Proof that America is full of dumbasses, the PA and GA senate races. Dummies everywhere.

My god it's fearsome.  I didn't really expect this to happen in state-wide Senate races.

It is.  The founders foresaw this possibility.  The 17th amendment ended this check.

I haven't been paying attention because I could give a shit, but what's going on in PA and GA? I know Dr Oz (moron) is running in PA and that's about it.

Repeal the 17th. I've been saying that to anyone that will listen for years.

Oz is a moron, Fetterman is a moron and just had a stroke, Warnock and Walker are both dummies as well. Any normal person would run circles around them.

None of these morons are on the ballot without the nationalization of the Senate.

Oh yeah, Herschel's running isn't he? They definitely aren't sending their best and brightest.

The same mindset behind the 17th are those that want to repeal the electoral college.  The final nail needed to drive the nail into the coffin of the repulblic.

How much you wanna bet if the Dems pick-up a few Senate seats and keep the House, they're going to stack the SCOTUS?  Rather than, you know, actually pass a bill legalizing abortion.

Hopefully it's all just election pandering rhetoric, but they're kind of setting it up so that "we have to do these things to protect Democracy from MAGA".  Or, in other words, "we have to be fascist to save you from semi-fascism".

I know no once cares, I’ll be the voice sharing these in case any of you clowns decide enough is enough. 

Thank you for your service.

Seems the R policy is to do their best to throw easily winnable races by sending out utter clowns for the sole reason that they kissed up to Trump at the right time to get his support. Got a super-prog like Warnock in Georgia of all places, send out a barely articulate former NFLer who has a full laundry load of red flags. Got a dude coming off a stroke in Pennsylvania, send out a quack TV doctor whose idea of a "gotcha" post is to ramble about how much it costs to serve crudite. Basically turned Ohio from a battleground state to a fairly red one, send out a dude who wrote a book and did a 180 on his opinion of Trump the second he realized that not liking him was going to make him an afterthought to a cranky boomer (Gibbons) and a creepy looking guy whose entire platform was "You remember I served in the military, don't you!?!?" (Mandel).

It's all gotten to the point where I don't even know what anyone's endgame is. Is it a race to see which side can have more unqualified morons holding office? Because as self-defeating (and, well, just defeating to everyone else) as that is, it makes more sense than anything else looking at a lot of these fucks.

It's been a problem for a long time, but seems even more pronounced now.  Moderates don't turn out well in primaries, and so you have the far left or far right "base" giving everyone else a choice of nutjobs.

Also, the 4th Estate is dead.  Our media has done an excellent job of making politics a spectator sport, where no matter how badly your team sucks you'll be a homer and keep rooting.

You will be quickly labeled an anti-democracy nut by the idiots that have no idea we live in a republic or clue what that means.

55 shot; 11 killed in Chicago over Labor Day weekend.  None of the shooters was a MAGA republican.

Abrams is one of the dumbest people making hundreds of thousands from the other idiots, but this is a wildly wrong take. Says ultrasound heart beats were created to fuck women….

Good one. The current press sec and Abrams also said the election was stolen, among others. But you really got me. Can’t imagine being so odd that I’d vote for the weirdo left. Stop grooming kids and defunding police.

Considering most Dems thought the 2016 election was stolen, including Abrams…yeah, her adding on that a fetal heartbeat is manufactured by men to make them believe they can rule over a woman’s body is worse, far worse.
