    My favorite part of being a Midwest leftist is being able to tell dumbasses like Vance that I’ve never spent more than a week in California

      I need some Texas leftists with the same please. And some Don’t Mess with Texas on the side. And as a treat, a little bit of, “better shot than a Republican” at the range.

      So tired of crappy wimpy corporate Dems getting the primary win, then getting slaughtered in the general.

        Fun fact: “Don’t Mess With Texas” was originally an anti-littering slogan.

        It was since adopted as a way to deflect criticism of a state so bad that even its own flag rates it one star.

        I wish, but we’re way too far into the Post-Truth era for reality to matter. If one of their guys says Walz is a coastal elite, then he is one, despite being literally the most Midwestern man alive.

      I’ve lived on another continent for all of my life and I’ve been there for twice as long as that twice! You must be REALLY conservative! 😉😄
