I’m in my bathrobe, 4 cans through a case of Leinie’s, pricing out toupees. Anyone have any boxes they don’t need?— Honest Scott Walker (@HonestScott) November 10, 2018
5 days later and we still haven't seen our governor, have we? Come on Scotty, be a man and come out, come out wherever you are. You're still on the job for the next 8 weeks (sadly).
On the other side, Pete Davidson said a dumb thing on Saturday Night Live last week about GOP House candidate Dan Crenshaw, who wears an eye patch because Crenshaw was shot with an IED while serving our country in Afghanistan. Faux News and other right-wing media responded with typical fauxtrage.
Well, Davidson was back last night to apologize, and was joined by now-Congressman-elect Crenshaw, who took a few shots at Davidson himself. Yes, the "Veterans Day" invocation at the end is a bit preachy, but it's still pretty good.
The best part about it? When SNL and Davidson screws up, THEY OWN IT. Be adults, admit you were over the line and stupid, and OWN IT. And credit Rep.-elect Crenshaw with showing some humanity and humor of his own. I'm not sure who got in touch with who on it, but it's a pretty savvy political move, because we sure don't see a lot of Republican politicians acting like human beings very often these days, and it's hard to dislike the guy when he's willing to go on SNL and handle it this way.
It's a concept the GOP President sure doesn't understand. And I bet that while Rep-elect Crenshaw wasn't happy with what Pete Davidson said about him last week, he's probably more furious that Trump ducked an event in France that honored Americans killed in World War I because of a little rain.
EDIT- And Phil Hands' Sunday cartoon in the Wisconsin State Journal adds more funnies. And a very accurate of the type of lowlife that makes up today's Wisconsin GOP "leaders".
No job, just sold his house, nowhere to live after January 7th. He'll probably have to start looking for an apartment in Waukesha although rents there are climbing. Almost feel sorry for the guy...almost.
ReplyDeleteHe has to find a job. Tonette is likely typing up his resume for him as we speak. And what about the children? One has a startup dedicated to his dad's campaign and the other was in charge of a losing GOP candidate who ran a stomach turningly negative campaign. Only Tonette has job skills and she is over 65. I guess they can live on her social security.
ReplyDeleteScotty can also use his 25 years in the WRS to get a nice bridge for his health care, while keeping his grifter sons on his coverage because of the Obamacare Scotty claims "is failed".
DeleteI think the little guy will be OK. No matter how traumatic his entrance into the "real world" seems to him today.
