  1. What a pitiful indictment on America that no decent person would hold up Scump as a role model for ANYTHING.
    99
  2. No, a century of fascistic, racist, Republicans and the slide towards corporatism and the influence of money in politics lead to this. Craven senators afraid to oppose Trump was just the cherry on top.

  3. Just before they changed his nappy.
    55
  4. Americans wear their patriotism in the same way as they wear their Christianity - loudly, and from a position of total ignorance about the documents that they proclaim to uphold.
    46
  5. No, we're still laughing. This is a totally self-inflicted wound. Decades of bigotry and selfishness and the glorification of ignorance coming home to roost.
    42
  6. Who do you think is watching these ads? Do you really thik that there are undecided voters tuning in? Anyone who s still undecided is functionally brain dead, just like Trump's supporters, and those moronic alternate candidate voters.

  7. That was powerful. Just remember, all the politicians and businesses that stood by while that happened. Over 200k times.

  8. I forgive the people who voted him in. The people who STILL support him are fucking pond slime.

  9. 400 years of racism says it's not.

  10. Weak - he could be pro business, but against a single, specific business.

  11.  @erosionhead420  For what?

  12. Superbly articulated.

  13.  @WouterZtube  I agree. You LIVE your patriotism in your support of your fellow countrymen. You don't need to proclaim it constantly.
    7
  14.  @bobf5360  Yes, I agree with you totally. America has never in my lifetime had such a blatantly self serving president and it's shocking the way the media has enabled him. Fox ought to lose its broadcasting licence for sedition.

  15.  Jacob Assborn  Over 80% of the US public is in favour of SOME form of sensible gun control. Gun buy backs are SO toothless as to be nothing but lip service - an easy win for the appearance of moderation whilst doing nothing to tackle the actual problem. LP has marketed itself on being staunch Republicans standing against tyrant kings.

  16. Nonsense. They just have the sense to recognise that Scump is so overt in his bigotry that he risks destroying the party. NO Republiscum is decent or they wouldn't be members of that party."a decent Republican" is oxymoronic.

  17. I wouldn't trust them as far as I can throw them, but they seem to be serving democratic interests at the moment.

  18. I just wish he wasn't so desperately out of touch.

  19.  @tinat.4508  Well said Tina.

  20. I very much hope Republiscum voters are the first to die. A dramatic shift in the voting demographic.

  22.  @rloomis3  Nice.

  23. Every member of the Lincoln Project was fine with active racism when they were Republicans. Never forget.
    2
  24.  @Limoredin  Absolutely, and now you have a goddamned Democratic candidate talking about diluting his cabinet by appointing Republican filth. Biden is a pathetic corporatist candidate foisted on the American people. But he's still better than anything the GOP can offer. And what a dismal reflection THAT is on US political corruption.
    2
  25. Utterly.

  26. See if he cares when they start coming after his fake tan.

  27. Joe Biden is a grouchy, corporatist, incrementalist, sexist,. out of touch old fart 20 years past his sell by date. He loves his kids. Big deal. So do most fathers. It's appalling that this is the best the corporate-owned Democrats allowed to rise up, and despicable that he is currently the best hope to save America from becoming a full on dictatorship.

  28. The more of them that die, the better for America. Please, have a Covid party in your churches and restaurants. Have covid sleepovers. Ignore Herman Cain, and all the other muppets who died from Covid after denying it - it's all a deep state trap. Go on, I'm sure YOU won't die from it.

  29. Keeping my eyes on the truth that the Lincoln Project is run by racists who were happy to divide the nation before Trump.

  30. The senate needs to get the exterminators in to address its rodent problem.

  31. Never forget, all the members of Lincoln Project were just fine with the Republican's racially dividing Southern Strategy. They're not friends of the left.

  43. You guys are like playground fight goaders. Pathetic.

  44. NO REPUBLICAN has the right to invoke the names of civil rights campaigners in their fight. You ALL chose to be part of a party that used the Southern Strategy to foment racial division for over 50 years. Half of you would be putting on white hoods right now if it was not so damaging. This is a shameless piece of pandering that proves how disingenuous the Lincoln Project is.

  45. The irony of Republicans who were fine with Texas' power mismanagement, criticising one of their own is not lost to anyone.

  46. What about his moronic fans taking some responsibility for their own actions? Nobody was forcing them to be dumbasses and risk their lives.

  47.  @GnomaticReverie  No, I mean Biden. Insulting young voters and minimising their problems was a moronic thing to do. Failing to recognise the huge voting block of the Sanders voters was moronic. Telling people "If you don't like it, don't vote for me" - repeatedly, was moronic. Biden is a creepy old guy who will only be good for the country in contrast. It's insulting to the country that he is who the Dems helped to become the candidate, but then given the abject failure of Obama, I think the entiire party needs to be lopped off at the neck.

  48. I'd like to think that most of the evictees were Scump voters but the universe doesn't work that well. But for every lazy centrist or left winger who couldn't be bothered to vote last time; for every asshat who ignored the unequivocal signs Scump gave BEFORE the election that he was a monster and voted for him anyway; for every "Christian" POS who convinced themselves that a man who screws hookers, insults everyone, and cheats everyone, yet can't even hold a Bible the right way up, that this vermin was still somehow "doing the lord's work", I'd like extend a masssive f*ck you, and I hope that you're all first to be turned out onto the streets.

  49. The Lincoln Project owners promoted racism when they were Republicans through the Southern Strategy for DECADES. Hypocrites.

  51. 100% spot on. We knew Mitch was vermin long before Scump turned up, but Graham is one of the enabling slime that should face a court for treason. His performance during he Kavanaugh hearing made me want to punch him in the face. Hard.

  52. Now all you have to do is fix murderous cops, racism, corruption of the entire, politicial process, the medical and pharmacutical industry's stranglehold, inadequate wages, millions unemployed, a supreme court stacked with republicans sex abusers, the repeal of Roe v Wade, 75 million brainwashed and often treasonous Trump voters, a dishonest media, a chronically partisan government, literal seditionists and QAnon supporters IN government, climate change, America's rock bottom reputation across the globe, the fossil fuel industry, a bloated military, billions wasted on Israeli aid, selling arms to Saudi, a judicial system that only works for the rich, wage inequality, a selfish and delusional population oh, and covid.

  53. Scump is the perfect embodiment of the cancer that has ALWAYS existed at America's soul. As long as it allows black people to be second class citizens, rather than attempting to redress the consequences of centuries of injustice, America will always be sick. The fact that the oppressors are frequently employed by the police, who kill wit near impunity, is worse still.

  60. Ummm, correct me if I'm wrong, but every one of the Republicans connected with the Lincoln Project was completely silent during the 50 years when their party used the Southern Strategy to foment racial division. They were silent when voter ID laws were introduced to disempower black voters. They were silent when gerrymandering was used to ensure that black votes counted for less. Never forget, there's no such thing as a racially progressive Republican.

  62. Not noticed you making "Genocide in Yemen or Palestine" videos. Weird that.
    1
  63. @newman here The Lincoln Project is a group funded by Republicans who look the other way when kids die in Yemen using US munitions, who actively FUND the Israeli child killers, then stand there wringing their hands and pretendiing to care when Putin is doing the killing. Do you not see the massive hypocrisy?

  64. As though ANY modern Republican government ever gave a shit about the people. Tipped your hand here Lincoln Project.

  66. That was one of the worst Lincoln Project ads yet. The information was not clear, the scope of his infedility was not clear, and Pence's hypocrisy was not made obvious enough. Will go completely over the heads of the target demographic.

  69. Always thought the correspondents dinner was a terrible idea. The press are supposed to be independent of the government, not in bed with it.

  70.  @victorabrams637  No, I'm not. It's a sign that you're in the old boy's club. Moreover, I'm pretty certain that the one in 2016 when Obama ridiculed Trump, was the exact moment Trump decided to run for president.
    1
  71.  @victorabrams637  No, several famous journalists have declined to attend for PRECISELY the reason I ellucidated, but the trouble is, they've gotten used to cozying up to politicians rather than holding their feet to the fire. The epitome of access journalism. The fact that Trump; a known lunatic had such a hypocritically thin skin was both predictable and avoidable.

  73.  @bucstart  The Independent's journalists disagree with you "The only thing Washington loves more than dressing up for the White House Correspondents’ Dinner is talking about how much of an “abomination” that same dinner is. The event that is known, a little sickeningly, as “Nerd Prom” among insiders is an “incestuous” slobber-fest, these self-hating guests will tell you." Peggy Noonan of the Washington Post says "The dinner hurts America in two ways. The first and more obvious is that it is, functionally, elite journalists telling half of America: We hate you. It's as if they break out of their "This just in" face and say, "You know how you think we don't share your values and respect your views? You know how you think we're biased, self-infatuated twerps who think we're better than you? It's true! We do! Ha ha!" Mainstream media's disdain for half the country is not news to themthey know exactly what their betters think. But how does it make our country better to grind your heel into the wound? How does that enhance the position of the press? " Ari Shapiro speaks to James Warren of Vanity fair "SHAPIRO: Is there something wrong with in a very public setting dining out with people who are your sources? Does it cross a line that taking a source to dinner at a restaurant privately does not? WARREN: Yeah. I think this is so overt. And if you want to know why the press can consistently fail to fully understand the desires and needs of many Americans, as we proved in many of us missing the Trump phenomenon, go there tomorrow night and see how removed many - not all, but many - of the assembled are from I think a basic reflexive understanding of a world in which the riches and status found in that big ballroom really do constitute another universe." Buuut, I'm sure you know better.

  74.  @victorabrams637  You're a naive fool if you think this is just about a one day a year party for the rich and connected. This is about access journalism. This is about the elites power broking. This is about stroking the egos of the people that they hope will treat them favourably. This is journalists showing that they will not rock the boat too hard.

  75.  @victorabrams637  Yeah, slavery was a long tradition too. Is that seriously your best argument?

  81.  @ItsTheMastering  Easily said when you're not the ones dying every day, but when you've tried to do things peacefully for centuries, and you are still murdered daily, what recourse is left to you? To quote JFK, "Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will make violent revolution inevitable."

  82.  @ItsTheMastering  The ballot box huh? The same ballot box that's bought by corporations? The same ballot box that a 3 million majority does not sway? The same ballot box that a partisan supreme court robbed Gore from winning with against Bush? And even when the Dems do win, so what? Blacks were still getting murdered. Hell, there was black PRESIDENT and he did NOTHING to fix the injustice. Black people have been getting murdered for CENTURIES in America and your message to an 11% minoritty with a 40% racist block is VOTE, just as didn't work for your father or grandfathers? People only started paying attention when they started rioting.

  86. That was fucking lame. Gun toting politicians killing their way through the forest is a total turn off for many people. How about talking about his policies and achievements?

  87. What a load of crap. The United States is not on the front line. It has (rightly) not committed to a no fly zone. It has not sent troops. It has not committed US lives. Invoking faith and God in the face of actual tangible harm is as much use as invoking Tinker Bell. The fact is, a lunatic has invaded a nation that chose not to make the NATO friendships that would have protected it, but which now begs for the benefits of those friendships. And going toe to toe with Russia could potentially spark a nuclear third world war. Invoking your imaginary friend in a secular nation offers zero comfort.

  93. @Erin K Yes. Did you vote? Do you encourage your friends to vote? Allegedly, there are more of your kind than Scumpers, yet you all stayed home during the last election because Clinto didn't perfectly match your desires. People on the left with their goddamned purity tests. Apathy and laziness are just as serious issues as the outright scummery of your president. But if you genuinely did your part, I cannot even imagine how sickening it must be to live in such a repugnant nation as your democracy is stolen, and your collective reputation is ruined. But you've all allowed it to be stolen by corporate interests and corrupt politicians - and that's just on the Democratic side! If he gets in again, I strongly suggest moving to Mexico, or Canada, or New Zealand, or China.

  100.  @heyfunny3036  Why wouldn't any sane person be bitter that corporations are ruling America? That the best it can offer to counter the fascist criminal in the Whitehouse, is a nearly-80 year old man whose catch phrase is "If you don't like it, don't vote for me." A man who opposes healthcare as a human right, a man who opposed abortion until recently, a man who habitually lies about his fights for civil rights, and a man who the corporations feel safe with. The question is, why are you NOT upset by that choice?
    1
  101.  @hodaka1000  I'm afraid I agree with you, but Clinton demonstrated the danger of complacency in 2016. I WANT Biden to win, but it's like saying I'd sooner be kicked in the nuts rather than losing a leg.
