Nah, he is just a minor and inconsequential stooge in all of this. He has already long since been abandonded by the masters he served.

When the masters begin keeling over then we will see real healing.

About the same as the normal "thoughts and prayers" statement I think, just with a funny visual.

Who's ready for the pearl-clutching over people replicating trump's tweet about Mueller, reshaped to be about this fucking ghoul?

He was the primary person who incited the insurrection on the day of January 6. He told a mob of angry Trump supporters that they had to fight or they wouldn't have a country anymore.

But he's gotten no real punishment for his actual crimes. His suffering now is of the sort that could happen to anybody, even if they lived the most virtuous life.

I know he'll never face actual justice, but I'm personally not happy with this as a substitute.

January 6th was the only principled thing MAGA ever did.

Literally the only time they appeared to genuinely believe their own bullshit. Of course, they ran away with their tails between their legs as soon as shit got real…

But I’m sick of hearing American liberals clutch their pearls about how terrible it is to do a January 6th. Doing a January 6th isn’t immoral- doing it FOR THE REASONS IT WAS DONE is immoral. And you’re going to have to do a lot worse than a January 6th if you want any hope at all of getting your country back.

The only place I disagree with you is the idea that MAGA can be described as having this singular united motive at the time.

You have the grifters at the top who know it's bullshit, but who have found a huge pool of the world's easiest marks. You have a lot of genuine believers. You have a lot of people who don't have any beliefs but who simply do as they're told. You have a lot of people who are just trying to fit in. And you have a bunch of little Nazi wannabes who know everybody else is being grifted, but who either simply like hurting other groups of people, or they believe that they'll eventually become the grifters.

With MAGA, like with most political groups, if you want a crowd of specific types, you just have to pick who is in the crowd.

Well yeah, this is what accounts for them scattering like cowards as soon as that garbage woman took a very entertaining bullet to the neck.

I find it funny that, for better or worse, history would have remembered Rudy as the mayor who had to deal with the chaos of 9/11. Not an endorsement of him, but that would have been the defining moment in our collective memory of him. Now all we’re going to picture is a sweaty dude rambling in front of a landscaping shop. What a fucking tool.

I will pay all the money I have if trump is next. It’s not much, but I will do my part.

Stable condition doesn't sound great but I haven't given up hope yet

You’re snatching up the wrong asshole, Death. I mean, take this prick too. But…come on. You know the one we really want shuffled off to hell.

The nice thing about getting old is that you get to watch the assholes you despise die off... without even having to lift a finger.

Not sure, but him melting at the four seasons landscaping will be living in my head for years.

tbf, this is a net positive for the right. That creep was a liability. A shame he got fired by Cheeto Benito too, his fuckups as a lawyer were classic.

Awww. Poor guy. Anyway I’m hungry again. What should I eat?
