Proof there is no bottom in how low “they” will go. I keep thinking “this is it” and they dive deeper than imagined. Democracy itself surely is the target, a minority doing everything possible to keep and hold privilege and power in face of demographic changes.

The idiot Lt Gov of N.C. is praising Hitler and telling people to read him. So now is the GOP in favor of genocide? They get more extreme by the day. And Gov. DeSatan is touting his devout Catholic faith. I could vomit.

I am in NC. Yeah, there is something amiss with Mark Robinson. I see a person who is motivated by nothing but power. Dangerous person.

God help us all if this vile, hateful demagogue sleazes his way into the White House. The fact that he’s even a candidate for POTUS should be horrifying & heartbreaking to any American who still believes in democracy & freedom

I'm surprised his 'campain' manager and insignificant other, Casey Desantis, hasn't opened an online Nazis"R"Us outlet to hawk 3rd Reich memorabilia to her army of brownshirt psychophants.

I know for a fact, Harlan Crow will be their best customer.

SCOTUS lackey ClarenceThomas Pain would agree. After all, it's just Uncommon Cents!

Vote D for Deliverance from evil.

I believe ultimately all of this non stop bigotry will prove to be too toxic even for most Trump supporters unless they are the very far corner of the fringe. Perhaps I’m being overly optimistic. People can be brainwashed. People can be willfully ignorant. People can be hurtful and hateful. I think with the demented newest dystopian bizarro ad, DeSatan is beginning to dig his own grave. His executive orders are being swatted down. His public appearances are underwhelming and embarrassing. He was an embarrassment in England and got a thumbs down. He is as thin skinned or more so than Cheeto45. Melts down when asked a basic question. People are taking note. The immigrant law in

Florikastan is galvanizing the entire business community against him. He’s crossed the line for many. I think we are starting to see that the tides will be turning against Meatball. Let’s hope the democrats don’t become complacent and screw this up. As nearly 45 to 47% of the country is under the spell of the Orange buffoon. Taking nothing for granted. If per chance the Dems gain both houses back hope they don’t shoot themselves in the foot. Dems need to get rid of Sinema from Arizona and Manchin. Both unreliable and undermining. SCOTUS must be pressured to expand and have term limits. DOJ needs to hold Clarabell Thomas and his wife KKK Ginny accountable as well as Alito ( nasty ) as well as the other robed bigots for their perjured confirmation hearings. But alas this is all wishful thinking. These are my utopian projections for what happens in authentic democracies

It seems in these modern times that the more outrageous, more cruel, more illogical a person or candidate or campaign gets ....their ticket gets punched and voted up, supported by a vast army of reactionary citizens. Democracy ends when the citizens feel that they are unable to achieve their goals, say the hell with it, I want mine and piss off to others with opposing viewpoints.

I gotta wonder if the same folks put this ad together as convinced Tucker Carlson his ball-tanning machine advertisement was right for the incels. I'm glad I'm not incel! Aren't you, Mike?!

That DeRacist has shown his hand in turning Florida fascist, his poll numbers are reflective of an ideology we rejected nationally in 2020. The doomed campaign he has embarked on will fail but will leave the nation wondering why he bothered to run against the man who ushered in the era governing via subtraction. The majority of this nation thoroughly enjoy basic rights and privileges unless you're a minority attempting to mimic the well connected or legacy inclined. The wrinkle since Trumpanzee is the violence laden rhetoric that appeals to the uninformed and outright gun enthusiasts. The civil war promised commenced in 2016 when the electoral college did it's intended purpose: ignored the popular vote. Your supreme court has surpassed it's intended purpose and has torn down the separation of governmental powers by overruling the executive branch when interpretation should be it's only purpose.Going forward Team Blue should be getting off it's back foot fighting fire with fire...Ditch the kid gloves when dealing with extremists.

The ad is deeply evil. How it was made and why Casey & Ron released it is a story I can wait to read later. What will be the reach and ripple effect of this poison? That's the immediate danger. Michael is absolutely right. This is an escalation that demands tough and immediate pushback. It will get worse now and the election is 16 months away.

The whole angle about the "incels" is fascinating, as a gay man, I would never have put two and two together like that. These are some scary people and that whole Nick Fuentes movement and while nationalist stuff is really scary!! the funny thing is some people who vote republican still feel they are above all of this and that they are sane ones, including members of the LGBTQIA community!!

This guy has a sick and demented mind just like Orange Hitler or does he? Seems to be trying to outdo the criminal in chief, only problem he has the personality of wallpaper paste. Like I've said before, the only way DeSatan gets close to the Oval Office is via a WH tour.

Mike, Bloomberg reports that there is now a place to buy from "conservative" companies; it's called Public Square. I went to PS and looked at some of the companies - laughs aplenty from a vendor called Nimi, which sells creams and potions (primarily for women) and states they are "for feminity, faith and family." Along with the creams and potions seller was, of course, a firing range, and a beef seller. There's also a company started by a former IAMs employee because she didn't like IAMs' "woke" attitude toward pet food. LMAO!

It's hard to believe that a majority of Americans are sharing space with creatures like DeKlantis and the Trump cultists, and people looking for pet food that isn't 'woke'!

I've predicted before, and I'm still willing to go there, that DeSantis will capture the lead that Trump enjoys by the end of this year. There is no other candidate that the base will support. Haley, Scott, Hutchinson: has-beens who are not wiling to embrace a war on "wokeness" head-on. DeSantis will peel off Christians first. The rest will follow, including the institutional types.

I'm just not sure how DeSantis pulls it off in the general election, though. Short of cheating and Electoral College shenanigans. I'm hoping for Tim Scott to pull it out, only because it would show some indication of sanity in the Republican Party, and because Scott seems to be the least likely to allow deplorables into the cabinet and high offices. Maybe.

Scott is just as extreme as the rest of them. They just don't how to get their centrist message across and couple it with trumpism...

On top of that, this poorly made campaign ad is rather vertigo-inducing.

Ron Deathsentence's weird ad definitely appeals to the poorly educated racists who have the attention span of a gnat. They are stuck in this alt-right YouTube bubble in which they think this microcosm of racist right-wing channels (who's subscriber count is highly inflated, and is propped up by wealthy donors) is representative of the majority of americans.
