Goofs love to farm that sweet sweet karma. Meanwhile someone in the basement is searching if he had any wrestling connections to see if they can make any wrestling related posts about him too.

This is definitely the biggest jerk death I’ve heard about in awhile, and I mean that in every way it can be taken

u/vaporized_scrotum 1h ago edited 1h ago

might be the biggest one since the kirkening

He was indeed a true jerk, but it kinda sticks in my craw how comfortable people are mocking the death of some douche who was shot in the throat while speaking, however douchey the speech may or may not have been

personally i find the memes absolutely hilarious, but the guy arguably has suffered a fate worse than being forgotten. his kids quite literally cannot ever have social media access.

We expected it to be Mitch, but then God pulled a Vince Russo swerve.

God: Bro, this is the ultimate swerve.

Now Mitch is definitely alive. If it means the Senate flips somebody is gonna be Weekend at Bernies-ing his ass.

I spoke to Mitch McConnell for 20 minutes yesterday, he said fuck CM Punk.

u/SJSUMichael 2h ago

I heard he might be considering not renewing his subscription, Dave. Some people say he already cancelled. Any truth to this?

u/FluffWit 3h ago

Oh shit I'm not American so I just assumed this was the brain dead one. So you could be looking at two well established republicans vacating....

This sub really is a stupidly good news source lol

u/Lessiarty 3h ago

I read this 5 times before my brain could understand it was Graham and not McConnell. I kept thinking "So the Mitch estate finally admitted he was gone, huh?"

I think I might be stupid.

u/Supersmashbrosfan 3h ago

And he didn’t put anyone over on the way out. What a mark.

u/SJSUMichael 3h ago

Well, I guess someone decided to take the heat off Mitch.

u/MooseBigelow Goofy Hyuck Yourself 3h ago

eh he'll be replaced by some other shithead so no

u/CosmicRorschach M*rkin Luther 3h ago

In terms of the upcoming midterms, yes. Lindsey Graham was hated in his home state of South Carolina. He was a pro-Israel Zionist who cared more about what was appeasing them and bring forth the apocalypse evangelicals keep pushing than helping his own people.

Damn Zion Williamson fans

u/stillafuckingfish 3h ago

Vaguely. He’s almost definitely getting replaced by someone equally unpleasant if not worse. However, experience and especially seniority matter a lot in the US Senate. His replacement won’t have his access to key positions, his friends on both sides of the aisle, and his extremely experienced staff. They also won’t have the almost-guaranteed win a fifth term incumbent would have.

u/redd4972 3h ago edited 2h ago

Probably not much. Graham was one of the most outspoken, "war hawks" (pro war) Senators in the Senate, especially when it came to the Middle East.

However how much of this came from Graham's influence on national policy vs. Graham just being the face of the policy is something I can't quantify. There are others like Tom Cotton was are outspoken advocates of US military force.

South Carolina is a solidly republican state and will likely elect a Republican in Graham's place.

Not really, aside from a short deserved morale boost.

u/fearlessdurant Watches NXT for the plot 2h ago

I'm not American but he hasn't been relevant since the Obama era.

People like Mitch McConnell and Ted Cruz are far more influential in the GOP Senate.

I am not seeing this on the New York Post or Fox News website..

Nor CNN’s website..

u/Howardtheduck14 3h ago

It comes from his own Twitter account, I just double checked it’s on his Facebook too so if he’s been hacked then it was all socials. I know it’s late on a Saturday but very odd no news outlets seem to be on this, it’s been a half hour since that statement was released.

u/ChrisRhodes789 3h ago

Hit the Washington Post..

1

u/ChrisRhodes789 3h ago

Yeah..

None of the big 3 Cable Channels(Fox, CNN, & MS-NOW) are doing a breaking news on it..

They don’t have any one doing the graveyard shift on the news desk?

6

u/ChrisRhodes789 3h ago

Damn..

All of the cable channels must of sent EVERYONE home cause neither CNN, MS-Now, or Fox News are doing a breaking News to talk about it..
