He’s loving the negative reaction, reposting criticism (including from the Auschwitz Memorial) on his Twitter account. Another recent Langford post: “Well, well, well… Leftist Jews money laundering !🧼💰” Given California Democrats’ already huge advantage in the governor’s race, they may well be celebrating the idea of going up against this bigoted troll in the general election. ---

That’s risky. A bigoted troll got elected president twice. When I click on the link in the OP, I get a message that the page does not exist. We know Musk has no problems with such behavior, so perhaps the bigoted coward who posted it in the first place removed it. ---

California has a jungle primary; this guy isn’t going to make top-two, not with that haircut. Obvious troll is obvious. ---

Well, if he’s willing to put them both in the same general area, I can adjust my aim a bit (now, where did I put those old work boots?). ---

> [@Monty](#): > > A bigoted troll got elected president twice. Langford is a relative unknown and lacks a cult following. Semi-hilariously, Twitter blurred out the image in the OP and put a “Graphic Content” label on it. It’s OK to click on it and see it in all its glory, as long as you’re warned first. If Langford had, for instance, called for Bernie Sanders to be sent to a concentration camp, Twitter might’ve suspended his account. But probably not. ---

He looks like he started losing his hair when he was about 10 years old, which would ordinarily illicit some sympathy from me, but not in this case. He seems quite practiced with the combover, which never fools anyone, you know. ---
