New Minority House Leader Whitey McCarthy just stated.. (MNSBC)...

"We need to do better in the suburbs" Fucking Hysterical!

Hey Whitey McCarthy... How about women in general?.. How about inner cities,? How all about kids turning 18
who are frightened as hell of the unchecked N.R A..

Another tip Whitey: (Of Course I only call him that because of the color of his hair)

And finally: how about trying to work with Dems. on a new (Progressive Immigration Bill)

Maybe some in our Mexican Communities might see you and your racist cohorts in a better light.

Ah... No Fucking Way.... Seems to me Your party is gonna end up as the proverbial mouse on a spinning Wheel for many many years... Relying on your Homophobic, Xenophobic, Misogynistic, Racist... Base!

Good Fucking Luck!

...just you wait...in repuke state houses they're gonna come up with ways to suppress the suburban woman's vote through "exact match" voter registration. Married women have all sorts of hyphenated last names or not. So they're gonna say "your signature doesn't match your registered name, etc. etc.

"Do better in the suburbs" is code for finding a new and scarier monster to frighten the bigoted housewives he thinks still exist in vast numbers. Personally, I think McCarthy&Co don't realize that you can't unjump the shark. Their women voters saw through the caravan lies, and they know R's can't be trusted with healthcare.

He saw what happened to the last two leaders of his caucus. The tiger turned on them and tore them to pieces. Their political careers were ended, and if they had any governing impulses at all, they were smooshed by pressure from the rabid right base. Show the slightest bit of compromise, Mr. McCarthy, and you can join John Boehner growing cannabis. Or join Paul Ryan doing whatever the fuck he's going to be doing come 2019. You can't do a fucking thing except hold on while the tiger tries to throw you off.
