I believe Roger Stone did this too!

In the video clip dated November 1, Stone can be seen speaking to two men at an unspecified location, saying he hoped they would be "celebrating" after the votes were in.

"I really do suspect it'll still be up in the air. But when that happens the key thing to do is to claim victory," Stone said. "Possession is nine-tenths of the law — no, we won, fuck you. Sorry, over, we won, you're wrong, fuck you."

Do you want an actual Raccoon City? Because this is how you get an actual Raccoon City...

I wish the number of folks I had to distance myself from was only 5. :( It should be ZERO!! Lol what a wakeup call 2016 was. :/

A Supreme Court Justice saying/believing something this fundamentally incorrect about the expectations of their job should be disqualifying.

Alas…

at this point the hard right is the party.

Yeah, suppose I can't argue with you there. Whichever way gets us to the hard/alt right being shunned/fringe, I'm hoping for it.

The collapse of the GOP is about to occur.

I sure hope you're right, and by that I mean I hope they have to restructure so as to shed the crazy alt-right section of the party back into the fringes.

If their non-profit status is revoked, it would most likely cause the group to re-characterize as a private organization, further decreasing transparency about how money is flowing into it.

Huh, definitely didn’t realize this side effect of losing non-profit status.

I really hope this kind of shit is pissing people off as much as it does us. It sure riles me the fuck up, and at a minimum serves as a reminder to keep voting.

I finally ran up on David Frum (I was a young, ignorant, “politics are boring and dumb” kind of guy back in the Bush II years), and it’s really something seeing him attack the hard/alt right as a “moderate” conservative (I think moderate is actually accurate here). Then again, he’s also a founder of No Labels, who is eying a Joe Manchin run.

Which, I guess makes sense. But still, I hate it. 🤷🏽‍♂️

Say it with me, everybody:

If conservatives become convinced that they can not win democratically, they will not abandon conservatism; they will reject democracy.
