Who?


Fucking hypocrite.

https://www.politico.com/story/2016/10/donald-trump-bill-clinton-accusers-229441

Clinton's communications director, Jennifer Palmieri. "Hillary Clinton understands the opportunity in this town hall is to talk to voters on stage and in the audience about the issues that matter to them, and this stunt doesn’t change that.

"If Donald Trump doesn’t see that, that’s his loss. As always, she’s prepared to handle whatever Donald Trump throws her way.”



heh

And this has to do with what, exactly, Kiiid?

"I have no response to what is being said, so I am going to pretend I am Trump and talk about HRC instead."

Here, Kiiid, you can talk about this, instead:

https://www.voiceofsandiego.org/topics/politics/trump-san-diego-mayor-thanked-me-for-the-wall-mayor-i-did-not/

Trump said the mayor of San Diego thanked him for the wall.

The Mayor said, "No, I didn't," and explained what he did ask Trump for.

This was the GOP mayor of San Diego.

Trump has a hard time telling the truth.

Re:  OREGON

Protesting cap-and-trade by walking out today represents our constituency and exactly how we should be doing our job,” Senate Republican Leader Herman Baertschiger Jr., of Grants Pass, said in a statement Thursday. “We have endured threats of arrest, fines and pulling community project funds from the governor, Senate president and majority leader. We will not stand by and be bullied by the majority party any longer."

Republican Sen. Brian Boquist responded by telling state police to “send bachelors and come heavily armed” if they come and get him.

If he did, please quote him..

Wow. That was hard. No wonder it took me so long.

“That’s not what Mayor Faulconer said. We all know that the President uses his own terminology. But that wasn’t the focus of their conversation,” Gustafson wrote. “The president as an aside asked Mayor Faulconer what he thought about the border, and the Mayor’s response is that we welcome federal investment in our land ports of entry. We’re the busiest border crossing in the Western Hemisphere, and federal dollars help us make it easier to trade, cross legally and commute across the border.”

And then Gustafson went further to clarify.

“Mayor Faulconer does not support a wall from sea to shining sea. Let’s invest instead on stopping sewage from the Tijuana River Valley,” he wrote.

Kiiid has decided to pretend that when a spokesman does the job of representing the mayor, it doesn't count as the mayor's saying it.

Self-serving bullshit.

Republicans have lost their fucking minds!

I remember when Texas Dems ran to Oklahoma to prevent a.vote on a redistricting bill in 2003.
I don’t remember an elected official threatening state troopers with armed resistance.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2019/06/22/threats-militia-provoke-shutdown-oregon-capitol-day-after-gop-lawmakers-fled/

pay site

GOP elected official in Oregon threatens state troopers with armed violence from his white militia buddies.

Look up Sen. Brian Boquist a true fucking patriot.

So you are calling out bad bahavior?  Got it.

Bad Behavior?

Seig heil, bitch.

Anything to take our eyes off of the damage he is doing to the economy.

Wages have fallen since 2017. Not only fallen behind inflation, but fallen in absolute terms. Nice job GOP!

No Democrats threatened to shoot the fucking police because they didn’t like a piece of legislation you don’t have votes to defeat.

He dud the threaten a cop he threatened ANY STATE TROOPER WHO TRIES TO UPHOLD HIS DUTY.
