NEW Stupid Republican Idea of the Day (Part 2)

Lauren Boebert ranted on the House floor about how the Democrats are censoring Republican voices, and Jamie Raskin responded with, “We want the whole world to see how the gentlelady from Colorado speaks, in public, as a member of Congress. We want everyone to look at that.”

What is there to say about a sentence that begins this way?

Well, JD, maybe they shouldn’t be using illegal drugs. Ever consider that, Mr Party of Personal Responsibility? I know THIS Democrat isn’t in any danger.

Perhaps not, but he IS stupid enough to think that a $13B piece of military hardware should have massive design changes because of aesthetics.

It’s a big difference.
The island on Ford class carriers is smaller, more outboard and about 140 feet further aft than the island on Nimitz class carriers. It is sized and positioned to allow for more optimum positioning and movement of aircraft so that Ford class carriers can meet a sortie rate 25% higher than Nimitz class carriers."

How can we forget wanting steam catapults not that ‘digital’ stuff after a huge investment in EMALS.

Beyond being a very stable genius.

Trump wouldn’t know a steam catapult from a tea kettle. Someone that is attached to the manufacture of the steam cats put a bug in his ear.

Give Trump a can of gold spray paint and he can fix it right up.

But BILL the gummint for a ginormous design and engineering task and pocket the difference, amirite?

Perhaps he should have an aircraft carrier all his own made out of solid gold. Because that would float so very well. Just a small adjustment to the seacocks, sir,and you can get underway.

He does seem to have a pretty low opinion of his fellow we-are-the-superior-race Trumpists.

B-but…but…her EMALS!

I like it.
Then, instead of boring, straight, runways, you could set up a traffic circle around the island.

Come on, people – it’s Stupid Republican Idea of the Day, not Stupid Trump Idea from a Few Years Ago. Surely a Republican said or did something stupid in the last 48 hours.

Already been done. The HMS Furious after being converted from battlecruiser to aircraft carrier has almost exactly this arrangement.

The picture shows a blimp landing on that shortened afterdeck. Blimps don’t need a long runway.

Also, if we’re going back to olde times, all kinds of was prototyped. Maybe, since Trump was talking about steam power, his thinking has come from the “let’s see if a hotel with triple sets of wings can fly” days?

No way! That’s just an accident waiting to happen. Americans don’t know how to navigate a traffic circle.

A start, MAGA mascot announces run for Kentucky Gov. Didn’t push for indictment of officers, staunchly anti-choice.

And we have a Louisiana state representative who fondly remembers his forty (40) daughters still getting into his lap during deliberations on a typical draconian GQP anti-choice/murder the women and doctors bill.

Two Republican Party employees from Pennsylvania were fired after it was discovered that they’ve been collecting mail in ballots and filling them out. What election fraud?
