I felt like we needed a thread for just generally stupid people, that are politically related in their stupidity. Stuff that doesn’t fit into moral reprehensible, or nazis, or conspiracy theorists.
I’ll present this yahoo in my locality from today’s news:
TLDR: Local nutcase, and Libertarian candidate for office, was so upset about school mask mandates that he threatened officials from the school system. Of course he got his ass banned from school grounds for a year. Now he is suing them for (pinky to corner of mouth) ONE HUNDRED MILLION DOLLARS! And acting as his own attorney in the suit, despite not being an attorney. I predict some lulz from this one.
Wow. Either that was the most amazing Freudian slip in recorded history or W has comic chops to rival that of John Cleese. I’m going with the former.
I also have to wonder, why the fuck is he speaking in public in the first place? Just why? Fade away dude. This also raises the question of drunk or dementia or both.
Well he was a horrible President and did bad things both foreign and domestic. But if he went full never-Trumper and repeatedly and publicly was part of the movement to reclaim the Republican Party from authoritarianism, I would applaud him for it and would be happy he was able to continue speaking.
But alas, well there’s some indication that he personally feels that way, he has not used his bull pulpit for good. Cheney, arguably a worse human being, has at least on this issue stood on the right side on this issue (possibly to support his daughter, possibly because he just feels its right).
I wondered it while he was campaigning and every moment he was in office too. Watching the jetliner removing he and Laura from Washington during the inauguration in January 2009 was one of the best political moments of my life. Absent being prosecuted for war crimes, or being subject to some horrible curse, I wish he’d just shrivel up and go away forever.
