Now some dems are fighting dirty like the gop and they are upset .
But day are day of lies from Trump lies and lawsuits to prevent Americans from understanding what happened on Jan 6 and others in congress support his lies and are complicit. Get not outrage posts from Jim


Clearly one behavior is a bigger danger to America and it’s not Halloween costumes and silent protest




Basically they got punked by people in Halloween costumes and tiki torches.

They just stood there.

I will agree it was tasteless.

And these 5 people don’t represent anyone but themselves

a democrat group did the same exact thing to the tea party when they first gained steam. i’m sure you do t want to talk about it, it doesn’t help your agenda to talk about it.

the question stands. when group a is willing to plant fake racists in the ranks of group b, how does group b defend against that? it’s a fascinating question. unless the phonies get caught, i don’t know how you defend against it. in this case McAuliffe pounced on it, saying his opponent was courting white supremacists. somehow they got caught.

i think it’s newsworthy that people
who don’t want republicans to win, are resorting to this. it’s at least the second time it’s happened.

I have no issue with people with there F biden flags of go brandon nonsense I am embarrassed form them.

I do have issue with elected officials in the halls of congress spewing such vitriol

like On Thursday, Republican Rep. Jeff Duncan of South Carolina was seen sporting a "Let's go, Brandon" face mask. Duncan shared a photo of himself in the mask on Facebook


or another Republican, Florida Rep. Bill Posey, ended a speech on the House floor in which he talked about frustrations with the Biden administration's agenda and legislation with a "Let's go, Brandon!" and a quick fist pump.

and then Texas Sen. Ted Cruz, no stranger to memes, he posted a photo from Game 2 of the World Series with another Houston Astros fan whose sign reads "LET'S GO BRANDON" in big bold letters.

GOP has become the Jerry springer show ..

The Republicans have been playing games since far before Gingrich and the Tea Party.
Nixon’s campaign with his staffers, Pat Buchanan and Roger Stone. Hey, Roger is still around.
Then Lee Atwater and Karl Rove, though even Karl Rove is upset about where the former Republican Party has gone now.
And don’t forget TFG and the birth certificate.

The five in Virginia were all well trained in Republican dirty ops.

exactly! that’s all it is. that’s why McAuliffe is polling so far ahead.

the current t executive branch has a president who’s a liar, a plagiarist, with a rape elevation against him and god knows how many admission of weird sniffing and touching. The VP sucked her way to the top. Hollywood invented awards to give to Cuomo. AOC and Omar and Talib are completely out of their minds.

we can’t all be as normal
as the democrats.

they’re very quick to point to an anonymous conservative acting badly and painting us all with that brush.

you have a prediction for tuesday in VA? going to be interesting for sure, probably closer than anyone was expecting. that loudon county superintendent, you have to wonder if he’s a republican plant. he did for the gop, what the cops who killed george floyd did for the democrats . a massive political blunder. but he’s still the superintendent. amazing.

“Those who have had at least one shot of a coronavirus vaccine, a significant majority of likely voters, support McAuliffe by 14 points. Those who have not received even one vaccine dose back Youngkin by 77 points.”

you want a box of kleenex? or a box of tampons?

If McAuliffe loses ( which i doubt) it’s because of his asinine, totalitarian statement that parents have no say in what their kids get taught ( in schools those parents pay for). the unvaccinated didn’t force him to say something that stupid in public. He was comfortably ahead until he made that inconceivably stupid statement. that’s his fault, not anyone else’s.

oh then he brought in a lawyer famous for contesting election results, then they tried to bury the fact they brought him in. again, does he want to lose? or is he that stupid?

VA isn’t a purple state. It’s a blue state, Biden won it big. This never should have been close.

The democrats are letting AOC and the radical
progressives lead them
right off a cliff. what works in CA and NY doesn’t sit well in swing states. i don’t know why that’s so hard for democrats to figure out. if they could be moderate, they’d win big. but they can’t. they made the same
mistake during the obama years, they went way too far to the left of where americans live. Trump derangement syndrome
made that way worse, you’re a living, walking example
of how deranged that is.

It’s data from polls, but you’re pretty easily triggered aren’t you?

It always brings out the teenage girl in you
