[1] ['This Content Is Not Subject To Review Daily Kos Staff Prior To Publication.'] Date: 2023-10-11 C’mon, play along! Which US representative going to win the coveted $25 million a year Fox News gig? This weeks contestants are: Nancy Mace! New “liberal media” it girl! Sure, she doesn't pass any legislation that will help Americans but look at my Scarlet “A”! I’m so oppressed! Plus did you see when Antifa painted graffiti on my house in my own handwriting? Or when I got that pic in front of Trump Tower after he endorsed my opponent? Did you see me on The View? CNN? She’s up there but competition is pretty stiff. Next up: Jim Jordan! Sure, he doesn't pass any legislation that will help Americans but have you seen him yell at witnesses? Have you seen any of his hundreds of Fox News appearances? Have you seen him “own the libs” while avoiding any repercussions for covering up sexual assault at Ohio State? He is a formidable opponent. But is he any match for: Ron DeSantis! Sure, he doesn't pass any legislation that will help Americans or Floridians, but have you seen all the books he “didn't” ban”? Have you seen his impressive attacks on the horrors of Disney? Then beg them to drop their lawsuit against him? How about his rewriting of US history? Slavery wasn't so bad you know.. Have you heard about the brilliant “Doctor” he wants to make Surgeon General? Who falsifies reports to make sure people are afraid to get vaccinated? Not to mention the fact that he seems to have grown 5 inches overnight! That, is seriously impressive. But is he as impressive as: Harriet Hageman! Sure, she doesn't pass any legislation that will help Americans but boy did she look good marching into the Republican “who’s going to be the next useless SOTH” meeting carrying… a lasso. Yeah, a lasso. I really have nothing else to add to that. Oh but can she hold a candle to: Tommy Tuberville! Sure, he doesn't pass any legislation that will help Americans but have you seen his hold on military promotions? How about his call to the “traitors” in the Capitol police after General Hayden said he’s not worth being a human being on Twitter. After his stern warning to Trump to stop calling for the execution of Army Generals, he had every right to call the cops. I must admit he could win it, after all, he’s spent his entire life showing people how to play with a ball. But can Tommy beat out: Lauren Boebert! Sure, she doesn't pass any legislation that will help Americans, but she carries a gun, hates LGBTQ people, and raises her bible in the air to tell us all how she is a Christian Warrior, spreading the word and teachings of Christ, unless she’s in a dark theater and all those jerks around her are spoiling her sexy time, then it's every Christian for themselves. After all, do you know who she is? And of course, the front runner: Marjorie Taylor Greene! Sure, she doesn't pass any legislation that will help Americans, but she’ll stop those immigrants coming into a country built on immigrants, give Ukraine to Putin, get another Christian divorce, this time from the rest of America, and fire her .50 cal over and over on Twitter showing Steve Bannon just how “tough” she is. Yeah she had to move to one of the reddest districts in America after realizing her neighbors would never vote for her, but that is not disqualifying. Neither is her membership in Qanon. I for one cannot wait for the next crop of brilliant Republicans to come in and “save us”. It’s not like we have anything to worry about, Climate change, AI, health care, income inequality, war in the middle east, and the previous winner of “Celebrity Government” Donald J. Trump, coming back to finish off the country. I am once again reminded of Doc Brown in Back To The Future getting his first look at a video camera. “No wonder your President is an actor, he needs to look good on TV.” [END] --- [1] Url: https://www.dailykos.com/stories/2023/10/11/2198766/-Americas-Newest-Hit-Reality-Show-Celebrity-Government?pm_campaign=front_page&pm_source=latest_community&pm_medium=web Published and (C) by Daily Kos Content appears here under this condition or license: Site content may be used for any purpose without permission unless otherwise specified. via Magical.Fish Gopher News Feeds: gopher://magical.fish/1/feeds/news/dailykos/
