And I Hear Crickets
So, let’s pretend you’re knee-deep in a sex scandal. And let’s pretend you’re the president. Republicans love sex sandals because they can understand them. They have been cursed by the karma princess for that time Ken Starr went bj-rogue on Bill Clinton, so now wildly perverted sex scandals are a dime a dozen on the red side of the aisle.
So, let’s say you’re president and you need to get attention away from Jeffrey Epstein. What do you do?
Oh, I know. Racism – the GOP calling card.
The only Republican who even came close to condemning Trump’s vile racism on Twitter was Texas Republican Chip Roy, but it doesn’t count because he had a BUT. If you see a sentence with BUT in it, don’t read or believe any of the words that came before it.
Chip Roy worked for John Cornyn, is Ted Cruz’s former chief of staff, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton’s first assistant, and Rick Perry’s ghostwriter for his 2010 book. He gets passed around more than a bong at a Rolling Stones concert.
Last May, Roy single-handedly defeated the $90 billion disaster aid package and received criticism from both sides of the aisle. He’s kinda the new Ron Paul.
So lets say Jeffrey Epstein just isn’t on board with that plan. Then what do you do?
RAINY-DAY MONEY?
Epstein Had Pile of Cash, Diamonds, Foreign Passport in Safe

1That should be COWChip Roy-it’s what he’s full of.
2Here’s a photo of ” The Chipper,” a well-known Texan and Head Fluffer to Texas politicans such as Ted Cruz, John Cornyn and Ken Paxton to name but a few!

3Yes.
Distract the citizens with accusations of “go back” aimed at:
Women
Young women
Young women who’s families are recent immigrants
Then when Trump’s association with Epstein is revealed, and perhaps Trump’s participation in exploiting young women, maybe immigrants trapped in a sex trafficking scheme, the stage is set. It’s the young women who are somehow at fault in the convoluted minds of Trump followers, and the new rally chant becomes “send them back, send them back…”
4Sweet. Republicon outreach 3.0. No breathable air, no potable water and no women. The Cons obviously took a wrong turn on the idea of Utopia path, but they sure wear their hypocrisy jackets with flair.
5And Miss Lindsey chiming in to call the women trump attacked communists. Another dog whistle to the base. Hoping that all this good soldier stuff gets SC voters riled and a replacement senator gets to represent that state.
6Now Playing: “Love It or Leave It: The Sequel” starring The Squad as “The Dixie Chicks”.
7I can believe Hurd hasn’t been heard on this [t]issue.
8Jonathon Hubbert @8,
Will Hurd was on a PBS Newshour discussion about the border, last Friday iirc. You can look it up at the PBS website. Hurd tried to stay in the middle against a Dem. He’s still a Repuke.
The 23rd distinct is pretty gerrymandered, about the largest in the US [550miles long, ~200mi wide], but pop is concentrated near San Antonio red areas, with conservative rural for the rest [even the Hispanics].
I was real disappointed that Capt Gina Ortiz-Jones and Kopser lost to Hurd and Roy [barely], maybe in 2020. GOJ seems to be going for a rematch.

Also, Maj MJ Hegar [TX 31st] already announced against Cornyn for US Senator..

Thank you, Juanita. After the deaths of Ann Richards and Molly Ivins it’s good to know there’s ONE Texan I can respect.
10As my abuelo admonished me: Everything after the but, stinks.
11Defending the country from Russians? Not the GOP. Bye, bye.
