NEW Stupid Republican Idea of the Day (Part 1)

I submit Sen. Kevin Cramer’s response to the vote today:

Well, it seems to me that being elected by the Electoral College is a threshold where a title like that is probably most appropriate and it’s, I suppose you can say official — if there is such a thing as official president-elect, or anything else–elect. And there’s an inauguration that will swear somebody in and that person will be the president of the United States, but whether you call it that or not, you know, there are legal challenges that are ongoing — not very many — probably not a remedy that would change the outcome but, so, I don’t — again I don’t know how politician refers to another politician, but it does look to me like the big race is really between the inaugural committee and the Justice Department at this point, so we’ll see how the emails turn out.

maybe he should run for Miss South Carolina Teen USA with answers like that.

Also, Sen. Barrasso from Wyoming who thinks “Who is the president-elect?” is a “gotcha question.” Wyomians? Wyomingers? you deserve better.

Senator Kevin Cramer, when asked if Biden is President-elect:
“Well, it seems to me that being elected by the Electoral College is a threshold where a title like that is probably most appropriate and it’s, I suppose you can say official, if there is such a thing as official president-elect, or anything else-elect. And there’s an inauguration that will swear somebody in and that person will be the president of the United States, but whether you call it that or not, you know, there are legal challenges that are ongoing – not very many – probably not a remedy that would change the outcome but, so, I don’t – again I don’t know how politician refers to another politician, but it does look to me like the big race is really between the inaugural committee and the Justice Department at this point, so we’ll see how the emails turn out.”

So, Is Mr. Cramer really a Senator? It’s not at all clear.

Senator? I don’t know, but I don’t think he would pass the Turing test.

Paul Behrends, longtime aide to ex-Congressman Dana Rohrabacher, who was forced to resign from the House Foreign Affairs subcommittee after his connections with Russian operatives was revealed, was found dead on the streets near his home, with an injury to his head. His family says it was an accident, and there were no signs of foul play, but they weren’t there when he died.
Funny, sounds like Seth Rich, but why aren’t the conspiracy theories popping up?

This is for all the Stupid Republicans who aren’t this guy.

I honestly expected Republicans to head for the exits when our national nightmare first began, but (with just a few exceptions) they mostly went all in with President Stable Genius. May they carry him like an albatross forever.

Another brave, brave Republican repudiates Trump on his way out the door. Pathetic.

Yea, him and Jeff Flake can get together for coffee on Tuesdays and chat about how sad Republicans are.

It was McDonalds’ biggest failure. Nobody liked it.

… until they renamed it “McRib”.

Congratulations! You just won the internet!

:rofl:

Update: The Supreme Court refused cert. on Box v. Henderson. This keeps the 7th Circuit’s ruling that Indiana sucks, I mean that Indiana shouldn’t discriminate on the basis of sexual orientation in birth certificates. A win for the good guys.

Show me, indeed. They even had Rudy give testimony.

A House committee on Monday voted 6-3 in favor of the nonbinding resolution, St. Louis Post-Dispatch reported.

The vote followed hours of sometimes contentious public testimony, including from President Donald Trump’s lawyer Rudy Giuliani, who attended on Zoom.

As for “faith” - fortunately, no religious test shall ever be required as a qualification to any office or public trust under the United States. Or something like that.

Reality check, Missouri Republicans: Nobody gives a flying fuck about your opinion of other states’ elections. No. One.

To be fair, the article doesn’t mention Mr. Aguirre’s political party affiliation, but I’m feeling like it’s a safe bet that this is right at home in this thread; this is bizarre and downright scary:

Not just a former police officer, but a former captain.

Not Houston’s proudest hour.

You’d assume this was just a mentally unbalanced individual until you look at the details of that story. It’s mass insanity.

Also:

:thinking:

Sure…

One might argue that their finest hour was when they decided to make him a former captain.
