    Man, why did we stop doing the whole “calling Republicans weird” thing? It was really starting to get under their skins, especially when major Dems like Walz and such got in on it, but then it just kinda fizzled out…

      Harris and Waltz were told to stop doing it by the DNC because they were gonna win.

      You can literally chart the rise and fall of their campaign by that one phone call where the DNC leadership told her to pivot to “vote for us or you hate democracy, and gaslighting Americans about the economy”

      Because it was getting to them DURING an election. Now they (pubeucans) are in charge all the Dems are cowering in fear. Only Burnie has the balls to say shit to their faces.

        Dems don’t want to ruffle the feathers, especially the old guard who are in cahoots with some of the gop, I’m betting the it came from their donors

      Dunno, but agree that it was clearly melting their delicate snowflake sensibilities. I think we should bring it back.
