Pissing off the liberals, of course, as Amanda Marcotte has noted the practice is easily equal to any motivation of existence for the Republican Party. There’s a juvenile fun to it, yes, but much more so a satisfied fury of loathing and hatred in sticking it to the libtards who would ruin the country if they were in charge.
Among the Twitterati there is currently an evolution of beating up on terrible American journalism and the New York Times as one of the hugely negative variables that led us to the Trump catastrophe. All well and good, but leading up to the horrifying debacle of election 2016 was a long journalism history of malfeasance in ignoring the current Republican regression into extremism.
Looking at the foul image above evokes many reactions, of course, but after a little time a sad realization eventually bakes in: this is all the Republicans have. They don’t feed kids, they don’t cure diseases, they don’t build bridges or make allies in this dangerous world, hell they can’t even set up an American business environment, the Wall St. bailout isn’t forgotten.
Fox News was set up as a fierce counterweight to the weak-tea truth of American corporate journalism, but it also had the disastrous effect of producing a huge swath of the American electorate that are effectively idiot sheep, they’ll believe anything, vote for anyone as long as they stick it to the libtards.
Gerrymandering was a cute little ploy to lock in seats, but it also had the unseen effect of producing Republican radicals, completely insulated from any political reality these Freedom Caucus freaks and cranks have locked in a downward spiral of regression. After enough time they further push the Party further down in aggressive bids to out-do each other in knifing the hated feminists and homosexuals.
If any doubts still exist about modern American Republican radicalism, heh, look at the President himself. The horror works in duality in demonstrating American journalism and the New York Times as total failures, only rank media incompetence could have produced that Mr. Unintelligible idiot now in the White House.
Long before this catastrophe was inflicted on us a female commenter at Daily Kos noted that should the election of Donald Trump actually happen, well, look the freak out. To actually have the unthinkable occur in having one of the best qualified candidates ever being defeated by a sexual assault moron would unleash a fury that would make a woman look scorned appear pale indeed.
Well here we are in the Trump nightmare, it’s a fair question to ask, has that fury been tapped? Unfortunately the real political answer can’t be answered until the 2018 midterm results, but from the tiny clues we can see so far the answer is a resounding hell yes.
Outraged women in pink hats swarmed the capitol inaugural weekend in tens of thousands of determined protesting souls. Spontaneous organizing among women marches relentlessly forth in districts all across the country. The Democratic Party reports 2018 female candidate interest soaring and not seen in modern times.
I am just a tiny California political junkie but I see the signs too. I will never forget the 2017 town hall meeting of that odious Jason Chaffetz, perfectly happy to disgustingly persecute Hillary Clinton endlessly for nothing and then just sit there as Donald Trump gleefully loots the US Treasury.
Do your job! Do your job! The chant roiled out of the packed crowd in spontaneous anger and manifest disgust, and then in the middle of the crowd a brunette woman in a blue winter cap stands up and starts pointing at Chaffetz in timed synchronicity to the chant.
There are many takes of this crowd and views of that woman, but the editor of the video above knows and sees the power of her too. If there are any Kossarians or Twitterati here that reside or are close to Chaffetz’s district I wish there was a way to let her know she’s a total freaking hero to me, I’ll never forget her or what she represents.
Absolute total female resolve never to let something like this happen again, to have this sexual assault creep be elected President of the United States, by god and baby Jesus you’re going to find out just how much fun pissing off the liberals and the gays and the feminists and the scientists is. We wish you well in your political defeat to oblivion in 2018.
