I find this hilarious. The strongest condemnation to date.
Asked about Ms May’s views on the comments, her official spokesman said: “The prime minister’s view is that the language used to refer to these women was completely unacceptable.”
The response is Ms May’s strongest criticism of the Republican to date.
There have been many key points throughout history where people had a chance to take a stand against a growing tide of ugliness and hate. Many conservatives, through their silence or support, are choosing which side they want to be on. And while I am sure a few years from now they will claim they never loved Trump or were somehow forced into the positions they found themselves, the rest of us will know better.
Thing is what Trump is doing is working; his approval rating has recently hit a new high; people are generally used to idea of him in WH, economy is doing well - so what if every few weeks there’s an ■■■■ storm because he tweeted something stupid ?
So Republicans pretty much learned to take it all in stride.
You are limiting yourself to Trump’s approval among Republicans I assume. He polls very high, but interestingly there’s been a15-20% turnover under Trump with R’s who dislike him becoming I’s and far-right I’s becoming R’s.
“I’m not making any excuses for him. It has to stop. I always feel like I’m not part of the ‘America First’ that he goes out and he talks about all the time,” Love said. “I’m an American. I’ve always been an American. I’ve been a Republican longer than he has, so, you know, I think that that’s the problem. Most people don’t see, don’t feel like they’re part of this America that he talks about.”
At least that’s something. Kudos to her. I’m going to praise anyone from the GOP who is willing to say the president is wrong to say what he’s saying.
