It’s not so much the choice of words. At this political moment for the party, there’s just a pants-pissing fear of offending MAGAts amongst older members of the GOP like McCaul who want to retain elected office.
No one should ever have to apologize for telling a MAGA politician to go fuck themselves. In a properly-run society, it would be practically a civic duty.
I will happily join the rising chorus telling them to “Go Fuck Yourself!!” at any opportunity. As one should. It’s only proper, after all.
I’m okay with it. Darrell Issa is an ass.
That is uncharacteristic of me
That’s too bad, you were almost sympathetic for a moment.
Not like McCaul is any better. They can both fuck themselves. Or each other.
He shouldn’t apologize. Darrell Issa SHOULD go fuck himself.
They should grow a spine, because not doing so isn’t gonne help them if they get into a primary with a MAGA, if their district gets redder somehow.
I honestly just recently learned that Issa was still in congress. I thought he was still gone when they moved the district lines up there around and he lost in 2018.
That’s unfortunate…
It’s because the word refers to a sexual act. Now if he had told him to die in a hail of bullets, that would be a perfectly acceptable, red-blooded 'Murican way to go.
/s?
Telling a fellow member of congress to fuck themselves is really not cool ma… oh, wait, it was directed at a MAGAt?
THAT he should apologize for.
