Forty percent of Republicans think it’s no big deal if the Russians interfere in US elections to help the Republicans win:

A Yahoo Finance/SurveyMonkey poll released Tuesday finds that 11 percent of Republican or GOP-leaning Americans surveyed said it is “appropriate” for Russia to try to help Republicans, while 29 percent said it’s “not appropriate, but wouldn’t be a big deal.”

Light treason.

obligatory whataboutism WTF

On the Democratic side, 14 percent of Democrats said it either would be appropriate or “wouldn’t be a big deal” for Russia to intervene on behalf of Democrats.

14% of Democrats are also fucking idiot traitors.

Sounds about right.

if you need another example of how the GOP has moved to the far right

I saw about 10 minutes of her last night. I assumed she was liberal until she mentioned to a someone how she used to be the token republican on MSNBC. My first thought was that she sure didn’t sound like a republican.

That’s cool, the GOP definitely needs a media outlet that’s interested in advancing their agenda. Good call by MSNBC to provide that.

Nicolle Wallace belongs to the group of people like Steve Schmidt, Max Boot, Tom Nichols, Rick Wilson, and Bill Kristol that can’t stand what Trump has done to the GOP. Schmidt and Boot have gone so far as to leave the party completely. I don’t know about the rest.

Shades of the “What do you remember that shows your age?” thread.

… I am old enough to remember when the phrase “liberal Republican” was not necessarily a contradiction in terms. (Rockefeller, Lindsay, etc.)

Now they call them neo-con, and they are a long way from actually being liberal.

Her Wikipedia page contains this gem:

In September 2011, Wallace published the sequel to Eighteen Acres, It’s Classified, about a fictional presidential campaign troubled by a mentally ill vice presidential candidate.[37] Wallace said the premise was inspired by her experience as a Senior Adviser to the McCain/Palin campaign.

Nicole Wallace has the most grating voice on television, and I wish she would consider a new career as a fucking mime.

She did speak rather fast for TV, although I don’t remember the voice itself being grating.

I wonder if I should invoke @triggercut over this comment?

[shit too late]

It’s “Nicolle”, and her husband is the luckiest man on the planet.

Those are many of the people who tried to give us Sarah Palin, or helped paint lipstick on the pig of the Iraq war. I mean, they created the Trump GOP.

The only reason they’re not slated to be first against the wall when the revolution comes is because that honor is so highly competed for. They’re day 2 picks at best.

2018, all!
