Call me crazy, but this Matt Gaetz fellow doesn't strike me as being particularly bright.




Someone ought to tell him about this brand new concept they just invented called "acting", wherein one person pretends to be another person for the purposes of entertainment.

Crazy, huh?

Matt Gaetz is like one of those aliens from Galaxy Quest if they were all obnoxious, drunken assholes.

That brings to mind Inigo Montoya from The Princess Bride: You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.

And that sentiment comes up with words Trump uses. I don't think he knows what those words mean!

He'd be the alien who was composted when he disabled the safety interlock on a recycling chute trying to retrieve someone's dirty underwear and fell in.

And the right loved him...till they found out he was actually liberal and then they thought they’d been betrayed.
