Thanks.
I hate Twatter so here is an NBC video timestamped to the start. The rest of the show is just Joe talking.
You mean Xwatter
You are the hero that we don't deserve. Except for me, I totally deserve you ;)
Quite possibly one of the greatest campaign ads I've seen. It's just too perfect.
It's extremely intelligent. Using the other side's words against them. Not only that, he never said a single word in it. Just actions. In a cinematic context it is a great way to tell a story without having to tell the audience.
And not a single dig on the other side. Classy.
Ok when I heard about this I thought it was just going to be amusing, but seeing the actual commercial it's a fucking masterpiece.
It's so good there are almost certainly going to be MAGA fans who start accusing Greene of being a secret librul the whole time undermining Tangerine Palpatine.

I'll be honest I did not watch MTG's speech, and I don't know the full context. But I don't understand how that stuff is supposed to sound negative. She actually wrote that down and had someone proofread it and no one said "actually, this kinda makes it sound like he's doing good things"
Some Republicans genuinely think FDR was a bad president and the social programs he created were bad. They're also the ones that like Reagan.
The context is that she adds the word "socialism" to it. You know, making him sound even cooler.
i wish he was half as cool as they make him sound
I'm so confused. Who could possibly think these are bad things?
when your entire ideology is based on opposition to what the people you hate are in favor of, well…
Key & Peele covered this pretty well
Here is an alternative Piped link(s): https://piped.video/B46km4V0CMY
Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.
I'm open-source, check me out at GitHub.
If you say people and companies are 'woke' then you hate all these things.
The upbeat background music is killing me in this video, but I also can't help but think that MGT is saying these things with a positive voice inflection. Like, this isn't the wind-up to a "AND THIS IS BAD" shoe being dropped at the end of her cadence. I'm fully surprised at how benevolent her tone of voice is here in describing anything about Biden given her other howler-monkey tendencies.
I detected a hint of sarcasm / sneer in her tone at "urban problems", but yeah, she really lacks any self awareness at all.
Yeah I could definitely tell that "urban problems" was supposed to be a racist dogwhistle
I find it amazing how no politicians really call out republican use of "urban" when we all know they mean "black".
And they still think it's subtle and clever, and that they "get away with it"... They're so fucking dumb.
Be careful. She might run for president.
AOC vs MTG 2030
If some day we find out that MTG was an inside job, a lot of things will start to make sense. I don't think that's true though, she just lives in some other reality and shares glimpses with us from time to time.
It's possible to be both. A useful idiot, if you will.
When has Sporkfoot ever been useful?
I wish someone'd trick her back through whatever gate she squirted through. No idea what they used for bait the first time, though. Rural gym bros?
It's a dark summoning ritual involving copies of Atlas Shrugged, banjo music and those pickup trucks modified to spew out large clouds of black smoke on command.
First post on Lemmy that I've bookmarked. That was amazing. How dare Biden do all those things that would benefit average Americans? What an asshole!
Let's go Dems.
She followed this up yesterday by showing naked Hunter Biden pics on the floor of congress. Super genius lady. The Jews will never catch her sleeping with their space lasers!
Then she posted revenge porn and tweeted it out to minors.
I'm guessing Elon was just fine with that.
I bet half the views are bots. Can bots watch a video? if yes, change my mind
Half the views might just be me laughing how on brand it is for 'Dark Brandon'
me too, i'm somewhat of an anarcho-bidenist myself /s
Heck, it is so viral I feel pressured to share it with everyone who uses the internet, and I don't even one in U.S
Do you have a link directly to the video?
Not sure why the article buried the video but here:
