Who would have guessed ten years ago that an entire prime time lineup for the 2020 DNC would include the architects of the Iraq War and a tribute to John McCain haha

Who would've guessed ten years ago that 99% of Republican elected officials would become Donald Trump's bitches?

I don’t understand. You’re apparently an R-MS Never Trumper who supported Bloomberg. I would have thought you would have applauded that ex-Bush/McCain supporters are endorsing Biden. Yet your criticisms sound indistinguishable from far leftist criticisms.

[John Dule]

Emotional garbage

But enough about Atlas Shrugged.

Not applicable.

C'mon. Can't Atlas' Chief Meme Officer come up with a cleverer retort?

Trying to be clever when engaging with people who enjoy political conventions is a waste of material.

Watch low-information centrists have a tantrum over... standard-issue DNC procedure.

You are on a site full to the brim with political junkies who enjoy obsessively analyzing political polls, trends, maps, and returns down to the county if not precinct level. And in a thread on said site discussing a live political convention. You have posted over 5000 times here. Yet you think you are somehow above those who enjoy watching these conventions?

He's made clear elsewhere that he's voting for Trump because he thinks Democrats have gone too far to the left, and that Biden is too "out there" to become President. So it shouldn't be a surprise that he has the opinions expressed here.

Just let us have a moment of celebratory, well-produced partisanship in peace.

Celebrating a COVID spike to own the libs.
You are a real charmer.

Pot meet kettle.  Celebrating COVID  to "own" Trump and the Republicans has been a hallmark of yours (and several other liberal posters) for months now.

Can you show me where exactly I celebrated COVID?
And if you don't then I expect an effing apology before you get the hell out of here and never return.

You've had no shortage of smug, celebratory one-liners:

In response to Rep. Gohmert testing positive:

Karma is a bitch.

When hospitals in South TX were dealing with a surge in cases:

Who had "Red State Death Panels" on their COVID bingo card?

Where is Sarah Palin when you need her?

On a day with a record # of new cases:

Has anyone congratulated Trump for yesterday's record?

And that's ignoring every self-satisfied post you've made (typically by only posting a Tweet) about a GOP congressperson, governor or state legislator testing positive for the virus (but never for the many Democrats who have, hmm...)

We all get that you're a partisan hack with tens of others ready to stand behind him, but maybe try to be a bit more self-aware?  Anyway, I had clicked to show your post just for a moment of brief entertainment but for the time being I'll be keeping you on ignore

Will someone please boot this brainless jackass from the forum, please? I think nothing of value would be lost.

Are you going to deny anything from Del Tachi's post about LL?

Calling someone a hack isn’t a substantive argument.

Well LL asked "where did I say celebrate COVID "and Del Tachi responded with 3 quoted posts, Im certain its pretty easy to find a few more posts done by LL with similar tact.

But saying will someone please remove this brainless jackass is a substantive argument

Please take your argument somewhere else before you get the thread locked

Who would have guessed ten years ago that an entire prime time lineup for the 2020 DNC would include the architects of the Iraq War and a tribute to John McCain haha

The Iraq War ended nearly a decade ago and has stopped being a relevant political issue. This is like suggesting having pro-Vietnam War people at a 1980s DNC is some big "gotcha."

Democrats have always liked John McCain when he wasn't in a general election against a Democrat. They liked him attacking George W. Bush in the 2000 primaries; Kerry considered him as a running mate at one point to troll the GOP; they liked him sticking it to evangelicals like Huckabee in 2008; and they liked him destroying Republicans' pitiful attempt to repeal the ACA in 2017.

Your comment that the Iraq War is irrelevent is sickening and an unmitigated insult to the civilians who lost their lives in a totally unncessary war based on the lies Powell held steadfast to. Demonstrating a sane foreign policy is critical if the Democrats are trying to show their moral superiority to the lunatic GOP. This did the exact opposite, and that does not bode well for Biden's approach in the Middle East.

[Anti Democrat Democrat Club]

This is the greatest defecation into the thread since...

Oh. Right.

I wonder whether he'll run in MA or NY.

The Iraq war was an absolute disaster. That is a near-absolute consensus, and it should not have happened. At the same time, what is there to be gained by not welcoming its proponents into the tent? How are the Democrats better off in any way with a smaller coalition? The more the merrier.

If his reason for running for office isn't solely dependent on his grandfather's name, then I'm all for his future political career.

Because tightening their coalition worked terribly for the Republicans, yeah?
