    Reading between the lines, it sounds like she may have been expecting a job offer that never came.

    Imagine being too unqualified for a kakistocracy.

      I mean, it’s true to an extent. I’m sure some people might read too much into it, but she threw out a bunch of significant criticisms of current policy which is super unlike her or almost anyone in her sycophantic party.

      Her positions more or less all suck, but the fact that she’s being so critical is…unexpected.

    “I represent the base and when I’m frustrated and upset over the direction of things, you better be clear, the base is not happy,” she wrote in a lengthy post on X.

    It’s because he made a deal with Ukraine instead of mining national parks and “on the verge of war” with Iran. Also she thinks Covid vaccines should be pulled. In other words, he’s not awful enough for her.

      I thought you were being hyperbolic, but no. She’s losing support and she thinks it’s because trump isn’t extreme enough.

          Why are you guys getting so personally triggered by a one-word comment? They said it’s performative. Yes, the liberals do it too. Is this a sports game? Are we keeping scores? Is your team winning?

            When Liberals do it they are met with joy and praise. If anyone makes it a team sport it is not us.

            Had folks gleefully quoting Kamala her performative speeches yesterday as an “argument”.

              That’s certainly what your propaganda would like you to think. In reality, most of us are sick of our elected politicians and the political theatre. We don’t worship politicians the way people on the right do.

                Liberals do worship their politicians to the level where there is NO accountability. They may whine about their actions, but will willingly, and without question, vote for their reelection.

                Liberals chided Trump for saying he could shoot someone on 5th avenue and not lose a single voter while voting for Biden after helping slaughter Palestinian children. Liberals overlook Obama denying due process to 75% of those he deported, while screaming that Trump is doing that.

                Edit, I guess mods around here are filtering words in posts?

                I included the word bi*tch and it auto edits to removed

                  Really? Where are all the signs, the flags, the people getting tattooed. People are calling Trump God my guy. If you look at the MAGA cult and say the other side is the same, turn you’re detached from reality my guy.

                  If that were true, Al Franken would still be a sitting Senator. We’d still have Rod Blagojevich, Anthony Weiner, and Bob Menendez.

    “I represent the base and when I’m frustrated and upset over the direction of things, you better be clear, the base is not happy,”

    Such a conceited statement. But probably accurate. They are all sharing like 3 braincells, her and her entire electorate.

      She is right about one thing. Trump plans on being president past January 2029, and if he manages it he won’t need to be on any ballot to do it…

    I don’t know why she’s upset. Trump has lied and taken every possible side on just about every issue. He has absolutely no consistency or credibility and everyone knows that, even if they may lie to themselves about it.

    Whatever Trump does is what you signed up for if you didn’t vote for Harris.

        “Trump is tanking the country but not hard enough, as you can see in the polls.” That’s not a direct quote obviously, but it’s the summation of MTG’s position.
