Dear God in Heaven. It's not just the lying but the yelling, the screaming. It's so sickening. 😷 🤢🤮.

[sherinameless]

We childless cat ladies actually want everyone to be happy and healthy and prosperous. We think America should work for men, women, straight people, LGBT people, poor people, middle-class people, dog people, and cats. We would do much better at ruling the world than your current political class, and we have a lot more integrity and honesty than ol 'JD Vance. Vote Cat Lady 2024.

4 years ago we had a worldwide pandemic and the world was basically on lockdown/standing still. So if you say you were better of then, you are either lying or have a blurred memory.

[Richter]

"This constant lying is not aimed at making the people believe a lie, but at ensuring that no one believes anything anymore.
A people that can no longer distinguish between truth and lies cannot distinguish between right and wrong.
And such a people, deprived of the power to think and judge, is, without knowing and willing it, completely subjected to the rule
of lies. With such a people, you can do whatever you want."
- Hannah Arendt,
(14 October 1906 – 4 December 1975) was a German historian and philosopher.
The aim of totalitarian education has never been to instill convictions but to destroy the capacity to form any.
Arendt's extensive body of work includes many nuanced discussions on truth, lies, and the nature of totalitarianism, and this quote reflects themes from her writing on totalitarianism and the nature of truth.

People I love support Trump. I still love them, but I no longer trust their judgment or ask their advice. I refuse to talk politics with them. There is no point.

[AndrewJohnson-oyoj]

Why is Kimberly Guilfoyle even speaking? She is the girlfriend of the son of the nominee. Are they already treating him like a king that all those in his orbit are part of the court?

[KaritKtana]

Hearing JD Vance railing against _"Corporate Oligarchs"_, even for a second, when he owes his whole career to them is RIDICULOUS.
I pity anyone who falls for it.

[misterb]

This reminds me of Dubya all over again. People suddenly got selective amnesia the moment Obama took office and called him the worst president in history despite the maelstrom of calamity that was Dubya's time in office.

[poohhoney]

I was a federal employee under Trump... my retirement lost $50, 000 while he was president and I never got it back
Under Biden I didnt lose anything - Nuff said

[The-AMP]

Kimberly Guilfoyle had so much work done, she looks scarier every time I see her.

[Its_the_Whole_Everything]

Yes we are better off. My retirement took a dump 4 yrs. These last 4 years I gain high 6 figures. And, I am a Middle class, single women, and my VOTE does count!

[FluffyHarmlessKitten]

if anyone lies over 32, 000 times while doing any job, they should never be allowed to do that job again and should definitely be in jail.

[mrwarped]

Did Kimberly Guilfoyle fall into the same vat of chemicals as the Joker?

[kerryomalley]

It's unbelievable, my brother says constantly that his 401k has grown almost exponentially in the last 4 years and int he next breath says the economy is horrible and it's Biden's fault.

[nickfortes]

How does everyone presenting at the RNC look non-human?

[debbiestutzman]

What wrong with childless cat ladies? Are you jealous we have independence and can spend our money on our cats? Being childless does not equal loneliness or without companionship.

[EH]

Katie Britt scares me 😧
And Guilfoyle is completely unhinged! 😮

[bodhid]

Who wrote: "ketchup bottles lined up like guards at Buckingham Palace"? They deserve a gold star.

[edc]

I have never met a childless cat-lady who was miserable...

[ShmaylaRay]

So he's finally acknowledging the raw power we childless cat ladies have in this nation
