Honestly! All these white “supremacists” constitute the poorest argument for their flawed ideas. Also, white is not a faith, not a religious class—it’s an accident of birth.

Re Trump's "ugly little thin-lipped mouth," it looks like an anus. Oh wait, it actually is an anus, given the BS that he spews out of it.

I wish the stupid muscleman had gone on a real crusade and died of dysentery in the Kingdom of Jerusalem. Or leprosy, that’s cool

Problem is they're aren't any non sexual abuse predators in the entire GoPs ..so I have a feeling the GOP platform will be about two years of trying to confirm the entire house keepers .😜🤷

Trump will demand - and get - requests to take their names off the nomination lists, by the fucking loser nominees themselves, and he will - as sure as his farts stink up a courtroom - blame the MSM and Demoncrats. And, the dumb shits who voted for him will believe it.

Many politicians even in the GOP were absolutely fatigued by Trump’s dumpster fire, double impeachment clown show last time. This time is entirely different. Trump clearly felt pressure to play along with some conventions and make job picks based on Federalist Society lists and GOP insider info. This time he gives no shits whatsoever. I doubt he’s even doing any choosing, but rather giving that job to some other clown and simply vetoing any that offend him. And either the GOP won’t bother with pesky confirmations, which is my guess, or they will find another way around the hassle. Trump clearly wants to burn down the government on his way out of existence, and lots of unhappy people want that too. The wealthiest man on Earth is going to make America great by firing thousands of people with families. Unqualified people are going to destabilize our institutions and NATO and UN alliances. It’s going to be a scary time. This is who you put forward, again, Republicans. You could have voted to impeach and this version of our nightmare would be behind us.

Not to mention the guy has absolutely no experience, or even potential, to be running a million plus employee organization, with 700+ "outlets" around the planet.

To be fair to Trump, getting jumpscared by rape allegations would probably spook anyone.

Republican senators are not gonna reject a single one of Trump‘s miserable, evil, traiterous appointees. Wanna know how I know that? Because Republicans do the right thing 0% of the time!

I finally made the connection. This is why wingnuts are so obsessed with the idea that pedophiles are using secret code phrases and symbols to signal each other. It’s because they’re always using secret code phrases and symbols to signal their allegiance to white nationalism and neo-Nazism (“88”, “Deus Vult”). Remember when they appropriated the “okay” hand gesture?

As always, it’s projection with these weirdos.

Yep. Add in conspiracy theories on top.
