I get the sentiment, but MAGA being furious at anything doesn’t mean much. They only have that one state.
The magnitude of their anger never changes, but it does change direction.
Haven't they hated him for months or years now anyway?
Yeah they also get furious at books and healthcare.
"Your Boos Mean Nothing, I've Seen What Makes You Cheer"
And Bud Light
They’re also mad at Froot Loops right now.
That’s a new one.
Oh it really is a new one.
Many former fans are toying with the idea of a boycott since word started circulating on social media about Kellogg's Froot Loops promoting a digital library "with equity, diversity and inclusion content" advertised on boxes of the cereal in Canada.
The digital library website, co-sponsored by Boys and Girls Clubs of Canada, allows limited access to all users who confirm they are at least 13 years old, and additional access with a code found inside the specially marked boxes of Froot Loops.
Thank you, Canada, aggravate away. Gonna go buy some to support the cause and see if I can get some repubs I know on the mailing list or something.
I was wondering why my neighbor was out in his front yard burning boxes of breakfast cereal. His wife was pissed too, she was carrying the AR-15.
It’s a hell of a time when you can’t be certain if this insane collection of words is sincere or not. All of it. It could go either way.
Literally can't tell if he's joking or not. Crazy times we live in.
Really? Why? Did they just now realize that's not how "fruit" is actually spelled?
I think it has something to do with making a online childrens library?
Those sick fucks
If you were worried about gay indoctrination then why did you feed your kids the rainbow cereal before?
They get really frustrated over this because they can’t call you gay as a retort
When they went after the OG neighbor Fred Rogers, they showed us who they fucking were, FUCK the GOP
And cartoons and movies. At this point aimless fury seems to be their default state.
So there are time when MAGA is NOT furious?
Sure. When a cop murders an unarmed black person. In the immediate aftermath of a school shooting. Any time a lgbtqia+ person commits suicide. Imagining an 11 year old being forced to carry a rapist's offspring to term. Burning books. Any time they see a confederate flag. Most time spent watching Jeff Dunham.
MAGA usually seem pretty happy when they are limiting or taking away the rights of women, people of color, or people that love someone besides the their opposite sex. Another time they are happy is when they are instilling their christian religious beliefs in law while at the same time repressing non-christian beliefs.
In Mitt Romney's defence, if I had to choose between four more years of Joe Biden and Donald Trump potentially forming the Fourth Reich, I'd choose Sleepy Joe any day of the week.
I don't like Biden but he needs our energy. The opposition is so much worse.
Almost like Romney is one of the few Republicans with some actual fucking integrity.
It's only a Reich if it's from Germany. Otherwise it's just sparkling dictatorship.
It's kind of funny how McCain and Romney were/are the voice of reason in the GOP. We didn't know how good we had it. Or rather how much worse it could get.
We took for granted basic decency and respect, and didn't think Republicans would just toss them out completely.
Romney is no saint. Just because he is being pragmatic now doesn't make me trust him.
I can say the same for Joe Biden though. I don't like his history or his politics but a vote not for him is a vote for Trump next November.
I hate this fucking reality.
This election is going to be one of the worst ones and that's saying something.
Guess it’s good he’s not running for office now or re-election later, so he can openly not give one rat’s ass about it.
Amongst the GOP, "many such cases"
MAGA furious in much the same way my 1 year old neice was furious that I wouldn't let her drink paint last weekend.
Quoting them directly, "Fuck your feelings."
They transformed him into a RINO lol
they always say stuff like this once they’re out, since they aren’t playing the game of willfully obtuse anymore.
Sounds like some people need to learn to lift themselves up by their own MAGAstraps
(To the tune of 'The Eensy Weensy Spider')
The melty little snowflakes went off the rails again,
"Why won't fuckin' Romney stay on the Trumpie Train?"
A zombie'd surely starve there, tryin' to find a brain,
As the melty little snowflakes go off the rails again.
"Anybody. I would be happy to support virtually any one of the Republicans, maybe not Vivek [Ramaswamy], but the others that are running would be acceptable to me. I would be happy to vote for them. I would be happy to vote for any of the Democrats too. I mean it would be an upgrade from, in my opinion, Donald Trump and perhaps also from Joe Biden," Romney said.
The senator added: "I like President Biden. I find him a very charming and engaging person, there's some places I agree with and most places I disagree with him. I think he made all sorts of terrible mistakes, but I would like to see someone else run."
Smart man. If I were a Republican, I’d probably say the same. He seems to see things right down the line. It’s a shame he didn’t manage to make it to become the 45th president; echoing his sentiment it, would have been a far greater alternative.
He's an actual traditional conservative, which isn't a republican anymore. But he has the freedom to say this because he's on his way out. If he was in the first half of his career, there's no way he'd be so up front.
That said, as someone who voted against him, it has been refreshing hearing him vocally go against Maga for years. But he has had the luxury because his seat in as head political Mormon in Mormon controlled State, and his status in the party as a former presidential nominee. He was never risking much besides being a target of MAGA domestic terrorism.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Senator Mitt Romney faced backlash online Saturday from supporters of Donald Trump's Make America Great Again (MAGA) movement after a resurfaced interview showed him saying he'd vote for Democrats in the 2024 presidential election.
Romney, a Utah Republican who has served in the Senate since 2019, announced in September he won't seek reelection in 2024, citing age as a contributing factor.
In late October, Trump denounced Romney as "a total loser" who allegedly "begged" to be appointed secretary of state in 2016.
However, Romney has since continued to become a prominent Trump critic and was the lone Republican senator who voted in 2020 to convict the former president after he was impeached for pressuring Ukraine to open an investigation into the Biden family.
The book features several moments of harsh Trump criticism from the Utah senator, including his description of the former president as "really not smart."
In previous response to a request for comment, Trump spokesperson Steven Cheung told Newsweek that Romney is "a certified loser who announced his retirement after everyone learned he was serving himself instead of his constituents.
