GOP Sen. John Kennedy Says House Dems are Telling Americans Youre Stupid and Were Smart
By Connor MannionOct 19th, 2019, 7:58 pm
Sen. John Kennedy (R-LA) told Fox News that House Democratic leadership is telling the American people youre stupid and were smart on the subject of impeachment.
Kennedy spoke with Neil Cavuto on Cavuto Live Saturday about the impeachment inquiry into President Donald Trump, opening with vitriol for Rep. Adam Schiff and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi.
When I watch the House impeachment proceedings Im perplexed and appalled. Here is what I hear Nancy Pelosi and Chairman Schiff saying to the American people. You are stupid and we are smart. I hear them saying to the American people you are so stupid you cant govern yourselves. I hear them saying you are so stupid that you chose Donald Trump over Secretary Clinton and weve got to fix it for you, Kennedy said.
Well, they could turn it around on you Senator and say are Republicans stupid enough to keep carrying the presidents water?
that he does the kind of things that put guys like you on the spot, Cavuto asked.

(172,852 posts)they have no respect for our laws, the Constitution, justice, NOTHING, it's all a fucking CON GAME to them and pandering to unbelievably stupid people is SOP
If we really want to make serious change in this country, we need to stop giving garbage people platforms. Trash begats trash.
Donald Trump is a garbage person. So is Limbaugh, Hannity, Pierro, Savage, Jones, McConnell, I could go on and on.
it's the American people with IQ's above tepid swamp water temp, telling you ya mush mouthed cracker that we are smarter than you...
jeez this clown is a evolutionary catastrophic throwback...

They have to have politicians tell them things, just like they need a preacher to tell them bible stories. They cannot read for themselves, they need someone to explain things for them. Poor things.
And Kennedy knows his audience, doesn't he?

(3,678 posts)However, the Dems are telling the American people they're going to try to hold the criminal to account. And by the polls, most of them approve.
There is a stupid group of people, of course. It's the ones STILL trying to protect the criminal.

(56,261 posts)But for some reason zero republicans complained about that.
And impeachment isn't about reversing an election, Clinton wouldn't replace Donnie; pence, who also won thanks to the electoral college, would.
So mostly what he's doing is the usual Republican game of claiming to be a victim when anyone even suggests they be held to any standards whatsoever.
