See, most candidates are fine seeing Palestinians suffer, but our boy Pete oversaw the suffering of East Palestinians as well

The moment when the DNC leadership knew he could go all the way.

[–] SpiderFarmer@hexbear.net 17 points 2 months ago

Jeesh, that's powerful in all the grim ways.

Beard? Twink death is real

Beard? Twink death? Oh god, someone check on Chasten.

trump had an all-timer quote recently about Mayo Pete lol

[–] Dessa@hexbear.net 18 points 2 months ago

Him riding to work on a bike with his loving husband just makes him sound good to me.

The "no clue" part is true though

[–] Biddles@hexbear.net 7 points 2 months ago

How is he so funny 😭

[–] blunder@hexbear.net 6 points 2 months ago

Buttidedge has no clue. He drives to work on his bicycle with his, in all fairness, with his husband on the back, which is a nice, loving relationship. But he didn't have a clue, this guy.

Oh boy! I can't wait for libs to call me a homophobe for not voting for him!

[–] Sinisterium@hexbear.net 13 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Half of the libs complain about white gays being the weakest link anyway or exceptionally misogynistic. They need to pipe down.

If this rat man or Newsom get ran as the democratic candidate. The dems will lose so fucking hard again.

Honestly getting so sick of this shit. This party needs to be torched and thrown in the wind. The title "democrat" is so fucking radioactive at this point.

[–] marxisthayaca@hexbear.net 18 points 2 months ago

a-little-trolling many people are saying it. Throw the democrats into the dustbin of history

[–] crusa187@lemmy.ml 8 points 2 months ago

Please, for the love of all that is sacred, let the Dems die and be replaced with an actual leftist party.

Repug vs repug-lite has literally led us to full-on fascism, and now they’re making clear they’ve learned nothing and will do it again.

[–] kristina@hexbear.net 26 points 2 months ago (1 children)

he looks more human with a beard but there is still a soullessness to his eyes that he cant shake, like zuckerberg

He's basically the liberal JD Vance

[–] AntiOutsideAktion@hexbear.net 18 points 2 months ago

To be a fly on the wall when the consultant shows him the 'dweeb' polling and offering possible solutions

[–] Alaskaball@hexbear.net 18 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Hope he really leans on going full Zelensky

[–] FlakesBongler@hexbear.net 21 points 2 months ago (2 children)

[–] Sinisterium@hexbear.net 4 points 2 months ago (1 children)

[–] FlakesBongler@hexbear.net 3 points 2 months ago

The crumb cake thing is made of smashed up pretzels!
