GOP Senator Admits Blanche Is Pretty Bad as He Votes to Confirm Him

"I know it's wrong but I'm going to do it anyway," is what you say when you eat a second slice of pie, not when you put a corrupt man into a position of great power.

We have, what, over 300 million people in this country, but Blanche is worth confirming? There must be literally millions of people who would do a better job. We don't have to settle for this guy specifically.

You know, when I was a child, I naively believed that politics was about different groups trying to do the right thing, but who disagreed about the best way to do it. Now they're openly admitting to intentionally doing evil things that harm their own country and its citizens.

“Everybody has this view that they are as pure as the driven snow and it’s the other side that has a problem. I think we both have a problem, folks. If you want to talk about weaponization, take a look at the Biden administration, take a look at the Obama administration,” Tillis said.

“The bottom line is, nobody is clean here, and until we start recognizing this behavior as bad, we’re just going to one-up it. Maybe it’s a little bit more intense in this administration than the last one, and that a little bit more intense the prior administration, and so on and so forth, but folks, we’ve got to end this stuff. We do,” Tillis continued.

“I’m gonna support Mr. Blanche’s nomination, but what I hope I see out of him is a bending of the curve of this absurdity.”

Motherfucker YOU are the absurdity!

If there's something you can always count the Republicans on, it's consistently working against the interests of their constituents, and always doing what's worst for the country.

Sadly, so do the Democrats most of the time. But at least unlike the Republicans, it's not because they're evil, but because they're fucking tools.

The GOP and the DNC are the sword and shield of the wealthy elites respectively.

The only thing that's changed in the past 10 years is that MAGA started primarying GOP incumbents and pulling the party further right.

I mean, this is the "my job is to keep the left pro-Israel" guy. If there's something we can describe as evil in the 21st century, it's Zionism.

True enough. Although I was just considering how bad the folks on Capitol Hill were to their own country.

But come to think of it, clearly supporting Israel clearly proves bad for whichever country chooses to support it. So yeah, you got a point.
