They quote me, “This cannot be accepted. This must be condemned. I wonder how many people in Montana are now going to vote for the guy, though?” Covered my bases. What’s this next one? This next one is Slate.com: “Today in Conservative Media: Yeah, Gianforte Assaulted a Reporter, but Rob Quist Has Herpes.” That is a reference to this program. (laughing)

And then one in the LA Times: “Some Conservatives Justify ‘Manly’ Montana Candidate’s Alleged Body-Slam of ‘Snowflake’ Reporter … Popular radio host Rush Limbaugh took a similar route. ‘I must join the chorus of people condemning what happened out there,’ Limbaugh said on his show. ‘This manly, obviously studly Republican candidate in Montana took the occasion to beat up a pajama-clad journalist, a Pajama Boy journalist out there.'”

What these quislings fail to realize is, is that society isn't broken up into just snowflakes and macho conservatives.

Snowflakes will identify and side with snowflakes.

What they fail to realize, is that most people are just regular Joes. They want to go about their own lives.

They want to follow and vote for decent and respectable people.

They mock Gianforte for being "manly" and "studly", simply because THEY are not.
THEY ARE the snowflakes.

What they fail to understand is people don't respect snowflakes.

A person doesn't HAVE to be macho or hard. They just don't have to be a pussy.

The more the media mocks Gianforte for being "manly", the more attractive he becomes to ordinary folks.
Also, the more "manly" they describe Gianforte, the more others, like themselves, appear to be unadmirable pussies.

Whether people are full blown, self reliant, take no prisoner hard asses, or not. They want to view themselves as having fortitude and aptitude. Not JUST attitude.

The media flaunts their attitude.
And mocks Gianfortes fortitude and aptitude.

The very thing most people identify with.

Thus. the media mocks what most people identify with and respect.

Then they must be thrilled that Hillary lost so many times

I'm frankly surprised that Perez hasn't couched the Hillary loss as a "victory". Not sure how they'd do it, but the Democrats make a loss sound like a victory.

As opposed to the Republicans, who seem to make a victory look like a loss.

Ellison is vomit-provoking.

“....Thus. the media mocks what most people identify with and respect....”

Maybe every Pubbie candidate should seek out to find a snowflake reporter that they can just body-slam the heck out of on live on TV till they can’t stand up anymore. The People seem to relate to it as they love seeing those low-life POSs that mock them and their values get their just rewards.

They went down down down, in a burnin’ ring of near wins,

They were always close, but they paid for their sins

with a loss despite

the tales of Russia,

and guys who push ya.

Let’s give the Dhimmicraps a whole bunch more moral victories.

maybe if they lose enough times they can eventually win based on volume?

Given their mindset I’m sure the media thought this last minute hit might turn the election in their, uh, I mean, the Dems favor, but shoving this snowflake aside made me like the guy better.

>> they should be landslides...

Agree. But I’ll take the win any day. Olympic gold medals are often won by hundredths of a second or fractions of an inch. They are still gold.

Quist got only 44.1%, even with the scandal giving him late help

2014 Rat/Stalinist Senate Nominee Amanda Curtis got 40.1%.
