They’re trying SO hard to get rid of the weird sticking to them. Sorry, guys - it’s what you ARE.

I mean, this is Charlie effing Kirk calling someone else weird. Barely even needs a response.

why is weird the thing that they suddenly get upset about?

they were called nazis, fascists, braindead, closeted homosexuals, homophobic, traitors, idiots, slimy money grabbing parasites... they ignored it all as if they didnt hear it. why did "weird" freak them out so much that they have to deflect it on someone else by calling them weirder, or trying to prove they are not weird? like seriously out of all the insults, why is weird getting under their skin?

The reasoning I've heard is that the Republicans like to think of themselves as "average" or "normal" America. Saying that they don't just really shakes them up.
