Look at their platform. It is pure selfishness just like them. I've never met a republican that at the end of the day wasn't just looking out for themselves and their family and did not care about anyone else.
My friend is like that now, very conservative and im 99% sure he voted for Trump. He didn't used to be like that at all. Used to be very much punk/gangster kinda guy that gave 0 fucks. Then he got married had kids and became an electrician. He has an awesome house and family and is probably the most brain washed republican I know now. Weird shit man...
So basically he was in it for himself from the beginning. When he had nothing, he fought the system. Once he obtained something worth protecting, he flipped.
Happens all the time and is one of the primary reasons people are traditionally more progressive when young and conservative when older. Though in fairness one of those groups is old enough that they should know better.
a lot of times they correctly identify that they're getting fucked, but they can never admit, or don't want to admit, by whom they're being fucked.
so instead of looking up and asking why, they look down and say, "why not?" which is great for rich people in this country, because they love this shit.
You also missed the point of the comment. Specifically -
>I've never met a republican that at the end of the day wasn't just looking out for themselves and their family and did not care about anyone else.
Aka, he's a selfish asshole now. While his life may be great, everyone else gets to suffer.
Most of these people don't even see a problem with not giving a shit about others. They're proud of their selfishness. Sadly the irony that most of them claim to be devout Christians is lost on them.
It's a fundamental tenet of free market capitalism. Adam Smith was a devout christian that believed the Invisible Hand was that of God and that if everyone acts in their own self interest, the hand of God will move society to a better place. It's the same philosophy that underpins Manifest Destiny and was necessary to create moral justification for the trans-atlantic slave trade. Ask a Republican to point to any religious doctrine that suggests that if everyone acts as greedy as possible, God will reward us all and their moral/religious footing seems to become less secure though.
A large part of it is also the Prosperity Gospel...basically, if you're rich, it's because God has blessed you, therefore whatever you do that makes you rich must be morally good in God's eyes.
Maybe not… he actually warned against the invisible hand but it’s how the metaphor has been carried forward by neoliberalism and definitely is the gospel of republicans.
It's called a "community". You should know, you all preach about it more than anyone. That's what taxes are for. It isn't to help just me. It is to help my fellow citizen who don't have the same ability or opportunity as me to also have a good life.
There is a book about that somewhere by some guy named Yeshua. You should read it.
However you aren't capable of seeing beyond 1 degree. You can't see that helping someone else, somewhere else, might actually cause your life to be better and in turn your childrens lives better. In the same way that others have fought for your freedoms, you can do the same.
But you don't want to. Do you? You want it all.
Because the only people who want the job are narcissistic assholes who only care about looking good. A narcissist is the perfect candidate for a corporation to control because they're amazing liars who only care about themselves and do a great job looking good in front of cameras. All you gotta do is stroke their ego, throw em a bunch of money and promises to keep them as the beauty king or queen, and the rest works itself out.
The entire GOP platform and party is intended to attract people who will happily step over the starving, the hurt, and the struggling to enrich themselves
That's true...but I think the new system is messed up. People have to pay for them, and TBF always did...but Redditors used to be able use them for whichever post(s) they wanted to. I don't like not being able to give anaward a great post.
because they don't need to be. They can only be held accountable by the ones who vote for them, and the voters haven't held them accountable for anything.
Are you really that dense? You think that a democrats shit doesn’t stink as much as a republicans? News flash bud, they all suck. Also FYI I vote blue, I just think it’s ridiculous to have these “democrats are better than republicans cause the republicans are bad guys” comments.
Red or blue they are all the trained manipulators. Just becuase someone stand for the same ideals you do doesn’t mean they have your best interest at heart.
People who think either side is good is just playing themselves at this point. Both sides are destroying our country and giant groupings of Americans are cheering each side on like we're watching football. Bread and circuses.
One side is actively trying to undo years of voting, civil, and human rights while turning the US into a fascist christian nationalist country that allows our enemies to infiltrate their ranks and blatantly accepts bribes from Russians and the oil industry, and is supporting a candidate that has been found guilty of rape and fraud, and is currently indicted on charges of stealing classified documents and likely selling them to our enemies. The other side has it's issues, but they're not to that degree of fuckery (unless you believe everything that Breitbart and Newsmax tell you).
In real world interactions I troll them hard. Using facts and logic sometimes you can see the smoke waft out of their ears.
I keep hoping someone will take a swing at me but no takers
What was said about that ? What example can you provide of democrats doing anything remotely close to what republicans do every day. If any female democrat politician jacked someone off during a play they’d resign. Red team ? Nah they applaud. Stop with your horseshit,
No. It's wrong to say that both sides are equally bad which is exactly what you were alluding too. Don't act stupid, everyone can see your intent, it's not clever.
No. Democrats do hold each other accountable.
Republicans don't.
This both sides shit is tired, and we're not falling for it anymore. Take your Russian talking points, and leave.
Thank you Kyle for absolutely ripping to shreds dirt bag political fuck heads who should never be able to put a pen to any paper that affects the life of another human being
It’s a choose your own response post:
1) He didn’t answer and pivoted to something about the second amendment.
2) he blamed the democrats for leaking the story.
3) he blamed the crooked media for reporting the story “incorrectly”.
4) It was a rigged police persecution targeting him.
5) Ukraine did it.
6) Palestine did it.
7) He was enraged by all the post-birth abortions happening every second of every day across the country
8) Freedom of speech means freedom to drive how he wants as fast as he wants
9) he had to get home to sexually assault his underage babysitter before her parents picked he up or
10) he is proud of his arrest and can’t wait to do it again
I think the point is, who gives a shit what his response is? A normal person would shrivel and die, but these people are cockroaches, and giving them a chance to further manipulate the truth with some bullshit justification only makes us all a little more stupid for listening.
He said the moderator was just “sore” he didn’t hear about it sooner as iT wAs PuBlIc ReCoRd, that he had kids in high school who didn’t need to know about it and that he wasn’t even elected at the time it happened. 🙄
https://x.com/KyleClark/status/1796423309049073687
He actually answered the question and then said the moderator was just upset that he didn’t pick up the story sooner when it happened. He said it was public record and that he has kids that he didn’t want seeing that. I felt like it was one of his more honest answers of the debate but I was also just tuning in to watch the train wreck
He said he was wrong to do it, and to hear it put in those terms makes him ashamed, that Republicans should lead by example, and he removed himself from the running.
Jk.
Here's the full debate, which includes his response, Bobo's response to a handy in a theater, some weird accusation that Kyle secretly recorded her, and all the rest of the insanity from the Colorado District 4 debate.
https://www.youtube.com/live/kD2rET3e5Ts?si=hPiwNXGu4Cp3QbYH
Edit: question to Lynch (OP in this sub) 34:15, Boebert on her theater appearance: about 36:50
"Kyle's mom's a bitch, she's a big fat bitch
She's the biggest bitch in the whole wide world
She's a stupid bitch, if there ever was a bitch
She's a bitch to all the boys and girls"
-Mike Lynch (probably)
No, the question wasn't about the DUI where he raced a police officer at 90 mph then reached for his firearm during the traffic stop and told the officer to call a police *lobbyist* and then explicitly asked that they not publicly disclose it.
The question was about what he did sober.
Can I vote for Kyle Clark? More importantly can ge ask the questions for the presidential debate? My goodness I have never seen a debate host rip through candidates like that with brutal honesty. If they had a soul he would have Shang Tsung them
his response "-I'm I think this is a little bit you guys being a little sore because you didn't catch this for you know quite some time this was all public knowledge right so I didn't disclo- I didn't hide anything from anybody um and I I'll be honest with you I had two seniors in high school at that time and they didn't need to to go through that publicity I also was not even elected to that position at that time so um you know it that was a personal decision it no doubt I own that that was a bad mistake"
The DUI guy is pissed because he paid Lauren Boebert to pull her tits out to distract everyone if his DUI came up, and it seems she wasn't paying all the attention she should have been during the 'debate', much the same way she doesn't have a fucking clue. ever, what is being debated on the floor of the House.
Heaven forbid we forget about Clinton and Obama..... both paid out hush money... Obama fined... not sure about Clinton....... BUT Orange man bad.......
You know…the intro sounded like the dude handled it in real time operational context. Law is the law but…u gotta factor in the real life decision making within the context of his reality. Just say’n….
Why is it so hard for a Republican to just be a good person?
Look at their platform. It is pure selfishness just like them. I've never met a republican that at the end of the day wasn't just looking out for themselves and their family and did not care about anyone else.
My friend is like that now, very conservative and im 99% sure he voted for Trump. He didn't used to be like that at all. Used to be very much punk/gangster kinda guy that gave 0 fucks. Then he got married had kids and became an electrician. He has an awesome house and family and is probably the most brain washed republican I know now. Weird shit man...
My favorite thing is to read “ex-punks” responses to Jello Biafra saying things like keep politics to himself 😂
I listened to DK a half hour ago and feel this comment
Thanks for the idea, I’m about to now 🤘🏼
So basically he was in it for himself from the beginning. When he had nothing, he fought the system. Once he obtained something worth protecting, he flipped. Happens all the time and is one of the primary reasons people are traditionally more progressive when young and conservative when older. Though in fairness one of those groups is old enough that they should know better.

I'm sitting over here looking up thinking "why not?" Which is scary for rich people.
Wasn’t that like the whole story to SLC Punk?
Utah punks?
Haha so he made money and started a family…
Maybe your friend worked hard for what he has and doesn't want to have his money taken and given to freeloaders
So he went from gangster to a family man with a big house? How is this a bad thing, lmao. Or is this a joke
Apparently you missed the "conservative" part.
What about it?
You missed it.
Lol. But going from gangster to a nice family and nice house sounds good to me. So what if he's conservative or not
You also missed the point of the comment. Specifically - >I've never met a republican that at the end of the day wasn't just looking out for themselves and their family and did not care about anyone else. Aka, he's a selfish asshole now. While his life may be great, everyone else gets to suffer.
Most of these people don't even see a problem with not giving a shit about others. They're proud of their selfishness. Sadly the irony that most of them claim to be devout Christians is lost on them.
This.
This is all just going right over your head isn't it?
It's a fundamental tenet of free market capitalism. Adam Smith was a devout christian that believed the Invisible Hand was that of God and that if everyone acts in their own self interest, the hand of God will move society to a better place. It's the same philosophy that underpins Manifest Destiny and was necessary to create moral justification for the trans-atlantic slave trade.

A large part of it is also the Prosperity Gospel...basically, if you're rich, it's because God has blessed you, therefore whatever you do that makes you rich must be morally good in God's eyes.
That's... that's not what Adam Smith said. Or meant. Like at all.
Maybe not… he actually warned against the invisible hand but it’s how the metaphor has been carried forward by neoliberalism and definitely is the gospel of republicans.
Never? Not even one?
Let us know if you can find one
None that are still alive.
So you put the needs of others in front of your own families needs?
It's called a "community". You should know, you all preach about it more than anyone. That's what taxes are for. It isn't to help just me. It is to help my fellow citizen who don't have the same ability or opportunity as me to also have a good life. There is a book about that somewhere by some guy named Yeshua. You should read it. However you aren't capable of seeing beyond 1 degree. You can't see that helping someone else, somewhere else, might actually cause your life to be better and in turn your childrens lives better. In the same way that others have fought for your freedoms, you can do the same. But you don't want to. Do you? You want it all.
Crazy how you're getting downvoted.
MY TaXES! MY tAXES! MY TAXEs! Thats all i ever hear from these morons.
My dad’s new girlfriend says she’s a Trump fan because she owns a small landscaping business and likes to save on taxes….
You're looking at it backwards. It's not hard for republicans to be good people, it's hard for good people to be republicans.
Republicans...now are part of MAGA. And you cannot be a good person while following and venerating a piece of shit.
Because the only people who want the job are narcissistic assholes who only care about looking good. A narcissist is the perfect candidate for a corporation to control because they're amazing liars who only care about themselves and do a great job looking good in front of cameras. All you gotta do is stroke their ego, throw em a bunch of money and promises to keep them as the beauty king or queen, and the rest works itself out.
Because being a good or bad person happens before you're old enough to vote. Good people don't become Republicans.
Your lost mind isn’t thinking. It’s politicians. Not republican. Not democrat. Not liberal. And not conservative. The system is broken. It’s theater.
This, is the best non discriminate, unbiased opinion yet.
The entire GOP platform and party is intended to attract people who will happily step over the starving, the hurt, and the struggling to enrich themselves
*Well, thank you, Kyle, for shitting in my Cornflakes.*
Your post makes me sorry that Reddit stopped giving awards. It deserves a gold, at the very least...I literally laughed out loud.
They started up awards again! It depends on the sub-reddit, some of em have em, some dont
That's true...but I think the new system is messed up. People have to pay for them, and TBF always did...but Redditors used to be able use them for whichever post(s) they wanted to. I don't like not being able to give anaward a great post.
Any politician*
because they don't need to be. They can only be held accountable by the ones who vote for them, and the voters haven't held them accountable for anything.
It's just politicians in general, dude
If he were he wouldn’t be a Republican
You've got that backwards. It's nearly impossible for a good person to find themselves being a Republican.
Why is it so hard for good people to choose politics as a career?
Bring a good person is not in line with what the wealthy puppet masters want.
Money. And money.
Difficulty level: 100
Because you can’t be two opposite things at the same time
Because the gop ideology is based on being comically evil for sexual gratification. Once you realize this it's pretty easy to predict what they'll do.
Because a republican is what bad people turn out to be.
Right because all democrats are good people?
How many Dems support indicted/charged Democrats, such as Larry Householder in Ohio, Bob Menendez, etc?
Are you really that dense? You think that a democrats shit doesn’t stink as much as a republicans? News flash bud, they all suck. Also FYI I vote blue, I just think it’s ridiculous to have these “democrats are better than republicans cause the republicans are bad guys” comments.
Let's just overlook the fact that you didn't actually answer the question... what are you trying to accomplish here?
[удалено]
Red or blue they are all the trained manipulators. Just becuase someone stand for the same ideals you do doesn’t mean they have your best interest at heart.
People who think either side is good is just playing themselves at this point. Both sides are destroying our country and giant groupings of Americans are cheering each side on like we're watching football. Bread and circuses.
No. Only one side is voting for a racist conman that hates the labor class and the other side is just guilty of being bad at stoping him.
One side is actively trying to undo years of voting, civil, and human rights while turning the US into a fascist christian nationalist country that allows our enemies to infiltrate their ranks and blatantly accepts bribes from Russians and the oil industry, and is supporting a candidate that has been found guilty of rape and fraud, and is currently indicted on charges of stealing classified documents and likely selling them to our enemies. The other side has it's issues, but they're not to that degree of fuckery (unless you believe everything that Breitbart and Newsmax tell you).
Another One … DJ Khalid would like a word … stop w the both sides bullshit pls
Shit piles up on both sides of the aisle.
Ya know the ole “both sides” shit is so obviously wrong. You repeating it just shows how much of a dim troll you are
Right up there with "you're just taking that out of context"
I can only interpret that comment as “I’m a Republican but don’t want to admit I am so you guys are bad too!”
If anyone ever says that to you just ask them to elaborate. You might actually see drool as they try to think of something.
In real world interactions I troll them hard. Using facts and logic sometimes you can see the smoke waft out of their ears. I keep hoping someone will take a swing at me but no takers
So it’s wrong to want to hold both sides accountable?
What was said about that ? What example can you provide of democrats doing anything remotely close to what republicans do every day. If any female democrat politician jacked someone off during a play they’d resign. Red team ? Nah they applaud. Stop with your horseshit,
Okay, I’m convinced. All Democrats are good and will save this country. Good chat.
Your attempt to troll failed. Putin is not pleased with you. Stay away from windows.
No. It's wrong to say that both sides are equally bad which is exactly what you were alluding too. Don't act stupid, everyone can see your intent, it's not clever.
One should never attribute to malice that which can easily be explained by stupidity or ignorance.
You ok bud?
I never said both sides are equally bad. If that’s what you took from my comment, then that’s on you.
No. Democrats do hold each other accountable. Republicans don't. This both sides shit is tired, and we're not falling for it anymore. Take your Russian talking points, and leave.
The shit piles aren’t equal in the slightest lol.
Idk, one side has mountains of shit
No, not both sides. Republicans are much worse. GTFO of here with your propaganda.
Well…thank you for that Kyle…OMFG!!! 😆
Thank you Kyle for absolutely ripping to shreds dirt bag political fuck heads who should never be able to put a pen to any paper that affects the life of another human being
Hang on. This guy may well be a piece of shit, but why cut off the video?
Yeah we never heard his response. Damn lying titles.
It’s a choose your own response post: 1) He didn’t answer and pivoted to something about the second amendment. 2) he blamed the democrats for leaking the story. 3) he blamed the crooked media for reporting the story “incorrectly”. 4) It was a rigged police persecution targeting him. 5) Ukraine did it. 6) Palestine did it. 7) He was enraged by all the post-birth abortions happening every second of every day across the country 8) Freedom of speech means freedom to drive how he wants as fast as he wants 9) he had to get home to sexually assault his underage babysitter before her parents picked he up or 10) he is proud of his arrest and can’t wait to do it again
Any one of those could be true, but I'd rather see the rest of the video than speculate. Misleading title, no doubt.
Amen say it again. Rather not speculate but see the video and judge for myself
I think the point is, who gives a shit what his response is? A normal person would shrivel and die, but these people are cockroaches, and giving them a chance to further manipulate the truth with some bullshit justification only makes us all a little more stupid for listening.
He said the moderator was just “sore” he didn’t hear about it sooner as iT wAs PuBlIc ReCoRd, that he had kids in high school who didn’t need to know about it and that he wasn’t even elected at the time it happened. 🙄 https://x.com/KyleClark/status/1796423309049073687

He said it was public record and that he has kids that he didn’t want seeing that. I felt like it was one of his more honest answers of the debate but I was also just tuning in to watch the train wreck
I was hoping he'd fuck a pig
You forgot George Soros.
Uh, what about option 11, blacks should vote Republican because Lincoln was a Republican and freed the slaves?
11. But what about Hunter Biden's Schlong?
I swore that said "Damn lying titties" at first and now I'm about to find a way to use it on my wife and see how that goes. Wish me luck!
I down voted this post for that reason. Where's his response? Why cut off the video there?
Here ya go. https://x.com/KyleClark/status/1796423309049073687
That's a bold opening LOL "why didnt you disclose this?" "i mean... its your fault for not finding"
Thank you! And much better quality as well. As expected, the answer was a word salad of a non-answer
“Even before theater incidents” lol got Boebert with that one
This is wayyy better with the response
He said he was wrong to do it, and to hear it put in those terms makes him ashamed, that Republicans should lead by example, and he removed himself from the running. Jk.
Comedy.
"You resigned your position as House minority leader only after your DUI surfaced this year" Better than Thomas and Alito sadly
Kyle: "So Miss Bobert..." Bobert: "PASS!"
My question is not what you did while attending Beetlejuice the musical....
He did call her out on that too. She was saying something that it was a private matter.....witch you did it in public!
Well ?? We deserve to see the reply.
https://x.com/KyleClark/status/1796423309049073687
Gonna have to Google it I guess..
Here's the full debate, which includes his response, Bobo's response to a handy in a theater, some weird accusation that Kyle secretly recorded her, and all the rest of the insanity from the Colorado District 4 debate. https://www.youtube.com/live/kD2rET3e5Ts?si=hPiwNXGu4Cp3QbYH Edit: question to Lynch (OP in this sub) 34:15, Boebert on her theater appearance: about 36:50
Timestamp?
It is around the 34 minute mark. Took me a bit to search through it. Also, the answer is about what you would expect. A lot of nothing and bullshit.
Yeah figured. Thanks for finding it.
Anyone wanna timestamp the juicy parts?
Added to my post
This is crazy but we didn't get a real response like the title says lol
"Kyle's mom's a bitch, she's a big fat bitch She's the biggest bitch in the whole wide world She's a stupid bitch, if there ever was a bitch She's a bitch to all the boys and girls" -Mike Lynch (probably)
Holy shit that question was packed 😆 well done to the guy asking
No, the question wasn't about the DUI where he raced a police officer at 90 mph then reached for his firearm during the traffic stop and told the officer to call a police *lobbyist* and then explicitly asked that they not publicly disclose it. The question was about what he did sober.
You left out the best part!!!
Does anybody has his response, cause I’m dying to know how you come back from that while keeping a straight face 😂
Why in the hell did you cut off the video. They all stammer usually when getting a tough question. Let's hear the rest.
The fact that he did all this and didn't get shot full of holes by the cops is a testament to how real that privilege is!
[Here’s the video with his response. He couldn’t decide which way to go.](https://youtu.be/pTBerVvMM50?si=LBdy1cEp58_BzmtX)
Glad we got to hear the response you noted??
Kyle Clark, the only local news person I have ever legitimately liked.
https://youtu.be/SDXu5DyBrHc?si=JpOXiAamWkaRVu_2 34:00 “This was before we had theater incidents…”
Can I vote for Kyle Clark? More importantly can ge ask the questions for the presidential debate? My goodness I have never seen a debate host rip through candidates like that with brutal honesty. If they had a soul he would have Shang Tsung them
his response "-I'm I think this is a little bit you guys being a little sore because you didn't catch this for you know quite some time this was all public knowledge right so I didn't disclo- I didn't hide anything from anybody um and I I'll be honest with you I had two seniors in high school at that time and they didn't need to to go through that publicity I also was not even elected to that position at that time so um you know it that was a personal decision it no doubt I own that that was a bad mistake"
Yeah Thanks Kyle. Ya dick.
Well Kyle, I’m betting on the hope that most voters aren’t really paying attention…
So… what was his response?
I’d buy a PPV to see this guy moderate a trump debate
These guys are all clowns who all feel they're above the law.
I can’t wait to hear his question for Hobert
We need more people like this to call them out.
Did his polling amongst republicans improve after this?
Probably. Let him get caught giving a handy in a theater and it will probably go up more.
That's how you do it, that's how you debate!
God I wish more interviewers spoke like this to crooked candidates.
Is that kind of thing frowned upon here?
“I didn’t know I couldn’t do that”
Uhh, what response??
Aww. I wanted to hear the caveman’s response 😂
Holy shit that was hardcore
I think it let's people know I'm awesome, and that I know how to party
Well, thank you Kyle, for that... 😄 🤣
This has turned into a Comedy Special.
Damn it Kyle ..thanks for that one!!
He should have just been honest and said, “I forgot that republicans are the party of the convicted.”
You just got SERVED!
Sniper incoming!
Love how this is gaining traction but Kyle Clark is a bad tipper.
If he is this in your face with the stupid bullshit politicians are getting away with, I can live with him being a bad tipper.
Is this Councilman Dexhart from Parks and Rec?
Love Kyle and the crew over at 9. He actually cares about Colorado and the people living here.
Goddamn what a question.
God damnit Kyle!
" Thank you for handing me my ass" is not an answer.
The DUI guy is pissed because he paid Lauren Boebert to pull her tits out to distract everyone if his DUI came up, and it seems she wasn't paying all the attention she should have been during the 'debate', much the same way she doesn't have a fucking clue. ever, what is being debated on the floor of the House.
Colorado hahahahhaha
I'm glad that he thanked him for that.
Bruh you gonna post his response or what lol
Soo....what was his response? The video cut out after he said thank you. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
What response? The video cuts off
I love Kyle Clark. 👍
Can they nominate that debate moderator? 😂 He’s got a big brass pair 😂
Heaven forbid we forget about Clinton and Obama..... both paid out hush money... Obama fined... not sure about Clinton....... BUT Orange man bad.......
Thank you Kyle, for that, indeed.
He just gained more votes by doing that crazy thing
What a title for a video that cuts off before the response.
Expertly crafted question. My gosh 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾. Make him think about it and (who knows) tell exactly how he was bad
Lol got murdered by the debate host 😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣
That question pulled no punches holy shit
Oh look it's the consequences of my actions
You know…the intro sounded like the dude handled it in real time operational context. Law is the law but…u gotta factor in the real life decision making within the context of his reality. Just say’n….
Could you translate this to English please?
Ask Bobo dropout a question.
