This is an incredibly bad-faith argument. He was talking about trans women, using intentionally obfuscating language. You know that. I know that. Everyone knows that. Stop trying to defend the indefensible.

There is also now a non chance that he's banned. That shit was blatant, stupid, and off-topic. Definitely not welcome here.

It was blatantly transphobic.

This is just false. Joe Manchin wasn't the one who "wrote it." It is a pared-down (yes, partially by Joe Manchin) version of the Build Back Better plan, which President Biden proposed. Lots of Democratic legislators in the House and Senate and their staffers actually wrote the text of the final bill.

Saying Joe Manchin wrote it is not just wrong, it's egregiously misleading.

Are we going to pretend he gives a shit? He doesn't. He got what he wanted, and he can't be elected again (barring him fucking our systems so severely that he manages to force a third term on us). He's going to wreck the justice system to avoid any consequences for his actions after his term, and he could very well kick the bucket while he's in office anyway (dude's got KFC gravy for blood).

He doesn't care. He no longer has to. He can play his country-destroying games with impunity. He has no reason to give a single fuck what the American people want.

It's not.

McConnell, you motherfucker, you could have stopped this. You could have had your caucus in the Senate vote to convict, and ended the nightmare. You don't get to complain about the "very dangerous world" you helped create.

I fucking hate that this is political. It shouldn't be. LGBTQ people exist, and depicting them in books is perfectly normal. What's not normal is the psychotic religious freak-out in response.

I wonder what it's like to be a genuine, true believer in the "deep state," then to be put in charge of part of it. Suddenly, you're getting actual, internal reports on the activities of a group of people you've been certain for years are Satan incarnate.

How does the conspiracy theory survive that? I mean, of course it does survive, because these people are actually insane, but how?

This can't be real.

OK, it's real. I wonder if they have a spokesman with the title, "The Mouth of Sauron?"

Four decades?

Fuck. You just make me imagine President-for-life Trump surviving to 118 years old, and just making things worse and worse for the entire time.
