Usually in my experience, the people who call you a whore want to fuck you the most
Take some Obama racism, mix with some leftover Hilary misogyny, bake for 15 minutes, and ta-da! Anti-Harris campaign all set to be consumed by your average cousin fucking maga voter!
This is what I was waiting for.
Faced with a black/asian woman, the Republicans just aren't going to be able to help themselves - their hateful bigotry is going to keep rearing its ugly head.
The key moment is going to be when Candidate Lardbucket himself lets some of his own racism and misogyny fall out of his festering gob. That's going to be glorious.
They went from zero to fully mask-off in less than 24 hours. I'm amazed at the quickness of it.
If you were in a red state during the Obama campaign/presidency you wouldn't be surprised.
Yeah, the overly racist shit that popped up all over rural NV was pretty disgusting.
Honestly, I am too.
I fully expected it, but not this soon.
Looking forward to more though. Every one of these is just more votes against Trump.
My hope is not to change them. But it is to change their children. Or those adjacent. If we keep trying to change them, we will never win.
The propaganda machine was full throttle on Biden is old and unfit, that as soon as switch happened Republicans were scrambling to grab onto the first thing they could come up with, of course racism and misogyny are the fallbacks.
I've personally seen the "Genocide Joe" voices smoothly transition into "unhinged prosecutor" in no time flat.
I hear you and want to believe this too, but I am forever surprised at how much pro Trumpers are willing to ignore and just how many of them there are. His base will cheer him on and the rest will make excuses or turn a blind eye.
I hope I'm wrong
If straight as an arrow, happily married Kamala Harris is a whore, what does that make our convicted, porn star fucking, wife cheating, child molesting ex president Trump?
Misleading headline. Whatever it is they are "descending" into, they passed through misogyny quite a while back.
This is excellent. They have absolutely nothing of substance to use as ammunition. They will have only their bigotry and absurd conspiracy theories as we head into election season.
Biden is a national treasure for this.
I went sleuthing last night. Skimming some pertinent imageboards/forums, looking for the spin they'd be going with. I encountered sheer panic and they got nothing, except misogyny/racism and the lame claim she isn't a mother. That's it - for now.
E.g. on /pol/ they were trolling themselves with a supposedly deceased Biden because he went AWOL for 5 days or something. LMAO.
This shows that the GOP is playing angry white man identity politics. If you aren't that you aren't welcome
Republican Missouri secretary of state candidate Valentina Gomez just went on an unhinged rant attacking Vice President Kamala Harris on X, where she called her a “little wh*re,” as conservatives posted misogynist memes and jokes about Harris.
“Kamala Harris slept her way to the top, and Tulsi Gabbard already destroyed and exposed her in 2020. Kamala is just another DEI hire, and President Trump is going to eat her alive,” she said in a video.
I hate to break it to you but you’re never going to be racist or sexist enough to be fully accepted by them…
lol A token GOP minority female is calling Kamala a DEI hire. FFS
This psycho was just in the news for attaching her Democratic opponent for "raising a groomer" because one of her grandkids is trans. She makes Marjorie Taylor Green look polite by comparison, and the shame of it is that, given how state-level politics have been trending in Missouri, she's got a decent shot of winning in the general just because of the magic (R).
So normal GOP stuff?
Good. This will piss off women voters.
Except the trumper women. Many of them are totally cool with misogynistic stuff as long as it’s against an other. One of the first reactions I saw to this sudden Kamala situation was a woman posting a still image of Harris talking with an O-shaped mouth. Then some obvious degrading comment about being ready to do her job or whatever.
Incredible how mask-off they've become over the last eight years. And we somehow tolerate it as though this is somehow acceptable behavior. Society should shun anyone who acts like this.
Nothing new here. The GOP is the undisputed king of projection. Maybe they were projecting off Melania.
Descend? Pfff, that's their playground
My guy, the GOP is so full of hate that they'd have to ascend to get to misogyny.
This is the same candidate who filmed an ad where she is running with a bulletproof vest, a pistol and a rifle down the streets and then says "in America you can be anything you want, so don't be weak and gay" and tagged Andrew Tate on it.
It seems she's amping up the Marjorie Taylor green strategy of saying the most outrageous offensive shit to trigger the libs and rally her bigoted base.
$5 says she calls Kamala's VP pick a pedophile.
in america...be anything you want
Except urself if you're gay cuz thats one of muh rulez that you have to live by
I remember when political attacks where factual. The republikkklowns just make shit up now, it's so childish it's honestly sad. They are no longer a political party, they're just trash.
Keep your powder dry. “Little whore” is going to seem mild compared to what’s coming.
Harris has to run a smart campaign. A competence revolution. An adult is there to take the wheel.
Descends into? As if they haven’t been drowning in misogyny for decades
The party that was Pearl clutching about the lefts "violent rhetoric" goes right back to crazy insults and unhinged accusations.Yeah I wonder which side is riling everyone up..
Expect a lot more like this. It's all they have.
And they are going to be driven nuts by everyone pointing how unprecedented it is to have someone as old as Dementia Donnie in the general...
Like a bad whore? Or the kind Trump sleeps with?
Wait. So you’re telling me that water, when applied to most things, tends to make those things… wet?!
ffs what next? Bears that live in the woods often shit in the woods? Many species of birds are known for their ability to fly?
Am I being too optimistic in seeing this as an opportunity? Surely even MAGA-women object to someone being called a whore just because she’s successful? Surely even MAGA-women have limits to being treated as second class citizens? Surely even MAGA-women can connect that with old white men controlling their reproductive process and see the slippery slope they’re already flying down?
Typical... Good lord they have zero shame.
Who could have seen this coming? I'm shocked. SHOCKED, I tell you!
This lady is fucking crazypants. She's really trying to ramp up the fear and hatred. She's also Hispanic, so I'm sure she's just batshit insane if she doesn't realize the party she's trying to align with is not working for her best interests.
well when your entire campaign strategy revolves around making absolutely sure that turnout is so low you get in by default, what did you expect
ironically, this will help her
Descends?
Displays…
This is always who they were.
So they're saying Trump would sleep with her? Yeah I guess that's pretty insulting
