It's starting to feel like bullying. Not that it doesn't feel deserved, but why is JD such a target? Does he just have such a punchable face?
He's a piece of shit who belongs to a fascist party and who might be the President of the United States when their Orange Turd in Chief gets flushed down the toilet.
Isn't that a good enough reason?
Yeah but that's true of most of the GoP but the best memes we ever got out of, say, McConnell were turtle references.
You may have missed the others, then. I’m just a Canadian who keeps up with things and saw plenty of deserved jabs at MTG, Gaetz, Boebert, etc.. There will also just be less of a huge wave of these memes because they aren’t needed nearly as much as they are on the rught. We absolutely have them but you’ll generally see real articles using direct quotes that serve the purpose of making the (terrifying) joke for us.
Either way, that’s no reason not to do it now. This dude’s in a HUGE spotlight and is a MASSIVE piece of shit so I really don’t care if there’s precedent or not. Fuck that guy, he sucks mega big time.
Have you read any of his book? He constantly refers to rural people as dumb idiots who couldn't "get out" of their hometown because they were too lazy. Why he's the Republican candidate, I have no idea.
His whole book is about how successful people move to cities and dumb losers stay in rural areas.
I didn't know about the book, so thanks.

At a glance, its just another, "I made it, so can you" fairy tale written for political cred.
Now with extra condescendion and contempt!
Ugh, I don't plan on reading the book anytime soon so no. But my point is mostly why aren't we making these jokes about all the other GOP assholes; most of them seem to have similarly terrible books.
Pick one and get something started! Be the change you want to see!
