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

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?
