After his flip to the dark side post election, I honestly don't know why there aren't a lot more people cosplaying as Republicans. That side is so easily duped that anyone who comes out faking hate for moinorities, or claiming the government is a swamp you could easily win and then just flip afterwards.
I do have a friend who ran for county judge as a Democrat and was defeated. Four years later, she ran as a Republican and won. Her politics are the same as ever, but that (R) on the ticket makes the locals fill in her bubble every time she's up for reelection.
To wholeheartedly promote Republican policies requires brain damage, which we don't yet have the technology to reverse.
I could easily lie about that stuff and be convincing enough to enought morons to make them think I'm on their side. You live near enough conservatives and christians and you learn how to fake it.
The war powers resolution failed 49 to 50 as the Pennsylvanian was the only Democrat to vote with Republicans who control the Senate. Three Republicans — U.S. Sens. Rand Paul, of Kentucky; Susan Collins, of Maine; and Lisa Murkowski, of Alaska — voted with Democrats.
Saying that Fetterman's vote was deciding is silly, when it was a 49 to 50 vote - every vote was deciding.
And the Republican dissenter votes are purely performative. They pull this shit all the time, with the same persons. Who would never vote against their party, if the vote could truly fail. Especially Susan Collins and Lisa Murkowski do this all the time. Hence the people here blaming the Democrats for being captured are sheep being tricked by the Republican performance.
I'm seeing fifty complete cunts.
Literally the opposite of what he was elected to do. Such a shame. He’s a piece of shit, and I hope the worst for him.
I voted for him and I've never felt so betrayed by a politician I was actually kinda cool with being in a position of power.
Brain damage made him go from sorta quietly right leaning Democrat to a full-blown Republicrat.
At least we know definitively that brain damage is what makes people support conservative views.
The dementia epidemic is what’s going to start WW3
It kinda already has. WW3 just hasn't gotten to the Total War + Nukes phase yet.
There are four Republicans more reliable than this Democrat.
Let me guess....he voted not to limit his war powers?
correct
cast the deciding vote against the latest effort to limit President Donald Trump’s ability to attack Iran
Parties (and/or the people) really need a way to recall member that runs on bad faith and switches after elections. From Sinema to Fetterman, there's always at least one fraud in the DNC.
