The new meme on Morning Joe Scum

[malaise]

Losing ReTHUGs can be civil. So there.
Spare me please.

[greymattermom]

1. So let them all lose

and let them all be civil, and post concession speeches with their doggies.

[malaise]

3. Haha

[Sedona]

2. as if.....

That shouldn't be the rule rather than the exception.

[dem4decades]

4. Joe's already pivoted back to full blown Republican. As if he ever really left the GOP.

He's against Trump cause he's only trying to restore the GOP brand.

[Cary]

6. Restore it to what?

More subtle and refined lies and dog whistles? Where do they go from here? They are losers even with their embrace of white supremacists. Lop off 10% or whatever the white supremacist component is and they have what?

They are caught in their own web, spun by the likes of Lewis Powell and Jude Wanniski 50 years ago.

I think you give Scarborough too much credit. I think he is just lost.

[mucifer]

7. wow that wasn't what I heard at all this am. I heard constant repub bashing

[dem4decades]

8. He's already in the tank for a Nikki Haley presidential run.

He's picking and choosing which Republicans to promote so he can endorse them.

[Ninga]

5. Democrats concede graciously as matter of course....don't get props because people expect

that they will be gracious.

[MaryMagdaline]

9. The McSally concession was great ... comfort dog and all

No kidding, Arizona showed us the way to behave … not challenging the authenticity of the vote is HUGE in these days of lies and deceit.

If Joe Scum (I refuse to watch his show) is pushing the right to be civil, let him continue to do so. We have to start somewhere

[Hortensis]

13. Agree, except it reminded REPUBS how they used to do it.

By and large, we simply don't behave that way. When conservative Southern Democrats were a ruthless faction in our party, they created a lot of stories associated with "Democrats." But they were not us.

As it is, the most important function the Democratic Party serves is as defenders of democracy. THE defenders of democracy. These days we're it.

[MaryMagdaline]

17. We are! good point

[atreides1]

30. Really?

Let me get this straight...a woman who spent her campaign lying about her "support" for protection of pre-existing conditions and attacked the patriotism of her Democratic opponent, while the head of her party was crowing about how proud he was to be Nationalist...she gets a free pass because of a pretty speech while using her dog as a prop???


Talk about low standards...

[MaryMagdaline]

31. Unconditional surrender works for me

[brooklynite]

10. No, that wasn't what they said...

They pointed out that Martha McSally's positive concession speech stood in stark contrast to the behavior of Scott, DeSantis and other Republicans.

If you want to hate what they say on MJ, I have a suggestion: don't watch it.

[NewJeffCT]

11. One gracious concession speech from McSally

is something that was standard in almost every political race pre Trump.

Her entire campaign, though, was driven by lies and anger. Wasn't she one of those Republicans who said they would protect pre-existing conditions when she had voted against it in reality?

[malaise]

16. Shhhhhhhh!

Apparently the concession speech is all that matters

[oasis]

19. McSally's peeps advised her to soften up. They're aiming at 2020.

It's for damn sure not in her nature to make nice.

[malaise]

20. I heard someone say that McCain's replacement is not interested and she'll

get the appointment. So nice.

[NewJeffCT]

22. so, in a few months

she could be working side-by-side with Sinema.

[malaise]

23. Yep

[uponit7771]

28. +1, She was a Trump Hugger during the election

[Proud Liberal Dem]

29. Saw something on the news the other day

that she was caught on tape urging her fellow Republicans to get ACA repeal "f**king done"- or something to that effect.

And what would ACA repeal have done? Repealing pre-existing conditions protections. Thanks for asking.

[eShirl]

12. it's news when republicans are civil.

[malaise]

21. Apparently

[DeminPennswoods]

27. That's what O'Donnell said last night on his show

McSally's concession speech used to be normal, now it's the exception and news.

[mucifer]

14. I don't think we should only watch and listen to only shows that agree with us 100%:

For the most part he and his guests bash republicans. Sometimes he has pro republican things he and his guests say. Once in a blue moon I agree with those things.

Sometimes I do get a little tired of the echo chamber.

[malaise]

15. If I did I'd never watch Morning Joe Scum n/t

[oasis]

18. I ain't buying "Lyin" McSally's sincere concession speech.

[DetlefK]

24. Like... how Republicans sang a song about murdering the democratic winner?

[BSdetect]

25. Seems like they think we might treat them as they treated us?

Sorry gop. When you appear in your sheep disguise we can still hear you howling. It's a giveaway.

[NoMoreRepugs]

26. Praise because someone was civil? No thank you.

[malaise]

33. Never heard of that

Welcome to DU rao.
