Banksy:
Joe had a bunch of good ones. Colin Jost had a sadly revealing summary of MAGAts and the 2024 presidential race in America:
"So let me see if I can summarize where this race stands at this moment: The republican candidate for president owes half-a-billion in fines for bank fraud, and is currently spending his days farting himself awake during a porn star hush money trial... and the race is tied?!!" Insane, right?
Spiro Agnew resigned his vice presidency in disgrace and went on to plead no contest to a charge of cheating the Government of $13,551.47 on his Federal income tax payment for 1967, his first year as Governor of Maryland.
That ended his political career.
Gary Hart, the democratic frontrunner, dropped out of the 1988 presidential race after journalists reported on one of his many affairs. Donna Rice was pictured on the lap of Gary Hart on the cover of the June 2, 1987, issue of the National Enquirer. Wow, what a coincidence.
Hart would never run in another election. His senate career ended in 1987.
But MAGAts, formerly the party of law and order but now the party of grievance and revenge, want to reelect Trump, a president who attempted to prevent the peaceful transfer of power by assembling a mob to storm the U.S. Capitol; conspired to create false electoral slates in key states; clearly bullied officials in some states to “find” more votes for him; urged his Vice President not to certify the legitimate results of the 2020 election; called American war dead suckers and losers; used illegal methods
while president to pay off a porn star he was raw-dogging while his wife was home with their newborn son; and kept dozens of the nation's most sensitive military intelligence documents out in the open in an unlocked bathroom and on a ballroom stage at Mar-a-Lago.
The republican party is officially dead.
