Republicans took to the airwaves Sunday to criticize a surging Kamala Harris, calling the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee a “dangerous liberal” as US conservatives’ lines of attack on the vice-president began to solidify.
In appearances across CNN and Fox News, senior Republican figures Tom Cotton, Lindsey Graham and former presidential candidate Ron DeSantis each attempted to paint Harris – who is typically seen as a centrist Democrat – as having far-left politics.
Those remarks came after Trump sought to insult Harris at a rally on Friday night. The ex-president appeared to deliberately mispronounce Harris’s first name, claimed she is “the most incompetent, unpopular and far-left vice-president in American history” and stated: “She was a bum three weeks ago.”
Speaking to CNN’s State of the Union on Sunday, Cotton, the US senator from Arkansas, said: “For four years things were good” during Trump’s presidency. He argued that after Joe Biden took the White House in 2020 with Harris as his running mate, “everything has gone to hell”.
I wish the Democrats were half as liberal and as effective as the Republicans claim they are.
funny how the party that attempted to overthrow the government is calling anyone “dangerous”
hhaa right! theyre running a convicted felon and court validated sex offender, but no its the dems running a current vp thats the problem
But she’s a woman! And not white! That makes her dangerous!
Trump is scared shitless of her, isn’t he?
she’s a prosecutor. he’s a convicted felon. whatever they’re paying his diaper changers, it isn’t enough
If this was a season of The West Wing twenty years ago, people would think it was too unbelievable.
These people were so broken by a black man becoming president. They may just have the vapors so hard it’s like a jim jones convention across the country. We seriously need to invest in mental health in this country.
He’s scared, are as his aides and the GOP.
Well. Yes. And no.
That’s what diapers are for. So he still has his shit, but yes. He shits himself every time she gets mentioned around him.
Oh yeah, them depends be working overtime
She’s a radical leftist and a dangerous liberal? I’m beginning to think Republicans just use these terms without understanding them…
They don’t understand much besides following their orders from fox “news”.
They think they are the same thing
Democracy won’t survive a Trump presidency. The christofascist ideology may not survive a Harris presidency, or at least remain as strong as it is today. I wish everyone that wants to live under authoritarianism would just move somewhere else. There are a lot of choices to choose from.
This is an incredibly important and serious concept being shared by PenisDuckCuck9001, and I hope everyone read it carefully.
I read PenisDuckCuck9001’s comment, and who can really argue with what PenisDuckCuck9001 is saying?
Does Lemmy have a Rimjob Steve yet? Lmao
Someone needs to get on this asap
I feel like we should name it after the legendary @SatansMaggotyCumFart
i searched it up, we have c/rimjob_steve
Why is the Harris campaign not selling t-shirts that say “dangerous liberal”? Because I would buy five of them.
The Notorious KA.MA.LA.
I’d buy that and make them gifts for all my conservative family members.
She should use “Danger Zone” by Kenny Loggins in campaign videos moving forward.
Wouldn’t want people to start calling her a maverick. That doesn’t usually go well for candidates.
Goose then?
Not I’m Alright?
Trump is sort of like a way worse caricature of Judge Smails so it would make sense.
Edit: It certainly wouldn’t be “Nobody’s Fool”, the theme from Caddydhack II.
¿Por qué no los dos?
Does snearing the word, “liberal”, have any effect on anyone who isn’t a magaloon?
Yeah tbh some instances come to mind
So that’s it? That’s the solidifying attack? She’s dangerous? Liberal? Jesus they’re screwed
Don’t count your chickens before you’ve…
Watched all of that guy that went to interview at the Trump rallies
Who?
The usual stale bullshit from the GOP, I see. They’re scared because they have nothing and expected an easy win with Biden.
I’m actually proud of them for at least putting in the effort to get farther than “black and woman”
Just give them time. They’ll come up with some new racist dog whistles.
Just you wait until those lines are fully solidified, good sir
“I want you to use my words against me. If there’s a Republican president in 2016 and a vacancy occurs in the last year of the first term, you can say Lindsey Graham said let’s let the next president, whoever it might be, make that nomination.”
Is the only response Graham gets for the rest of his life
Oh no, I’m devastated
although shes not really liberal. Maybe when compared to fascist.
Even through the flaws. There may be genuine reason to be hopeful and excited.
Love how they claim limiting price gouging would have caused shortages… Why? How? What an unsupported claim.
As are all of the GOP claims.
Next she will be “Far Left Radical” I’ll bet. The GOP is out of ideas and repeating themselves. 2016 was full of broken promises. This is a rerun of 2020 and they will lose
I’m willing to risk it.
She is very dangerous to you getting owned in the polls GOP.
I mean for him? He’s not exactly wrong. He’s facing a lot of felony charges, including some RICO.
Everything has gone to hell for him. As it should. The rest of us? If Barely scraping by is the definition of going to hell, a large amount of us (not me personally, but my generation) has been scraping by since… At least 2007.
