Man, the Right-Wingers have really lost their critical thinking skills, becoming foolish imps. [View all]

.


I ran into a guy, at Starbucks, who is a little odd, but once seemed to have deductive reasoning skills.


Well, after about a year of not seeing him, he approaches me. And this is what he says:

"It looks like congress is going to force out Trump and Pence, replacing them with Hillary and Bernie?"


Once hearing this, I realized the guy is a lost case, and kept it brief, not going into the chain of succession, the fact that it's a Republican House and Senate, or the other things that flooded my mind. I just told him that it would not happen because Paul Ryan would be the next in line. I also stated that whoever told him that were idiots who make things up.


To that, he retorts, "Yeah, we're not a parliamentary system of government."


I turned from him and ignored his woefully ignorant ass and went about my business.


Like a cult member, he is lost until he can be freed of his control agents.
