The Left are weird. We have no other way to describe it. They have bizarre fantasies about politics and political figures, and they're not afraid to say those things out loud.
Like Catherine Rampell.
Who thinks Second Gentleman Doug Emhoff is a 'progressive sex symbol.'
Opinion by Catherine Rampell: Doug Emhoff has been called many things in recent years: Second Gentleman. “Goofy dad.” “Crappy Jew.” But perhaps his most appropriate title: Progressive Sex Symbol. https://t.co/sghTweieOS

Egads, woman.
(Honestly, this writer is a little disappointed this wasn't written by Jen Rubin).

Move over, Ryan Gosling. The modern female fantasy is embodied by the man who might soon become our first First Gentleman. Emhoff appears to be a genuine mensch with an impressive career. He’s smitten with his wife and supports her ambitions, as is obvious from his convention speech and their sweet interactions on the campaign trail. But most important for this sexy sobriquet: Emhoff is secure enough with his own masculinity to sometimes prioritize his wife’s ambitions over his own.
This is a guy who prioritized his first wife's ambitions right up until he had an affair with the nanny.
That's sexy?
Okay, Jan.
You're weird.

Very, very weird.
Please stop being so incredibly strange about everything.
— Regs (@r3gulations) August 23, 2024
They're incapable of not being strange.
I guess if you like guys that impregnate their nanny then force them to get an abortion, Emhoff is your guy.

This is what they define as 'masculine' and 'sexy' -- having an affair and shrugging off your responsibility for your unborn child.
You people are not right in you heads if that's your sex symbol. Well, a bit of improvement over Fauci, I guess, give you that.

Oh, we almost forgot about Fauci being a sex symbol too.
Ugh.
Do you think the Harris Campaign threatened to blackball @crampell after she criticized her stupid price-gouging plan so now she's trying to make it up to them? https://t.co/psCzLLlTrD
