The first day of school, a student came up to her and said "My mama said to tell you we don't do decimals in Kentucky."

That's pretty much it. "We're stupid and we're gonna stay that way!"

As someone who relies on the VA I want someone that knows what they are doing. I don't know if McGrath has that sort of relevant experience.

Never, never, never, never, never, never, never, never, never.

It's fucking Kentucky.

Fucking coal-mining-creation-museum-redneck-inbred-Ark-museum-fundamentalist-poorly-educated-racist-asshole Kentucky. A shithole state if there ever was one. If you stuck parts of Adolf Hitler, Jeffrey Epstein, and Ted Bundy together, and the undead corpse shot a kid on the Kentucky Capitol grounds and then banged a sheep, then ran as a Republican, Kentucky would elect it.

McGrath had the best chance I have ever seen. However, shenanigans and gerrymandering make it quite a mountain to climb.

But I felt my dough would do better with other candidates in other states.
