    Well… not a great point but at least a semi-valid point. It’s just so surprising since Loomer is one of the few people I’d count as stupider than Trump.

      And she says this - not because it’s wrong for a president to take gifts from a foreign power for any of a thousand different reasons that come to any normal, rational, reasonable person’s mind.

      No, none of that, it’s that the foreign power are “jihadists.” If not for that, they’d be in the clear.

      Look, most people are grey. There’s a slide bar on the dipshit meter. Loomer is very far on the side of dipshit, but there’s rarely a 100% with people on any sliding bar metric.

      It’s never all inclusive. Accepting that she’s correct on this point is fine. It doesn’t make her any more correct on other things she’s said. No shame.

      Her arguments have nothing to do with the right reasons, she’s just using that one trick she knows (racism) to support her view. Constitution? Bribery? Conflicts of interest? Nowhere to be found. She implies it could be ok from other nations

      Loomer isn’t the worst person.

      But she’s probably giving the worst person blowjobs.

      well I read her comment as: bribe is only bad if it comes from the middle east otherwise if it is Russia or something that is fine.

      I assume her Russian masters shook her leash a bit to make her protest the fact that Trump is shifting axis towards being another rich group’s bitch.

      Funding Mexican cartels to help smuggle jihadists across the border.

      I’m not sure what she thinks Jihad means, but it probably doesn’t mean what she thinks it does. Are the South American mothers and their children you are tracking down through the IRS because they pay taxes and are working for a living and trying to get their kids into school and put food on the table for them… Are those the Jihadists she speaks of?

      If she believes it to be struggling to get through life and acting in what they believe is the right thing to do, then she would be right.

      If she believes it is supposed to be a holy war or some shit, Hispanic families trying to feed their families is not a holy war.

      Either she is mistaken about what she is calling the struggles of these people, or she is admitting she is actively trying to deport families just trying to do the right things in life and get by.

    Why is no one talking about the big achievements of this administration? Since January 20, no one has been eating the dogs, eating the cats, eating the pets of the people that live in Ohio.

      They’ve definitely banged before, and she likes him more than he likes her. She is the only one who doesn’t know this.

          I assume it’s just the badly done cosmetics. Usually you associate that with someone trying to plaster over their age, it makes people seem older when they do that despite being young enough not to need to.

      Wow, I guess she can’t believe she blew a man who wants to accept bribes from foreign jihadists. Does he know there are tons of white people to take bribes from? That’s the issue, right?

    So the Shia Iranian government is helping Mexican cartels get Sunni Jihadists into America?

      I would love to hear the insulting memorial speech he gives her. Throw a few jokes in there, insult her family, laugh about how it’s good it wasn’t him. You know the norm.

      Well, when scruples superficially suggest a similar reaction as racist stereotypes, the racist stereotype can drag her to the right side of an issue.
