From NBC News, January 13, 2023:
One more thing for Democrats to fix: the Republican Party
At some point, Republicans will be in charge. That is why we must do everything we can to ensure a more moderate, saner version of the GOP is in place when that happens.
By Neal Urwitz
Remember kids, not a single Republican anywhere -- from the gas-sippin', mouth-breathin', Confederate-flag flyin' double-wide denizens of Sisterfuck Arkansas, to Republican congressmen and senators, to the decrepit orange traitor and pedo-protector in the White House -- none of them have any agency at all.
Not a one of them has the capacity to control their actions or behave like civilized humans.
Therefor it will always fall to Democrats to be responsible for everything.
By this same clown after Trump won in 2024.
How Dems Fight Back: Treat Trump Like a Potty-Training Toddler
Children respond best to praise and rewards. The Resistance should adopt the same strategy with the president-elect.
My wife and I have spent the last week potty training our son. Anyone who has been through this knows what’s involved: reading and rereading “Elmo Learns to Use the Potty,” effusive praise for successful trips to the toilet and lots of M&Ms as a reward.
As every parent knows, the most effective strategy to train a toddler is to cajole them to do the right thing and heap on the praise; it’s prettied-up manipulation.
We need to praise him effusively every time he even approximates doing the right thing. We need to laud him for every mainstream, reasonably competent appointment he makes, for every bipartisan bill he supports, and for any time he refrains from outrageous or unlawful actions and negotiates with Congress instead...
The goal for Democrats should be to prevent worst-case scenarios by coaxing Trump to behave like an adult. If we are not disciplined enough to lead with praise for good behavior, we risk accelerating his democratic backsliding, his most draconian policies and the irreparable damage he could do to our economy and our society.
Have I mentioned that, apparently, not a single Republican anywhere -- from the gas-sippin', mouth-breathin', Confederate-flag flyin' double-wide denizens of Sisterfuck Arkansas, to Republican congressmen and senators, to the decrepit orange traitor and pedo-protector in the White House -- is capable of controlling their moral or constitutional bowels?
That uncontrollably shitting out lies and treason and ludicrous conspiracy theories and outright fascism is just who they are, and it is unreasonable to expect them to behave like civilized humans?
That it therefor follows that Democrats are to not only to be held responsible for everything every Democrat says and does (even garbage that Fox News just makes up), but everything Republicans do as well?
Have I mentioned that? Because it feels like I might have mentioned that once or twice over the past 20 years.
