 4 days ago

Not if you have to smell it day and night. Renting an apartment that was previously rented by an Indian family is a nightmare, not even an ozone generator gets rid of that smell

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 days ago

My office smells like beans some days and other days like pasta and other days like chocolate chip or even jalapenos. It depends on what smelly food I have for lunch.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 5 days ago

QAnon conspiracies dictating health policy is OK, but making incentives race jokes is too much. Got it!
