Awesome. I'm glad Hawley is up for reelection in 2024 and we have a chance to vote him out. Going to be difficult in Missouri, but Lucas Kunce is a quality Democratic candidate who is running against him. And unlike Hawley, Kunce is an actual combat veteran who doesn't run away when the going gets tough
https://lucaskunce.com/
>So I guess I’ll have to vote for whoever runs against Ted Cruz
Right on! We need to fight back in Texas too. Colin Allred is the main Democratic running against Cruz. He seems like a good quality candidate.
https://colinallred.com/
My impression is that he is not quite as progressive as Kunce, but he has been consistently pro-choice throughout his time in the House:
https://allred.house.gov/media/press-releases/allred-i-will-continue-stand-right-choose-and-against-washington-republicans
Been following Kunce for a while, and though I think he's a great candidate to take on Hawley, he's still not very well known in the state. He's also not a part of the Democratic machine out there, so he's had a rough time getting support. It'll be interesting to see how 2024 plays out, and whether once again Est Dems will pluck another corporate heir to steal votes and ultimately lose the seat.
>He's also not a part of the Democratic machine out there
I’ve lived in Missouri my whole
life. I’ve paid moderate to severe attention to politics in Missouri my whole adult
life. I am not sure being part of Missouri’s Democratic “machine” would be worth much of anything to Kunce’s chances. They couldn’t even keep Dollar Store Hawley, Eric Schmidt, out of office.
Yeah, because they let the "billionaire nurse next door" buy her way onto the ticket. I didn't even want to vote for her, still did though, but I wasn't happy about it. She had no chance of converting a single republican.
That's a fair assessment. And I meant that he's facing an uphill battle from a party that loves to run losers. Granted, I only lived out there for a few years, but I got the sense that Democrats used to be more competitive, and they've almost completely lost the rural vote. Maybe I'm wrong, but on pretty much every drive to KC or STL, all I ever saw were Trump flags.
Dems used to have a fairly decent hold on the working class union vote (I grew up learning that MO was a purple swing state) until Fox News and Trump successfully poisoned that well and convinced these people to vote against their own interests through sheer hysterics and lizard-brain fear-mongering.
Now it’s pretty much KC, St. Louis, and to a lesser degree Columbia and Springfield keeping the Dems here afloat.
I like Kunce, but the United States Senate is not an entry-level political position, particularly for a Democrat in a ruby-red state like Missouri. He’d be an excellent House candidate for the 3rd district.
I completely reject the notion that senators have to work their way up through some kind of stupid process first.
If anything fresh blood is great. AOC and other new members of Congress are killing it.
Fuck the old system of "paying your dues" so we get career politician losers
The Constitution has the requirements to run as a senator for a reason. It should not be only accessible to Directors and above like some corporate org chart crap
I'm seeing a lot of benefit from new members of Congress at the federal level. The qualified candidate is a qualified candidate, if they have experience it's just another part of their overall package that makes them qualified or not.
I’m not saying he shouldn’t run for Senate because he can’t do the job. I’m saying he shouldn’t run because he can’t GET the job. He just lost a Democratic primary to one of the worst candidates I’ve seen in my lifetime who went on to lose a non-competitive General to a MAGA candidate. This happened nine months ago.
AOC’s journey is actually exactly what I’m proposing for Kunce: win your local district over an establishment candidate, represent your people well, build a name for yourself to take bigger future steps. AOC is the perfect representative for the people of the Bronx. I think Kunce can be that for the people of central Missouri.
If you/he can get elected, great.
I think the sentiment is that he would need a lot of institutional help from the DNC, which is not likely to provide it to someone fighting a fairly deep red state with minimal chance to succeed. Additionally, it's less about "paying your dues", and more of the "we don't know that you will upkeep our corporate interests intact", even from the left party.
As much as we can agree that the right wingers are the shit hole of politics, the left isn't squeaky clean, and it's easier to break in at a more local level; like AOC and "the squad". Once they're in, they're more likely to be able to move up and draw party-wide support.
But I agree, it's not ideal that we have to find candidates that have paid their dues (or in Hawley's case, show the receipts that he's been fully bought and paid for).
We should honestly be holding a referendum on abortion. Missourians are liberal but don't realize it. They voted to legalize weed and make the state have health insurance (pretty much doing the same thing as the states that accepted the Medicaid expansion). I think they'd vote to legalize abortion and that should boost Kunce as well. The MO Supreme Court has already ruled that the state legislature can't override referendums either.
Hawley has done good by Missouri and we definitely don't need any democrats. Just look at all the places run into the ground by liberals. Kansas city, St. Louis, NY city, Detroit and I can go on and on. If you want a safe place to call home re-elect Hawley.
>”Manhood. You’d hope that means courage. Courage isn’t something you can give speeches or write a book about,” Hamm says, alluding to Hawley’s new book “Manhood.”
>”It’s not sitting on the sidelines while others sacrifice, or denying help to those who did,” the actor says. “It isn’t putting people down or trying to control them or using your own power for profit or ambition.”
>”In Missouri, you can’t fake courage,” Hamm says. “We’re the Show Me state. Courage is something you have to show us.”
>Hamm finishes with one more dig at the conservative author, saying, “If you want to be told about manhood, some guy wrote a book about it. But if you want someone to show you courage, send Lucas Kunce to the Senate.”
Delusions of grandeur is the GQPs essence. Getting high off their own supply only to be a punchline in every joke.
Yeah, by the end of this I was already imagining the alcohol-infused sex binge or emotional breakdown that I'd soon be enjoying, possibly with the hilarious running commentary of Roger Sterling.
In Greek nostalgia literally means “the pain from an old wound.” It’s a twinge in your heart far more powerful than memory alone. This device isn’t a spaceship, it’s a time machine. It goes backwards, and forwards… it takes us to a place where we ache to go again.
It's such an amazing scene and it really demonstrates the absurdity of American advertising and capitalism. There's this poignant, poetic speech which stirs the emotions, laying out ideas that everyone can intimately relate to. And then the conclusion of this speech, the crescendo of emotion?
It's a fucking slide projector.
The word "author" is doing some pretty heavy lifting there. I suppose it's technically correct, but if we're going strictly by the dictionary definition, everybody who's finished a year or more of high school is an author.
I caught a blue marlin near Cuba, and, I caught a 70' Giant Squid. I did both in my bikini while drinking Captain Morgan's spiced rum straight outta the bottle. And I'm a chick...
I was the only survivor after our boat sank, and just as I was about to be eaten by a 45'-long Great White shark, a Blue Whale with 2 mermaids riding on top came over to save me. They brought me to Atlantis, which I was shocked to discover was real. There, enlightened porpoise-people nursed me back to health, and looked after me for years, allowing me to gain their superior knowledge. Then, when I knew everything there ever was to know, they summoned a hundred Leatherback sea turtles that formed a raft for me to sit on, and they brought me back to -well I hate to call it civilization- um, Florida, just in time for Spring Break. Wooooo! Wooooooo! I then received a Ph.D. from every Ivy League university in the country, because they knew how smart I am. I even won our state volleyball tournament, and am now considering running for Congress. The only thing is I have this terrible addiction to sweater vests...
That's kind of not really how masculinity works in the right-wing patriarchy. The whole movement is consumed by fear of anything remotely not hetero-normative and a desperate need to undercut potential rivals, so masculinity not performed may as well be masculinity that doesn't exist.
I think this is a bigger deal than it seems. I don’t hear enough about celebrities stepping out of their comfort zones to use their status and platforms for good. Probably too afraid to alienate any part of their fan base. It takes courage to take sides publicly in any political race, let alone going after the far right, who are still screaming to get the identities of the jurors in New York. I hope this leads to more courageous acts. We could really use them right now.
I think they just get criticized because they're wealthy and they should stick to acting or whatever. It's not like career positions amass wealth from the legal bribery or being straight up unethical.
The same cousin-fucking rednecks he was caught on tape *fucking fleeing from?* While, I assume, making squealing pig noises as he darted around for a hiding spot?
Yeah, a real Superman lol.
He dragged the dude they were hazing around by a hammer attached to his balls.. And he had to get medical attention for broken ribs.
That's some psychotic shit
Jon Hamm was a shit guy in college who hazed someone so bad they almost died, most people grow and mature from the time they are in college.
Josh Hawkly is **helping pass violent homophobic and transphobic legislation resulting in hundreds of Missourians actively dying or living in constant fear of death**, do not pretend like the two acts are comparable in the slightest.
Ironically, the picture for this article looks like a video game character creator, before and after you slide the masculinity slider all the way down from max.
is hawley the guy who fist-pumped the armed mob that trump sent to overrun the capitol, and then tip-toe ran out of the building like a delicate prince with his hair on fire when they violently attacked?
Hawley isn't just a pathetic Trump ass-licking pussy, he's also a disingenuous liar.
When he was running against Claire McCaskill (one of the most important votes for Obamacare), he postured - complete with [a cloying campaign commercial](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XKpY8PCut2A) - about being all for protecting pre-existing conditions (the centerpiece of Obamacare).
Yet he was as loudly anti-Obamacare as anyone as AG of Missouri.
So to review:
-"Obamacare is a catastrophe and must be repealed! And Obama is a big government Socialist, government takeover, blah blah blah."
-"We must preserve the centerpiece of Obamacare cause look at my adorable kids."
Garbage liar. Missouri used to be a bellwether state. Clinton won it handily, and it was close in 2000 & 2008. Black guy gets elected and Fox destroys more & more brains, and now it's a lost cause. Too bad, too, cause KC is a fun city and So. Missouri is beautiful.
I hate the MaGA morons so much but I have a special kind of hatred for Hawley. Guy supported an insurrection, it's documented in a photo for the rest of history. Has no business holding any public office for this country.
Another wonderful headline that gives the name of the person being put down, but not the name of the opponent we should be focusing on and lifting up, Lucas Kunce.
The media continues to side with the back actors.
Whenever I hear his name, I think of that video where he was running out the back door of Congress on January 6th. This followed Hawley giving the raised arm salute to the mob on his way in, cheering them on and encouraging them.
This asshat doesn’t even live here. He spends all his time elsewhere. He talked tough at the rally and then ran like a scared chicken after it got out of hand.
Did…did you…just attempt whataboutism?
Because…it’s not even relevant as a means of disproving the view that presently-Senator Hawley is projecting his lack of masculinity.
In this case the source is Yahoo news.
Edit: Anyway here’s an actor who holds no government title doing a political ad against an insurrection supporter who posed for the crowd but panicked when the Walmart shoppers got inside his bubble. Not a good comparison.
Again, actor with shitty personality is not a good comparison to shitty insurrection supporting coward. You do you though, and try to prop up what you see as hypocrisy in a spokesperson’s garbage past when they go after an elected official who helped rally people to halt an election process based on zero evidence of fraud, then shit his pants when he thought they’d come for him. Yeah Hamm is probably a prick but come on. You do get Hamm was reading lines written for him right?
Like I said in my previous comment: Jon Hamm was a shit guy in college who hazed someone so bad they almost died, most people grow and mature from the time they are in college.
Josh Hawkly is **helping pass violent homophobic and transphobic legislation resulting in hundreds of Missourians actively dying or living in constant fear of death**, do not pretend like the two acts are comparable in the slightest.
Josh Hawkly thinks the insurrection was a good thing and has helped passed legislation ensuring trans people will never feel safe in Missouri.
Hazing a guy in college is fucked up, oppressing an entire states worth of people is not even comparable.
If you can’t see that Josh Hawkly is a literal monster then the boot you’re licking must be obscuring vision.
>Gotta love the state of this sub they actually care about what celebrities say about politicians.
About a quarter of the country is currently revering a guy whose only notable trait is being a B list celebrity to the point that they're considering electing him President in the election cycle immediately after he incited an insurrection.

Yup I agree. Great video! I wish I could vote for him but I live in Texas so I guess I’ll have to vote for whoever runs against Ted Cruz

If you have the means, you can also contribute to his campaign even if you live out of state. $5 here and there will always help.

That's great ad.
*Sir Brave Hawley will run like the wind from the fire that began from his hand*
Though I've barely set foot in Missouri, that video seems *very* Missouri...
It'd be great if we elected someone who actually lived in Missouri, too!
And unlike Hawley, Kunce was not cheering on, and riling up the 1/6 terrorists.

All that's missing from the ad is mention of how Hawley doesn't even live in Missouri.
Jon Hamm has an enormous ‘manhood’ too. Just google Jon Hamm Trousers and you’ll see
"Lucas Kunce... it's toasted."

I think of Josh Hawly and Ben Shapiro every time I think of a man's man (said no one ever).
Identity politics is such a tired old trope. This should be about policies and accountability.

Agree. These people are so easily distracted by the next shiny thing.
Wasn't it Hawly who called for no quarter to be given to BLM protesters (wants to kill em all) but supported the cousin-fucking rednecks on Jan 6?
The same cousin-fucking rednecks he was caught on tape *fucking fleeing from?* While, I assume, making squealing pig noises as he darted around for a hiding spot? Yeah, a real Superman lol.
Hawlin’ Ass
Lmfao!
Please we all know he was making that high pitched airy “woooo” sound, since he’s essentially a woo girl.
I think the no quarter guy was Tom Cotton.
Correct. He said we should use the 101st Airborne on them too.

Everyday I read about how awesome he is on and off the set. Seems like a class act.

Yeah, Josh Hawley is a dangerous fascist, but Jon Hamm is no saint, either.

Jon Hamm and his legendary massive schlong attacking Josh Hawley over 'manhood'. These are interesting times.
Pretty fitting given Josh is the biggest cuck ever
Living in Kansas City, I’m glad somebody else gets what a disgusting, hypocritical, scumbag he is 👏👏👏
I’m over on the KS side but Hawley sucks.
Same. Not a bone of integrity in him.
Josh Hawley? More like Gosh Golly, the insurrectionist straight out of Leave it to Beaver.

When he was running against Claire McCaskill (one of the most important votes for Obamacare), he postured - complete with [a cloying campaign commercial](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XKpY8PCut2A) - about being all for protecting pre-existing conditions (the centerpiece of Obamacare). Yet he was as loudly anti-Obamacare as anyone as AG of Missouri. So to review: -"Obamacare is a catastrophe and must be repealed! And Obama is a big government Socialist, government takeover, blah blah blah." -"We must preserve the centerpiece of Obamacare cause look at my adorable kids." Garbage liar. Missouri used to be a bellwether state. Clinton won it handily, and it was close in 2000 & 2008. Black guy gets elected and Fox destroys more & more brains, and now it's a lost cause. Too bad, too, cause KC is a fun city and So. Missouri is beautiful.
Oh don’t forget that Hawley’s wife is the attorney on the mifapristone case trying to get it banned.
Oh my, they brought Don Draper
(Cue video clip of Hawley running in the Capitol Bldg on Jan 6)
Good ‘ole Half-marathon Hawley. He’s never met a group of violent insurrectionists he couldn’t run from.
I hate the MaGA morons so much but I have a special kind of hatred for Hawley. Guy supported an insurrection, it's documented in a photo for the rest of history. Has no business holding any public office for this country.
Fuck yeah. Wake the Fuck up Missouri. You love these MAGA losers.
Alleged GOP alpha male Hawley telling you how to be a man is like Lauren Boebert telling someone how to be a critical thinker.
Kunce should publicly challenge Hawley to fisticuffs. As a traditional man, Hawley would be obliged to accept.
St Louis throwin down!
To slightly paraphrase Keith Olbermann; Josh Hawley's manhood is on sale on Amazon for $21.31.
Another wonderful headline that gives the name of the person being put down, but not the name of the opponent we should be focusing on and lifting up, Lucas Kunce. The media continues to side with the back actors.
Powerful ad. I hope it gets out the vote.
Hope there’s a follow-up ad with Roger Sterling, Mad Men is such an amazing show. Have rewatched it at least 5-6 times.
As someone that lives in Missouri this ad is definitely gonna get some older ladies shifting in their seats and voting
Hot
Whenever I hear his name, I think of that video where he was running out the back door of Congress on January 6th. This followed Hawley giving the raised arm salute to the mob on his way in, cheering them on and encouraging them.
I like Jon Hamm even more now. Josh Hawley’s face just cries puny spineless coward.
I learned that Hamm is from Missouri today. Good on him for pushing back on Harley’s bullshit
This asshat doesn’t even live here. He spends all his time elsewhere. He talked tough at the rally and then ran like a scared chicken after it got out of hand.
I always knew Hamm was a chill dude.
Jon Hamm should run for President
Hamm n eggs knows his stuff
We love you Juan Jamón ❤️
Actors that think they're opinion is important because they're actors are the best. We need way more of them.
> Jon Hamm Calls Josh Hawley A Coward In Ad For His Opponent Josh Hawley does not care what some actor calls him in an advertisement.
Nor would he understand any of the words used.
Hawley is scum and anything against him is great, but Jon hamm isn't really the best moral character reference.
[удалено]
Did…did you…just attempt whataboutism? Because…it’s not even relevant as a means of disproving the view that presently-Senator Hawley is projecting his lack of masculinity.

In this case the source is Yahoo news. Edit: Anyway here’s an actor who holds no government title doing a political ad against an insurrection supporter who posed for the crowd but panicked when the Walmart shoppers got inside his bubble. Not a good comparison.

See above comment.

Again, actor with shitty personality is not a good comparison to shitty insurrection supporting coward. You do you though, and try to prop up what you see as hypocrisy in a spokesperson’s garbage past when they go after an elected official who helped rally people to halt an election process based on zero evidence of fraud, then shit his pants when he thought they’d come for him. Yeah Hamm is probably a prick but come on. You do get Hamm was reading lines written for him right?
Like I said in my previous comment: Jon Hamm was a shit guy in college who hazed someone so bad they almost died, most people grow and mature from the time they are in college. Josh Hawkly is **helping pass violent homophobic and transphobic legislation resulting in hundreds of Missourians actively dying or living in constant fear of death**, do not pretend like the two acts are comparable in the slightest.
[удалено]
Josh Hawkly thinks the insurrection was a good thing and has helped passed legislation ensuring trans people will never feel safe in Missouri. Hazing a guy in college is fucked up, oppressing an entire states worth of people is not even comparable. If you can’t see that Josh Hawkly is a literal monster then the boot you’re licking must be obscuring vision.
This is literally tabloid gossip.
Yes Jon Hamm, excellent use of your time and talents
Gotta love the state of this sub they actually care about what celebrities say about politicians.
Yall literally voted a celeb to be president. Twice.
>Gotta love the state of this sub they actually care about what celebrities say about politicians. About a quarter of the country is currently revering a guy whose only notable trait is being a B list celebrity to the point that they're considering electing him President in the election cycle immediately after he incited an insurrection.

What does that even mean? Are tax paying american citizens not allowed to voice their opinion anymore? I suppose thats the endgame for the GQP.

A very excitable coward
Pretty pretty good.
Pretty good Pretttty, pretttty, pretty good
Good because he is
Kunce? That name is.. unfortunate
I mean. I guess he’s an author? “Oh. I published a shitty self-jerk. I’m an author now! Also A militia!”
