    I don’t think women in general love trump. I think that’s a difficult demo for him. Sure I can find a few at his events but the average woman really doesn’t like him. Does that mean he’s not masculine? They are just inventing little things to be on the surface of what is and isn’t masculine. Walz has the only core masculine traits I can think of. He loves and takes care of his family. Everything else is superfluous window dressing. These guys only care about dressing though.

      He does display more than those traditionally masculine traits. He portrays himself as a protector of the vulnerable and a provider. Making sure women and children are safe and provided for is very traditionally masculine. He has made it a point of his political career to help children, and as an ex-member of the national guard, he can claim that “protector” archetype.

      This is not to say that there aren’t problems with traditional masculinity, but there’s more to it than just family.

    Who the fuck doesn’t drink a milkshake with a straw?

    Are all these strawless non-gay heterosexual manly men walking around with milk mustaches like 5 year olds? Is this what women are into?

      No, these strawless, non-gay, heterosexual, manly men are just like me. They were handed a spoon, but not a straw in the drive through and they decided to just drive off rather than bother or inconvenience someone, even though it wouldn’t be a bother or inconvenience, it’s the person’s job, and they’d be happy to help. I am married though, so while I wouldn’t say my wife is specifically attracted to that brand of social awkwardness, she’s not entirely repulsed by it.

    They know they are full of shit. The know they are lying.

    They are just evil cunts that spread hate and lies to manipulate people.

    I’ve said it before. There are only 2 types of right wingers. They are either stupid or evil. Sometimes both. But it’s always at least one of the 2.

      I know some intelligent Trumpets, and the mental gymnastics they make is a Simone Biles level event.

      Maybe that’s “evil” but they see themselves as “good” and doing the right thing.

      I think it’s a third category. “Brainwashed”, or something.

      True, but I know people who are other categories. They have mental and/or social issues. The big social issue is tribalism - some go along to get along to survive in their social and work environments.

    “Fellas, is it gay to use a straw?”

    Fragile snowflake weirdos more obsessed with dicks than I am, and I’m gay as fuck.

    No, what it tells me is how little dirt you have to sling at Walz.

    Whereas Trump is a twice-impeached felon with dozens of convictions and a judge had to remind people in court that he raped the defamation litigant. He also insults disabled people and veterans and lies with every breath. Oh, and he participated in a failed coup against the American People. Trump and Fox “News” should stop attacking their betters…

    You guys know that I like to play with AI, so I asked AI what to make of this news channel. The AI told me to delete this meme because it has to be fake because no news channel would ever have aired that chyron nor have said such a ridiculous statement on prime time television.

    Guys, this is real. September 4, 2024. The bottom right image was added for relating to the topic.

    Weren’t they just throwing a collective temper tantrum about paper straws and how you could pry their plastic straws out of their cold dead lips?

    "Did you see the size of Walz’s hands compared to the cup? They were so tiny, completely emasculating!

    And his makeup, yeah he wears it, but they couldn’t even match it to his skin tone, it was so orange… Hmmm, wait a minute?" 🤔🤣

      If I were working at Fox News and shit like this was scheduled, I’d intercut the monologue with pictures of Trump doing exactly what they say is weird.

      I’d want the talking head to eventually stop and say, “Wait…why are we showing pictures of Trump?”

    These idiots are too stupid and brainwashed to even bother checking to see if there is an easily found rebuke to their bullshit.

    Complain about a tweet, it’s trivial to find three similar tweets made by Trump. Complain about using a straw, immediately find a photo of trump doing the exact same thing.

    There isn’t a single brain-cell reserved for wondering whether or not the bullshit they say will or will not immediately be found out to be pure hypocrisy.

    It’s almost impressive.

      The truth is that they know all this, they just don’t care.

      Politicians of the centre/left don’t tend to attack conservatives in this way, so the end result is a lot of noise about how bad one side is, regardless of whether their guy does it too. The noise is what they want, because it engenders uncertainty.

      All of this is just kinda funny though. They have fuck all of substance on Walz.

    Maga men don’t use a straw, they suck vanilla shake off of an erect penis. In a closet. Because that’s where most of them are.
