she tried to get wrapping paper made, presumably to sell to raise campaign funds.
the wrapping paper and it had a pattern that alternated between a graphic that reads,

“No [picture of balls] in our stalls,” and her campaign logo.
“My team just informed me that no company would make this wrapping paper for us because it’s too ‘offensive,'” she wrote.

“What I find offensive is men in women’s bathrooms.”
“A sitting Congresswomen using a disgusting and bigoted slur about Americans who staged a nonviolent protest,” responded Rep. Maxwell Frost (D-FL). “People who use this type of despicable language should not be leading anyone.”
Gift wrapping paper with hate imprinted on it didn’t sell well. Figures.
I find transphobic representatives disturbing and vote we remove them from congress
No one is more obsessed with cocks and balls than a repulican legislator apparently
Genital Obsessed Party
Religious people but it’s more of a 1 circle Venn diagram
Why would anyone think this was a good idea?
Even hateful people aren’t looking to adorn gifts with messages of hate unrelated to the actual gift giving. So bizarre
Its awful, but my very good (trans) friend received a transphobic Xmas card from her father and stepmother.
Some people really are like that, apparently.
That same year, they also gifted some pickaninny art to their son’s new wife, a black woman.
Garbage, hateful people.
I just read the article and you’re so right.
Mace has been using transphobia to build her political career since before she was elected to Congress. In her first campaign for Congress, she made up a law that she claimed required “transgender equality in the military,” said that her Democratic opponent was responsible for it, and said that it would result in a Marine Corps base in her district getting shut down. It was all a lie – there was no such law and the Marine base is still in operation today – but it helped her secure her seat in Congress.
In her second run for Congress, she accused her opponent of providing “SEX CHANGE SURGERY. PUBERTY BLOCKERS. GENDER CHANGING HORMONES. FOR CHILDREN?” in an ad, even though her opponent was a doctor who worked at a hospital that didn’t provide gender-affirming care for trans people at all. Her opponent was forced to resign from her job.
The word rotted comes to mind.
I’m an atheist but rotted soul seems to fit here.
I wouldn’t be shocked to find out age made the design purposely against the printers terms so she could claim this was “wokeness” discriminating against her for her beliefs
She should reach to the bottom of a full sharps container to get the prize.
ETA: the
Why would anyone want to wrap their gifts with campaign logos?
“My hate is a
griftgift!”Even apart from the whole “descent into a Christo-fascist nightmare” thing, which some might argue is the real issue, I suppose, the post-Trump GOP is also going to be so incredibly cringe as a bunch of angry Poli-Sci nerds of varying personal commitment to their awful positions clumsily try to replicate Trump’s brand, which for all of its literal lying and ignorance, rings true to who he is as a person and genuinely taps into the ugly id of many people.
Also, unless I’m seriously overestimating the novelty wrapping paper industry’s commitment to inclusivity, I’m not buying that they couldn’t find anybody willing to make the wrapping paper. Almost guarantee the staffers reached out to a few campaign-merch middlemen who work with Republicans, got told no, and then gave up and told their asshole boss it couldn’t be done.
I am also confident that the underlings are giving this sort of thing the minimum effort. What’re the politicians gonna do, do it themselves? No way.
Nance Mace literally worships Satan. She is a very literal sense, a Devil Worshiper. If your religion leads you to hate, you are not worshiping, you are praying to the Devil. And after her time in this realm, she will fall, and spend all eternity with her master.
only Christians believe in Satan
I mean, if you have fully transitioned MtF, there wouldn’t be any balls in the stalls, so…
Right? This is what is also complete hypocrisy on Republicans part. On one hand, they (erroneously) equate trans with surgeries when they want to condemn youth healthcare. But somehow all adult trans people are no-surgery self-identifying “men in dresses”.
