I wasn't going to watch, but now I hope EVERYONE in America watched [View all]

I hope expectant mothers put headphones on their wombs so their unborn child could hear.

Because if everyone watched that absolute 90 minute shit-stream of fascism, hatred, misogyny, racism and authrotarianism, and there is not such a blue wave in 2024 that even the Governorship and both Senate seats in Wyoming are "toss-ups", this country is fucked.

From cheers and applause for a bobble-headed, Howdy-Doody looking fuckstick saying people would be shot "stone-cold-dead", to a swarmy little pissant claiming that the problems in America are "due to single mothers" not having a man, it was a clusterfuck of putridness.

It wasn't a fucking debate. It was Richard Dawson hosting Running Man.

No vision. No compassion. No hope. No empathy. No love. No joy. No understanding. No reason. No fucking future...just HATE, HATE, HATE!!!

There was little in that debate that would cause you to believe these people are even human-fucking-beings.

Anyone suggesting we "reach out" to these asshats and their vile, cruel supporters can just fuck right off.

This current Retrumplican party needs to get the stuffing knocked out of them at the ballot box over and over and over again.

I hope EVERYONE was paying attention, because our country is in fucking trouble and we need all hands on deck.
