That guy baffles me every time I read of him. Is he made of dumb or does he think everybody else is?

Nevermind. His voters don't care, so the latter it seems to be. Or both.

[-] zzzz@lemmy.world 25 points 9 months ago

He appears to be mentally ill.

[-] nrezcm@lemmy.world 15 points 9 months ago

Yeah we know he's a Republican.

I love the one where he's being interviewed and the question is about what you do for Thanksgiving or something, his opponent is like, "oh yeah just good times with the family, we always get Haagen Dazs ice cream for a special treat." Then Santos is asked and he's like, "oh yeah I love those good times with family and Haagen Dazs ice cream, such a special time every year."

Found the clip it's amazing

That reminds me about that special time of the year. We always get Ben & Jerry's, because it's clearly superior.

By the way, I'm right back, I need to... uh, check the freezer for Russians. Yeah, not ice cream, Russians.

Oh there's no taste like Haagen Dazs for the holidays...

[-] banneryear1868@lemmy.world 1 points 9 months ago

Sweatpants and Häagen-Dazs

Clearly enough other people are or he wouldn’t be where he is.

He saw how Trump conned his way to the office of the president of the us and he did the same to get into congress.

That sounds strange when I think about it, but Trump seems less insane. Dumb, cruel, immature, greedy, etc, sure. But less insane.
