So the GOP is the party of morals and values huh?

They might want to seriously reconsider that motion if they continue to support the path that they're going on. Because with this group of winners at the helm, they are not in any way shape or form capable of calling themselves the party of morals and values. Let's go through the list.

Like there's former GOP Speaker Of The House Newt Gingrich, a guy who served his third wife divorce papers while he was cheating on her, when she was in the hospital recovering from cancer. There's a fine, upstanding citizen for you!

Then there's Rush Limbaugh, who got caught smuggling Viagra on a private jet to the Carribean with his rich buddies, who popped pills, smoked cigars, and repeatedly cheated on his wives.

Or how about 7 time DUI champion Matt Gaetz? Who is one of the biggest cheerleaders for this administration. Parents, is this the kind of morals and values that you want to teach your children?

Or how about Ohio representative Jim Jordan - a guy who actively covered up sexual abuses in one of the biggest collegiate sports programs in the United States to help his reelection?

Or how about Florida governor Ron DeSantis who actively covered up the fact that he was a moderator of a member-exclusive racist Facebook group?

And then there's former Mississippi judge Roy Moore. A guy who lost the bench after refusing removal of a Ten Commandments monument, and then was later revealed to be a sex offender who stalked high school cheerleaders and was barred from football games because of his obscene behavior?

Want more? How about former Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio who tortured and humiliated inmates forcing them to endure extremely childish levels of humiliation and made them live in less than ideal conditions?

How about SCOTUS justice Brett Kavanuagh? A guy who got so blackout drunk that he couldn't remember most of his high school and college years and couldn't remember how many girls he allegedly assaulted?

Which brings me to Donald J. Trump. An abusive, egomaniacal wannabe dictator. A guy who fires people like it's a bodily function. A guy who couldn't take a joke to the point where he sued the comedian who told it for an ungodly sum of money. A guy who wandered into dressing rooms with naked teenagers because it made him feel powerful. A guy who was caught on tape saying that he could sexually harass women because he could. A guy who locks innocent children in cages and separates them from their parents. A guy who had sex with a porn star while his newlywed third wife just gave birth to his fifth child. A guy who spent the weekend golfing while high school students were being shot at, and yet constantly claims that your second amendment rights that are really what is under attack.

I could do this all night. So GOP, keep supporting people like this. Because if that's the kind of morals and values you want to set, then you should just stop, because you really have no morals. You should just stop. Either you stand with the party of morals and values or you don't. Put up or shut up.

law and order now. While you support a corrupt and morally bankrupt shell of a man.
WE are the party of family values...you all voted for a sexual assaulting pussy grabber
WE are the party of ideas while you suffer from intellectual rot.
We are the party supporting healthcare while yours is going to court to destroy it.

They got nothing....but the pukes in my life know if they open the door for me I'm going to blow it the fuck open.

At his age, 1 is barely acceptable, but SEVEN????? That wouldn’t even be cool in the 60’s and 70’s. What is wrong with him? And worse Florida voters in his district.

They don't even pretend it does. Family Values, Law and Order, the Budget - it means nothing. They still, however, pretend they love the military.

Simply hide behind the "magic shield" of religious pretense. Oldest trick in the book: commit crimes and sins all week and just make sure you show up in church on Sunday so everybody can see you're a God-fearing holy disciple.

Dump actually accused Romney and Pelosi of being religious fakes--projecting again.

Lawrence went into that tonight, how Dump is the most irreligious pResident ever who is incapable of feeling love or other human emotions. Somebody should tell his cult of greedy zombies.

good christians. Christian posers don't care or feel bad, they mostly feel bored. 45? he feels nothing, as Lawrence said.

Betrayers of religion and countries go into Dante's 9th Circle of Hell.

I'm not so sure Jesus would even weep over this poser.

But Mother Pelosi did.
