GOP Candidate Barred from His Own Home

Teddy Daniels (R), a far-right Republican candidate for lieutenant governor of Pennsylvania, was removed from his home this week after his wife asked a court for emergency protections against abuse,” Rolling Stone reports.

This is at least the third relationship in which Daniels has been accused in court documents of mistreating a female partner.

Under the terms of the Tuesday order, Daniels is barred from the couple’s home in Lake Ariel, Pennsylvania, until the court orders otherwise. The order bars Daniels from contacting his wife and gives her temporary custody over their child. It also notes that there are firearms present in the couple’s home and bars Daniels from possessing or acquiring any firearms while the order is in effect, and to relinquish any he currently possesses to the court or an approved third party.

In handwritten notes from Daniels’ wife that the court included in its Tuesday order, Daniels’ wife alleges that her husband — whom the court lists at 6-foot-four and weighing 360 pounds — “grabbed me by the shirt” during an incident in August and “threatened to kill [our] family dog in front of children.”

Democratic opponent, sometimes.

I used to think that way (vote straight Democrat), but we do our due diligence, it takes my wife and I a couple of weeks to study each candidate, and we have found, at least in the last election, there was one local republican candidate, she was an incumbent, who had done a very good job, her position can only affect local businesses, and she seemed to be a very quiet person regarding her politics, so we voted for her. We do have to try to elect the best people we can, and as we have seen, local people are key. And let me add that the Democratic candidate who was opposing her did not look good, at all.

Its like the abortion issue. Can you imagine how many abortions trump's mistresses must have had? And other republicans as well, I bet their mistresses, daughters, and who know who else closely associated with them have had abortions, but when they push the abortion issue to their idiot followers, it works for them. But they know better.

pearl clutching faints over Clinton and Lewinsky, claiming that his affair with her was a security risk for the nation.

And his denial was, gasp! A lie!

Lies and affairs don't bother them at all any more, do they?

All he needs to do is support the 'BIg Lie' and say he's loyal to TFG and he will get TFG's endorsement.

Then he'll be a shoo-in to be elected.

turn in all but 4 or 5 of them and claim he turned them all in.

I also know, that if Pootie invades, the first thing his goons are gonna do is look up the records in the local police department to see who has guns. Republicans will be able to keep theirs. As for you lib'tard socialist Demmycrats and your guns......

























Yes, Arthur, its sarcasm.

They are absolutely allowed to be completely unqualified, and allowed to be nasty and even criminal as long as they support TFG lies and policies.

They can be seen waddling down the aisles of Walmart, proudly wearing too-tight t-shirts with "Let's Go Brandon" and "Fuck Your Feelings," arms and necks covered with lurid Nazi-font tattoos. They drive around in monster diesel PUs on giant mud tires, with welded battering ram bumpers, diamond-plate bed toolboxes and all manner of "patriotic" stickers on the rear glass. It's like these people are being cloned in some dank, rat-infested basement laboratory in some Klan hideout. Welcome to America.

Got the roid rage and mushbrain for that job.
I'm sure they'll overlook his criminal record and wife-abusing tendencies.
They do it all the time.

And maybe his K9 partner will eat him.

It wasn't so long ago that shit like this meant people slunk away from the spotlight rather than running towards it by running for office.

What ever happened to good old shame? With GOPers, the worse the crime, the more proud of themselves they are.

You damn kids, GET OFF MY LAWN! (I'm really not that old. I just value integrity.)
