    What this motherfucker is also saying is that if your name sounds like that, he’s not going to represent you and therefore you shouldn’t vote for him or have any expectations of representation. I don’t know if he’s thought this through, but his racism has probably overpowered any higher-level thinking capacity he might have.

    “hey voters, remember when racism was OK? Yeah me too. Vote for me.”

    Guaranteed to work on us. I bet my dad loves this asshole.

    If you can learn how to pronounce all the Finnish, Polish, Czech, and Slovak last names in Michigan, names like this should be easy. There’s not even a bunch of silent consonants in there!

    If you can say Benedict Cumberbach or Timothy Chalemet you can say his name. English has the sounds already there, you just don’t want to do it.

    I mean when the only thing of value you have to offer to the job is a shorter name, what else would you advertise on?

      Well he’s a Republican. So he can advertise being, or at least supporting, felons, rapists, pedophiles, and traitors. That’ll get him staunch conservative support.

        It’s upsetting that the race is close. People are having a tough time choosing between “health care for everyone” and “I want you to fucking die”.

          I voted Sunday in Talarico’s district, ostensibly for ppl who don’t literally want me dead. We’ll see how many actually get elected. Making massive assumptions based on clothing/hair the democrats are out in force for early voting

    They’re even using their same old tired playbook from 20 years ago. Remind me again, did that work well against Barack Hussein Obama?

      Unfortunately, the racist playbook seems to be working really, really well for them right now. Let’s see if that starts changing in a couple weeks.
