My mother guessed who had COVID-19 on the first try.

[Mike 03]

I gave her two clues:

"He's not from our state."

"But he's the dumbest person in Congress."

She said: "Oh. Gohmert!"

She guessed Louie Gohmert straight away. I could hardly contain my laughter.

9. Gohmert is one of the reasons...

...that I think a literacy test for voting might not be a bad idea, IF and ONLY IF it can be done in a way that doesn't boil down to Jim Crow reborn.

Seriously - no one who can read and write could possibly think Gohmert is someone who should be serving in Congress.

11. Not in favor of voter tests. But a literacy test for politicians would be a good idea.

[TheBlackAdder]

10. He must represent the majority in his district.

12. I 💖 your mom 🙂

14. I saw that Gohmert recently met with Barr

If Barr gets seriously ill because of that meeting, I might even stop trashing Gohmert for a day or two.

15. The other day my husband was telling me some ridiculous Republican congressman's remark and he

couldn't remember the guy's name. He just said he was the tall, stupid looking one. I haven't a clue. There are just too many to choose from.

[Scarsdale]

19. Could be Cotton

or Goetz. Not Gym Jordan, he is a little shrimp.

[Vinca]

21. I bet it was Cotton. He's definitely stupid looking and definitely tall.

My husband despises Gym so he would have known his name. Goetz might be tall, but Cotton has him cornered on stupid looking. LOL.

[Vinca]

23. You win! He says it was Cotton. Good guess.

[Evolve Dammit]

16. That man behind him beyond eye roll. "Jesus God, please get me out of here; the stupid just burns."

[NurseJackie]

25. This makes me so happy! I laughed loud enough that the Mister could hear me in the other room...

This makes me so happy! I laughed loud enough that the Mister could hear me in the other room... and his curiosity was so great that he came in to ask me "What's so funny?"

[warmfeet]

26. Dumbest in congress pretty much gives it away.

Repugs have some real stupid assholes in congress. Gohmert beats them all.

[dchill]

27. "...dumbest person in Congress."

Dead giveaway!

[Blue Owl]

28. She wins the Golden Gohmie Award!

29. It's like the original Trivial Pursuit game; when in doubt,

the answer was either Richard Nixon or Secretariat
