That’s Kinda Cheeky
My county’s Republican Party sends out emails from their candidate for congress, Pete Olson.
Pete is a big damn buddy of the recently pardoned Dinesh D’Souza, who is not only a convicted felon with no remorse, but also a butthead.
Now here’s part of Pete’s email the local Republican Party Chairman sent out —
Inspired by the turbulent events of post-2016 presidential election America, Dinesh D’Souza’s Death of a Nation reveals an eerie similarity between the situations faced by President Trump now and the situations faced by President Lincoln in 1860. The film demonstrates how Trump can use the example of Lincoln to shut down the Democratic plantation once and for all.”
Here’s a little secret. I live in the most diverse county in the nation. We are edging-up on being a quarter white, a quarter Asian, a quarter black, and a quarter Hispanic.
So maybe the local Republicans might want to steer clear of using words like “planation” when every damn Republican candidate to win the primary in this county is white. Every damn one of them. Not even somebody with a good tan. They all look like they arrived on a damn flight out of Sweden.
They haven’t done a picture of all their candidates together because it’s so damn embarrassing, but here’s their headquarters opening.
And our’s.
And our’s are nicer people, too. Plus, there’s far more ta-tas.
Well, it can be said with certainty about the Republican Party in your County, that they probably won’t be making any Tarzan movies.
1Plantations? Why bring up the 1860’s when we’ve got cages to discuss in 2018.
By the way, putting the names Trump and Lincoln in a sentence that makes sense only works if you’re contrasting the two of them. Comparing them? Roll over Abe.
2Your people are Much better looking!
3I like the two guys wearing cowboy hats in the office. Their Mama never taught them the basic rules of hat wearin’.
4Dumpster D’Souza is trying hard to be the Ed Wood of propaganda, without any of the accidental humor. Perhaps he should name his next effort “Plan 9 From My Butt”

The deplorables have made Lincoln comparisons since the campaign and it’s just as nauseating now as it was then. Soooo I’ll trot this one out one more time.
When a an interviewer asked trump if he thought history would regard him as our greatest President, he said “Of course! Just think of how many tweets it would’ve taken Lincoln to write the Gettysburg Address!
Sad!”
They’d all be plantation owners if they could. The Rethugs have always harbored a thinly disguised platform of racism.
7No longer, attempting to disguise it, they are full on promoting it.
Characterizing the Democratic party as a plantation while claiming the Republicans represent Lincoln is a laughable attempt to change recent history. John Lewis and the other members of the Black Caucus would have plenty to say on that score, if they can stop laughing.
Plantation????
8I will never forget the cover on Time magazine some years ago. It was the opening day of the Democratic National Convention and that photo captured entirely the Democratic party’s diversity. I’ve been trying to find a copy of it ever since. No way can the rethugs ever catch up to them on diversity. Of course, they ain’t interested in it to begin with!
I like your picture a lot more. Except it doesn’t have enough people in it. But I know you’re working on that.
