Thinking about US Rep Boebert (God help me). I'm old enough to remember when a Rep groping their date while the date fondles her during a show, then cursing a blue streak when she's kicked out of the theater, would result in the Rep eventually resigning in shame. Then again, we still have no idea who Rep George Santos really is, and a fmr. President who tried to overthrow an election is the likely nominee to run again, so the bar isn't just low, it's buried deep in the Earth's core.

@dancinyogi Republicans only care about one thing: having majorities

@dancinyogi The bar is in hell.

vijaro,

@dancinyogi the entire GOP is banking on Jerry Springer show and WWE theatrics to drive votes and sadly those have both been very popular with about half the people in the US.

@dancinyogi why do (some) people keep supporting them? Information vacuum ?

@dancinyogi Every day is a new low. Apparently, there is no bottom.

To misquote Robbie Burns, politics and sexploits have always "gang thegither". That Boebert will survive this is unlikely, not because of the shame but bc women in politics, or in general, are always held to a higher standard.

@dancinyogi None of this bothers Republicans. God is on their side.

Ken Paxton was just acquitted in Texas. It does not get any more shameless than this.

@dancinyogi They deeply internalize the lesson that no publicity is bad publicity.

@dancinyogi i worry about police immunity and political impunity ..a democracy has little hope of surviving either, let alone both

@dancinyogi Right? Who does this? Groping their date, vaping, swearing at the workers, just being obnoxious, all in a crowded theater. This is a "representative"? SMH.

@dancinyogi I don’t believe she has the capacity for shame. Her recent actions further prove this to me.

@SailorDisco @dancinyogi The needle on the insaneOmeter in the United States is almost ready to snap off. I don’t know what increments of measure they are currently using , all I know , AND CAN sense, is that the needle is bowed againsst the pin that marks the maximum amount of stupidity. This is what happens when education is not kept at its highest priority and false information and bold faced lies are allowed a SECOND of credibility and by the news media no less.
