Every time Republicans criticize the extreme and crazy GOP it turns out to be because it's not extreme and crazy enough for them.

Huh.

When I first saw this thread, I thought it was a complaint about actual "sluts" being involved (likely as speakers at the convention) and that the accompanying photo was of one of the "sluts" in question.

They gotta use that shaming language. It doesn't really matter of they're talking about something ethical or unethical, it's just parlance for them.

Anything that's bad is a slut and must be shamed.
