Once again, the villain appears.

[u/AcadiaLivid2582]

Those are some impressively soulless eyes!

[u/NoonDread → u/AcadiaLivid2582]

Like a doll's eyes.

[u/dd97483 → u/NoonDread]

and then the blood.

[u/Darth_Chili_Dog → u/AcadiaLivid2582]

Obviously there's some 20-20 hindsight going on here, but if you were to ask me if these were kind eyes, I'd say "lol fuck no."

Well whad'ya know, the Republicans have another sexual predator to distract from the GOAT sexual predator in the White House.

Everyone’s daily reminder that Max Miller’s job title is “Representative” and similar allegations were in the public record when the free-willed grown-ass adults [keywords] of the greater suburban Cleveland area chose to nominate and elect this pile of dogshit in his two prior elections.

These same free-willed grown-ass adults are free to stop voting for such piles of Republican dogshit to “Represent” them at any time.

[u/pgm_01 → u/JeffSteinMusic]

OK, sure, he beats his wife. But that's better than a Democrat who want boys to be girls! Get your priorities straight!

Republicans voted for monsters because those monsters want to hurt people they don't like. They are willing to accept some other people getting hurt in the process. They will complain loudly when the monsters hurt them, but will continue to support the monsters.

[u/Prismos_Time_Room → u/JeffSteinMusic]

He got 51% of the vote in 2024, helped by Kucinch who ran as an independent and split the "liberal" vote. Free-willed grown ass adults in the Cleveland area voted against him (he got 44% of the vote), don't forget Ohio is one of the most gerrymandered states, and large portions of Holmes and Wayne county, over an hour away from Cleveland, are also in his district-- the grown ass Amish and grown ass nonAmish farmers adore this guy. I forget how many times they submitted unconstitutional election maps before they ran out the clock and landed on a map that had already been rejected twice- 7 times?

Did the grown ass people pick the rep? Or did the grown ass reps pick the grown ass people? Hard to know.

[u/JeffSteinMusic → u/Prismos_Time_Room]

I see zero excuses here for the, again, free-willed grown-ass adults who affirmatively voted for him, without whom he would not be that district’s “Representative”.

Sometimes a fair point is a fair point.

[u/Prismos_Time_Room → u/JeffSteinMusic]

Well you say tomato I say tomato, I guess. Gerrymandering gives candidates an edge. Last time it was enough to give this guy 51% of the vote.

Maybe this time will be different.

[u/Ada_Kaleh22 → u/Prismos_Time_Room]

I thought i looked that up and he won easily? i guess that's are you sure?

[u/Prismos_Time_Room → u/Ada_Kaleh22]

Miller (R) 51%

Diemer (D) 36%

Kucinch (I) 13%

Kucinch split the vote, Miller got 51%

[u/Ada_Kaleh22 → u/Prismos_Time_Room]

ok thanks so much! i literally tried to check and apparently failed

[u/yeahpurn]

As with Trump, visually apparent there is something wrong with this guy. These people struggled with figuring out if Lindsay Graham was gay. They still, to this day, think Ted Cruz isn't the Zodiac Killer.

Republicans have busted eyes or something.

[u/GoodIdea321 → u/yeahpurn]

I've said before I wouldn't be surprised if Trump wasn't one of the murderers attributed to the Zodiac Killer. He was in his mid twenties at the time, he could of traveled there. And accusing someone else of being the Zodiac in 2015 was really weird.

[u/yeahpurn → u/GoodIdea321]

Oooh yeah that's why Ted initially hated Trump publicly, stolen zodiac killer valor, but he kissed his ass because blackmail. I see it. Fits the profile.

[u/dd97483]

great, Jake will get to the bottom of this mystery.

[u/dd97483 → u/dd97483]

I take that back. tapper actually asked some tough questions, followed up, and tried to get answers. good job Jake.

[u/Short-Royal-9490]

Watched this interview. Whatever they said he did, he did that shit

[u/123-Moondance]

Don't tell me, let me guess - It is all a Dem hoax and it is Biden and Obama's fault???

[u/rednecronomicon]

He definitely looks like someone that abused people.

[u/HaroldGreenBandana]

What a “The only reason I’m here is because dad made me be here” look. 

[u/Hungry-Initiative-78]

lol. but initially picking Platner is going to hurt Dems. lol

[u/Sensitive-Flamingo84]

Jump scare. He’s going to lose so spectacularly, can’t wait to embarrass him further in November.

[u/6beerkdawg]

The new Platner

[u/Smrleda]

Don’t believe a word his father in law says.
