Summary
Jon Stewart slammed Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer for supporting a GOP funding bill after initially opposing it.
On The Daily Show, Stewart mocked Schumer for surrendering leverage without gaining anything in return, joking that he “got some cheese.”
He criticized Schumer’s strategy of waiting for Trump’s popularity to drop, calling it delusional.
Stewart argued Democrats avoid proposing real alternatives by pretending Republicans will compromise. He warned their approval rating is dangerously low, making their approach politically ineffective and out of touch.
Can we start using “Vichy” to describe any Democrats who collaborate with the fascists?
im okay just calling it the vichy party now.
I don’t believe it applies to the entire party. There were Democrats (mostly in the House) who are actually opposing the fascists. The problem is that none of them are in leadership and the Vichy leadership is actively fighting the few Democrats who are trying to oppose the fascists rather than fighting the fascists.
and there were people in vichy france who opposed the nazis. there were people in germany, even!
they’re rare. the democratic party’s mouth is closed around fascist cock.
“Quisling” is another good one
I feel like neither of these are good. Like if I called you a troglodyte. Do you really care. It almost makes me look dumber for not having the social awareness to make a decent burn. Remember you’re trying to find something that makes them mad, not something that lubes up the dicks of the lefty beside you. Both is preferred but at a minimum you need something that actually gets their attention. Anything that anyone needs context or prior information is not good. Look at every single one the republicans used. Everybody understood it immediately. Some were legit catchy like Reeeeeeeeeeeeee super effective.
Calling anyone a Rosenstrasse or Reichsdeutsch is just head up our own asses level of stupidity. It lacks any kind of punch. Avoid 10 cent words. Use stuff that a grade 3 student would understand.
I second this.
