How embarrassing for Republicans, that their party is being gutted from the inside by a poor, orange, dementia-ridden blow-hard. He's stealing from their coffers to pay his debts and killing off the RNC to make room for the Trump Party.
Really wonder how centrist Republicans feel about it. Abject horror? Or do you guys support it?
Regan is literally called a RINO. This is the reality we are in. Regan is too far left for the modern republican party.
If any of those fucks actually read the bible they would be burning it.
There's a passage in the Bible where Jesus states exactly what the most important rule is, and why. Yet too many Christians argue with it because it's too easy (or too hard, for them) to follow.
36 “Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law?”
37 Jesus replied: “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’
38 This is the first and greatest commandment.
39 And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’
40 All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.”
Matthew22: 36-40
Don't forget about the giving your wealth away parts
21 Jesus answered, “If you want to be perfect, go, sell your possessions and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me.”
22 When the young man heard this, he went away sad, because he had great wealth.
It's easier for a camel to fit through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the Kingdom of Heaven was always one of my favorites.
When I was younger my fav was from John ... Those without sin cast the first stone.
Always has been.
Jesus might have been tolerated prior to Southern Strategy.
What happens if they ever figure out he’s a Jew?
If they find out most miracles were performed in Palestine, Syria and Lebanon? Ugly is going to be the ugliest we've seen, so far.
*Reagan
Eh. He isn't worth getting his name right.
I like to call him “that asshole who liked to watch the piss trickle down.”
I am a fan of 'the only man I laugh at when I think about him ending up with dementia'
His kid Ron was on Conan's podcast not long after Jan 6. They both make fun of his dad and it's hilarious. Ron even does impersonations of him.

There’s a second one coming right now, if he’s not there already
Right of Reagan except for some light union support.
Possibly even right of Reagan there.
I don't think that outweighs him firing the air traffic controllers for going on strike.
Reagan was the fucking worst asshead politician of my lifetime. Just god awful. And him firing the air traffic controllers was shitty. But that was on that shitty union. I'm saying that as a very pro-union person, who worked for a couple of decades for a union. That doesn't mean there aren't shitty unions out there.
I remember seeing something a few years back that said all of the American rich dudes wanted Reagan as POTUS because he was a great public figure head that could be manipulated with "bribes" and the simple act of rubbing elbows with them on occasion.
Essentially he was easily placated and a good soldier to do their bidding.
I know about this. He is the worst kind of person: he got his and then made it to away for the rest.
