GOP Insanity Containment 2: This is the Place. This is the Time, Cowboy.

Yup, of course he did. Wonder how many children he abused in his post.

100% he would never refer to a 9yo white girl as a woman.

For some reason, I often end up googling some of the ā€œmain charactersā€ in these types of stories just to see a little bit more about them. I normally donā€™t post about it because Iā€™m not trying to doxx someone or seem overly creepy, but this guy put himself into the public eye and so Iā€™ll mention two things.

Apparently, Gordon Lawshe was a councilmember for this town and only resigned once he was offered and accepted the role of director of the Caldwell Community Center. Interesting timing too, this article is from the month after he resigned and it is about three police filing a complaint against him because Lawshe complained that some sergeants werenā€™t issuing enough tickets.

Itā€™s not even for the money a lot of the time, itā€™s a pure power play over some of the most vulnerable people in our society. Itā€™s fucking heinous.

I donā€™t think these guys understand how cool Fetterman is compared to them, and they should just ignore him.

Ben flipping on Trump is amazing. Itā€™s DeSantis 2024 all the way.

I feel like garrison has just given up.

This is a take:

Heā€™s even taken away Trumpā€™s non-existent physique and given it to DeSantis.

You have to remember that W went from being the president with the highest approval ratings in history to being a persona non grata within the party. Itā€™s not too crazy to imagine the party putting Trumpism into the memory hole and rallying around the new guy.

Comparing bush to trump seems like a bad take. So many people have made Trump a core part of their identity in a way that has never happened before and certainly didnā€™t happen with bush. I have no idea how trump vs. desantis plays out but Iā€™m not counting trump out yet.

Yeah but it wonā€™t be the same. The first hit of crack is always the best. Plus theyā€™ll have to throw out all their Trump memorabilia.

Thereā€™s a guy at the gym who wears a Trump shirt fairly often. It will be interesting to see if he retires that.

Yeah I could see them buying him off, and I could see him causing complete havoc.

I mean how many cheeseburgers does the guys heart have left in it?

Well yeah, that happened to Bush, but it didnā€™t happen to McCain. Oh. Oh wait, I guess it did happen to McCain. But it didnā€™t happen to Romney though. Oh. Oh yeah, maybe it did happen to Romney too.

I love how much all of this has been a freeroll for MAGA. ā€œOh we came close, but didnā€™t destroy democracy while we had the chance? Darn. Oh well, back to the status quo until the next assault.ā€

No consequences whatsoever.

Meanwhile weā€™re over here sweating the slow demise of the democratic experiment worldwide if these idiots get their way.

Itā€™s like being married to someone who keeps trying to kill you. But you canā€™t get a divorce or even move out of the house.
