    That’s definitely the impression I get. We’ve got Republicans explicitly saying that their goal is to appeal to creeps:

    the Trump campaign seems stuck in the strategy they had been counting on for months against Biden: demoralize Democrat voters so they stay at home while turning out the dirtbag vote with an overtly misogynist, trolling-based campaign. Rep. Matt Gaetz, R-Fla., explained the theory that they could get creepy dudes of every race with these tactics: “For every ‘Karen’ we lose, there is a ‘Julio’ and a ‘Jamal’ ready to sign up for the MAGA movement.”

      How can they say this stuff without questioning themselves? Even if they want to be evil you’d think they’d have the awareness to judge themselves as unappealing.
