So how about that Republican Debate!
I’ve only caught clips of it and I’m not strong enough to watch in full so I ask how any of you felt about it if you watched it.
Portuguese news went over it briefly but I can only understand bits and pieces, from what I’ve gathered the whole thing was a shit show.
Mike Pence said “consensus is the opposite of leadership” so, you know, good to see their grasp on reality is as solid as ever
Mike Pence jacks off nightly to a picture of Dick Cheney (he would have sex with his wife but it wouldn’t have been for conception, and therefore it would be a sin lol)
they’re fucking nuts. one of them said “climate change isn’t real, we need to keep extracting as many fossil fuels as possible”, they all talked about how we need to break up teacher’s unions, how we need to abolish the Department of Education, how we need to spend billions on our border like Israel, etc.
Pence even said like “we need to deal with the problems of Social Security and healthcare” like are you kidding me? Retirement at 65 has god-awful benefits, you basically have to retire at 67-70 to actually get OK benefits that can afford you to barely retire. Healthcare is essentially not a thing here, more specifically AFFORDABLE healthcare that most people desperately need
Mike Pence is a hilarious candidate. Less than 3 years ago, there were Republicans storming DC looking for Mike Pence to hang him, now he thinks he has a shot at POTUS. Vivek is really trying to separate himself from the herd more than anything and it didn’t work in his favor at times. DeSantis was struggling the whole time. The question asking if they’d support Trump was so funny. They said raise your hand if you WOULD support Trump if he got the nomination and everyone but 2 people raised their hand. And besides Vivek who raised his hand quickly and kept it up, everyone else sorta did it after seeing other candidates do it, they were pretty reluctant to do so and I thought it was funny how they still have to bend the knee to a mf who has a fuckin Mugshot🤣
Vivek
Now this is just an insult to the Sixth House and the tribe unmourned
Vivek had the most uncomfortable, canned open mike comedian introduction speech out of all of them AND the nerve to break the fourth wall by calling out how everyone has a rehearsed introduction.
He's a bigger weasel than
and I love itAnd he got called out by Christie for stealing Obama’s “I’m a tall skinny guy with a weird last name” bit lmfaooo
Afaik they all signed a document to be in this debated saying they'd support whoever won
Lol I didn’t know that, kinda a repetitive question then
I watched hasans coverage and oh boy 😂
Oh man I totally forgot about Hasan Lmao I’ll have to seek out his coverage as I imagine it’s way more palatable
It's pretty funny that he consumes sooo much american media that he unironically could roleplay a better conservative than the actual conservatives at the debate 😂
Portuguese? Aren't you a Cold Yank?
I’m both lol born and raised in Canada but my family are Portuguese immigrants! I live together with two family members who watch Portuguese tv so the only English news I get is on Twitter, TikTok, and on here.
Puts into perspective all the (justified) ripping on libs we do here.
