Stop capitulating we’re in power now. Stop letting these weenies intimate you.

That march was entirely offensive.

It’s the sort of remark most men would say to themselves.
His mistake was saying it out loud and to someone in the media. He must have forgotten how butthurt millions of Dem women still are after their big election loss. These bitter dems will be seeking new targets to vent their rage on for the next four to eight years.

Thank you. But I guess the Rinos are weeding themselves out with their weenie behavior.

Trump has shown the way.

NEVER EVER EVER apologize.

Don’t back down.

Instead, double down and attack them.

Mock them and use humor to attack. Ridicule them.

Then use groups like The_Donald on Reddit to destroy the leftists on social media.
They’ve already made ground meat of a bunch of Dems.

FR should take note. We need to be weaponized social media instead of Drudge Lite.

If you read the article it is clear that he was under a lot of pressure to resign already because of a scandal involving cybersex and a state computer.

Harden the **** up, men.

Get some backbone.

Stop apologizing every time a whining liberal complains.

When is the last time you heard a liberal apologize for anything?

No remorse from liberals for raping, murder, lying, cheating, stealing or just being sluttish and piggish.

They don’t apologize - they just double down and add a new complaint about being unfairly attacked!

A little context here: This was not the first instance of Kintner coming under scrutiny for inappropriate behavior. In 2016, he was embroiled in a scandal after using a state laptop to trade explicit messages and videos with a stranger. After he masturbated into a webcam, the woman threatened to post the video if he didn’t pay her $4,500. He was eventually fined $1,000 for his illegal use of a state computer, and was urged to resign at the time.

What an idiot. He should have smiled at them and doubled down. Not resigned.

Just another repub suffering from CPS - conservative pussy syndrome. Pretty sad when SJW snowflakes have more courage than you do.

Yes, but in this case, I’d say good riddance.

From the article:

This was not the first instance of Kintner coming under scrutiny for inappropriate behavior. In 2016, he was embroiled in a scandal after using a state laptop to trade explicit messages and videos with a stranger. After he masturbated into a webcam, the woman threatened to post the video if he didn’t pay her $4,500. He was eventually fined $1,000 for his illegal use of a state computer, and was urged to resign at the time.

That’s it? I can’t believe he resigned for that.

Read the whole article. He should have resigned a long time ago.

The unicameral was about to eject him over an earlier issue of having cyber sex on an official computer IN HIS OFFICE!

The tweet was just his little temper tantrum. He resigned before they could kick him out.

So this story is in effect, another example of the mainstream press creating "fake news"?

If not for the HTML, you’d have beaten me by more than the 91 seconds. :)

This guy needs to be gone and I'd suggest professional help!

“He should have resigned a long time ago.”

Good “Republican” that he is, he stuck around long enough to give Big Media an even more useful headline.

Thanks, sounds like he was on the ropes and gave them something to hang him with that didn’t add up to the real reason. Sort of a face saver if you will.

Great, we’ve let Big Media know that 2 out of 3 freepers can be counted on to NOT read the article if the headline is juicy enough against Republicans.

Not the whole truth at least.
