Of all the things I despise about conservatives, it's their hypocrisy that really sticks in my throat
I thought it was the raping.
I mean, it would be one thing if he saved people afterwards.
I don't really care about the hypocrisy. I care about the damage that they do to others and to their children and to their families.
That being said, it is valuable to point out hypocrisy whenever it happens so that people have the information they need to potentially adjust their s***** political views and so that younger people can develop their own political views based on accurate information and analysis.
I agree
If their stupidity only harmed themselves, then they can have at it
They hurt others though, and they celebrate that fact
How many closeted kids of republicans have miserable lives without their idiot parents even knowing? How many go on to continue the cycle of misery?
It's an awful situation
Sorry Cotton, I don't think the Northeast needs to bail out Arkansas.
As the duly elected pokesperson for the Midwest, that’s going to be a “nah” from us.
Fuck him and Sarah Sanders too.
Eventually, people will stop noticing and this will be normal.
MAGAts can all eat shit and die. The sooner, the better.
Best thing they could do to Make America Great Again.
The best they can do is breed faster and get dumber and more belligerent.
Braise geshus.
Tom Cotton is a trash. I remember this guy from Mayflower oil leak. Literally tried to hide the whole disaster. Place stunk like shit for months.
"Tell me.. Do you believe in spy fiction?", Cotton asked condescendingly back during Trump's Russian collusion investigation. Stupid fucking cunt.
Thoughts and prayers :3
Maybe he should stop whining about getting handouts and actually solve the problem himself?
'Cause what he's saying now is damn close to commie talk.
What a tool he is.
Bold move, Cotton. Let’s see if it pays off.
trump loves this, sitting on his throne while politicians (and business people and organizations) beg for help (or for him not to hurt them) while he gets to say "and what will you do for me in return?" or "I'm going to do you this favor. Some day I might also need a favor, you understand"
Aww, eat shit
Cotton is the same mental giant who kept insisting that Singapore and China are the same country
(Edit: typo; meant that Cotton is a racist asshole that conflated Shou Zi Chew's ethnicity with being a Chinese citizen)
They are two different countries.
Correct, they are two different countries and Cotton is a sack of shit. I fumbled my words and fixed my original reply to clarify.
Pretty sure you meant aren't …?
Yes sorry. Thanks for catching my terrible typo. I corrected my post above.
No worries, I was not sure what you initially meant. 👍🏻
