I don't even know where to start with this utter moron.......
Honestly, I wish he'd hurry up and sacrifice himself.
Pro life party, my ass...when it suits them.
If we are not alive, what the hell else matters, you don't know you're dead.

(4,661 posts)if there wasn't enough room in a lifeboat for all of us, and my staying out would mean they could all fit. I'm 75, not ready to die, but at least I've lived.
But my death plus thousands of others does not equal saving the country. Only if the lifeboat holding Drumpf and his minions tips over will we save the country.

(40,212 posts)It is about controlling women and maintaining patriarchal power. It is misogyny and its purpose it to keep women from gaining equality.
These people care about money and power. This is who they are. They have shown this to us many times. And we should believe them.

(63,221 posts)Then YOU and all your republican buddies get out there first and show us how brave you are. Go ahead. Have parties, have rallies, get out there and meet the public. Show us how its done.
Before the general public is released back into society en masse, I want to see every single republican politician out there shaking hands and greeting people, hugging and kissing people just like they normally would in a pre-Covid-19 society. YOU GO FIRST!
