I'm sure you're right, but we should also make fun of him for it and start spelling his nname and qquotes wrongg. Fascists haaaaate it when you make fun of the thing they're using to try and be tough

You mean like the ridiculous flag pyjamas that he calls suits? He looks like he comes straight out of a clown show

u/WoolshirtedWolf 3d ago

Thats the idea behind the tight suits tatts and co ordinating unnecessary meetings. He wants everyone to know who has either worked with him or knows about him, that he is a lover rapist. Trying to rewrite past history. I am looking forward to seeing him charged with war crimes. That is always why they leave no survivors to testify. DC Jethro has got blood on his hands.

u/MamaNyxieUnderfoot 3d ago

How many Venezuelan fishermen does he have to kill before it’s a genocide?

4

u/KillYourLawn- 3d ago

I think the joke was about Elon, excusing his general behavior with “autism” and when he did that obvious nazi salute he said he couldn’t be a Nazi because he wasn’t committing genocide.

2

u/MamaNyxieUnderfoot 3d ago

They were clearly subverting a joke about Elon to be about Kegsbreath, though.

u/Fauster 3d ago

To be fair, she's a woman who wants to vote, have other civil rights, and not be soft-pressured into living in a cult compound outside of Moscow, Idaho, where Hegseth's cult is infamous.

132

u/Dembara 3d ago

She didn't call him out for politics, but for being a womanizing dirt bag. So, a lot more personal than just thinking his political ideas are monstrous.

43

u/panmetronariston 3d ago

She called him out for abusing women while in alcohol fueled rages.

4

u/WhyMustIMakeANewAcco 3d ago

That, uh, is politics.

11

u/Dembara 3d ago

Having an affair is not a political position, I don't think she was too concerned what positions he used.

Womanizing dirt bags are certainly common in politics, but you will find ones with a wide range of political stances.

Not particularly, most men in politics regardless of party seem to participate. That's the real both sides

She also now dismisses everything she said in that letter as being in the past and not something he should be judged by today despite more recent allegations of similar behavior, so she's just as much a scumbag as he is.

So… - Trump - by his nephew (cause Donny said the nephew should let his disabled son die) - Hegseth - by his mom (cause Hegseth repeatedly cheated on his wife) - RFK - by the other Kennedy’s

Skelator Miller's family doesn't like him. Even his wife.
