on Sunday, Georgia Democratic Senator Jon Ossoff delivered a barn-burner of a speech, in which he ripped Preznit Fuckwit several new ones, for being the incompetent imbecile who lied our country into an unwinnable war against Iran, and for being the callous toad who is ignoring the plight of the five thousand sailors trapped aboard the USS Abraham Lincoln.

but all that was lost on the MAGAverse, because there were three words toward the end of Ossoff’s speech that caused every Republican to immediately shit a massive, white-hot brick and explode into paroxysms of performative outrage.

he wants to build his ballroom and travel with Natalie on their apparently defenseless flying palace gifted by the Emir of Qatar.”

that’s right, Jon Ossoff went there. he brought up the weird stalker-slash-diaper-nurse who is now Dear Leader’s constant companion.

once those three words — ‘travel with Natalie’ — escaped Ossoff’s lips, the entire Donnyverse clutched their pearls and collapsed onto their fainting couches.

oh my good, how dare Jon Ossoff say such a mean thing!

I’m looking straight at you, Tim Murtaugh.

oh dear, can someone get in here and see if they can revive Tim?

what on earth is Tim Murtaugh talking about? what ‘vulgar innuendo’? all Ossoff did was to accurately describe the situation. Diaper Nurse Natalie travels with Dear Leader. not a day goes by that the two of them aren’t photographed together. to point that out is not ‘innuendo.’

who even knew that Ari Fleischer was still a thing?

whoa, whoa, slow the fuck down there, Ari. show us on the doll where Ossoff accused Natalie of ‘behaving like that’.

like what?

it’s pretty weird how every Republican immediately interpreted ‘travel together’ to mean that Donny and Nattie are getting it on, isn’t it? this sounds like another one of those ‘every accusation is a confession’ things again, doesn’t it?

that’s because it is. Republicans have eyes. they can see what’s going on.

they know how bad this looks, President Pussygrabber swanning around with some blonde half his age, while his Slovenian green-card rent-a-wife is nowhere to be seen.

look, it’s not Jon Ossoff’s fault that Donny immediately falls for any woman who reminds him of the daughter he want to quote-unquote ‘date,’ if that’s what we’re charitably going to call it. this shit happens over and over. remember the Presidential Pants Steamer, Hope Hicks, who was right by his side throughout his first term?

You can tell he's actively shitting his pants in the thumbnail

This is still all part of the "what if we call him drumf" left who think words and reacts are important wins. In the past it's been called slacktivism, and isn't widely thought of as effective.

Certainly not as effective as treating the actual causes, which are primarily the under servicing and disillusionment of voters. A phenomena democrats have helped with over time.

It's only people like Mamdani, AOC, amd Bernie who have helped. There are ALOT of politicans and people in the "what if we call him drumf" for four years crowd.

A lot more than that has been needed and called for, for a lot longer.

There's two sides to this coin. Celebrity gossip media that amounts to "look at these gross freaks being absolutely abhorrent" is a great tool to just harsh people's vibes on a person or party and make them unpleasant to support.

So, if you're trying to run up an opponent's negatives, this is great. Anyone paying attention just gets to hear about an old pussy-hound getting daiped up by some insane Facebook lady, and they'll hate that.

On the other hand... there's absolutely no policy here. There's nothing to support as an alternative. You could just as easily run this line of attack on Biden or Schumer or Sanders, give or take.

So, if they run a gross old degenerate and you run a gross old degenerate, all this kind of media does is drive up disgust with politics.

BUT if you've got some kind of positive alternative? Then you can run on that (like Mamdani did against Cuomo, for instance) and leave the grossness of the opposition to speak for itself

Makes me wonder what the “Lewinsky Room” is actually for

Cigar smoking, mostly.
