Allow this to serve as your daily reminder that the part of “Conservative values” — that claims to be built on the notion of good old fashioned respect and family values and all that jazz — are actually nothing more than a big pile of disrespectful, autocratic, racist, bigoted, hateful dictator wannabes whose only real “value” consists of “My way or the highway.”
Hell, they can’t even drum up some halfway decent respect for the President of the United States, ON Presidents’ Day.
For the part of people who spent four years screeching from the top of their lungs, from every rooftop that would have them, “He’s your president whether you like it or not!” — they sure don’t seem to realize or accept that Joe Biden is their president… Whether they like it or not.
Today is Presidents’ Day in the United States — It’s officially President George Washington’s birthday, but it’s celebrated as a day “to honor all persons who served in the office of president of the United States.”
Now, that includes Donald J. Trump, whether we like it or not, and President Joe Biden, whether they like it or not.

But the GOP once again seems to believe that the rules don’t apply to them.
Early this morning, the Republican National Committee sent out a tweet marking Presidents’ Day, in which they shamelessly disrespected the man who is actually the President of the United States.
Happy Presidents’ Day! pic.twitter.com/8lanpKXO10

It’s worth noting here that not one, but two of the former presidents the GOP “honored” in their nasty, childish tweet have legitimately been impeached from the office of the US President.
So, in their eyes, Donald Trump and Richard freaking Nixon are worth a mention and some praise, but not the man who’s currently trying to dig us out of the four-year-long trenches that were Trump’s presidential term.
The comments went as you’d expect:

Putting Nixon and trump up there is a BOLD some might say hilarious move.

The best part is you had to pick 8 of the best Republican presidents and you picked two who were impeached and two who were one term.
