Stupid Republican idea of the day

You say that like there’s just one.

La Cage aux Foll(i)es?

Pass the snakes! Trump spirtual/religious/bullshit advisor:

“We got a duck season, a deer season, but we don’t have a flu season,” she said in a Facebook video posted last week that’s making headlines. “And don’t receive it when somebody threatens you with, ‘Everyone’s getting the flu!’”
She went on: “Jesus himself gave us the flu shot. He redeemed us from the curse of flu.”

Everybody knows its duck season and rabbit season. Clearly, this woman missed out on the classical culture afforded by Chuck Jones and Tex Avery. What a maroon!

“Christians don’t get the flu because Jesus” will come as a shock to Christians who have actually had the flu at some point in their lives.

Pretty sure she has too. Someone should ask her about that.

Yes, but this one actually gets a name.

I figure whoever arranges these things should arrange it such that the only faces Trump sees during this dog and pony show are either Middle Eastern or black.

What?!?.. No, I’m not. Why?..what have you heard?

You’ve got to be somebody’s Folly and Seward said he never heard of you.

Most assuredly not a stupid idea. Jeff Flake on trump’s “treason” charges.

Truly a watchman on the walls of freedom.

Who voted for every Republican program.

Yup, he only started speaking out against Trump after announcing his retirement. Right up until that moment he was a loyal Republican.

I know all that, guys, but in this context his solid republican credentials give him more traction. It’s like back when you played pick up softball and there was a disputed play. How nice was it when you could say: “But your guy says so.”

It’s METAPHORICAL!

We’re talking about Trump here, so rationality doesn’t come into play. If a formerly respected Republican speaks against the Great Orange One, then obviously someone “got to him” and is probably holding his family hostage.

I’d like to think he still is, but only now recognizes what that truly means.

She didn’t have the flu. She just had Jesus Sneezes.

This isn’t a stupid idea. It’s actually a very good idea. Is it as good as actual paid family leave? No. But it’s better than no leave at all.

Taking the money out of unemployment compensation funds Canada-style wouldn’t work in the US, because we’d have to federalize the unemployment system first. Right now, unemployment is administered solely on the state level, though the Feds kick in a percentage of the funding.

An Ohio Democratic Congressoiaal candidate is alleging that his Republican opponent’s campaign is stalking and harassing his fiancee.

“Exceptionally small number,” hunh? Does that mean 1 or 2 U.S. states? Ms. Manfra is proud that the voting systems of only Pennsylvania and Michigan were successfully penetrated?

She’s way ahead of you. From the same link:

“Sometimes people ask, ‘If God’s medicine works every time, why are there so many believers who are still sick?’ There are two reasons,” Gloria Copeland wrote. “No. 1, because they don’t take the time to plant the Word concerning healing deeply into their hearts. And No. 2, because they don’t do what that Word tells them to do.”

So OBVIOUSLY if you get the flu, you’re not a good enough Christian. For example, I’ll bet you didn’t send Trump’s religious adviser a month’s salary, like you’re supposed to.

If I had any religious inklings at all I’d be praying for her to get the flu soonest.
