What's with this in the article?

she was asked to answer xxxx’s line of questioning

A placeholder that got missed by the ai editor?

[–] tonytins@pawb.social 35 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Be funny if MTG said that while in the UK.

[–] thr0w4w4y2@sh.itjust.works 16 points 1 month ago (2 children)

she would not be welcome in the UK. We do not tolerate fascism here.

[–] punksnotdead@slrpnk.net 22 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Lol I wish. A fascist party got the third most votes at the last election.

[–] thr0w4w4y2@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)

they won five out of 650 seats, not even 1% 🙂

[–] RustyShackleford@programming.dev 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Not a lot. Should be zero. But at least it's below 10.

[–] thr0w4w4y2@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)

If they had zero support there would be no need for places to sell milkshakes.

[–] Sturgist@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 month ago

I'm honestly shocked that people manage to find a McDonald's with a functioning milkshake machine often enough to turn it into a tradition

If that was true you wouldn’t even entertain the thought of letting the states into the commonwealth

The good news is, Marjorie Taylor Greene's craziness may be starting to wear her constituents' patience thin.

Although that is great news, I hope we're all taking notes about how far Republicans are willing to let their elected officials go before them being pieces of shit finally matters more than owning the libs. Quite fucking far, like destruction of the nation far. (Trump still polling at 92% approval with Republicans)

If we have free and fair elections again, let's all please remember this. I plan to reach the end of natural life expectancy without ever pulling a lever for R, not even for the tiniest of local positions. They showed us what they do when they get power in 2017, then had four years to plan, and now are really showing us where their values are. Turns out their values are exactly as shitty as we expected.

R is the party of destruction, intentional harm, and bigotry. It's all they do.

She is absolutely the biggest piece of shit when it comes to common decency

[–] Treczoks@lemmy.world 18 points 1 month ago

As the reporter, I would write a big general article about the unhingedness of American politicians, with MTG as a shining example, and Sarah Palin as supporting evidence.

[–] TrickDacy@lemmy.world 16 points 1 month ago

Fuck that hag. I hate her with every fiber of my being.

[–] nulluser@lemmy.world 16 points 1 month ago

You can't unleash an unhinged tirade if it was never hinged or leashed to begin with.

Karen: the final boss

[–] LookBehindYouNowAndThen@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago (1 children)

She argues like she works out— just a lot of desperate flailing.

[–] deeferg@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

Same way she governs to be fair, might just be all she knows.

[–] Generic_Idiot@lemm.ee 5 points 1 month ago

Holy shit she’s actually dumb as fuck

[–] Jerb322@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

The "TWUNT" pillow comment is hilarious!

[–] girsaysdoom@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 month ago

Wow, what a joke of a human being.

[–] paraphrand@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

She should go back to under her bridge.

[–] TwoBeeSan@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

I got excited because I thought that was a noose behind her.

Damn. One day.
