Today is Monday, December 5, 2022, the eve of the pivotal runoff election in Georgia tomorrow between an ordained pastor, Raphael Warnock, and a deluded, brain-damaged candidate who doesn’t even live in Georgia. I seriously doubt that this candidate, Herschel Walker, who compared werewolves to vampires in an outrageous campaign speech recently, will be voted into office. Georgians cannot be that stupid, I believe. They realize how significant this election is and how important it is that Democrats have a slight edge in the Senate. The werewolf vs. vampire comment made by Walker was skewered by former President Barack Obama who made fun of Walker while campaigning for Warnock. Obama laced into the abortion-providing candidate, saying, “Mr. Walker has been talking about issues that are of great importance to the people of Georgia, like whether it’s better to be a vampire or a werewolf. This is a debate that I must confess I once had myself. . . when I was seven. Then I grew up.” The crowd roared its approval of the former President’s dissing of the candidate’s ridiculous comments. In the inarticulate candidate’s defense, Walker claims his comments were taken out of context by the former commander-in-chief. Walker actually believes his remarks “had a deeper meaning,” but I wager that no one could actually tell me what that deeper meaning really is. It’s lost in the fog of comparing one kind of monster with another one in Walker’s rant to supporters in McDonough, Georgia, last month. That’s all anyone does hear in his insane comments.
Making more of an ass of himself, Walker continues to put his very large foot in his mouth with more outrageous comments never been heard before in a candidate for office of the Senate. His most recent gaffe has gone viral in which he spoke at a campaign rally in Loganville, Georgia, on December 4. In an online article for The Spun, written by Matt Audilet, entitled “Herschel Walker’s Disturbing Pronouns Comment Going Viral.” This embarrassing moment was captured during the rally when he spoke passionately about the military and then dropped this zinger: “what the heck is a pronoun?” The entire puzzling quote is this: “I told you early on that they said there was peace through strength, and our strength is our great military. But now they’re bringing pronouns into our military, they’re bringing wokeness into our military. I don’t even know what the heck is a pronoun, I can tell you that. I’m sick and tired of this pronoun stuff. What I want our military men and women to do is to be at war fighting.”
The comment about not knowing what a pronoun is triggered a Twitter response in which many users condemned the clueless candidate for his ignorance about something that is taught in elementary school. One user said, “3rd graders are more qualified to run for office than Herschel Walker.” Another user said, “Every time I hear Herschel Walker speak, my IQ drops.” That’s a great comment, I feel.
Let this supremely important election tomorrow signal the end of Herschel Walker’s political career. Another fucking reason to reject this significantly unqualified candidate for higher office is to give the Constitution-terminating asshole in Mar-a-Lago a crushing defeat that will forever weaken him. It’s Dumpf who has hand-picked this nutty candidate for a Senate seat only because, as I’ve found out from Chris Hayes’s program tonight, the former gridiron star appeared on the Orange-Haired The Apprentice program, which I’m proud to say that I never watched. What a sorry reason to select someone for such a lofty position! Dumpf needs to lose again in Georgia, no doubt about it!
As for that weakened occupant of that Florida manse, a wonderful op-ed appears online in The Kansas City Star that urges the entire repugnican party to dump Dumpf in the editorial entitled “After Constitution idiocy, Trump is weaker than ever. GOP, dump this loser for good.”
The editorial begins with a question for Missouri and Kansas Republican leaders: “Aren’t you sick of being scared of whatever idiocy Donald Trump is going to drag you into next?”
The editorial board answers its own question with, “Of course you are.” Then the news outlet outlines the latest vocal outrage made by the former president – calling for the “termination” of the U.S. Constitution this weekend. Then the board describes this outrage as “the latest embarrassing temper tantrum in his two-year clown show after losing the 2020 election by more than 7 million votes.”
Now the editorial board asks a second easy question: “Why on Earth aren’t you coming together as a party and taking the chance to formally renounce this historic loser once and for all?”
Then the editorial board says the single-term president hasn’t been in a weaker position since “Rupert Murdoch decided to put the full force of the Fox News machine behind his campaign in 2016.” Though the election is still two years away, the board says “the Republican Party will never have a better chance, or more time, to rehab and forge a new face of what it has to offer to the American public.”
At one point, the editorial makes the rational conclusion that if we chuck the Constitution, “we won’t have a United States any longer.” It goes on to wonder “how many more ways will Republicans let the man who famously hugged every American flag he came across continue to trash the cherished institutions of the country he claims to love more than any other person alive?” As of this writing, it seems that repugnicans will not alter their position in allowing this subhuman to continue to demolish sacred American institutions before denouncing him, once and for all!
Finally, the editorial ends on an urgent appeal to “Republicans to unite and take down the cruel, mercurial Big Bad who’s been holding you all hostage for more than six years now. . . . End Donald Trump’s political story once and for all.” Will these spineless politicians heed the call here or continue to allow a criminal to get away with murder – in the metaphorical sense?
So tomorrow will be a big day. I will definitely follow the election with bated breath. I hope I have good news to report to you tomorrow night if a winner emerges early on.
Stay safe and be well.
