I was so pissed off yesterday when the Iowa Cult put forward Motherfucker, but then I remembered that:
1. It's Iowa
2. It's the Cult
3. It constituted 5% of Iowa's population and 50% of this ruby red shitshow of a state voted against Motherfucker
This is icing on the cake.

(7,841 posts)Will be tough to hold onto in November with presidential election turnout levels, but a positive sign regardless. Democrats typicallydo 5-10 points better here in special elections, the right is lazy that way.

(9,922 posts)1. Donald Trump is not a well man, and most people realize it.
2. Womens rights as an issue will not go away until they are completely restored.
In 2024, "staying the course" will end up costing the GOP dearly.
