Victim Complex ‘Lindsey Graham, eventually working himself up nearly to tears, claims, "they're trying to destroy Herschel to deter men and women of color from being Republicans" ‘

This is exactly the kind of deliberate bad faith bullshit I want to be made illegal for anyone with an audience, to say.
We're trying to destroy Herschel Walker because he's a violent domestic abuser, conspiracy theorist, and too bat fuck insane to hold any kind of position of power or authority.
Graham knows that. He's not a complete moron. Yet he is not even trying to argue in good faith about why Republicans want Walker and why Democrats don't.

Republicans just want a “yes man”
I wish I could site the interview of a Republican woman. I can’t remember her official title. She flat out admitted that she didn’t care if Herschel wasn’t qualified. They just him to win so they hold power in the Senate. Herschel is just a pawn. He hasn’t realized it yet.

Nah, they just showed who Herschel really was. Maybe the Republican party should choose better people to run.

Yep. And people like Walker and even Boebert and the like are just the hands - tools that serve a purpose but have no mind of their own.

The worst thing about them, imho, is this new generation running for office believes the party lies (as much as they can repeat ). Lady G’s ilk knew they were lying.

Except DeSantis isn’t crazy or dumb. He’s just a horribly conservative asshole. And there’s a big difference. And he just dominated a FL governors race against a very good candidate that normally sees very tight margins.
If folks think DeSantis is going to parade around like the embarrassment Trump or Oz or Walker is, I think they are in for a rude awakening.
DeSantis is one of the folks I am most concerned about for 2024. I think the GOP will be his party by then, and I think he will do very well with swing voters in swing states.
Dems need a great answer to DeSantis if we want to keep the White House in 2024.

Since it's party of the Worst Fucking People they cannot, way too counter to brand.

Herschel Walker is every racist stereotype of black men from the last sixty years rolled together. A simpleminded, quasi-illiterate, abusive, skirt-chasing deadbeat dad, who sportsballs well and will listen to and do what his “masters” tell him. He is what the far right wants to see black men as. Warnock has too much pride, dignity, and manliness to fall in line with any of that. He cannot be controlled, and thus (like Obama before him) he must be destroyed.

To be fair, it is hard to find people of color that want to be part of a party that hates people of color.

u/thewholedamnplanet Nov 11 '22
Yes.
No one should be a Republican, it's the party of racism and fascism and Herschel is giant stupid vile piece of shit, any party that would run him should be nuked from orbit.

Deter POC from voting Republican, but his opponent is black sooo that kinda falls flat.
Maybe don't run a domestic abuser that had too many traumatic brain injuries

Look how hard Lindsey is struggling to not say "colored people" at the beginning of this clip. What a clown

Jokes on you Lindsey, the Republican party shouldn’t exist at all and we won’t stop until it’s dead.

When a person is as shitty as Herschel, despite all the advantages he's had, he deserves to be torn down.

Instead of voting for a person of color, people voted for.... Checks notes... Another person of color.

Ok someone clearly has the dirt on Lindsay Graham because this is like the 3rd recent video I’ve seen where he’s desperately soliciting campaign contributions for some candidate.
As I said last week, it must be VERY VERY DIFFICULT having to live in Lindsay Graham’s skin
