  1. No sympathy. You lie with dogs you’ll get up with fleas.

  2. “Infidelity does not consist in believing, or in disbelieving; it consists in professing to believe what he does not believe. It is impossible to calculate the moral mischief, if I may so express it, that mental lying has produced in society. When a man has so far corrupted and prostituted the chastity of his mind, as to subscribe his professional belief to things he does not believe, he has prepared himself for the commission of every other crime.”

    – Thomas Paine, The Age of Reason

  3. Typical Republican mantra: ***”Do as I say, not as I do”***.

  4. It’s amazing what lust for power will do.

    I’d like to believe they think they can get in by pretending and then change the GOP, remove the hate. But Faustian bargains never end well.

    I’ve read that Colin Powell thought he could change things from the inside… They changed him instead . It was very sad.

  5. I wonder if she looks at Kamala and sees that she could’ve made it if she had a spine

  6. She’s used to looking the other way. Does it regularly at home. Like when J D gets rowdy on the sofa.

    Sofa king weird.

  7. She knows theres’s a reasonably high chance Trump will die in the next couple of years, and she’ll become first lady.

  8. If there’s one thing I’ve learned from all this, it’s that there is no depth to which people will not stoop in order to satiate their own lust for wealth and power.

  9. How is she appalled by trump but married vance? Hypocrisy is like a requirement for Republicans.

  10. Her expressions during the RNC were amazing. The cameras cut to her a few times that last night during Kid Rock’s performance. She was not amused. Had a real ‘how did I get here?’ vibe.

  11. How do you look at yourself in the morning when you compromise your morals this flagrantly?

  12. They’ll trade their morals for power.

    Absolute power corrupts absolutely.

  13. When your “integrity” is as disposable as used toilet paper— you might be a Republican.

  14. It’s so interesting. Almost everyone hates him because of his behavior, words, and statements, but them some of them just flip and suddenly “love” him. I honestly don’t understand it.

  15. Of course. Her husband could be one Happy Meal away from being president.

  16. Yeah, so did Vance, haha. But, the kissed the ring.

    No sympathy for them if they suffer for it. They made the choice.

  17. Learn the fake smile, and the ability to lie and not care, just like your husband , and trump.

  18. When people ask “how did America get here?”, this is how. By accepting spineless cretins as legitimate actors in the political sphere. Lust for power is their only goal. And they don’t bother hiding it anymore. Showmanship,hyperbole, and cult of personality have replaced fortitude, conviction, and strength of character. The people need to reject it before anything will get better.

  19. She is willing to stomach him for money and power.. like how her husband is pretending to be straight to get the same money and power.

  20. If it were me, I would’ve just been content with being an Ivy League educated lawyer making the big bucks. I don’t really understand why people like that take the next step of selling their soul to the devil for more power. I guess they never had much of a conscience anyway so it wasn’t really a betrayal of any morals they held. 

  21. When I was a young girl growing up in a cult—yes, for real—there was a story called “the loaf of bread“.

    I don’t know where the story came from, but I have a feeling it came from the religious youth of the cult leader, so it’s probably a well-known Christian story.

    The idea is that a Christian woman was hungry and praying out loud in her yard for bread when she suddenly got hit on the head with a loaf of bread.

    What happened was her atheist neighbor who hates her praying threw bread over the fence at her to shut her up.

    The moral is “thank God for the bread, even if the devil had to bring it“.

    I think that’s what all of these Christians are doing with Trump. Well, some of them, at least. They’re using him as a way to get what they want out of America, to take us back to a time before certain rights. JD Vance and his wife are proponents of that crazy plan, and Trump gives them a way to do it. I think they just decided to support him because of that.

    What do you think?

  22. Indian ladies – your friends gossip to Dems the first chance they get. Haley’s oppo file is _thick_ and hasn’t really been used much yet.

  23. Her husband, JD Vance, said Trump was the American Hitler but is now Trump’s running mate. Republicans have no core principles other than the desire for power over others.

  24. Lmao her husband fucked a couch. What a fuckin’ loser. 🤣

  25. Perhaps my favorite speech in the past few years was when Nikki Haley said America is not a racist country, then like a few sentences later detailed how her family faced it at times when she was growing up. Any person of color who denies the racist element of the Republican Party are as confusing to me as log cabin republicans

  26. Nah she’s working to elect her husband. I promise she and JD view being Trump’s VP as a great chance at being the president since his age and health are horrible.

  27. No conscience, no moral anchors, and no integrity. Just a lust for power and influence.

  28. I’m a woman so I’m not saying this from some misogynistic viewpoint. I am amazed how many give the wives a pass. Like they’re unwitting people who suddenly found themselves living with Hitler and oh my gosh, I had no idea he was like this? They are no better. Melania has enough wealth that she doesn’t have to stay. She partied around Epstein too. Wears “I really don’t care, do u?” while looking at toddlers in cages. Usha has money and education. She stands up at the convention while folks with signs saying “Send them back” and “mass deportations now” are in front of her and she shucks this shiite like she’s not a brown person, let alone a compassionate human being. These are craven power-hungry women who know exactly what they’re doing.

  29. Trump already got close to dying once, plus he’s a 78 year old with dementia.. Of course the Vances are working hard to reelect him. They’re next in line.
