    Well, not that we needed one, but I really appreciate you giving us a reminder for why we should never ever make you president, Mittens. It’s very thoughtful of you.

      Don’t worry, at some point he’ll say one normal thing and people will remark on how he’s so reasonable compared to the others.

        It is true, though. If he were to run for president, he’d be the best candidate the Republican party has put forward in 2 decades. And he’s still a gigantic piece of shit.

              Flame wars must be, while we defend our lives against a butthole who would devour all; but I do not love the quip for its sharpness, nor the meme for its oddly specific irony, nor the troll for his lulz; I love only that which they defend

          There’s a Netflix documentary called “Mitt” that follows him and his family throughout his 2012 run. I took two things away:

          • It helped humanize Mitt a lot, such as loving a beat up, old pair of winter gloves
          • I’m glad he was never President, and should never be President

        He has a punch card that Moscow Mitch gave him. He gets to say 1 reasonable thing every 3 months and punch the card every time. Once the card is full he gets his Russian check for doing his duty to make the party look normal and reasonable without ever having to vote reasonably. If he actually votes reasonably he has to give the card back and can’t get his check.
