If you find yourself agreeing with Dick Cheney on politics you might want to rethink your positions.

He doesn't like Trump because he's a destabilizing element. He agitates the masses against him and does stupid shit for no reason that makes allies and adversarie alike stop trusting the US. He's bad for business.

Harris will be good for the empire. That's it.

If Dick Cheney told you he thought wearing a seatbelt was a good idea, you'd argue against him because clearly an idea is bad if a bad person has it.

Evaluate an argument on its merits, regardless of who endorses it.

While true, that commenter is a very well known bad actor and provocateur. I recommend against engaging.

Obviously he's not, like, a chaos demon. He presumably eats human food and all that.

But he's a monster and should be in prison, not giving endorsements. This is like being endorsed by Anders Brevik or some shit.

She should have rejected the endorsement. Instead she's embracing him. It's disgusting.

What if you find yourself agreeing with Repubs that you should vote for third parties over a Dem? Or is that different because saying so doesn't support the pro-MAGA campaigning you are here for?

This is really weird. You're happy for Trump to be elected because Cheney is so bad?!?

~~I will never be happy.~~

No that's not true. I'll be happy when the so-called state of Israel is defeated and pays for it's crimes.

And it will.

Not if Trump is elected, it won't!
