The Nationwide Republican Senatorial Committee recommended in a latest memo that its candidates assault Vice President Kamala Harris for, amongst different issues, being “bizarre.” Sadly for them, this requested the plain query: Who was weirder than Donald Trump, his new working mate JD Vance, or the Republican Social gathering?
Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz gained nationwide consideration after he went on MSNBC to laud Harris’ first marketing campaign speech, saying about Republicans, “These are bizarre individuals on the opposite aspect. They need to take books away. They need to be in your examination room. … These are bizarre concepts.”
Tagging the GOP and its insurance policies as “bizarre” has shortly taken off. When requested about Vance’s offensive remarks about “childless cat girls” working the Democratic Social gathering, even unbiased Sen. Joe Manchin needed to admit, “That actually is only a bizarre place to take. I’ve by no means heard that earlier than.”
Republicans are predictably aggrieved by the general public acknowledging how off-putting their habits is. Proper-wing wraith and Fox Information host Laura Ingraham spent a whole section of her present trying desperately to color Harris because the bizarre one. “Dems: The Actual A part of Bizarre,” learn the chyron beneath her rant.
Vivek Ramaswamy stomped his ft and referred to as the speaking level “dumb & juvenile,” solely to have Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez break down how “super weird” conservatives are today.
“Being obsessive about repressing girls is goofy,” the New York Democrat tweeted. “Making an attempt to observe what LGBTQ+ individuals do on a regular basis is irregular. Punishing individuals who don’t have organic offspring is creepy.”
Republican Sen. Marco Rubio weighed in on the matter Tuesday, saying, “They referred to as us bizarre so I’ll name them weirder. That’s what I used to do again in highschool.” His I-know-you-are-but-what-am-I protection is undercut by the truth that he and different conservatives spent hours whining about how a five-minute segment of a virtually four-hour Olympics opening ceremony ruined the complete Olympics for them.
It seems just like the Nationwide Republican Senatorial Committee is likely to be proper: Stating how “bizarre” your opponent is may certainly be a profitable message.
Let’s defeat the “weird” this fall. Donate to Kamala Harris now.
