We Should Talk About Madison

 

You know, I don't want to destroy a guy in his 20's for being a callow youth who has a lot to learn, but Madison Cawthorn actually is too stupid to be in congress. I don't care about his honey pot wife. I am going to be stoic about his weird homeschool background. I could even pretend his Hitler hero-worship is just a fondness for history, like an interest without being an endorsement. 

He's young, he's dumb, he's enamored with guns. But he keeps trying to take them on airplanes.  He might have brought guns to work in Congress as well, but we know he has brought knives to schools. Why does this man think he always needs to be carrying? I never have, as a resident of Philadelphia and a person who works in Trenton. Is he in neighborhoods less safe than mine? 

He might have done a bad financial thingy. I can't complain about a dipshit with payout money trying to get even richer, but let's be honest--LGB was obviously a scam for the kind of dipshits who fly dirty US flags on their unnecessary big trucks and pretend that is PATRIOT!!(TM) 

And while I too, snicker about his cruise photo, 


This boy is so high he doesn't know where he is. There's nothing about it that makes him the Panti-Christ. 

But it is very true that he is dumb and young and culpable and should not be in congress. He drives without a license because he thinks being a congress person makes it ok.  That is incredibly wrong. He makes bad decisions, and I don't think he's turning that around any time soon. 

UPDATE: You know, this isn't worth a whole new post, but you remember when McCarthy and Scalise called Cawthorn in to dress him down over his allegations that there were Republican coke & sex parties? Yeah. He looked like he was crying coming out of that meeting, and I wonder now if they told him then they were totally gonna end him, but this recent story--an ethics concern that he has an inappropriate relationship with a male staffer who is also his cousin? That looks to me like somebody is definitely trying to end him.

". . . Madison Cawthorn actually is too stupid to be in congress."
Agreed.
He seems to me to be the embodiment
of the aggrieved adolescent fantasy
about how he's gonna run the world
when he's in charge.

they're not sending us their best or brightest. let's face it. there are a fuckton of fascist congresspeople and senators that shouldn't be working at the capitol because they're dumb as a fucking bag of rocks, but for their party, that's not a bug, it's a feature.

I have seen Coke cans removed from park photos; the Great Pyramids squeezed just a little closer together to fit it all in the picture; was working as a computer guy at a law firm when it was decided photographs could no longer be entered into evidence. There's something about those pictures that bothers me. It's too bad the drumpf uck laid claim to them, it could have just as easily claimed they were photoshopped. It doesn't look right, it's too easy.

But yeah, foking little weasel should be in trade-school ...

That boy shouldn't be there. Somebody should help him find a way out. He has a lot of learning to do. I always feel sorry for him.
