    “Of course my grandparents survived the Holocaust! My grandfather was one of the most decorated officers in the S… uh, next question?”

    Same old fascist playbook: Claim that you have unassailable evidence that you’re going to throw down “soon.”

    My girlfriend lives in Canada, you wouldn’t know her.

      That’s the same tactic of Christian Fundigelical Apologists, too. It’s no wonder they’re bedfellows.

    Well, not THEE Holocaust that everyone knows about. I’m talking about our own Holocaust, when we fled due to bedbugs…

    That guy baffles me every time I read of him. Is he made of dumb or does he think everybody else is?

    Nevermind. His voters don’t care, so the latter it seems to be. Or both.

      I love the one where he’s being interviewed and the question is about what you do for Thanksgiving or something, his opponent is like, “oh yeah just good times with the family, we always get Haagen Dazs ice cream for a special treat.” Then Santos is asked and he’s like, “oh yeah I love those good times with family and Haagen Dazs ice cream, such a special time every year.”

      Found the clip it’s amazing

      Clearly enough other people are or he wouldn’t be where he is.

      He saw how Trump conned his way to the office of the president of the us and he did the same to get into congress.
