    Do you know the difference between a republican and a pedophile?

    Me neither.

      First, you forgot Mamdani. Second, I didn’t say politician, so con man isn’t tautology. Third, I think the flow works best with four options and keeping pedophile for last.

        Sure. And there’s something even better. At the risk of being tautological, not all politicians can be called statesmen. Henry Wallace, Bernie Sanders, Zohran Mamdani, THOSE are statesmen. Stateswomen? Seems more intuitive to call AOC a statesmen, as opposed to a stateswoman or statesperson,… if you think she deserves it.

    The sad thing is that, depending on whether you think Biden’s overt militarization of police makes him a Nazi/Fascist, this joke could apply to him equally. (And I, for one, am perfectly happy to give him proper credit as a fascist.)

    Remember all the creepy videos that had to be rationalized away?

    Don’t get me wrong, Donald’s an atrocity too, but there’s just way too much bipartisan crossover here.

      Considering Biden is neither a con man, a pedophile, nor the president (anymore), and you had to stretch definitions to make fascist fit when I specificly said Nazi, there really isn’t bipartisan crossover. To me, it sounds more like you saw criticism of Trump, and your natural instinct was to defend the man by deflecting to his opponents.

      A Trump defender on a first name basis… Do you want to be Trump’s friend? Cause it looks like you do.
