Elephants are stereotypes as being patient and wise. How the fuck did the Republicans end up with it as their mascot? Their mascot should be a freshly kicked hive of hornets.
The elephant was sort of picked for them, it comes from a series of old (1890s I think? I’d have to go take them again) political cartoons depicting the party machine as an enormous animal that couldn’t be managed easily.
It was a little bit like how the Donkey became the symbol of the Democrats, from people calling Andrew Jackson a Jackass.
Patient for sure. They are in this position partly because of their aptitude for playing the long game.
Wise…idk. There’s definitely some incredibly intelligent people strategizing the party, but not in office. Those people may as well be paid actors.
Intelligent, at least, in understanding and exploiting social behaviors. You don’t have to be ethical or moralistic to be smart. Chaotic Evil wisdom. Hitler was like this. Voldermort level. Terrible, yes…but great.
It’s the party of con men, so of course they’d pick something that lies about their true nature in every possible way.
Poor thing was probably scared.
I’d be scared too seeing all those pedophiles and rapists and generally horrid people in one room.
They appear to have been using electric shocks to get the elephant to go where they wanted.
fuck these people
Paige exercizing her 1st amendment rights, freedom of speech and redress of grievances.
Give this elephant an award!
Literally turning a party convention into a circus? These writers suck.
Elect a clown, get a circus.
Be grateful if you have peanuts.
So close. Just turn 90⁰ to your left.
I find it funny the mascots of the parties. A Elephant if it could think of politics, I doubt Republicans would be who they’d vote for given a choice.
As well as the donkey. Even a jack ass can see only a dumbass would vote republicunt.
