I know that Chuck here is over a thousand years old and barely knows where he is, but you’d think by now it would be obvious that they wouldn’t be a nominee unless they played into their orange overlord’s deranged fantasies.

I’m surprised he remembers 2020 at all given the man is 92 going on 93 years old.

Same reason Chuck Grassley caved in Trump’s first term.
Historical_Bend_2629 on
Kinda late to the party, Grassley. Pro tempore of the Senate. Ancient, out of touch, and willing to support overt corruption, authoritarianism, greed, and stupidity.

Half of our geriatric leaders don’t even understand what is happening, or how the world functions anymore.

This is maybe the worst thing about Republicans. They *know* full well that what they’re doing is wrong and that the administration and the president they fellate in public are completely full of shit, and yet they keep supporting them anyway.

Didn’t the vice President compare Trump to Hitler? And then they all got in line when told to.

Because it’s a fucking cult.

What is there not to understand? trump and his cult members are incapable of telling the truth. And you keep voting them into office. What does that say about you?
Kink_Panda on
Because they are all afraid of what they are prosecutable for and there is a chance MAGA’s are ruined if we stand up and march on Washington. They want a way out and chuck knows this, that “hot mic” sounds like it was on purpose.

> What would be wrong if they said Biden won?
Grassley spent weeks scolding Democrats for even asking this question. Then his own microphone catches him saying the quiet part out loud. The answer is nothing would be wrong, except these nominees are terrified of Trump.

Reminder: if there had been a slightly different incident at the White House correspondents dinner, this man would be president now.
Can we please start electing people who are younger than indoor plumbing?

Chuck’s a slow learner. Give him another 30 years in office and he’ll start figuring things out.

Why do you think, Chuck? Take a wild guess why the nominees won’t say the narcissist Trump *lost* 2020.

grassley literally called dems asking this question ‘political theater’ two weeks ago, then got caught on a hot mic asking the exact same thing himself. all 40 of trump’s judicial nominees refused to answer it these are people getting lifetime appointments to federal courts and they can’t say who won a certified election bc they’re scared of a truth social post”

Hey Chuck, you’re clearly out of touch. It’s a loyalty test. If they say it, he will withdraw the nomination or make their lives hell. Even if he doesn’t, his supporters will. The stochastic terrorism is coming from inside the house.

You’re 92 years old. What are you possibly trying to accomplish by being subservient to Trump? You’ve made your money and you can’t take it with you. You’re in office for another 2 years when you’ll be 94. Just speak your mind. You have nothing to lose

The answer is because then they won’t be nominees anymore because Trump lives in his own made up reality where he can never lose anything.

Why are people this old making decisions that the rest of us have to live with

Because that would mean that someone on the team wasn’t in lockstep with dear leader Chuck. We all know that can’t happen. NO INDEPENDENT THOUGHT ON TEAM TRUMP.
Now go be a good boy and get your rubber stamp lest you be primaried.

Valid question. I suspect it’s some sort of blood oath Trump requires and it’s not just limited to election denying.

Why is a 90 year old man in congress
BigMax on
It’s wild how little of the government likes Trump, and yet how powerful he really is.
You have the sane half (Democrats) who just openly dislike him, as they should.
For the other half? Sure, you have cultists in there, the Hegseths and others who worship Trump. But then you have all the others like Grassley (and so many others) who privately know he’s garbage, but are happy to bow down to him for their own advancement. “Hey, sure, he’s destroying the country, but… I still get my seat at the table!!!”
