Republican Stupidity: "Ready For His Close-up" by Betty Cracker

[Pluvious]

Great read…

Countless Republican dysfunctions turned the much-vaunted red wave into a puny trickle on Tuesday, despite historic tailwinds. Dems absolutely pummeled the GOP in small-dollar donations, and Republican grifters took huge cuts of the scant grassroots funding Republicans did manage to scrounge up.

That required Romney’s niece to scuttle forth repeatedly to rattle the begging bowl at increasingly skeptical fat cat donors. Some decided they’d given enough and sat the race out.

Rick Scott and Mitch McConnell, two of the most odious and ruthless douchebags in the Senate, knifed each other over campaign strategy and hilariously knee-capped one another on fundraising and spending with competing PACs. You can read all about it in a longish, schadenfreuderiffic article at this WaPo gift link.

But primary credit for Tuesday’s debacle has to go to Trump, a black hole of need, stupidity and malice who seems determined to keep right on sucking Republican prospects into an airless void until he either dies or Republicans figure out how to pry the cult out of his tiny fists:

1. Donald took so much as his cut that the repub war chest became a fanny pack.

2. "A black hole of need, stupidity and malice"

That is perfect.
