This week in GOP stupidity

 Ohio junior senator JD Vance, who was also a best selling author for his tome, Hillbilly Elegy, a few years back, is finding out the hard way that some of his past remarks about his running mate, Donald Trump, are being brought forward to remind voters that neither GOP candidate can really be trusted.

Vance drank the stale Trump-ade to become a loyal sycophant, but his past remarks about Trump came to light in recent days. Vance didn't help his cause with some pathetic remarks about VP Kamala Harris, calling her a "childless cat lady". Harris actually has two step-children from husband Doug Emhoff's previous marriage.

But, of course, GOPers can't be bothered to research facts. They'd rather roll in and sling mud.

Colorado crybaby Lauren Gropert introduced an amendment intent on reducing the salary of a Department of the Interior employee to $1 a year, just because this employee "disrespected" Ms. Clouds For Brains.

Gropert is claiming that Melissa Schwartz is a "liberal troll" who should be "living under a bridge", according to an article in Newsweek. Ok, so Gropert was butt-hurt because she got called out for doing what she does best. Nothing. Ms. Schwartz has nothing to worry about. Her salary won't be reduced, but I doubt Gropert will be around too much longer.

Gropert, of course, is projecting. She's the real troll in this case.

Finally, Donald Trump could be facing more legal problems.

After meeting with President Biden and VP Harris in Washington, Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is set to meet with Trump at Mar-a-Lame-O, and a number of folks on social media, including some Trump supporters, are pointing out that this shouldn't be happening because Trump presently is a private citizen running for office and meeting Netanyahu under these conditions constitutes a violation of the Logan Act.

Farron Cousins explains:


Trump thinks that as a former president, he's entitled to host heads of state at Mar-a-Lame-O. No one has been able to explain to him that there are rules for that.......!
