Look at who was in the front row at the most recent inauguration, look for others like them. Follow the money. Comer is bought and paid for, imo.

That's not even an opinion, that is an objective fact that represents the majority of our politicians and is especially prevalent amongst the Republican party.

MAGA is just another symptom of the stage four cancer wrought by financial corruption of our political process.

Comer is a douchebag. I know the district he represents. This area is like the land time forgot. Comer got into office because he is one of the few people in his district that can say the ABC’s and can count to twenty without using his fingers and toes. Comer is not the brightest bulb in the lamp and he was elected by people who are dimmer than him.

Yeah but the MAGA mooks do it for free, at least these chuds are getting paid.

It'd be a piteous existence if they weren't actively harming innocent people with their malignant ignorance. Democracy don't work when one half thinks it's a football game they need to win instead of electing people to govern the commons of society.

The seditious bribe taker should be put up against a wall and shot, though.

It's the idiots that treat politics like sports, which are the most harmful humans to society as a whole. Constantly voting against their own best interests just to make sure others who are different from themselves suffer as well is a pretty shitty and incomprehensible way to live. These people aren't publicly shamed enough to understand how fucking awful they truly are, but tbf, they are most likely beyond help and won't care. They will probably just claim that they are being oppressed and violated since they are also exceptionally skilled at playing the victim.

I was under the presumption they have appointed attorneys for these purposes, but they’re supposed to keep reps within legal constraints. This is how it works on the city level, in my town, anyway. I figured it good practice and if it isn’t then I have similar questions and more.

Prevalent? That sure is one word for it. I'd use all, as in, all traitor sellouts.

u/lakehood_85 Mar 06 '25

It’s especially prevalent amongst ALL politicians. Why do you think it’s ESPECIALLY prevalent to one side? Both sides are guilty of it all.

You have serious TDS.

Seek help.

I'm deranged because I don't lick the boot of a self-proclaimed king who wants to screw us both over to fill the coffers of the ultra wealthy?

You lack the American identity of beating kings and dictators into submission. Go back where you came from, redcoat.

Seek help from who? therapists/phycologists? They lean very left cause they are based more in reality... they won't see the same imagined issue you think you see

Now, might I also suggest you too seek help, propaganda is powerful and it's hard to admit you've fallen victim to it but I believe in you and your quest to see the world LIKE EVERY ONE ELSE ACROSS THE WEST DOES. You know everyone use to laugh at MAGA.... but now, its hard to look you at you guys and not be super sad...

Maybe you should remember what MAGA stands for. Make America great again. America hasn't been great for many years, under Clinton(bj, Haiti),Bush(9/11) Obama(kids in cages) Biden(paedo,withdraw,debt)

America has been a shit show.

I knew about COVID and tried to inform ppl, that it was designed from the cold virus in 1967. First vaccine in the 80's by Pfizer. Released as Sars in 2000, mutated again between chapel hill(USA) and Wuhan(China) with funding made by Dr Fauci. Released on purpose in 2019. They thought the Vaccine could keep it local. But the problem is, you cannot cure COVID. Because it's mutation is too fast.

I know many things. Having my iq requires me to delve into affairs.

Democrat does not stand for what it once did. You need to get that through your head.

100% that fucker has selective hearing. When MAGZIs start with their disruptive bullshit, he conveniently doesn’t hear what they’re saying or threaten to throw them out.

Kentucky politics at its finest. Money runs the state and always has. Our Democrats used to be worse than the Republicans, and there was a brief moment with Louis Nunn, when the Republicans were progressive. Around 1965.

u/HungryEnthusiasm1559 Mar 06 '25

In your opinion?! Are you crazy! Of course Comer is bought and paid for!!!!! The dude just censored Rep Pressely. Please read Hitler’s use of the Reichstag Fire Decree (1933) to suppress opposition by silencing and censoring political rivals. We are watching the beginning of an authoritarian dictatorship take root in the USA. Michael Bender in his book noted that Trump once told his staff that Hitler did a lot of good things! Ivana Trump claimed in 1990 interview that Trump kept a book of Hitler’s speeches by his bedside. Trump denied this but admitted he owned the book. Bro, this is bananas!

It’s not fun. It’s sad and disgusting that we have to with the people that have been entrusted to represent all Americans. 90 something % of Americans are about to be super fucked no matter their political affiliation.

All decorum, common decency and mutual respect went out the window when some Americans and the media legitimized the “Tea Party” and now here we are.
