      Speaking of weird, did anybody see the story about RFK Jnr. cutting off a whale's head and taking it home?

      I'm guessing he saw a placard saying 'Save the Whale' and just totally misunderstood the whole thing

      I was only joking

          You know, Weird As F should become a slogan.

          They need to lean into this as hard as Deplorable in 16.

          “Do you think having kids is good and can help make you a better person and leader? They think you’re weird. Do you believe as Martin Luther King Jr that a man or woman should be judged on the content of their character and not on their skin color, they think you are Weird as Fuck. If you think that parents are responsible for their children’s medical and physical health decisions and not the 4th grade social studies teacher, they think you are Weird as Fuck.

            They’re neither smart enough nor disciplined enough for that.

            Frum said it when the meme first stuck - the way you counter ‘weird’ is not by showing pictures of drag queens. It’s by talking about roads, jobs, etc.

            Only non-witches get due process.

                Regardless of whether the GOP has optimally responded to the "weird" rhetoric, it will not age well, and it will leave the left open to an easy slam dunk when they trot out their drag queens in public libraries talking to children sorts of things. The "weird" rhetoric also quite nicely allows subscribers to the dominant political leftist culture of the day to self-select as psychologically conservative, if not historically so.

                Education is extremely important.

                    That's all ya got?

                    Vance uses an internet meme heard round the world and you're making dumbass comments about the locker room?

                    Geez, it's gonna be fun if Trump wins this thing. After you come out of mourning, of course...

                          Sorry, don't see a bunch of controversy here.

                          Maybe y'all don't have families?

                          Yeah, I get what he’s saying. You need to get of the feminist soapbox and understand he’s advocating for strong families. That’s how it’s been done in our families. The alternative is an even larger nanny state.

                              Grandparents can and do babysit. I know we do. I know others on here do so, too.

                              I think Vance has established much of his immediate family was quite dysfunctional. That doesn't impact the norm.

                                  JD is basically saying he would commit treason, or something of that sort.

                                  ...Would not have certified the 2020 election results, "would've asked states to submit alternative slates of electors..."

                                  I feel like I'm taking crazy pills. How does this not piss of every red blooded republican/american?

                                      I can sympathize with being disgusted by this mealy mouthed nonsense from Vance. I would keep in mind that any such action on the part of Trump's people would have had no plausible path for a win, and would only have made it more and more clear to the sane among us that the results of the election were valid. I don't know why vance says "let the public have a debate". It would not have been decided by a public debate. All that stuff ends up at the supreme court, and then the sane among us realize that they would have decided the win for Biden, while the insane would be, in that case, on the left, and they would be both terrified and completely sure that SCOTUS would give the election to Trump.

                                        Vance has to say that to placate his boss. The man he described so unflatteringly a relatively short time ago.

                                          I would also note that the alternative electors were a contingency plan that always hinged on there being proof of fraud that held up in court. Without that proof, there is no plausible path for alternative electors to steal the presidency for Trump.
