    young Republicans were eager to start the post-Trump era

    No no no no no. You fuckers don’t get to just skip away from this mess and have a redo. You need to own this disaster and be pulled into all the legal ramifications for all the catastrophic damage you’ve facilitated.

    If they are still Republican, it’s the same shit. Sure, maybe the shine is off of Taco, personally, but if they are still Republicans, it’s the same shitty anti-American values at their core.

    Always has been.

    I’m gonna be honest here, it’s gonna take a lot for me to feel like Republicans deserve a second chance. Like, every registered Republican gets to pay reparations — for starters. And I don’t mean to me specifically, I actually just mean straight up reparations to black people. We can talk about reparations for everyone else in the world fucked over by them after they agree to that.

        That’s the thing, it doesn’t matter who I picked first — expecting Republicans to take responsibility for everything their kind has done is an impossibility. These people will never pay reparations willingly. It doesn’t matter if they’re to black people, gay people, trans people; these people will always try to get out of it despite having terrorized them for generations.

        Shit, just look at the Nazis. A Jew signed the Treaty of Versailles? Well it must be the Jews that are the reason why we’re suffering post WW1 — certainly not because of the consequences of our actions. These types of people are perpetually punching down.

          I definitely agree that a heavy handed approach is necessary. These people have routinely taken advantage of forgiveness. It would be stupid to try again.

        As I mention below, there’s a massive reckoning that will need to precede any second chance for conservatives. A price so steep that expecting it to be paid is functionally equivalent to believing Jesus will be reborn.

    Yeah.

    It’s about time for conservatives to move on to the next felon rapist pedophile racist scumbag dipshit.

    Anyone that thinks conservatives learn anything from their poor decisions is either pretty young or hasn’t been paying attention.

    The next bigot will capture their attention and they’ll choose to place their bigotry over their own welfare and the welfare of their nation…again.
