Miller appeared on Fox News on Sunday, where he went off on a rant about the Democratic votes were thrown away as the party rallies around Vice President Kamala Harris.

"They held a primary. They had ballots. They filled out circles!" Miller shouted on Fox News. "They went to the voting booths. They spent money on advertisements!"

Still yelling, Miller says that Republicans also spent money running against Biden.

Goebbels is mad.

He helped author Project 2025, as well as run Trump's whole immigration and deportation system. He would have made such a Nazi, you can just see it in him.

Guys like Miller can't understand the idea of self-sacrifice if there's no money or personal gain to be had, later. He's frustrated because he can't figure out the "angle" and it's no more complicated than for the good of the nation. And that's a completely alien idea to him.

Sorry. If anything other then non-committed vote happened during these "primaries" I would have been there. Also, fuck you you can't force someone to run you god damn idiot.

Every Who down in Who-ville, the tall and the small,

Was singing! Without any presents at all!

He HADN'T stopped Christmas from coming! IT CAME!

Somehow or other, it came just the same!

And the Grinch, with his grinch-feet ice-cold in the snow,

Stood puzzling and puzzling, how could it be so?

'It came without ribbons! It came without tags!

It came without packages, boxes or bags!'

This sounds like they slept on oppo research and message testing for anyone but Biden and now they realize they're at square one.

Modern conservative malice is matched only by modern conservative ineptitude.

There isn't a way to reject all facts and data about the world you don't like and still remain competent. You can't send someone to the moon by rage tweeting that NASA shouldn't exist and then building a giant slingshot because it feels like the right way to do it.

That's why they always change the measure of success to just hurting The Other. It's cheap and easier than solving problems.

Is this not just a continuation of the same old plan to characterize everything Democrats do as cheating so they get to say the election was stolen again?

Every Republican accusation is an admission.

That messaging works to keep their base engaged but capturing low-information swing voters is a bit trickier.

Maybe it doesn't matter when you don't care about the results of the election anyway?

They're going to recycle the same bullshit talking points anyway. They don't need research

God, let's hope so! I can't wait for "Sleepy Kamala is so old, she's senile! Her golf game is terrible! Her son has nudes on a laptop!"

Now is a good time to test the candidates on mental acuity, and ability to put together coherent sentences.

Let's also do some drug testing while we're at it.

To be perfectly honest, I’d be quite amused if Stephen Miller was not ok.

[–] [email protected] 10 points 3 months ago

Delighted, even

Tell me you don't have a platform that people will vote for without telling me that you don't have a platform that people will vote for.

They were running against Biden, not on their policy objectives other than racist and nationalist dog whistles
