This is how you fight back. Expose the hypocrisy.

There ya go. Seems like Republicans are learning how to play the game.

Yes, if voter ID requirement is not acceptable, let’s see all these folks drop it for their woke businesses.

you think “exposing” hypocrisy is fighting back?

lol

You think these people give two phuks about hypcrisy, lying or whatever?

this is not fighting back or winning.

It reminds me of threads on FR where the media goes after a conservative and all the comments are “Well when so and so did it they didn't say anything because he/she is a dem”

and??

where does that get us?

How about Rubio or someone in GA who has power work to GET THE F*** MEMBERSHIP ENDED?

How about fighting like you want to win instead of spouting off meaningless bullshit to the left?

I’d like to move forward bankrupting these people, but this was a decent step for the GOP. Usually the GOP just offers up a Milton Friedman lecture about free markets or something when an American institution is trashing America.

Stop screaming at people who are on your side.

If I were in charge of the club, I’d revoke the commissioner’s membership and offer no refund.

Somebody needs to write Rubio a letter asking him to stop enticing illegal aliens with promises of amnesty.

How inclusive is the Augusta Golf Club? I would guess that it isn’t and that is why Marco Rubio brought it up.

Rubio has not been on our side since his Gang of Amnesty activities.

Rubio learned how to troll via Trump and Cruz. He’s really catching on!

People get all woo-woo about hypocrisy when they should just embrace it.

I’m guessing they have made strides. Condoleezza Rice is or was a member. I suppose that would depend on what your definition of inclusive is. As far as I am concerned it doesn’t matter. If you are going to virtue signal and cancel Georgia then don’t sneak in the back door for a round of golf and drinks in the clubhouse. I’m also fairly sure that members gets some tickets to the Masters which are gold doubloons.

I do. If you know how to play the game, (and apparently you don’t) the trick is to get the loons screaming at him on Twitter and forcing him to give up a membership he probably doesn’t want to give up and exposing him for what he really is.

It is called baiting the left into eating their own. I heartily approve of this.

If CNN had can’t principles, it would move out of Atlanta and perhaps move to Delaware where the voting laws are far more restrictive.

And this is why our party, and movement is in the situation situation it is. People actually think this is fighting back. Talk is cheap, when the chips are down, Republicans will run for cover, most likely with little Marco leading the way.

Agreed. Not only that, but if the American news media had any principles we wouldn’t be hearing this days later from some senator. They should have been asking that question almost as soon as the MLB pulled the plug on Georgia.

In other words they are probably complicit in trying to cover it up.

Can just anybody drive up to the clubhouse at Augusta National or do they need an ID to get onto the grounds?

Asking for a racist friend.

Every team that plays a series in Atlanta should forfeit the game and take a loss if they feel so strongly.
