The insults are delightfully petty and supremely satisfying.

Those are adjectives. It’s not name calling.

  Meanwhile former president has mocked a disabled journalist and been openly racist and misogynistic.

  Buttigieg said about Vance "He is... odd" and it was enough. It was perfect it felt like a scorch

Accurate too.

They aren't even name calling. Republicans make up names for everything to remove critical thinking, and undermine the other person by invoking hate.

We're just saying we find theyre weird and creepy.

37? times convicted felon, twice impeached former president Donald Trump isn't name calling either.

- I believe the count is 34 felonies for Trump, 1 for Kennedy.

  You're probably thinking "Clerks," but the mistake is understandable. Similar subjects.

Orange Julius, the extremely bizarre racist rapist and his culty base of weird pedophiles who support Dershowitz, Musk, Trump, Matt Gaetz, etc.

Republicans have been name calling and employing underhanded tactics against their opposition for decades. It is about damn time that they get a taste of their own medicine. They don't know how to react because this is the first time it actually happened (as opposed to their delusions that they were always on the defensive).

They're not wrong.

The sad part is since Trump, I've found a lot of right wingers are also acting weird.

They're not even trying to be otherwise. Like even stupid stuff like being obsessed with gas stoves and talking absolute nonsense about induction.

They're just all shouting out nonsense hoping it sticks after being inspired by Trump doing the same

Finally? What about "fascist"?

  Yeah, fascist is so ridiculous and over the top you can just dismiss it.
  
  Weird, you can actually make memes about weird. I've seen a lot of stuff involving the drag last supper. There's more to be done with weird.

I think you might need a slightly stronger platform.

- As opposed to the platform of... insulting disabled people, raping women, illegally using campaign funds to pay hush money to porn stars, blackmailing our allies, and staging insurrections?

- Not a rapist pedophile traitor narcissist con man? Excellent platform.

- Theyd make a 900 page manifesto, but that would be weird

- The actual Democratic party platform should be published during the convention.
