Don't kid yourself, politics in the New England region has been dirty since the days when New York was New Amsterdam.

The only difference is they didn't crap where they ate for last four centuries. But lately they've confused waste processing plants for picnic benches.

I didn't say it wasn't dirty just that its conquence free, there was a time where you could be dirty but you had to be competent or else. Now you can be dirty and incompetent.

So apparently his family was so poor he couldn't afford new clothes, but could afford an Xbox, a $2700 rifle with a $700 optics package on it and drove to the school in a $60,000 truck.

...that's, uh, interesting.
 
Did I just see that dumbass from El Paso barging into Governor Abbott's press conference in Uvalde earlier this afternoon?

You're mixing up a few details, as far as I can tell. TX school shooter was bullied at school because of the clothes he wore

He was bullied over his clothing because of how he dressed, not because his family was so poor he couldn't buy clothes (he was bullied for being poor as well, but "poor" doesn't mean "has literally no money"). I also can't find anything that says his truck cost 60k....in fact I can't find any truck that costs that much, MSRP on a 2022 F-150 is about half that (and new cars are expensive right now).

He had a job at a Wendy's around the time of the shooting, which pays about 350 a week, which with a little saving could easily add up to the cost of the weapons he bought. Additionally, he would have gotten a tax refund a few weeks ago, and as anyone who's worked food service knows, when that's your only job you get most/all of your federal income taxes back in your refund, so he would have gotten a decent amount of cash (I think I got about 2 grand back, but it's been years since I was at the tax bracket so I'm not sure).

I don't find his appearant financial situation at all suspicious.

Dude....MOST trucks are over $40,000 now. Ford F150's regularly get over $60k and as high as $85k. $60,000 for a truck is not even top tier level so much as just kinda average work truck with options.

Definitely not a 60k truck.
My buddy has a 2020 GMC and it was barley that much, he had a 2008 150, which is not that much

Huh, Google seems to have steered me wrong then, when I checked it said MSRP was about 30k.
2022 Ford F-150 - Google Search

But checking my local dealer's website, you are correct, for the most part it's 60k or so.

The peak of decorum right here. Remember: These people have no standards, only victory in mind. All else is secondary.

Even if you believe Abbott bears some responsibility for this, as many dems have been claiming (without any basis in reality), there is a time and place for that line of attack. A press conference discussing a mass shooting isn't it. It'll play well on Twitter, but unfortunately for O'Rouke he's not running for the governorship of Twitter, he's running for office in Texas and this won't work out. He might well be the stupidest, most craven, social media brain poisoned, unprincipled hack, in party full of stupid, craven, unprincipled brain poisoned hacks.

Plus it was on live television for the world to see the stupidity of the dumbass from El Paso while Abbott was cool, calm, collected.
 
"Twitter politics" pretty much explains the entire new wave of woke crypto socialist technocrats of the Democratic Party. They think twitter simping translates directly into votes.

CNN hard at work to milk the tragedy as hard as they can
