Sorry about the picture.
So, I was trying to work, and … I just could not let this go without some sort of comment as to how it represents where we stand right now as a nation.
Yes, the National Republican Congressional Committee, IOW, an official arm of the Republican party, is selling T-shirts off of Trump’s most bundled “sales pitch” of all time, the one that embarrassed the entire nation, except – well, Republicans.
Meanwhile, the Nevada GOP is running FB ads urging Republicans to "show your support for making Greenland the 51st state" with another t-shirt pic.twitter.com/qNGPyHgYE0

I am having a hard time with the words needed to respond …
Break me a fucking give!
You would have an easier time embarrassing your couch than you would today’s Republican party. I guess they’re taking their cue from their leader. Never, ever, be embarrassed about anything. It is all “the greatest.”
Jesus, these people.

Peace, y’all

Has anyone thought how Vlad would benefit by the U.S. having Greenland? Ya think 45 has the brain cellular structure to think about buying Greenland? OMG. No. I didn’t think I’d been transported to an alternate universe, but hmmmmmmm.
What I’m hearing is that Tom Cotton, that hawkiest of hawks, gave him the idea and that they’d been talking about this in a serious manner among themselves for nearly a year or so. So I would not put it past their addled minds to consider taking Greenland by military force from Denmark, because what the hell is DENMARK going to do to stop the United States military?
Jesus Christ, I just scared the shit out of myself. Given Mike Pompeo’s bluster about taking on China militarily I can’t put this past these people. I think I need an Ativan.
Strange how they flaunt their ignorance as a virtue.
There’s just so much dumb here.
We have a party promoting the acquisition of a nation that says no, so this is advocating colonialism or imperialism.
We have a party that will promote even a terrible idea as “the best” just to antagonize the rest of the country, which isn’t a great thing.
We have a party that is willing to use an insult to an important NATO ally to make a few bucks…which is also not a great thing.
So much dumb…
Hmmm. A new island territory as part of the USA. How long till it became a state?
Just ask Puerto Rico how that ‘works out’.
