Don't build his app Jerry!

Let's make it a dildo shop so everyone that downloads it can go fuck themselves.

Should be an age limit for politics, like retirement age.

And then they're only allowed to live on money from Social Security.

Let's see how infinitely funded SS becomes then!

Glitch McConnell

[–] [email protected] 34 points 1 year ago

Mitch McConnell tests the limits of my liberal tendency towards compassion.

[–] [email protected] 26 points 1 year ago (2 children)

The fact that he's saying his fine, and his constituents and fellow party members are just accepting that is ridiculous. This is one of the most powerful people in the country, and he's glitching out. Somebody with some power needs to speak up.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 1 year ago

It's never going to be a winning argument as long as the corpse of Feinstein is still being draped around Congress. This is an issue that is not party specific and won't go away soon.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

100% he is being controlled by his staff.

Glitch McConnell ~ stole it

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I'm really looking forward to how the GoP handles removing him. Hopefully the Dems do the same with Feinstein sooner rather then later.

[–] Mocheeze 11 points 1 year ago (2 children)

The main thing I've noticed is that Republicans have a much deeper bench than Dems. Too many younger Dems give up on leadership tracks because the old guard just won't step aside. Fucking sad.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago

Yep agreed. That is one of the many problems of the Democrat party, and is ultimately how Biden finally became president. If you look at the average age of democratic congressman and senators, they are 2-3 years older then their republican counter parts. It's a problem.

It's also a huge problem with all of us post boomer generations that we got so disillusioned that we don't participate in politics

[–] [email protected] 11 points 1 year ago

This stupid mother fucker should be forced into retirement.

Need to add a reboot sound to these videos.

Dude is getting the Windows blue screen.

I absolutely despise the turtle-man, but I don't like making fun of obvious medical conditions. This piece of shit has done awful things to our country, but I don't wish him poor health.

Feinstein as well... I can't stand her and pity her for remaining in office as an obviously ailing 90 year old kept in place to maintain a false bulwark.

[–] [email protected] 36 points 1 year ago (1 children)

This may make me a bad person, but here we go: I don’t give a fuck if he is sick. I honestly hope he suffers. He deserves it. That horrible piece of shit has ruined the lives of millions of people, and is continuing to do so today. The America’s (and therefor the world) would be better off if he was dead.

[–] [email protected] -5 points 1 year ago

Agreed. As long as you also hold the same Ire for his contemporary's like Feinstein, Biden, Grassley, Romney, etc.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 year ago

Mitch McConnell would sneeze on you and use your shirt as a tissue. I hope he goes soon.

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The condition he is suffering from obviously makes him completely unfit not only for office but for any job. As long as he insists on clinging on to power, it is perfectly fine to ridicule him for his condition.

He could retire and get treated and noone would care one bit about his disease, but he himself insists on stepping into the spotlight while suffering from it, all on account of his insatiable lust for hurting others and the feeling of power which that provides him.

Fuck him and go whatever disease it is that he is suffering from.

[–] MrVilliam 3 points 1 year ago

Agreed. I'm not happy to see him short circuit. I'm pissed that he is doing this and still not stepping down. Feinstein too. But I think she's too far gone to even understand anything about the world around her, plus she didn't dedicate the past 20 years to subverting democracy to consolidate power like Moscow Mitch did. I think he understands where he is and what he would be giving up by stepping down, and he's too selfish to do the right thing for the good of the country he supposedly serves.

Mitch should retire so he can spend whatever remaining time he has left fucking himself with the same enthusiasm with which he sweatily fucked America.

I absolutely despise the turtle-man, but I don’t like making fun of obvious medical conditions.

No one's making fun of the medical condition, they're making fun of the evil sack of shit with the medical condition, because he's an evil sack of shit, not because he has a medical condition.

This piece of shit has done awful things to our country, but I don’t wish him poor health.

Why not? The longer he lives, the longer he does evil. Ideally, we'd have a functional system that blocks evil sacks of shit from coming into power; or at the very least, upon the revelation that someone in power who turns out to be an evil sack of shit, a functional system that removes them from power. That's not the reality we live in though, so the least extreme flicker of hope we have is that evil sacks of shit die spontaneously via stroke or heart attack or meteor strike or asphyxiation after falling head first into the tank of an outhouse... wishing poor health on evil sacks of shit should be encouraged.

Feinstein as well… I can’t stand her and pity her for remaining in office as an obviously ailing 90 year old kept in place to maintain a false bulwark.

Less evil so much as she's simply a tool for actual evil; but tbh, kinda same as above, maybe barring the outhouse bit. She needs to be removed, and longer she refuses the more she solidifies her legacy as being a tool for evil. Whether or not she has the mental capacity to be aware of that is moot; ideally our system would remove someone in that condition to make space for someone who's actually capable of doing their job... but we don't live in that ideal, so again we're left just waiting for a stroke or something.

It's shitty. It's fucked up. It feels dirty. But I refuse to give an ounce of sympathy to evil people or their pawns just because they're sick, or old, or senile, or distraught over the death of their pet hamster-- none of that shit matters. What matters is that they're evil or enabling evil; and that they're in power. Which is a fucking problem.

Feinstein was evil well before she was a senile senator.

[–] Sterile_Technique 6 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

I honestly don't know much about her beyond her current drama; but the point I was making was that even if she was the most benevolent and impactful leader to ever grace this planet with her literally flawless policies: it doesn't matter. The second she can't do her job, she needs to get the fuck out.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Agreed there.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

At least Feinstein stood for righteous causes at one point. McConnell has done more harm to this country than just about any other single person in the past few decades.

[–] [email protected] -1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Nah. She cargo-culted that when she was running for office, much like hillary and all the other democratic politicians from that era. None of them were on the right side of history at the time. They ret-conned it so that gullible fools would say vacuous statements like "At least they stood for righteous causes."

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago (2 children)

They should both step down. They are not serving their constituents like this, yet they cling on for their own benefit. Now we need to scrape them off the hill like barnacles off a boat.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Have they ever served their constituents? If they have, it was before I was born.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

All of that was true long before their decline.
