    Yeah.

    It’s about time for conservatives to move on to the next felon rapist pedophile racist scumbag dipshit.

    Anyone that thinks conservatives learn anything from their poor decisions is either pretty young or hasn’t been paying attention.

    The next bigot will capture their attention and they’ll choose to place their bigotry over their own welfare and the welfare of their nation…again.

    young Republicans were eager to start the post-Trump era

    No no no no no. You fuckers don’t get to just skip away from this mess and have a redo. You need to own this disaster and be pulled into all the legal ramifications for all the catastrophic damage you’ve facilitated.

    If they are still Republican, it’s the same shit. Sure, maybe the shine is off of Taco, personally, but if they are still Republicans, it’s the same shitty anti-American values at their core.

    Always has been.

    My vibe is that many of them are not done with the fascism, the theocracy, the racism, and the violence, they’re just done with dottering old Trump and the podcaster-Cabinet being pathetic losers.

      Exactly.

      They’re tired of Trump because he’s old and his schtick is getting repetitive. They’ll hop on the next bigot train as soon as it pulls into the station.

    I’m gonna be honest here, it’s gonna take a lot for me to feel like Republicans deserve a second chance. Like, every registered Republican gets to pay reparations — for starters. And I don’t mean to me specifically, I actually just mean straight up reparations to black people. We can talk about reparations for everyone else in the world fucked over by them after they agree to that.

        That’s the thing, it doesn’t matter who I picked first — expecting Republicans to take responsibility for everything their kind has done is an impossibility. These people will never pay reparations willingly. It doesn’t matter if they’re to black people, gay people, trans people; these people will always try to get out of it despite having terrorized them for generations.

        Shit, just look at the Nazis. A Jew signed the Treaty of Versailles? Well it must be the Jews that are the reason why we’re suffering post WW1 — certainly not because of the consequences of our actions. These types of people are perpetually punching down.

          I definitely agree that a heavy handed approach is necessary. These people have routinely taken advantage of forgiveness. It would be stupid to try again.

      Why are you even humoring the idea of giving them a second chance?

      They would never do the same to you. All you are doing is being weak and letting them do this all again in the future.

        Oh, don’t get me wrong. My idea of a second chance involves what amounts to MAGAts choosing to voluntarily become slaves. It starts with reparations for African Americans, then we keep going down the list of people who have been harmed by their idealogy (I don’t really care what the order is, eventually we’d reach everyone that isn’t republican).

        In other words, it’s something that will never happen.
