Oh geez, I guess I missed that.

I went back and re-read that thread. There was some confusion about whether DePape or Pelosi introduced the hammer into the equation, some stuff about MTG being tasteless and booing Pelosi, and this comment about Elon Musk:

Nothing about them being gay lovers or false flag operations or it being related to a drug deal. Was that stuff in a different thread?

I will admit I skimmed it the second time so maybe I missed it???

It’s the bar thing. I didn’t really dig deep into it and I don’t read Twitter, but I gathered that Elon was retweeting some nonsense about pelosi and depape meeting at a gay bar and having some unspecified conflict. Not really worth anyone’s time imo. Just another data point to reinforce my belief that there is simply no bottom to the depravity of the worst actors on the right. It irks me when people give these deplorables the benefit of the doubt when they prove over and over that they have forfeited that discretion.

Ah, I did not get

But again … I’m not on Twitter unless someone here links to it. :woman_shrugging:

Anyway, thanks for the clarification.

This was in the “Republicans say…” thread

Oh yeah, that was appalling, but not a conspiracy theory. I do remember that.

Here is a nyt article:

Just let it be.
Some people are just unapologetically proud of their ignorance.

Trump was not a Republican.

Sanders was not a Democrat.

Neither one is a credit to the party that “drafted” them. :judge:

Was either one “drafted” though?

It seems to me like the Republican Party leadership did not want Trump in 2016, nor did the Democratic Party leadership want Bernie Sanders. I think they preferred Bush or Rubio in the case of the GOP and Clinton in the case of the Dems.

Hopefully not for long, but the Republican Party will remain tainted by him for a long time v

Trump? That guy’s a douch.

That’s kind of mean-spirited, insulting douches that way.

They probably will still net a profit from it.
