Why does this thread have so many comments behind that ??????
Common decency? Shame? Self respect?? So you do not want your senator to twerk upside down, but it`s ok for someone elses senator to shame them

It is. I’d not done it, but we in a new norm. It’s not illegal or with someone’s partner. Back to business. If they aren’t happy - she’s old news.

I remember Democrats up in arms about Trump's video, but nary a word on the other side.
I don't know much about Eric Greitens, although a quick search tells me he was quite the POS. And after the stunt alluding to hunting RINO's, should never be allowed in politics.

As far as what Trump said, if he had said it, made a video , then posted it on tiktok, I'd be all over it, just like with what this classless Senator did. He didn't though, it was in a private conversation.

My point was more to the faux outrage here "But...the children!!" And "how could anyone vote for someone who would do something so classless....but I don't see the same outrage and concern for decency when it came to that Trump audio, or the murder-promoting ad. THAT last one to me is what parents should be most concerned with their children seeing. He made that ad very soon after a mass shooting, too. So where is the 50-page thread with conservatives shaming him???

This to me is much ado about nothing.

Because Conservatives didn't say anything about some of the dumbasses in the GOP, you ignore everything else ? Got it.

No they did not.

It's the element of folk dance in African villages.

Senator Mack tells voters to eat her butt

Maybe she should lose her Primary?

Id take this argument seriously if we didnt have senators and govenrors actively taking away the rights of other people to freely live their lives.

Both florida and Alabama( i live on the state line) now have pharmacies refusing to give women birth control and plan b.

Thats far more important than who twerked.

Yep, some idiot politician twerking doesn't have squat to do with abortion issues.

Bizzare case of whataboutism.
