The most Republican accident ever

An ex republican congressman, after being convicted of tax fraud, is paralyzed by falling off a horse while playing polo. And he starts a go-fund-me.

Can you think of a more Republican thing than that?

Only if he blamed an illegal immigrant for him falling off that horse.

Do we know where the horse is from? Was it an Arabian?

You people are so cynical; don’t you realize:

[From the Gofundme which has raised $320,000 out of a $2.5 million goal:] For a man who has dedicated his life to helping others, we now humbly ask that you give generously to help him.

What, he can’t pull himself up by his own bootstraps?

Republicans told me that the American health care system is the best in the world, so what does he need a gofundme for?

ETA: Oh, Joy! He was convicted of tax fraud!

[How did I miss that in the OP? Time for an eye exam ;-)]

On behalf of New York, I want to apologize to America for sending you Donald Trump, George Santos, Rudy Giuliani, and now Michael Grimm. In our defense, we didn’t want them to stay here.

As someone from Indiana, I want to take this opportunity to apologize for Mike Pence and Dan Quayle

As someone from Washington, I want to apologize for Ted Bundy.

(He was actually once an assistant to the Chairman of the Washington State Republican Party, so I think he counts.)

I’m in Tennessee. I apologize for Marsha Blackburn and Scott Dejarlais, the pro life doctor that got his patient pregnant and made her get an abortion.

As a former Wisconsinite, I apologize for Joe McCarthy and Bill Proxmire.

And maybe Ed Gein.

You can toss in the DC Snipers (who actually started their spree here in Tacoma). I’d include Tim Eyman, but he’s more of an internal shame.

I am sure we have lots of awful people coming out of the state, they don’t strike me as Republican though.

I heard that asshole on the radio this morning (NPR) talking about the initiatives that (fortunately) mostly failed in this election. Ugh. The rest of the country, you are welcome that we keep that shit local.

I can contribute Gov. De Santis and Florida Man. Plus 30 EC votes for trump.

Is that enough for one state to atone for or do I need to go on? :wink: :crazy_face:

Actually, we have to thank Pence and Quayle, who Pence consulted in January 2021, for the fact that Trump didn’t overturn the 2020 election. When Pence asked, Quayle insisted that the VP couldn’t halt or set aside the count of electoral votes.

Of course, now that we’re going to have a second Trump presidency anyway, and they’ve had four years to prepare for it, maybe it would have been better in the long run to let him muddle through the second four right away.

Oh,well.

:slightly_smiling_face:
I’m sure he can hire a groom to do it for him.

Polo being a rather upper-crust sport, I’d want to see a statement of his assets and liabilities before I tossed a dime into a GoFundMe for him.

Keystoner (heh heh) here. I apologize for Scott Perry, Dave MCCormick, and (on occasion) Jon Fetterman.

On behalf of the Show Me state (Missouri for the non-US folks), we are very sorry for Josh Hawley and Rush Limbaugh.
