If you can’t win, cheat. - GOP philosophy
if that doesn't work. whine and cry like little babies, then cheat some more.
Liberals are the eldest children of politics. They get all the praise and attention, mainly for doing what their parents say.
Conservatives are the babies of politics. They get what they want by being insufferably annoying.
Progressives are the middle children. They're supposed to go along with everything and not complain that their siblings get all the attention.
Prichard, who has previously called on conservative states to "put into code that Jesus Christ is King and dedicate their state to Him,"
That's all you really need to know right there. Just another Christian Nationalist fuckhead trying to rally the
heardherd* of angry rubes.I think you mean "herd"
Apparently I too am a rube when it comes to spelling first thing in the morning 🌄 🙃 😅
More a supremacist than a nationalist at this point
Republicans hate America.
A Republican state representative in North Dakota has urged authorities in Ohio to "ignore the results" of Tuesday's election
So it's an idiot from some other State trying to tell Ohio what and what not to do. Gotcha.
They did that in South Dakota when they voted to legalize recreational Marijuana. The governor used a single-subject technicality and anti-mariuana geriatric judges agreed. Then two years and millions of dollars in smear campaigns later they had a rematch that soundly defeated recreational use when it was voted on again.
Rep. Brandon Prichard (R-ND)
Direct democracy should not exist. Case-in-point: Ohio legalizing the slaughter of babies. It would be an act of courage to ignore the results of the election and not allow for the murder of Ohio babies. We are probably 10 years away from this opinion being acceptable though.
So just to be clear, Republican Congressmen are saying that they have a 10 year plan to do away with democracy?
The use of the word "allow" here betrays his real belief, that he thinks he is in a position of power to rule over his constituents and decide for them what they are allowed or not allowed to do.
I was thinking even worse, that he's making a call to action for his fellow "patriots" to take things into their own hands.
GOP, has been becoming more radical every year. Soon they'll have martyrs like Muslims.
they've had them for years now, it's rhetoric like this that creates lone wolf terrorists
We'll be back to "pro-life" extremists murdering doctors and patients… to save lives of course.
Democracy is when I vote and my accepted result happens.
And also when I allow a vote that I am able to “undo” when my preferred result does not happen.
I really hop you're trolling, because you're letting out some pretty crucial parts here.
Democracy is also when you vote and your voted-for result doesn't happen. More than 40% of the state just had that experience.
Democracy isn't about you. Or me. It's about the majority.
Saying the quiet part out loud
But lets be honest, they've been doing that since 2016 and their cult is cheering for it
Yeah the only thing that surprised me here is that they moved the length of time they want to go back to back. It used to be to the 50s but now it seems they’re admitting they want the gilded age back
I had to read this comment 4 times to understand what it meant. Is it just me?
Yea, there's too many backs.
Cope and seethe, motherfucker
The fact that a party that has deified an adulterous, lecherous, lying, vulgar fraudster thinks it has any moral high ground on any subject is laughable
"Republican dislikes democracy" could be the title of almost any article about almost any Republican and it'd still be correct.
But only "When it goes against them"
Oh yay I’m going to be getting a lot of really gross and inaccurate billboards and YouTube ads.
Yeah I would not be surprised if they just re-ban marijuana. Abortion though, that’s not gonna succeed. It’s a constitutional amendment that won by over 10 points after a lot of underhanded attempts to kill it. If they succeed at this then they sever the final sliver of democracy in Ohio.
I watched the debate last night and half of those chucklefucks were like "I'M SO UPSET, WHY WOULD DEMOCRACY DO THIS, WE HAVE TO INTERVENE". Points to Christie (who, I believe, is trying to present himself as wide Biden) for actually sticking to his guns on the State's Rights rhetoric.
Of course, Christie is trying to be reasonable, so he has about a dollar's chance in a strip club of making it out of the primary.
So Widen?
Jokes on them, they already intervened. They just failed at it
Republicans are regressive on democracy and human rights.
What do they think will happen in 10 years?
"It would be an act of courage to ignore the results of the election and not allow for the murder of Ohio babies. We are probably 10 years away from this opinion being acceptable though."
would be an act of courage… not allow for the murder
Friends and neighbors, that's a call to violence.
Yeah and whos gonna stop him? It's not like he was doing something as horrible as condeming the Israelie slaughter of innocents, then maybe we could do something like hold a vote on how much we don't like him.
