So, are you gloating again? How elevating it must be always to find something to gloat over.

I thought he was despairing the stupidity of his fellow conservatives.

Not gloating, I’m shocked. I thought Silicon Valley leaned left.

Leaned. Not fell over. We liberals are willing to live with others in our midst.

California probably has more voters registered Republican than any other state.

The report still shows Democrats out register Republicans across California nearly two to one, but the California Republican Party says it's encouraged by the numbers. The latest registration report, which tracked voter registration between October 2023 and January 2024, shows Republicans slightly increased the number of registered voters in every single State Assembly, State Senate and Congressional District.

Doesn't appear that Republicans outnumber Democrats in CA. What was the source of your claim?

That wasn't his claim. His claim was that California had more registered Republicans. It could be inaccurate, but it's not, according to Ballotpedia

Mustering up the maximum amount of respect I have for your dancing abilities: bollocks.

Lemme get this straight: We are supposed to believe Trump's claims for how much money he raised?

No, you are not. You are supposed to believe whatever Brent claims as if it were well researched, unbiased, chiseled in stone, or even made a form of sense on offer somewhere in the galaxy.

Yeah, like that "red wave" he was gloating over, turned out well didn't it?

I remember when Donald Trump said he had so much money that he would self-finance his presidential run. Well, like he said when he talked about "DRAIN THE SWAMP"....."Then, I started saying it like I meant it."

And then you really showed those Ukrainians who's boss, I suppose that's just a bonus.

The Republican controlled House approved $95 billion in Ukrainian aid.

And now he is begging for money to pay his . . . judgment to the woman he raped.

So much winning!

Come on man. Just let the mask slip once and acknowledge the reality of the situation instead of the party line.

More Republicans voted against it than for it.

You have got to be shitting me. You need to put down that exhaust pipe, yo.

[wmw999 2,451]

Oh, he's entirely accurate. The Republicans have a (razor-thin) majority in the House, and the House did pass aid to Ukraine. That the majority of Republicans didn't support the bill is irrelevant to the statement. 

That the majority of the Republicans didn't support it is, however, relevant to the evaluation of how Republicans are doing in general. And, frankly, that the Republicans are happy to change their tune to the dog whistle of a certain orange-headed party leader, even in the case where it'll hurt the country (immigration bill anyone?) if plenty of evidence that good will and trying to actually govern isn't tops on their list.

How is this?
The House Republicans are largely a bunch of chickenshits who will do whatever the dumbass Trump tells them to do. And I don’t think Trump could even find Ukraine on a map.

And you're happy that they're there because?

That escapes no one. But it was a horse shit claim, beyond his normal disingenuous game.

No but they are better than the alternative. The massive deficit spending in the American Rescue Plan and the ironically named Inflation Reduction Act are the primary reason for the highest levels of inflation in a generation.
