Governor GOES OFF on leaked texts of GOP officials

question. Uh, Politico reported on a group chat of a bunch of young Republicans. Uh, I’m wondering your thoughts on that and and does this reflect, you know, is it just some bad uh, you know, apples in this chat or do you think that there’s a toxicity around the entire party? Some bad apples. These are the future of the Republican party. Uh this was so vile. It is hard to find the words to put into context that these are people who are part of a political party, one of two major political parties, and they believe in gas chambers and rape and discrimination based on the color of people’s skins. These are racist, sexist, disgusting remarks. And I would say this, we have a leader from the Republican party in this state, the highest ranking individual, who in the backdrop of all this calls our candidate for mayor, one of our candidates for mayor, a jihadist and a terrorist, and then somehow says, “Oh, what they said these young Republicans was was wrong.” Like look at what you say yourself. Look at your inflammatory words and maybe they have an effect on these young people, many of whom you support and have supported you.

  4. I grew up hearing these people, so I damn well know what I'm talking about. This is the way most of them talk when they don't believe anyone's listening.

  5. This is because people stopped getting the crap kicked out of them for this nonsense. If I had said half of the stuff they texted my grandfather would have taken me down to the basement shown me the collection of medals he took from dead German soldiers in WW2 and then beat me to within an inch of my life.

  7. There is a huge moral gap between Democrats and Republicans these days. Morality is based on survival actions. Immorality is harmful to the group as a whole far beyond policy…

  20. And the more we have people saying this, it stokes them to go even further and say even worse. They get off on it. They want this kind of reaction. They think it's funny. And a LOT of Americans agree.

  22. Well you CURRENTLY support war criminal, genocidal maniac Netanyahu and you have a rapist as President what did think was going to happen?
