    I’m so glad Biden dropped out because now he just looks senile.

      “senile” might just be the kindest word anyone could use to describe trump…

        You would have thought “weird” was the kindest, but it’s really getting under the skin of the MAGA crowd.

          They have fragile egos and no imagination. I’m not surprised in the slightest.

            The elementary-school-graduate words were wasted on them, apparently.

            It’s just funny that Biden tried everything from ‘convicted felon’ to ‘crazy guy’ and his surrogates added things like ‘rapist’ and ‘dictator’ and such and none of it got under their skin.

            But ‘weird?’ That’s a bridge too far!

          Saw on good point on here the other day. It gets under their skin so bad to be called weird because they know they are and their entire platform rests on convincing you that they aren’t

          Because their entire political platform is about superficial attacks on others while painting themselves as the cool normal people. Their entire existence hinges that they are normal relateble people, when you call them weird it means that they are in the same class that they’re attacking. It’s like those superficial bullies from high-school who in reality are tremendously insecure.

          Because they’re fascists.

          To a fascist, weird = not normal = one of the OTHERS = an evil and dangerous abomination that must be eliminated one way or the other for the good of the Reich.

          It’s also a simple word that they all know. You could try to analyze them and talk about their sociopathic tendencies and it’ll fly over their head. Call them “weird” though and they know that word very well.

          Might be why it took so long to find messaging that hit. “Fascist”? They shrug it off and call you the real fascist for calling them fascist. “Deplorable”? Too mean; Democrats aren’t allowed to be mean, and women definitely aren’t.

          “Weird” is what threads the needle. Who would have guessed that even weeks ago, much less in 2016?

        Specifically the part of his life that is all of his hamberders. Preferably a mix of Yellowjackets and Asian Giant Hornets.

    Somehow I don’t think Shawn Fain is bothered by what TFG calls him. No doubt he’s been called and threatened with worse. ✊

    Shawn Fain is such a charismatic speaker, the contrast between Trump and Fain is night and day.
