Donald Trump, Ted Cruz, Marco Rubio, JD Vance’s kids, and Barron Trump are all children of immigrants. Hypocrisy means nothing to MAGA.
I’d argue it’s one of their core beliefs. Almost a requirement to be a MAGA is to be a hypocrite.
Dude, don't dis one of the core tenants of the modern conservative movement like that. Hipocrisy is right next to racism as an essential piece of republican dogma.
IDK, I think it's just the conservative MO.. "fuck you, I got mine"
Isn't Ted Cruz technically an immigrant?
Sorry.
'If they didn't have double standards, they'd have no standards at all.'
When will liberals learn that fascists literally don't care when you point out their hypocrisy? They revel in it
But when they don't point it out everyone bitches and says "why won't they call them out on it!!"
Fascists don't care, and we all know they're hypocrites. But far too many people, who should know better, don't. So it absolutely needs to be restated constantly.
Yep. It's quite literally an expression of power for them. Pointing it out does nothing but feed them.
Yeah, the left wing and right wing are basically always pissed. But when you piss off the centrists and non-politicals, that's when shit starts happening. Not that they'll do anything, of course. But that support means a lot when you're talking about keeping their mouth shut at certain times, or not reporting certain things.
Both sides, amiright?!
Did I say that at all? I made one comparison. And I am in one of those groups, so why would I compare myself to the other?
Edit: and yes, I have been pissed ever since the department of Justice let that vile piece of shit run for office while on trial for dozens of felonies. I feel I deserve to be pissed about everything right now.
Just like Musk, Giuliani, Herman Cain, My Pillow asshole, etc., they all thought they were special. They thought they were in the "in" crowd. It's a fragile position no matter who you are, because you're "in" only until they don't have a use for you.
Bezos, Zuck, Miller, they'll all find out eventually that they aren't special too.
Yeah, even "powerless" narcissists need someone to feed their ego, and will eventually turn on that person and need a new one.
It's just worse when the narcissist has power.
Ok, this packs a punch indeed. Thank you for sharing that quote from the article.
No, you see, things are totally different now vs. when Miller's ancestors emigrated here! It's as different as black and white....
Damn, that poor guy (the author). Can you imagine having Stephen Miller in your family?! 🤮
2018, and no less relevant.
I remember this article from the time…
