Why should a senator answer for a president’s actions?

“Sen. Roger Marshall defends clip showing Hakeem Jeffries in a sombrero by comparing the president to a “little boy.””
Me, I kinda think we should have adults in the presidency.

Well now Gavin is going to have to post an AI video of Donald and Epstein talking about children… hate that we have to go this low but the only way for a MAGA brain to understand is by doing the same thing to them

After his “little boy playing with the media” comment, let me ask Sen. Marshall this:
Does your ass get jealous from the shit that comes out of your mouth?

As a Kansan, I’m disgusted at this spineless, feckless excuse for a man.
Also, I want my tax dollars to help people get access to healthcare.

So it’s OK for the President to make shit up to mock other politicians but when Kimmel tells the truth he gets yanked off the air. Kettle meet pot. Then for Senator Kentucky to down play it and say it acceptable behavior from the person who is supposedly in charge of our nation…..I call BULLSHIT

So the president is a little boy. Got it.

Senators used to stand for the best interests of their state. Senators used to challenge and argue with the president when he was unhinged. Senators used to have aspirations of their own that made them unable to tolerate incompetence.
Now they all just bend the knee.

He can say and do things like this and this is their typical response. Democrats go anywhere near it and they are labeled as trying to violently overthrow the government and labeled as terrorists.

“The Democrats have not proposed a serious…” Um, you lost me at ‘serious.’ Can’t believe anything you say when simultaneously defending this joker and accusing others of not being serious.

Super super dainty “push back” to cover up the true agenda of platforming people to sanewash this administration.

They need to pause the conversation until they acknowledge the question. They can’t keep getting away with these obvious selections and non-answers

These headlines are just hope p0rn.
She didn’t “confront “anyone. But she did calmly ask him to explain his view on the video .
The senator answered very briefly, and said that President Trump with the internet is like a kid playing with a flashlight. *So basically he said that Trump is annoying AF and like a child*.
He then proceeded to explain other stuff, but at least that very brief moment was an honest answer. And I was kind of surprised that he would go that far.
oregiel on
“I think what he was saying, is…” proceeds to make up a ton of coherent talking points that he absolutely was not saying. He posted a stupid video because the president is almost literally brain dead. he wasn’t “saying” any of that shit, he’s posting meme videos on the internet while in office.
I hope people realize just how embarrassing the current president is for our global image. In the span of a decade, even in spite of the four years we had Biden, we’ve become an international embarrassment among western nations. We’re bullies with bombs and we’ve got an elderly Joffrey Baratheon and all of his shitty friends at the helm. It’s going to take centuries for our country’s goodwill to recover from this, if we ever recover at all.

So basically Trump is allowed to make fun of people, but in the reverse we pressure the networks to put comedians out of work.
Honestly its not better nor glowing to compare the president to a 4yo playing with a flashligth…

I hope people remember that if he won’t condemn it, by default, he agrees with it.

Democrats will still screw this up somehow. I hate it here.

Did Trump specifically pass some executive order or law stating these fake AI videos were criminal? If chuck had any back bone he would just tweet an AI video of Trump flying around with Epstein and their underage girls.

I love explaining to my Maga family some terrible things a Democrat did. Get them really worked up, agree together that person should resign, and then admit it was actually Trump who said/did that thing. They have nothing to say, so they don’t like talking to me much.
