I've been saying for years and years and years, Republicans have no new ideas.
Republicans have no idea how to govern because they have no interest in governing.
All they care about is winning because for most of them, and unfortunately for far too
many people on the left politics is team sports.
It's a win or loss.
Zero, some aim.
You don't have to do anything in the, in between, right?
And the off season, which is when you're not running for reelection, it just matters if
you win or lose.
And so because Republicans have nothing to run on, they have to make stuff up, which
is exactly what Senate Republicans led by Florida re and Senator Rick Scott have done
with a new rumor.
They created and then are raising money off of about Michelle Obama, the former first
lady of the United States.
Let me read this new fundraising email from the national Republican senatorial committee,
which of course the fundraising arm of the Senate, Republican, which is run by Rick Scott.
So here it is.
Yep.
You are reading this right.
Michelle Obama running for president in 2024 left wing Democrats know they are going to
lose their majority in Congress this November.
So they want to bring out an Obama to save them in 2024.
We did not believe it.
When we first heard rumors are spreading like wildfire, that a certain someone, someone
who already spent eight years in the white house is thinking of running for president
in 2024.
There's no truth to that at all.
That's literally a thing.
These a-hole Republicans made up and then sent it out to their idiot followers.
And I don't care if that offends you, your idiots and they're using it to scare them
into just giving them more money.
Aren't you afraid of the scary black lady, white people?
Well then you better send us some money to the whitest pastist guy in the United States,
Senate, Rick Scott.
I mean, that's really what this is about.
Let's get to the heart of it.
Folks.
This is about racism, especially because if they were wanted to scare them with a woman,
they could have picked Hillary Clinton.
There's all kinds of rumors right now flying about her running again in 2024.
Why not pick her?
Why not pick Elizabeth Warren?
You had to go for the black woman because we're not idiots.
And we can see what you're doing.
That's what this is about at the heart of it at all.
It goes back to the good, old, deep seated racism in the Republican party.
And of course, if you were to point that out to 'em, they'd say like, oh, you people make
race about everything.
No, no, no.
Michelle Obama has repeatedly stated for many, many years in a row.
She has no interest in running for office ever for any office at any time ever.
She does not want to be president of the United States.
She doesn't wanna be a Senator.
She don't wanna be a representative.
She doesn't wanna be anything other than what she is now, which is a happy end.
And she has every right to be that person, Republicans don't care because facts don't
matter to them.
Facts have never mattered to them.
At least in my lifetime, I know many years ago, over a hundred and some odd years ago,
Republican party used to be different used to not be terrible, but that was a long time
before I was born a long time before really any of us were born and this is what they've
become today.
They have no issues.
They have no policies.
They have no real stances on anything other than tax cuts and voter suppression.
So when in doubt, ch trot out that good old fear factor mixed in with a little bit of
racism to try to squeeze some more money out of the dumbest people in this country.
