Joe Arpaio is running for US Senate seat.

I want to see Arpaio’s long-form psych report.

I think I saw this movie before:

So, if Arpaio does manage to win the Republican primary it will be most likely after a very, very divisive campaign. Then I think that with the outlook of the state losing lots of businesses, and with the minorities activism/vote becoming more active if Arpaio gets the nomination, will sink Arpaio in the general election.

Alexa, buy up ALL the popcorn!

We may have to see it one moore time.

I guess going from “our most controversial candidate is an accused pedophile who got banned from the mall” to “our most controversial candidate is a racist sheriff who ran a concentration camp” is an improvement… right?

Baaaad. :smiley:

That’s funny, and if you came up with it good on ya.

I wish I could claim credit! I got it from ‘Betty Cracker,’ one of the front-pagers at the Balloon Juice blog.

A Google search also turns up Rick Wilson, a GOP political strategist, using it on Twitter, so I have no idea who it originated with.

If you haven’t watched Joe Arpaio get directly asked about his pardon on MSNBC, get the Reddenbacher popped first.

Blocked from the link at work, is there even 1 coherent sentence? I have met him, he is completely and utterly senile.

He’s mostly coherent but he doesn’t at all stray from his talking points of “it was a misdemeanor; same as a barking dog” and “I’m not gonna get into the law/politics of it”. It seemed to be dawning on him that he had admitted he was guilty and so things like “appeals” weren’t going to be a thing anymore.

At the end, regarding Trump’s “shithole” comment, his talking points are both “I don’t know what was said” and “whatever he said, I support the president” which the interviewer reiterated to be clear that Arpaio was saying that NO MATTER what the president said, he supported the president, which Arpaio confirms. The interview ends.

Nosferatu rises again.
