I just added to my response to you - no one on Twitter thinks is sarcasm either. George II Aug 2021 #5

Maybe the fox viewer twitterers?

Hayes was clearly making a sarcastic comment about judicial overreach.

I used to be able to read all Tweet replies, but now when I click on the Tweet a notice appears that I have to log in (don't have an account) and I can't see more than a few comments. Twitter changed something. I am sad.

before I joined in 2018.. and it was all available.

That seems weird to me.. they're always changing though like my MS Edge 10laptop and Not for the better.

I'll PM you! They're too brutal.. Seems like a lot of Dems were on to him no matter how "sarcastic" or Not his tweet is.

Lots of very good sarcasm on Twitter. He is evidently not good at it.

Now, GOPers will scream “socialism” and such, but that’s not unconstitutional.

Sure, folks will file suits just like last election. But Supreme Court didn’t put up with BS.

Very very cool = not cool at all
What won't be cool at all? The Roberts court striking down
Whatever big legislative priorities Dems manage to pass = Anything the Dems can get done and passed.

He sounds frustrated. You know his wife is a lawyer who worked for Obama, and he's always been very interested in SCOTUS, going back to before he was guesting on Keith's show.
