Laurie from Pennsylvania called into my SiriusXM show on Thursday to claim I called the Barrett nomination “illegal,” when I did not.
I then explained to her the extraordinary breaking of norms Republicans engaged in by pushing through this nomination, and how Democrats now have no choice but to expand the Supreme Court.
Having run out anything to really say, she diverted to calling me a “very angry man.”
Yes, I’m angry at the GOP for the recklessness they’ve engaged in, moving to strip my and millions of others’ rights.
And I’m angry at Trump — whom Laurie claimed she didn’t vote for, but then didn’t seem to have a quick answer regarding whom she actually cast her ballot for.
Take a listen!
Running out of reasoning, Trumper woman says I'm a "very angry" man
Michael,
Caller Laurie was a complete fraud. She tried to misrepresent what you said and then, fell back on you “being angry”.
I just love how you calmly correct and called her out. I also appreciate you acknowledging your anger and providing supporting reasons.
Keep up the great work!👍🏿
Mike, you have every right to be angry!
Any of us who are not angry are not facing the seriousness of the abuses of power and breaking of laws and rules by Trump and Republicans in power. Republicans get elected and implement policies by lying and cheating. Trump has broken countless laws since entering the White House and not a peep has been uttered by Republicans. The replacement of Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s seat on the Supreme Court would not be an issue if Mitch McConnell followed the same rationale that he used in denying Barack Obama’s appointment of a justice during his last year in office. Obama’s replacement was submitted in the 1st quarter of 2016 and not attempted to jammed through the Senate just 3 weeks before election Day.
Republicans are now throwing a fit over the thought that if Joe Biden is elected president and the Democrats gain control of the Senate that Democrats will “pack the court.” This wouldn’t be an issue if the GOP (Greed Only Priority) followed the same rules they have imposed on the Democrats.
There is a strong possibility that Biden will win and the Democrats will gain enough seats to flip the Senate. Americans are fed-up with Trump’s behavior, endless lies, hate-filled diatribes and failed policies. They are equally disgusted by Republicans in Congress enabling Trump by refusing to call him on the harm he has caused.
Republicans realize that this election could be a bloodbath for them. Rather than breaking with Trump and repositioning their party platform they are already planning on how to make sure that Joe Biden fails if he becomes president. The well-being of Americans isn’t important to them.
Damn right you are angry! So am I!
