The rule of thumb is that every Republican is literally Hitler. Every single one. (Unless he’s temporarily acting as a useful idiot then, like Pat Buchanan on MSNBC or Bill Kristol at The Bulwark, he can be platformed and even funded, until his useful is done and then he’s Hitler again.)
Outgoing Senator Ben Sasse, hasn’t been nearly useful enough despite his opposition to Trump, to enjoy that kind of deference. And his attempt to retire to run the University of Florida is not going so well.
Sasse says he’s excited to step away from politics – Lincoln Journal-Star
Going to work on a campus to get away from politics is like going to work in Alaska to get away from snow. How oblivious do you have to be to think that’s a sane thing to believe? Ask Ben.
About 300 protesters took over a campus auditorium where U.S. Sen. Ben Sasse was being introduced to students and faculty Monday as the presumptive University of Florida president.
Floors shook inside Emerson Hall as protesters entered the building at 2:53 p.m., stomping and banging on walls, chanting “Hey, hey! Ho, ho! Ben Sasse has got to go.”
Original chant.
Many students attending the protest said they were angry that UF would hire a candidate with a voting record they said doesn’t reflect their points of view.
At least they’re saying the quiet part out loud. But these days, isn’t everyone?
Sasse continued to answer questions provided by UF Student Body President Lauren LeMasters, but found himself overpowered by the protesters’ thundering disapproval in the middle of the student forum.
“They have good rhythm,” Sasse joked about those chanting on the other side of the door.
As protesters climbed the stairs, their cries only got louder, prematurely forcing Sasse and LeMasters out of the ballroom. The open forum for students began at 2:30 p.m., but ended about 15 minutes early.
Student spectators inside joined protesters in the hallway. They continued their protests for 21 minutes before taking over the ballroom at 3:14 p.m.
I give it three weeks.
All this fire and fury is being directed at what is probably the fourth most liberal Senate Republican who is ridiculously mild-mannered and yet, as a student told FOX News, “poses a threat to all students that may be queer or non-men.”
Woke mobs treat liberals this way. And Sasse is absolutely unready for this party.
Protesters moved to the back of the building around 4:15 p.m. to try to catch Sasse leaving. Around 4:20 p.m., Sasse left from a side door escorted by uniformed UF police officers and was spirited away in a police vehicle.
That’s one way to get away from politics.
Non men? Sounds like pajama boys and other male feminists to me.
Yes, almost Nietschean–the “overmen” and the “non-men.”
That too! 😛 Male feminist, pajama-boy, anti American, anti-white simps are definitely non-men untermenschen. Undesirables, too.
They were already doing that “Hey Hey! Ho Ho!” chant back in the 1960s at Berkeley.
Hey Hey! Ho Ho! That Stupid Chant has Got to Go!
It’s so old and tired, and it sucked back then, too.
So sorry, but whats a ‘non men?”
-they’ve got me worried as I am not a man but don’t want to be a “non men.’
I believe the reference is to the German _Untermensch_, which actually translates as subhuman, not as non-man. However, the relevant point is made in either translation. (The Nazis used the term Untermensch or its plural, _Untermenschen_, to refer to a person or a group whom they considered to be inferior.)
Girly men. Left-wing males. Dirtbagocrat males. Pajama-boys. Soy-boys. Sissies.
Oh, you mean Democrats?
Well, that’s tough one since even Supreme Court Justices can’t define what is a woman. What makes it even more confusing is that this amorphous blob of woke plasma can’t differentiate right from wrong or animate from inanimate..
Just keep purring but be ready to run.
That’s a shame. I was always so fond of Sasse and impressed by his ability to ride fences…but not as impressed as he was with himself. Now he can go right or left, or keep riding that pointy fence, with no saddle. He might want to open his eyes for a while, though, and perhaps notice that things have changed in America. No one is winning anymore by pretending to reconcile the impossible opposites. This is the world of hot or cold. .Lukewarm makes you an enemy to both sides.
Bill Maher is now awake enough to reject wokism. as just another form of presentism. He deserves much credit for introducing the term “presentism” to the popular lexicon since virtually everything the left says is rank presentism.
The very ground is moving under our feet. The left no longer enjoys the majority of black support. This necessarily means that cheating to win elections will become an ever greater necessity for them.
Presentism. Hm. Fads.
Yes, cheating is the only way lefties can impose their ideology and politicians at this point.
Non-men?
What’s a man?
Yeah, they slipped up with the “non-men” expression, since it presumes the existence of men, which they have been denying.
Kagan and Sotomayor.
Let Sasse and the leftist students stew in their own cesspool of hate and intolerance
Yes I do. It’s a D-Bag party membership requirement, along with skanky pink haired females in flannel shirts and mullet haircuts..
