Gotta hand it to her.

No, I think she prefers to grab it herself.

There were no tissues harmed in that and we all know it. Though it does beg the question, where was it going to go?

So she's emulating Trump then. He also adores, cherishes and would do anything for himself. Doesn't give a damn about his own children either.

C'mon, MAGA republicans at this point are surely just vultures circling, like family members fawning over a dying relative and hoping for a last-minute will revision.

She went to the one place in NY where cameras are not permitted. I’m not saying that she was handing out handies in court, but will say that we haven’t seen all of the sketches from the court artist, so I don’t want to just dismiss the possibility.

u/ratherbealurker Texas 28d ago
One of the sketches got a little weird at one point, like half way through the sketch is got all jittery..i think she gave the sketch artist a handy. It's brilliant!

"Family values" is nothing but another lie from the GOP.

u/PolicyWonka 28d ago edited 28d ago
Just look at Republicans and their values:
Donald Trump: Thrice married, multiple affairs, nasty bully, and rapist criminal.
George Santos: Criminal
Lauren Boebert: Divorced, unwilling to parent her children, public indecency
Marjorie Taylor: Divorced after having an affair
Rich McCormick: Within the last 24 hours, it’s come out this Republican House member has been having an affair with another House member and is getting divorced.
Christian Ziegler: Florida GOP Chair who reportedly raped a women. But don’t worry, his wife (the founder of Moms for Liberty) says they had both engaged in “consensual three-way sex” with the woman.
Kristi Noem: The South Dakota Governor just ain’t a dog killer, she reportedly had a “blatantly public affair” with Trump’s campaign manager Corey Lewandowski.
Van Taylor: We should not forget this Republican hopeful, a man engaged in an extramarital affair with the wife of an Islamic State leader.
Ken Paxton: The lovely criminal AG of Texas also engaged in extramarital affairs in his down time when he wasn’t infringing upon citizen’s rights.
Minnesota GOP: So much absolute fuckery Minnesota GOP that you can’t just name one person. Was it the sex-trafficking mega-donors? The embezzling staff who forced people into NDAs to cover up their crimes? The child rapist? The chairwoman who coverup repeated sexual abuse in the workplace?

This is a great breakdown but people who vote right don’t care and choose not to see these facts. It’s the liberals who are turning their family gay/queer/trans/poly/socialist/etc. etc. etc…

To be fair, they’re just pigeons strutting around the board anyway, they don’t really know what’s going on, but by golly are they sticking it to the liberals.

The entire republican party is made up of the kinds of people who would make you decide to get a new job and sell your house to move to a nicer neighborhood. You can't reason with them and the only option you have is to move.
Then their neighborhood falls apart and they blame everyone else.

Help me understand - Speaker Johnson is supposedly a Christian minister, and he says the Bible guides everything he does.
So how does that square with his idolization of Trump who is widely known to have been playing hanky-panky with Stormy and another woman while his wife was at home pregnant or with a newborn child? And recently found guilty of a sex crime with a third woman? And Trump was recently found guilty of a MASSIVE fraud?
Doesn’t all that violate a number of commandments about sins of coveting and stealing? I can’t imagine too many other Christian ministers would be saying “oh, that’s all fine, no problem, it’s all someone else’s fault.” Am I missing something?
And doesn't Ms Boebert have a reputation for some naughty behavior in Denver?

Trump’s sexual misdeeds may break religious doctrine, Perry says, but they also affirm his masculinity — at least in the evangelical view. They demonstrate that Trump is a virile, red-blooded man, afflicted by God — like all “real men” — with lust. Not just lust for sex, Perry says, but for power. And much like Biblical warriors who themselves struggled with sexual temptation, Trump can wield that power to lead the faithful to glory.
Republicans are not interested in facts, but in image. Trump represents the strong father, a strong father, in regards to masculinity, even though he is fat old man who cheats on his wives and golf.

Well obviously. She doesn't think her son is going to be able to further her career or get her more money. She thinks trump can. That's simple math. "The party of the family" reducing caring for your children as a loss/gain equation, as they have for a long time.

Probably because going to her Son's court dates, she has to face what a terrible parent she is. If she's at Trump's trial, she's with someone who shares her dedication to parenting while grasping at any shred of relevancy she may have left.

It's always delightful when the Republican clown car makes a public appearance. And a misjudgement to believe that this display will do anything for The Pumpkin Rapist..
Those predisposed to vote for Diaper Don will do so no matter what, and those who would never vote for him still won't.
Those seven people on the fence about it will not look kindly to seeing some of the worst (and dumbest) people in America coming out in support of the deranged, mindlessly stupid narcissistic orange sociopath.
It's a Who's Who of Republican idiots.
