Cont: The thread for stupidity from GQP politicians who don't have their own thread Part II

Either way I'd be happy to see Musk say it to her face during a Kansas City game. I don't see Kelce as a violent person, but I'd love to watch Musk **** his pants when either of the Kelce's come around.

Sigh. Did Musk ever say he was going to rape or otherwise force sex on Swift? No. Therefore, there was no threat to sexually assault her. Gulliver Foyle was resorting to his habitual hyperbole and defending it just senseless.

i agree, as usual these types of conversations are a waste of my time.
 
There is a very definite meaning to the term " give someone a child".

Musk didn't ask Swift for consent.

This was creepy, inappropriate, misogynistic, threatening.

Language has meaning.

Add that to Musk's history of talking about women as breeding machines, and you have very much an insinuation of willingness to commit sexual assault.

My husband "gave" me a child. He didn't sexually assault me doing it.

I'll agree it was creepy, inappropriate, misogynistic but it wasn't 'threatening'.

I can't believe this silly defense of an even sillier claim is still going on. I'm out of it.

What if a complete stranger on the street offered to give you a child?
Not threatening at all?

If Musk has accosted Swift on the street and offered to give her a child, you might have a point; but he didn't, so you don't. Language does have meaning, but it requires context to be more than just words- taking a word out of one context and forcing it into another makes it mush ("if my aunt had balls...).

no, he did worse - he did it so publicly that no one can pretend it didn't happen.
 
Anyway ... technically Trump, but from his supporters.


"We need to do better with voters from Latin America."
"Maybe a sign translated into their language?"
"Good idea. What language do they speak in Latin America?"
"Isn't it obvious?"

As chuckle inducing it is, has it been verified - is this a fake?

Depends on how they did it.

Swift signed her endorsement "Childless cat lady". Musk thought he was being clever by offering to give her a child and protect her cats. Have you seen a single report anywhere in the media that supports that it was a sexual assault threat? If you have, provide it. If not, maybe step back and reassess your inference.
 
I've seen it posted on several places after an image search, but none has any source attached. I give it a 50-50 chance of being real.
 
The Arizona GOP decided to put up a billboard advertisement for Eat Less Kittens. It might work as a tweet or a meme, and I do love that the response is fainting couches for the media over such racism. But it's a waste of money from a state party that is nearly bankrupt, both financially and mentally.

What I love is that a state GOP organization has openly decided it's more important that a tactic "might work as a tweet or a meme" than that there's any actual truth in or evidence for it.

It's true when the "alternative facts" are taken into account. ;)

The Republican truth ship sailed a long time ago.
