They've been spending the last 40 years clawing for power and sliding whoever they could into the seats of control

The libs basically ignored this

Sure. They made fun of them, but in the end that's all they're capable of

Laughing while the world burns down around them

I posted a Bluesky thing by Patton Oswalt who is really angry about Gaza. Angry as in - people didn't vote for Kamala because of Gaza. In the comments somebody linked to a Youtube vid of a vid he did when Obama was president. Not only was he clearly over the moon about Obama many of his jokes were sour and third-rate when he made bashed republican voters. He said the n-word too.

I'm no fan of republican voters but if in the future leftist candidates somehow make huge gains on a federal level and the GOP lost big plus I was a standup comic - I wouldn't bash GOP voters. I'm feeling grand, they lost, and politics isn't sports so why do it?
