Truth bomb incoming!

@georgetakei

Except that they're also the party of do-as-I-say-not-as-I-do

@georgetakei y'all won't be laughing when he wins and pardons himself. Me, I'll be crying because I cannot get my Irish citizenship via heredity.
@n3bulous @georgetakei He could only theoretically pardon his federal stuff. There are multiple state indictments/trials that he can do nothing about.
@n3bulous @georgetakei you can still come to Europe. 🤷‍♀️
Regular immigration happens a lot in the EU and it’s rather easy for people from the USA.
@georgetakei it may be just me, but I think that Republicans nominating the polarising Trump seems like the (only) way for Biden to succeed in the election. If they nominate some "normal" candidate, they are likely to win.
@georgetakei but they don’t care about hypocrisy

@Bronwyn @georgetakei Losing is winning. Lies are truth.

I think I've seen this pattern demonstrated elsewhere…

@alice @georgetakei yeah exactly. That’s their playbook

@Bronwyn @georgetakei So, like, some bizarre combination of 1984, Godwin-blessed nazi references, and Idiocracy: the blueprint for success.

Really didn't picture the USA degenerating like this within my lifetime. But, hey, it's nice to be surprised?

(These were warnings, people, and satire, not instruction manuals.)

@georgetakei
Don't expect any cognitive dissonance from people without even two brain cells to rub together. 🤣
@georgetakei Just ask the MAGA crowd that following a person who would step over their corpses and not think twice about it. What protects you from arbitrary actions? What compensation do you get when he's locked away? Not from Trump.
@georgetakei Well, the Oval Office is due for an aesthetic overhaul… just kidding, they’re going to be bent over backwards making this one try to work.
@georgetakei It's the same as how they co-opted "Defund the Police" from Black/POC movements w/"Defund the FBI".

@georgetakei I tell you, I never understood in the first place why prisoners are not allowed to vote.

For everything else: it’s Republicans. They are the epitome of hypocrisy.
