Because she’s the scariest liberal they could find atm.

I like the photoshopped name tag, because the CHUDS might not recognize her if they didn’t.

I think it’s because Kathy Griffin once posed for a photo holding a decapitated Trump head and she got in SO MUCH TROUBLE from the MAGA crowd. Hollywood elite.

Meet Cynthia Brehm.

May 23, 2020 she declares the pandemic a Democratic hoax:

“Why is this happening today? And I’ll tell you why: all of this has been promulgated by the Democrats to undo all the good President Trump has done for our country — and they are worried,” Brehm says in video shot at the rally. "So, take off your masks, exercise your constitutional rights. Stand up, speak up and vote Republican.

August, 2018

She also was caught lying previously to help her child-molesting husband, even though her own daughter was one of the victims.

“So here’s the story,” she said. “My husband got involved in pornography and he flashed my 14-year-old daughter.”

The actual details:

Norman Brehm began “conditioning” one girl when she was 5 years old, the documents state.

“It began with me exposing myself, and progressed to showing her pornographic magazines, and having her masturbate me and then having her perform oral sex on me,” Norman Brehm admitted, according to the documents.

He initiated a similar regimen with a 6-year-old boy and an 8-year-old girl, “showing them adult and child pornography materials, exposing himself to them while he masturbated …and on one occasion rubbing (the girl’s) breasts.”

His stepdaughter — Cynthia Brehm’s daughter — also testified that Norman Brehm exposed himself to her and asked her “to rub his groin and genital area,” according to the documents.

After pleading guilty to just two offenses — indecency with a child and making a false statement — he received a sentence of five years confinement, later reduced to just two years.

Stay classy, GOP persons!

But what about Biden touching all the children in rooms full of people and knowing there are cameras rolling? He’s just as much a pedophile, right? Right?

5730

He’s worse. He’s an Alpha pedophile asserting his dominance when he does it.

Are the Evangelicals finally starting to realize that the actions of their champions in the GOP don’t match Jesus’ teachings? Are they going to do the Christian thing rather than the Conservative thing?

The answer won’t surprise you! But at least this one charity did the absolute minimum they could possibly do in this situation.

“Bread for the World is concerned that his behavior in the past few days does not reflect the values of respect and compassion that Jesus calls on us to exhibit every day and we expect from our board members,” the nonprofit said.

Words from a Very Serious member of the senate.

Last I remember there were plenty of Republican-controlled states that went into lockdown. I guess the Democrats are powerful enough to bend Republican Governors and legislators to their will.

Anyway, what does what Cruz is saying have to do with a stimulus bill? Is it his fractured reasoning for opposing it? The bill is bad because it’s what the Democrats want, even though millions are hurting?

5734

All he has to do is oppose it based on spending and then he would suddenly be a principled moderate conservative or libertarian, and Ted is an opportunist, so clearly he thinks that this is a better course of action to keep his seat.

Which is fucking chilling, and doesn’t bode well for 2024 or whenever things start shifting again because our country’s fence-sitters want “change”.

5735

Cruz knows he’s going to have to fight Tom Cotton for the Trump base after November. He’s gonna amp up his bonafides which means focusing on the politics of grievance. Trump’s base doesn’t care what you actually do, they care only about who you blame.

5736

Yeah, I know all that about Republicans, sadly. They are never penalized for being hypocrites. All I can say is if the Democrats win it all in November they’d better have an aggressive agenda and get a hell of a lot done in two years. That’s probably their window. And they may lose the White House in '24. I can’t see Biden running again in his 80’s.

5737

How about Cuomo?

5738

Good chance of it. But Biden’s VP is probably going to run too.

5739

Fuck no.

5740

Reasons?

5741

Wonder how this shitstain would feel about it if he had been one of the enslaved.

5742

The thing I don’t get, is how these people are so stupid as to not realize that “Trump’s base” is just political poison.

They aren’t worth appealing to, because to do so requires that you alienate 70% of the country. What’s more, they are fat fucking old people, who are going to be dead in 10 years.

Basing your political future on them is idiotic. Even ignoring the morality and ethics, it’s just a bad fucking plan, from a purely pragmatic perspective.

5743

Pretty sure we’ve heard the same thing about Christian and anti abortionist conservatives, then ditto heads, then neocons, and now Trumpettes. You have a lot of respect for the intelligence of conservatives, Timex, which I do not share. It appears that you are just lamenting the current place the Republican party is at, but there’s zero evidence this trajectory won’t continue and they’ll get even worse.

5744

Yeah, there will always be a new generation ready to receive the torch.
