Stupid Republican idea of the day

Trump takes credit for Iran’s release of Americans.

So I’ve been hitting them hard and I think I might have had something to do with it . . . You want to know the truth? It’s a part of my staple thing, I mean, I go crazy when I hear about this, you go absolutely wild because how is it possible?

Trump is going to run a fantasy presidency. (In tandem with his fantasy sports teams.)

In other news, Maine governor Paul LePage took credit for there being no black Oscar nominees.

If that’s really the case, it might explain much about his poor debate showings.

Marco Rubio says he bought a gun on Christmas Eve so he can protect America from ISIS.

Wait, those are different things?

An excellent idea, Mr. Rubio. In fact, I think your talents are wasted running for president; you should take your gun and start walking the coastline to protect us full time.

I bet the first thing his Secret Service detail (when he gets one) does is take it away from him.

I wonder how far it squirts.

Maybe it shoots out one of those flags with the word “BANG!” on it (but in Arabic, of course, so it will deter ISIS).

I occasionally hear liberals called hypocrites because they favor gun control but have armed bodyguards. By the same token, I assume any Republican president will forego any Secret Service protection and just pack a gun wherever he goes.

But who is going to protect America from Rubio?

If he were a real man he’d go to Iraq to do it.

Reports that he shot a fat, red-suited terrorist coming down his chimney have not been verified.

Can you really blame him?

Mike Huckabee says we’ve got to start training the poor as if they were kids or dogs.

Yeah, put those poor folks in time-out and threaten them with a rolled-up newspaper.

The poor don’t cause so much trouble when they know their place.

ETA: I’m astounded this guy was actually a minister.

Clearly, he preached the Gospel of Supply-Side Jesus.

Considering the Huckabee family’s history with dogs I don’t like where this is going.

I’m also a bit concerned he raises children the same way he does dogs.

Donald Trump says that as President he would force Apple to manufacture their goods in the United Sates.

I guess he doesn’t care what the cost of those goods would be to the consumer.

Well, his point is to punish the poor for being poor – so that they will learn to stop doing that.
