You may recall that Blake Masters is one of those candidates that makes the Republican primaries...extra special.
Backed by both Donald Trump and Peter Thiel, for whom he works, Blake Masters has no problem blaming 'Black people' for gun violence. He also thinks the states should be allowed to ban contraception. .
He's got conflicting opinions on gay marriage which might give pause to Peter Thiel, a gay married man:

these jackwagons claim they want the government to run like a business.
Social Security runs exactly like a private sector insurance company.
So
what is the one agency theyre most hell bent on getting rid of? The one that actually meets their fondest wishes.
