I'm suspicious this is really Bill Maher
It's from page 106 of "What This Comedian Said Will Shock You", Maher's 2024 book.
Sorry, but fuck Bill Maher. He's a fucking groomer.
(That article doesn't include the part where one of the little girls tells Maher that Sofia Vergara's character's husband is much older than her and he says to them, "nothing wrong with that.")
I've never heard the GoP called the "Daddy Party".
Who the fuck is calling them that?
Bill Maher, and the shitlibs agreeing with him that the Republicans used to be respectable.
To be fair, old school Republicans from 30-40 years ago would be losing their shit at how much the current party has been cozying up to Russia and the Saudi's which is where a very large chunk of the modern corruption comes from.
Except Dems have always been the party of fiscal responsibility too.
When conservatives say "fiscal responsibility" they mean cutting social spending so they can inflict as much harm on poor people as possible. If you look at everything they say through that lens, it all makes sense.
That's what's baffling, social services are fiscally conservative, taxing the richest in order to make sure the poorest have better living conditions is fiscally conservative, not spending public funds on companies worth billions is fiscally conservative... Fiscal conservatism is supposed to be spending public money wisely, well the most logical way to spend money for a government is by having a monopoly on certain things to make sure they're provided to the population without the goal of making profit from it!
The most fiscally responsible stance is to be against corruption. The corruption is the thing that causes money magically disappear.
There are bad apples in Democratic party (Kevin de Leon from LA for example. I hope he never gets beyond current position) and we should fight hard to kick them out, but right now GQP is in its own league in terms of corruption.
Maher is an outspoken supporter of the Palestinian genocide, so this post checks out.
Liberals really have abandoned all tether to reality, lmao.
