Here we have the king of libs himself admitting that his most erotic fantasy is to see democrats rally around a republican.
biden is to the right of reagan on most things, so they already have that.
I have long thought the funniest outcome would be Hillary getting the nod again and losing again
I cannot top Mr. Sorkin at comedy it seems, truly an accomplished writer. An inspired stroke of brilliance to suggest Mitt Romney of all people be the liberal nominee to lose to Trump, the irony of liberals having to rally behind the demon of yesteryear, only for it to be fruitless.
What do you mean he wrote serious dramas and not comedy?
😳
Democracy is when both parties are the GOP
They should actually throw a real curve ball, and prove that we’re not red states and blue states but the United States, by nominating Donald Trump Jr.
Donald Trump Jr. / Hunter Biden – the Sons Ticket!
Eric just quietly crying offstage
Isn’t Hunter Biden actually somewhat based politically?
You mean freebased, right?No lmao
Fair, so I, once again, got duped by the everpresent irony of it all
😤
The “West Wing” and “The Social Network” writer suffered a stroke “in the middle of the night” last year. “There was a minute when I was concerned that I was never going to be able to write again,” he said.
After noticing he “was crashing into walls and corners” at his home and spilling the orange juice he was carrying to his office, Sorkin, 61, called his doctor. “You’re supposed to be dead.” A month after the stroke, the writer was slurring his words, had difficulty typing.
Jesus, I’m gonna continue to stay away from the coke
Comrade stroke working hard yet again to deliver us the hottest takes
His previous work proves he didn’t need the stroke to come up with this take.
Nominate Mitt Romney
They’re taking the piss at this point, yeh?
Idk, been waiting for
.worldto suggest that if/when they accept Biden is done
After the assassination attempt on Mr. Trump last Saturday, rallygoers pointed at reporters and shouted, “You’re next!” and Republicans in Congress and on television were blaming Mr. Biden and D.E.I. for the shooting, so it doesn’t look as if that terrible moment will serve as the healing event we’ve all been waiting for. But Democrats nominating a Republican could be. And when it loses the popular vote for the eighth time in nine presidential elections, the Republican Party can then rebuild itself back into a useful force for democracy.
Idk why that would make them change anything, especially when in this scenario a republican won the presidential vote. Or is the joke the dems are already republicans…
Republicans, famous for giving two shits about the popular vote
Is it the hundreds of thousands of people who took the time to vote uncommitted to protest our complicity in genocide that we should try to win back?
No, it’s the Republicans we need to appeal to!
Surely Mr. Romney, who doesn’t have to be introduced to voters, would peel off enough Republican votes to win, probably by a lot.
Yes, Romney is famously super popular and beloved by all.
Does he want to aggressively raise the minimum wage, bolster public education, strengthen unions, expand transgender rights and enact progressive tax reform? Probably not.
Oh yeah, there’s definitely a chance he supports those things. You can definitely use the qualifier “probably” here.
Besides all the other things, isn’t Romney retiring from politics? The guy’s only a few years younger than Biden.
Romney is most known for losing to Obama, why would anyone think he’s a winner
biden finally managed to become president on the third try by standing in the shadow of obama. they still like hillary. they like losers.
expand transgender rights
binders full of trans men
double entendre referring to romney saying he was progressive and had “binders full of women” to consider for positions, this is satirically positing he tries to court ‘woke’ voters by having binders full of trans men, the double part being because trans men who either do not want top surgery or haven’t had it yet often wear binders
joke 2 being ‘expand’ is used in quoted text, and as a spoiler this section has to be expanded
joke 3 is by over explaining the jokes so detailed that they are no longer funny, but so detailed that it loops around and becomes funny again
joke 4 being that it didn’t actually become funny during joke 3 so this is an anti-joke
joke 5 being that the anti-joke is so bad, it has actually become funny by this point:::
Joke 6 is it wouldn’t be a quality hexbear comment if the reader didn’t have to scroll at least a little
Wonder if this is what AOC was talking about. and here I was dreading the democrats probably deciding it was Pelosi’s turn, holy smokes.
When I’m in a stupid idea competition and my opponent is the DNC
Truly a beautiful mind. It should be scooped from his skull and put in a jar to be studied
So here’s my pitch to the writers’ room: The Democratic Party should pick a Republican.
At their convention next month, the Democrats should nominate Mitt Romney.
This is how you simultaneously get Jill Stein and Cornel West over the federal matching fund threshold
My step mom suggested a Biden/Liz Cheney ticket. She’s a lifelong liberal.
The center keeps moving to the right to compete with fascists.
In a previous thread I almost posted the dems should run a Romney/Cheney ticket, but bailed on it cause it was too ridiculous.
In the studio straight up sorkin it
Comments are off which is a real shame.
When the Times has this level of ideological bullshit, they turn off the comments.
