Arguing debating pointing out facts matter little when dealing with a closed mind, a drunk or a three year old. Argue with a three year old about bedtime sometime. Probably will get further with a three year old.
It's a pattern with that guy. Post something like the original post then dispute our responses to it. Then he claims he's only bringing us something that's already "out there". It lets him get his denigrating and insulting rocks off. It's cheaper than therapy I guess. Three pages worth so far.

Yet stiil making the faithful followers fall inline. Pointing out will not change the GOP's closed minds. Already shown to be easily led or controlled.

They need to figure it out for themselves.

To everyone else's pain. Showing they care very little about anyone other then themselves.

New Jersey governor calls on Sen. Menendez, a fellow Democrat, to resign
https://www.cnn.com/2023/09/22/polit...dez/index.html

A Dem politician doing exactly the right thing. Something we NEVER see Repubes do. This is how it is supposed to work, Whell, but you lost all sense of propriety long ago, and of course, being so obviously a sociopath, you don't know what propriety means.

Since it is would be filled by a Democratic Gov sure thing.

I agree the right course is and should be for him to step down and if guilty be punished. Thou know if it were to be losing the Senate majority then.....

Sorry, but your whataboutism is a defense whether you'll admit it or not.

See your hypocrisy here?
No, but I see yours.

The exchange is indicative of a rhetorical strategy known as whataboutism, which occurs when officials implicated in wrongdoing whip out a counter-example of a similar abuse from the accusing country, with the goal of undermining the legitimacy of the criticism itself.

Red herring
A red herring is an attempt to shift focus from the debate at hand by introducing an irrelevant point.

Sorry but your integrity is like a fart in a windstorm. No lefty here is defending Menendez, by any criteria...and particularly any criteria out of a MAGA traitor like you. If Menendez committed a crime, let him be convicted and do his time and/or pay his fine. If Hunter Biden committed a crime, let him be convicted and do his time and/or pay his fine. IF DONALD TRUMP COMMITTED A CRIME, LET HIM BE CONVICTED AND DO HIS TIME.

The issue here is hypocrites like you...when did anybody ever see you suggest that you're fine with Donald Trump going to prison...or any other Republican criminal either. Or any comment from you about all the fucking convicted federal criminals who were pardoned by Donald Trump.

Fucking hypocrites like you are the real problem. American people like you are the problem. It's always on the people. We all expect politicians to be vote whores. Americans are getting exactly the government they deserve, and that includes lefties who are waffling about voting for Joe Biden. And that includes the ultra-lib politicians and ultra-lib voters. Piss and moan about Joe Biden, because the alternative is Freedom Caucus traitors who want to bring down this democracy, flawed though it may be, will be who we end up with.
