R/conservative is in shambles right now, it’s kinda funny to watch
It really is a cesspool, they're tripling down now stating immigrants are eating pets, kidnapping kids in pedophile rings and then cannibalizing their victims. Total nutcase stuff.
I saw Sarah Good with the Devil! I saw Goody Osburn with the Devil! I saw Bridget Bishop with the Devil! You can't fact check me! I WATCHED IT ON TV!
Is it wrong to poke the hornets nest? Probably. Is it funny, absolutely.
Their dear leader was literally named as someone that participated in a billionaire pedo ring!
It's just the_donald now.
The whole party got taken over by crazies, and all the normal people are realising and getting out.
Guess it's hard to argue about child starvation being a matter of personal responsibility when the person next to you is wearing a KKK hood with a swastika on it.
I still pine the hornets nest, both becuse it's funny to see them get more and more angry, and on the very far off chance that it convices those of them left
No. Unfortunately not. They are just shutting up about it because they're embarrassed.
Though that was one of the first steps the country took to move past GWB (though unfortunately they moved to the right)... People becoming embarrassed to admit they voted for and/or supported him.
I can speak from personal experience as the first presidential election I voted in was 2004 and at that time I had just begun my deconversion process from Evangelical Christianity, and I voted for Bush.
I still cringe when I think about it. And it was within 4 years that I had become a progressive atheist. So maybe we're not entirely screwed (though these people don't seem to have the ability to think rationally that came to me naturally).
What did they expect, he’s so old… why do they make him keep running?
It's my turn to say it now:
Doesn't he look tired?
This should be the newest hashtag on that old bird site, and needs to be trending.
why he trolling like a itch ain't he tired???
Actually, his eyelids were starting to droop towards the last 15min of the debate before his closing and while he was listening to Kamala. Slow and steady blinks. That man is running on drugs until he isn’t. Trump is tired.
Also, love the reference to doctor who.
