And Cheney was a fucking monster so like that’s saying something.

[–] QuentinCallaghan@sopuli.xyz 37 points 2 months ago

That tells enough about the Republican party's current direction.

Heartbreaking: The Worst Person You Know Just Made A Great Point

Of course, he’s not a republican, he’s a conservative.

[–] heyoni@lemm.ee 26 points 2 months ago

Exactly, there’s such a difference now. Republicanism is no longer a set of values, it’s a cult. Nothing can undo the damage that’s been done.

You know what? I fuckin hate the guy, but in the context of “let’s stop the goddamn fascist kleptocrats”, I’ll take it.

That guy epitomizes everything that went wrong with Iraq and the Nixon administration. I wouldn't believe there's anything good about him until now.

[–] bradorsomething@ttrpg.network 13 points 2 months ago

This doesn’t make him good, it’s just the point that trump is a bridge too far for him.
