During a campaign event for former President Donald Trump Tuesday, Arkansas Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders suggested Vice President Kamala Harris is not humble because she does not have biological children.

The comments came during a town hall the governor moderated in Flint, Michigan, at first joking about how her children’s innocent remarks can make her feel humble despite her high-profile position.

Explain to me how what she thinks is relevant?

Fascist apologist says what?

Can we throw a dig at Sanders for looking like a Muppet that's been curb stomped by Elmo several dozen times?

Seriously, let's crowdfund some corrective surgeries for that vile twat.

If all you find to attack someone on is their physical appearance then you might as well just shut up... There's plenty to criticize Republicans for.

Not all just the tip of the iceberg but funny none the less

[–] [email protected] -4 points 7 hours ago

I can never stop looking at that goiter.

First, this was a GOP talking point long ago. She's late to the party. Second, she had to include "biological children", inferring raising a kid that isn't yours by DNA means you have NO CLUE what being a parent is like. Adoption and foster parents would think differently.

Seriously, Sanders, get your own state in order before you chime in on things. And Arkansas, do better next time.

The GOP is also the same party that tells people getting abortions to "PuT iT uP fOr AdOpTiOn!"

I didn't know Slagathor was still making noise. The bigger question is, why are we listening?

It's low rent quasi modo, get it right.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 9 hours ago

Why? Because she won't have enough underage workers for her state?

This is just so perfect

Sarah made the kids painstakingly write all the content on that paper by hand for $1/h and made them do it a thousand times until it looked like it was computer printed.

That's a lot of work to make breakfast and lunch for all the kids in MN!!

Aren't the Republicans own strategists screaming that this tactic isn't working?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 6 hours ago

I wouldn't doubt it. One thing Republicans used to be really good at was message discipline. Trump has almost literally eaten the brain of the party and those days are gone.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 7 hours ago

What, you expect a former Whitehouse Press Secretary to be current with her party platform?!

[–] [email protected] 30 points 10 hours ago (2 children)

Yeah, guess she didn’t get (or couldn’t read?) the memo

[–] [email protected] 1 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

You didn't get the memo? I'll make sure someone gets you a copy. You see, we're putting a cover sheet on all TPS reports now.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 hours ago

Y… yeah… I got the memo, it’s right here

[–] [email protected] 18 points 9 hours ago (2 children)

As someone who went to Arkansas public schools I can assure you she "cain't reed."

[–] [email protected] 2 points 5 hours ago* (last edited 5 hours ago) (1 children)

"Cain't" has always bugged my brain.

First, it should be spelled "c'a'i'n't". Second, what does "can are is not" mean?!?!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 hours ago

See: Arkansas public schools.

You've no idea if she's looking at you or looking for you.

I thought she had gone away. Too bad.
