Cuban expats that are vehemently anti communist.

And who have apparently assimilated so well into US society that they have no idea what communism actually is anymore. A democrat vote is still miles away from anything even remotely resembling communism.

 

HARRISBURG, PA ― Undecided voter and self-described “non-partisan skeptical moderate” Deannah Sole has announced that, in the rapidly approaching election for tonight’s meal, which is locked in a dead heat between Italian and sushi, she intends to vote for whatever will leave everyone with an actual preference unhappy.

"If I lose to him [Biden], I don't know what I'm going to do. I will never speak to you again. You'll never see me again." - Donald Trump, September 20th 2020 at a rally in Fayetteville, North Carolina

Same empty threat as last time. If he loses and somehow doesn’t manage to get the Supreme Court to overturn the results, he’ll go right back to campaigning for 2028. He’s going to be running for president for the rest of his life.

Well, that's unsurprising. The default state for these MAGA chuds is "violent moron."

Yeah none of this is new. It’s the same playbook. It didn’t work last time but he’s gonna keep trying.

There's actually been research showing that CEO and other senior executive roles tend to attract a disproportionate amount of people with psychopathic tendencies when compared to the general population.

Here's an article about it.

Yep, that's him. The dude hates ugly people but apparently doesn't own a mirror. I make a point of not attacking people for their looks, because it can't be helped, and I'm not exactly Ryan Gosling over here lol... But when you make it the core of your business, then it's fair game. It's almost impressive that Mike Jeffries has managed to be uglier on the inside than he is on the outside.

Yeah, Netflix released a documentary a few years ago called "White Hot: The Rise & Fall of Abercrombie & Fitch" that partially addressed what a fucking sleazy guy Mike Jeffries is. While it didn't get into any claims related to this news, it definitely made it clear that he's an asshole and solely responsible for Abercrombie's pivot from being an outdoors oriented clothing brand to selling wildly unrealistic body standards to teenagers at malls in the 2000s. It's been awhile, but from what I recall, nobody interviewed in the documentary had anything nice to say about him.

And the irony is, Mike Jeffries looks like Gary Busey having a bad hair day, but he would've taken one look at me when I was 15 and been like "I don't want him wearing our clothes, he's too short and he's got acne. Gross." That's the kind of prick he is. He despises anyone that doesn't meet his standard of beauty and genuinely did not want "ugly" people wearing A&F.

So I can't say I'm all that surprised to learn he was doing much more horrific shit behind the scenes, too. And now with this news breaking, I'm just starting the count-down until he gets his own multi-part episode of Behind The Bastards.

Hard to say, he's been dead for 94 years, but... Maybe? 🤔

Moscow stands accused of launching a massive campaign of vote buying, funneling cash through its proxies into the accounts of ordinary voters, as well as using social media to sow fears about the prospect of EU membership leading to a direct conflict with Russia.

Watching Putin fail never gets old.

At first I found it baffling that the Trump Campaign would go along with Donald’s McStupid idea for a photo op because anyone not experiencing significant cognitive decline would be able to see that it’d put a lot of unwanted attention back on the fact that Donald Trump has never worked a day in his life. But after some thought, I suppose it did succeed in getting people to stop talking about his dementia induced DJ set for an afternoon.
