Stupid Republican idea of the day

Ok, it’s not totally Republican as he’s not running for anything (at the moment) and his politicval affiliation isn’t mentioned, but wanna bet he’s not a Trump-voter?

'Straight pride' parade organizer accidentally calls own coalition a...

At a crowded city council meeting, where dozens gathered to protest a “straight pride” parade planned to take place in Modesto, Calif., the organizer of the event made an unfortunate gaffe while arguing his case. As he was met with jeers during his time at the podium, the head of the National Straight Pride Coalition said his organization was a “totally peaceful racist group.”

“You attacked us as racists,” Grundmann said, pointing at Ah You. "You pulled the race card to justify attacks against us in that park. When they come, you’re going to turn right around and say we deserved it.

“We haven’t done anything. We’re a totally peaceful racist group.”

Ahem.

QAnon crank Liz Crokin:

“Jeffrey Epstein did not commit suicide,” Crokin said in video clip flagged by Right Wing Watch. “I can guarantee you that 100 percent.”

“If Jeffrey Epstein is dead, I believe that it possibly could have been an execution, and I believe he possibly could have already faced a military tribunal and been executed,” she said.

Crokin added that she also thinks the same thing happened to John McCain and George H.W. Bush.

“So, if he is dead, the good guys, the white hats, they already got all the evidence they needed, they already got all the testimony that they needed to prosecute others and if he is dead, I believe he did go through a military tribunal and was executed,” she continued.

According to Crokin, another possibility is that Epstein’s death was a set up.

“The theory is that the good guys knew that the Clinton mafia would try to take Jeffrey Epstein out. The theory is that the white hats allowed Jeffrey Epstein to be a sitting duck and allowed the Clinton mafia to knock him off in a sting operation so they could bust the Clintons in the act.”

So, the guy who runs against Rep. Maxine Waters and loses badly every time has turned running into a form of wingnut welfare. But that is being threatened so he may have hired crazy liar Jacob Wohl to harass his ex in order to cover for his own crazy antics. It’s quite a mess:

Did a Far-Right Star Recruit Jacob Wohl to Terrorize Women?

President Donald Trump’s Secretary of Agriculture Sonny Perdue cracked a joke that American farmers “whine” about Trump’s trade war with China and got laughs as he intended but also boo’s from audience members that seemingly found it insensitive.

“I had a farmer tell me this in Pennsylvania,” Perdue said at a farm show in Minnesota last Wednesday, according to Agri-Pulse. “He said, ‘What do you call two farmers in a basement?’ I said ‘I don’t know, what do you call them?’”

Perdue said the farmer said: “A whine cellar.”

There was laughter but boo’s came as some members of the crowd did not find Perdue’s joke funny, just two days after China declared it would no longer buy any American agricultural products to hit back at Trump for imposing an additional 10 percent tariff on Chinese goods.

I thoroughly enjoyed reading that link. First off, it said Trump’s petulance-driven tariffs (the trade war he crafted out of thin air) has “led to farmers filing bankruptcy at never-before-seen rates”. That means they’re going bankrupt fast than during the Great Depression.

Oh, and where was the whining farmer in that story from? He’s from North Dakota where 63% of the voters voted for Trump in 2016. Well, maybe you morons shouldn’t’ve voted that way, huh?

Sure, because it’s so implausible for 81-year-olds with brain cancer and 94-year-olds with other health problems to die without somebody assassinating or executing them.

I hope that my life is so full and interesting that, at the age of 94, I will die at the hands of either an assassin or a jealous lover.

I’m going for an assassin HIRED BY a jealous lover. But the assassin falls in love with me,and we run away together.

Well, obviously. I mean, look at Jimmy Carter. He allegedly had some kind of brain cancer, but he continues to build houses with his own hands, and he is just about six weeks from turning 95. So, those other guys clearly were offed.

It’s Obama’s fault. And anyway, things would have been worse under Hillary, because she would have stolen their guns, and forced all of their cows to have abortions.

I laughed so hard, a huge booger shot halfway across my living room. Oddly enough, that’s quite fitting given the subject of this thread.
