The only group of people more annoying than your typical mouth-breathing, chest-thumping, fist-shaking Lefties on Twitter are the smug, snide, former conservative leaders/pundits who decided to make a living around hating one politician. Forget everything they've stood for and supported for years and years (heck decades), all that matters is 'orange man bad'. Well, that and the sweet grift that all too often seems to go hand-in-hand with this new 'movement'.
Seeing Charlie Sykes talking down to Elise Stefanik?
C'mon, man!
Isn't that what Charlie's president likes to say to people when they get out of line?
And speaking of being out of line ...

As you all know, I don't typically use my own tweets but since this is about me ticking him off I should probably include it.
Charlie, I used to really look up to you. Then you completely sold out ... I'm not sure if it's really about Trump or if you just figured out the real money was in hating him.

Totally true.
I looked up to Charlie for a long time. We even followed one another. But ever since Trump came into the picture he's been a different person as far as I'm concerned. And sadly, like so many others on the Right, it feels like he figured out it's far more lucrative to hate Trump.
And hey, don't get me wrong, I'm a capitalist and I totally understand the desire to be successful and make money. I support it as well. Clearly, I write about politics for a living and would like to be successful in my own right.
But this holier-than-thou attitude though with Republicans who are Trump-friendly?
Meh.
It's old.
He tried to fire back at me ...
It's really about Trump. You should read up.

Pretty sure he was making a dig at me similar to the one he made at Elise but ultimately ... meh again.
Thinking I may have hit a little close to home.
Sorry bro, the truth hurts.

Bingo.
Sounds like an answer a misogynist would give.

Hey, I don't want to go that route but ... if the shoe fits.
Wear it.
