MTG wannabe, but less polished, and that’s saying something.

…and not because a bunch of freemason ideologue elitists who got a significant paycheck plus logistical support from the french aristocracy to make the british downright miserable by cutting off a major source of important naval lumber supplies in the new world after a famous agnostic scientist/statesman literally charmed and fucked his way around in their halls of power?

Come on now. I’m a God fearing christian who would even admit all of that unlike those jenkem huffing fundie maniacs.

Brain worms. Just a complete set of brain worms.

Also: WTF with biblical right of self defense?

What I don’t get is why voters in the districts “represented” by clearly unfit people aren’t hopping mad that tax dollars are being wasted paying these do-nothing Congresscritters. The bigoted mouth noises and lack of legislation must really be worth it to this block of voters.

Polished? Maybe a slightly less pumiced foot wart.

Hey now! That crosses a line, for sure.

Lock Haven, PA. Definitely the Alabama part of my home state.

Because with them it’s never about logic, and that’s guaranteed by their platform.

  • Xenophobia/anti-immigration is 100% driven by racism, and the candidate saying the most racist shit gets the racists’ votes.
  • The candidate saying the most 2nd amendment shit will win the ammosexuals’ votes.
  • The holiest sounding candidate protecting the fetuses will win the evangelical vote.
  • The candidate that instills the most fear wins the Law Enforcement crowd.
  • Repeating the Big Lie wins all kinds of Q-nut wacko conspiracy type votes.
  • And behind them all, the candidate who promises lower taxes gets the selfish assholes’ votes AND the superPAC money, ensuring their nonsense gets a prominent place in the media.

They all blur together, of course, but none of their votes come from logic. They only come from one sided campaign rhetoric.

The beauty of the strategy is that a GQP’r never has to keep any of their campaign promises (except for the issues paid for by the PACs.) Everything else they can lie about during their next campaign speech.

Worse, a “moderate” GQPer may accidentally say something that actually makes logical sense and win over a few democrat votes.

Seems like it could be cross-posted in the “ketchup stain fashion” thread :joy:

Oh, I dunno about “they never seem to understand…” because after an armed 1967 Black Panther protest at the California statehouse (probably this picture posted,) ol’ governor Ronnie Reagan sure got motivated to pass the Mulford Act, outlawing open carry of loaded weapons in the state.

I don’t know about chicken coops from where you are, but around here, we cover the coop windows with wire mesh, not glass.
