Yesterday:

Eric Schmitt
[March 19, 2025]
Every single Democrat should be asked, on the record, to condemn the Tesla attacks.

Squirrel!

Some of the responses to Eric Schmitt (r):

When people feel helpless, threatened, bullied and see their government being destroyed by a mentally ill billionaire and have no other recourse to fight what is happening other than to strike out at the closest thing representing him. Hold an in person town hall so there is someone to complain to. As a democrat I do not condone damaging the personal property of others nor do I condone the destruction being perpetrated by Musk, Trump, his cabinet and the republicans in the house and senate. and in state government. The history of women, and people of color, the protection of the disabled and the trampling of the rights of the LGBTQA+ community cannot be tolerated. White cisgender males have caused the majority of the trouble in the world. You do not know who you are dealing with in those you are trying to displace and disparage. We will stand up and we will fight to retain our rights, You will not win, There is NOT a mandate. Do not underestimate us. Just who do you people think you are? Trump is a traitor and should be impeached. Be a human being. Do unto others what you would have done unto you. Trump nor Musk nor you are kings. Government is not a business but is a service organization for WE THE PEOPLE. How much money and power is enough? SHAME ON YOU.

Every Republican should be asked in record to condemn trump and musk.

80% of America voted for trump. And we knew what he wanted to do. And we all want this

100% condone Trump and Musk. Keep up the good work

That explains so much, just not what they think.

Every Republican should denounce the insurrection on the United States Capital that beat police officers.

They call it “tourism”.

You first. Condemn J6 and the pardons first. I’ll wait…..

Just like every Republican should condemn January 6, 2021.

Every single republican should be asked, on the record, to condemn the January 6th attack on the capitol.

Every Republican Senator should be asked, how are you standing up to the dictator? How are you standing up to democracy? How are you standing up to the constitution? How are you doing what is right for your constituents? Why are you not writing bills to tax the rich and corporations instead of reducing Medicaid, Medicare, and social security? What are you doing to preserve rights?

Are you sure it was an attack, and not just a tourist visit?

Eric Schmitt is a spineless bootlicker. I heard they were just tourists. A day of love!

Every republican should be asking themselves how they are defending Elon musk accessing government data with no clearance and on non-governmental systems.

Until Trump & Musk stop destroying our country and democracy in will support anti-Musk beliefs. Grow a pair Mr. Schmitt and open your entitled eyes. Nothing patriotic about either one, more like Nazi Germany behavior.

Every republican should be asked on the record to condemn slashing Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid and veterans benefits.

We still want a town hall here in Missouri!

Senator Schmitt we’re sick of all the hate and partisan crap. Can you do something or say something that would bring Missourians together?

No. This has been another edition of Short Answers to Simple Questions.

Eric dear how did all the Republicans feel about Jan 6th and now how do they feel about the fact that they have all been pardoned!

I heard it was the Russians which makes it okay

Not until you condemn Trump. Or you can start communicating in Russian.

Your priorities are seriously out of touch.

Car dealerships with a large stock of cars that are rapidly losing value. Eric should say if he’s in favor of insurance fraud.

Wow that’s some amount of crazy you’re showing off.

Where’s your concern for education, Medicare, Medicaid, social security and all of the problems facing Missouri?

How do you go to sleep at night knowing you’re lying to everyone, families, children, and doing everything in your power to hurt them, for your own personal gain? How do you rest, knowing this? How do you lack any human decency and any empathy? How do you live with it?

When you doing a town hall so we can show up and find out what you’ve been doing?

Every republican in office should be asked to condemn the attacks on our personal rights.

It was a love fest right?

Thoughts and prayers

We see what you did there.

Let’s talk about it at your town hall!

Thoughts and prayers!

I love the smell of burning Teslas in the morning, it smells like victory!

Oh, no, think of the insurance companies.

Every republican should be asked on the record why you think it’s alright to direct an insurrection and the death of a vice president and still be allowed to run for office…

Maybe it’s Karma? As he cuts jobs like our veterans lose jobs and innocent people get hurt in this chaos? Gods will?
We will pray

Are you going to condemn the attacks on citizens and medical care and libraries and museums and education and social security and so many other constitutional rights? I’d bet you don’t have the courage to do that!

Not that he would.

Why is your party holding and deporting legal green card holders without due process?

You should be asked, on the record, to condemn a president’s refusal to follow court orders and injunctions, per the checks and balances outlined in our constitution. Now’s your chance. We’re all waiting.

And by the way, why the simping for the Felon’s biggest campaign donor? You know he’s not going to hang out with you, right? How about you spend you time DOING YOUR JOB.

Every republican should be asked not to stand for women and black people being erased from historical documentation.
(I could do this all day. Join me please)

When politicians care more about protecting car lots than high schoolers. F🤬you.

Wow, so are you accusing all your democratic constituents of being complicit in these crimes? To imply 37% of Missouri citizens support illegal actions is a pretty defamatory claim to make as an ELECTED representative.

Well, he is an asshole.

Every single Republican should be asked, on the record, to condemn the attacks on our constitution and democracy!

You are blaming democrats for this? What’s wrong with you

Every single Republican should be asked to condem the pardoning of the January 6th traitors! See how that works?

Every single republican should pull their head out of Trump’s ass.

Bad combover. Check. Too long red tie. Check. Orange spray tan. Check. Tiny hands. Check. Cluelessness. Check. Conviction. Check.

So WHAT about those chem-trails???

Heh.

Oh who hacked this idiot’s page? This honestly cannot be a Senator this stupid, I’m not going to believe it.

Unfortunately.

Fuck off

“Make America Great Again” – in Russian.
