People are going to buy his shtick but I promise he is a wolf in sheep's clothing. He is to the left of Crockett. Progressive far-left

Our politicians are just tools of the parties. Use the tool then discard when not so useful. I would feel bad for Jasmine Crockett, almost, but that's the party she joined. Plus, she just has not earned much sympathy.

Dems already lost white men. Are they working on infuriating black women now too? They are going to run out of colors and genders soon.

They are currently hard at work coming down on the side of Muslims who want to ban dogs from America. The level of political incompetence on display is mind boggling.

All Dims are excrement.

And Cancelled Colbert has the world's most punchable face.

Scott's avatar

Yes, infinitely punchable. Ever since The Vacc-Scene skit he’s completely abandoned any residual attempt at comedy and gone over completely to a “smug at the camera until the audience leaves” model.

Always funny to hear Democrats claiming to "fight for free speech" when both California and Hawaii have passed laws banning the mocking of political candidates, and California and New York have passed laws recently requiring social media companies to block "hate speech." And let's not forget that Biden went all the way to the Supreme Court to defend his practice of flagging content on FB and Twitter for removal (which the Court shamefully upheld).

There are people who think candidates and stunts like this will lead Democrats to victory in the midterms. I am not one of those people.

at the end of the day it all comes down to the base and as we have seen many times in the past the base will go far left !

The party brass and the donors want talarico because they can sell him as a moderate , the bait and switch worked in VA so why not try it in TX ?

But the base wants crocket , first of because she is a true progressive and on top of it she is black and a woman making her the perfect DEI pick and DEI is embedded in their genes !

But either way it doesnt matter , talarico polls maybe 1point better than crocket against any given republican candidate

And the bus swerved cause even it didn't want to become tainted by running over this nutjob! lol

Jasmine, Cindy Sheehan, and Christine Blasey-Ford should have lunch soon.

Sounds like they caught themselves a case of white privilege.

NNTX's avatar

And, fwiw, Talarico raised a cool $2.5MM from this caper as he feigned “outrage” over Trump denying his appearance on Colbert’s show

These people are expert at raising $$ from their fake crises.

I for one am outraged that the dems just sidelined a sassy outspoken black woman for a boring white man!!!! I am outraged!!!! grrrrrrrrrrr!!!!!!!! Outraged I say!!!!!

This is legit the funniest timeline ever now. Literally you can't make this shit up.

These people are like one or two words from eating each others face off live on tiktok.

Just leave them alone, let nature work it's course.

praise kek and hail ameila.

Colbert is a real sleaze ball. CBS should just immediately cancel him now instead of March 23rd.

lothar baier's avatar

want to bet there are a bunch of Texas republican voters that are mischievous enough to vote in the democratic primary for crocket ??? :)

357spike's avatar

It's pretty standard practice here. I know a half dozen beside myself who will vote Jasmine in the primary. She's icing on the cake- my county is blue enough we almost always have to vote in the Dem primaries just to try to primary out the worst of the judge candidates.

Democrats: most authoritarian party ever. And always the pot calling the kettle black.

ALLYSONRT's avatar

They are truly evil

Mick's avatar

And then tossing the kettle aside after the kettle votes for them.

Somewhere Bernie is frowning and Hillary is grinning.
