Now its getting interesting.

So is Medina Spirit a junkie socialist horse the exemplifies the Liberal decadence of Biden’s America. Or is it a True Blue American horse who it being shut down by fascist liberals for exercising its god given right to take whatever medication it damn well pleases.

I think we finally see the issue that will irrevocably fracture the GOP.

I think Caitlin Jenner running for Governor as a Republican is going to cause major Republican fractures. Can they support a socialist-hating Wall-supporting Republican, or will they refuse to support a trans woman?

They’ll vote for her and claim that Democrats voting against her are the _real_ bigots. Guaranteed.

Of course, the answer is that Medina Spirit is both of these things at the same time. This is Shrodinger’s Horse.

Even money says that when the recall fails, she’ll claim that she planned it that way, by deliberately sucking off votes that would otherwise have gone to Cox.

Of course _I_ know it doesn’t work that way, but does she?

ETA: I _did_ spend some time contemplating whether “sucking off” was the best phrasing choice I could have made, but _ehh_.

Your phrasing is indeed hard to swallow, but I think we can blow it off and wipe away the memory of it. You can’t spit out a gem every time.
