Pennsylvania senator to Trump: Come after me, you 's***-gibbon'
FEBRUARY 08, 2017 BY DANIEL CRAIG
PhillyVoice Staff

A Pennsylvania lawmaker had strong words for Donald Trump after the president reportedly joked he would "destroy" a Texas lawmaker's career.

Leach, who has pushed for civil asset forfeiture reform in Pennsylvania, invited Trump to come after him as well.

"Hey! I oppose civil asset forfeiture too," Leach wrote on Facebook and Twitter. "Why don't you come after me you fascist, loofa-faced s***-gibbon!!"

[HipChick]

3. The lack of respect towards this President....

has me smiling

[CurtEastPoint]

4. TEEHEEEEEEEEEEE! Me, too!

[HipChick]

6. Tired of these folks out here

being intimated by threat of a tweet..

[CurtEastPoint]

7. He has all those in his little party (Greedy Old Pricks) cowed. They are ALL afraid of him.

[onetexan]

21. the idiot asked for it

he got it back multifold

[MADem]

69. Well, it's something that is earned, yes?

Trump has never worked a real day in his life.

"Making deals" and cheating people isn't work. Thus, he doesn't "earn." Money (he might grift that, but not earn it), or respect.

He's one hideous person....

[Scarsdale]

76. True, that.

He looks like a total arse when he holds up those orders after signing them. Is he trying to dispel rumors that he can not write? We know he does not read, or can not read. President Bannon really needs to put a stop to that stupid act of his.

[BlancheSplanchnik]

81. Oh that's not gonna change....it's the kind of thing dumb-shit media looooves.

The kind of media and optics his dumb-shit, shambling toothless base (or fratty-boy, testosterone-poisoned, drunk, rich know-it-all base) just luuuurrrrrrrrrrvvvvvvv.

[MADem]

85. I love the way "the internet" has mocked him.....

[niyad]

83. please do not EVER refer to him as "president", a title he does not deserve.

pervert-in-chief is what I am using today.

[workinclasszero]

11. Thanks!

[Leghorn21]

5. I am swooning with ecstasy at this news!! Thank you for posting, zero!! eom

[catbyte]

8. "Loofa-faced"

Ouch!

[hamsterjill]

10. And THAT, my fellow DU'ers, is how you respond to a bully!

Senator Leach is my new hero! Good for him for standing up.

[MyOwnPeace]

12. Title had me fooled.........

because I KNEW it couldn't be Toomey!
Toomey could never call Drumpf "s***-gibbon" because his own nose is covered with Drumpf's!
GAWD, I hate that 2-faced Koch-sucker.

(well, at first the "hate" was meant for Toomey, but I guess I'll share it for Drumpf too! )

[superpatriotman]

13. I'd like to see Leach on the teevee

Instead of the mealy mouths that frequently pass for opposition voices.

[NCTraveler]

14. Poetic. Nt

[spiderpig]

15. I hope Sen. Leach hasn't copyrighted his insult.

I wanna borrow it!

[Augiedog]

16. Now we need CNN to ask tRump if he is a shitgibbon.

[klook]

23. or merely a numpty!

63. "F*ck-Nugget" has long been my favorite!

(But that's just me!)

(In more polite company, it's "Nuck-Fugget".....)

[klook]

67. LOL, so many good ones!

"Worthless fucking cocksplat" is near and dear to my heart!

Love the Scots -- reminds me, it's been a while since I've tried some of their excellent whisky.

[Guy Whitey Corngood]

72. I didn't read yours before posting below. I

wholeheartedly agree.

[Guy Whitey Corngood]

71. I prefer "cocksplat" myself. To each his/her own. nt

[Salviati]

55. Both sides of the issue should be presented to the people, so they can make up their own mind.

[jaxind]

17. To be honest...

I really don't think he was joking! I really think he forgot for a second that he wasn't in one of his closed-door business meetings. I really think he forgot that he was speaking as President of The United States, and forgot that he was speaking where the whole country could hear him! Just watch it again, and watch how he looks and speaks as he says those words. And, look at his reaction when everyone laughs. He doesn't laugh right away...he then realizes that everyone thinks he's joking, and he kind of breaks out into a tiny smile. We all know he is a bully!!!

[Hekate]

19. I wonder if he knows where is at all, sometimes. He has no boundaries at all.

[Leghorn21]

18. Sen. Leach's phone #s in case you'd care to dial him up with an "attaboy!" or a

22. Good idea

Thanks for posting that info.

[fleur-de-lisa]

49. Thank you!

I called and left a message thanking Senator Leach. About time someone stood up to that asshole bully!

[Leghorn21]

51. My pleasure, de-lisa! - now, here is Senator Leach's twitter acct. fyi, and he is having a

good time today!

https://mobile.twitter.com/daylinleach/status/829041688186335232

Also, I just now checked the shitgibbon's tweets - not one peep about the devastation in East New Orleans. Imagine that.

[Hekate]

20. Poetry, sheer poetry

[packman]

24. Makes this ex-Pennsylvanian proud

Bravo - well done sir

[drm604]

25. That's my state senator and FB friend.

He's a great guy and very funny. His FB feed is hilarious. He's also very progressive and he pulls no punches.

[workinclasszero]

29. He is a fearless progressive eh?

Just what is needed in the Dumpster age!

[orangecrush]

26. I just called him

To say "I love you"

[mnmoderatedem]

27. yes!

finally somebody punched the bully in the mouth!

[manicraven]

28. Music to my ears!

[BigDemVoter]

30. I read "loofa-faced shit-gibbon" and I spit coffee all over my desk!

[Snackshack]

31. Good for him.

However he should have left out the colorful metaphors. As good as it feels to do that it adds no value to the issue and plays right into the republicans hand.

It only weakens the message and gives republicans the opportunity to use it against him (as they have done time and again to Dems) by painting him as immature and demanding an apology...which in a few days he will most likely end up doing. Hopefully not but will probably be left with no choice but to acquiesce too.

[WinkyDink]

37. Oh, boohoo.

[Fantastic Anarchist]

44. The time for being nice is long over.

The colorful language is perfectly apt. It doesn't diminish his message at all.

The time for "being above the fray" is over. It hasn't worked so far. The reactionaries get away with their bullshit all the time, in fact, they gained majority of all branches of government, even while incompetent, by being fucking assholes.

The Left needs to give them a taste of their own medicine, and make it clear, and in no uncertain terms. Yell it from the roof tops, if they have to, but fucking express their opposition as much as they can.

This country is in crisis mode, and we need to start acting like it, not trying to mince words and hope nobody's feelings get hurt. Those days are over.

[SCVDem]

68. Cue the Dixie Chicks

[lark]

78. Thanks so much!

I don't like country music in general, but I LOVE the Dixie Chicks, love their fire, love their spirit, love this song!

[Alice11111]

73. Yep! Yep!

[Dark n Stormy Knight]

75. Awesome he's standing up the the "fascist, loofa-faced s***-gibbon!!"

I could not be more opposed the Pissolini if I tried. However, I'm going to have to agree with you.

I admit, my first reaction was to cheer for Leach. I balk at using the pResident's name and cannot even think of nasty enough names to call him. I always get a kick out of the epithets DUers come up with for him. But, one of the things I despise most about him is his immature, undignified, vulgar, brutish behavior.

I just don't think acting that way is appropriate for any elected official when speaking in an official capacity. And for the entire time anyone's president of the USA, any public statement falls into that category. Similarly for the others, but higher standards for higher office in that regard.

I want everyone who can to fight like hell with everything they've got, but without giving the other side ammunition when you can avoid it. And without helping our political arena turn into the WWF.

I really hesitated to post this, but surely I don't have to fear expressing dissent among fellow Drumpf haters.

[drm604]

82. Daylin knows exactly what he's doing.

He's my state senator and I have been following him for years. He's funny but he's also very smart and very politically astute. He's also not afraid to speak out against anyone he disagrees with, regardless of how powerful they are.

People are now talking about him here and elsewhere, which is exactly what he wants. With everything going on, getting this kind of attention requires doing something outrageous, and right now we need people like him getting attention and being heard.

I'm not sure what his endgame is but i have little doubt that he is deliberately baiting Trump. It will be interesting to see if and how Trump responds.

[Dark n Stormy Knight]

86. Well, here's hoping it does some good.

There might be a better way, but he's better than the Dems who seem to be rolling over and playing dead, or worse, enabling the treasonous bastard.

[OxQQme]

32. King of Prussia, PA rocks

I just HAD to google that: --> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/King_of_Prussia,_Pennsylvania

[drm604]

87. Yes indeed.

I live about 15 minutes from there. US 202 passes through a large retail district there, including one of the largest malls in the world. I do a lot of my shopping in that area.

I remember the old King of Prussia Inn (mentioned in the Wiki article) stranded on the median until they moved it. For years I didn't know what it was and wondered why it wasn't torn down. It's a good thing it wasn't.

[orangecrush]

33. In honor of the esteemed Senator...

[Alice11111]

77. Nice one!

[amuse bouche]

34. Good for him. Let's hope more stand up to Orange Hitler

[czarjak]

35. Now...

That's what I'm talkin' about.

[neeksgeek]

36. I called and left a message for the Senator...

Stating that I am 100% in agreement and to continue standing up to Trump.

[Maru Kitteh]

38. The Ham-Fisted Bun Vendor goes mainstream!

He should have TM'd that phrase! lol!

[Leghorn21]

45. Oh, thank you Maru! I couldn't for the life of me remember the tweeting wordmeister

who invented that particular delicious descriptive phrase!! Oh, I hope he's watching his artistry become international news today!! (yes - shoulda TM'd it!)

[Maru Kitteh]

65. Here's a link to his Twitter feed.

66. Merci Maru! eom

[KewlKat]

39. I hope Joy is still subbing for Chris and mentions this tonight!

Maybe Lawrence could get him on the phone?

[smirkymonkey]

40. Bravo!

Well done, sir!

[Cha]

41. Way to stand up to blotus blowhard and stand up for your fellow

law people!

Link to tweet

Thank you, working!

[workinclasszero]

46. Ain't this guy awesome Cha?

Pennsylvania has a progressive Rocky it seems.

[Cha]

47. Yes, I love him!

[Fantastic Anarchist]

42. One of the most creative insults I've ever heard.

I like this guy just for that.

[FailureToCommunicate]

43. Remember the good ol days when shouting "You Lie!" was a harsh thing?

[Mariana]

84. Well, let's see if anyone stands up shouts

"You shitgibbon!" during the SOTU speech.

[AgadorSparticus]

48. Thats because Leach knows how to effectively deal w/a bully.

[raccoon]

50. Best thing I've heard all day! nt

[muntrv]

52. That's an insult

to shit-gibbons.

[Leghorn21]

53. Oh my - this guy's a rock star! "...taught constitutional law, legal ethics, and First

Amendment law..."

Sorry, can't copy/paste from Wiki:

[Freedomofspeech]

54. Good for him...we Dems have been nice for too long.

PA proud....for a little while, anyway.

[OnionPatch]

56. Omg, that was great.

I think I love this guy!!

Leach 2020!!

[MyOwnPeace]

57. An aside................

regarding "asset forfeiture" - a serious problem that when you understand it you'll see why Drumpf would be for it - unless HE became a victim of it (Hmmmmmm, wonder if................).

Anyhow, here's a link to a marvelous article from New Yorker from 2013 - it IS a serious problem that I'm sure will only get worse under this thieving administration and its Attorney General!

58. DAYLIN LEACH 2020.

That is all!

[Leghorn21]

59. Remember when Chuck Jones, United Steelworkers Local 1999 president, told DFT that he was

"lying his ass off" about the bogus Carrier deal?

After a couple of nasty tweets - crickets. Sunkist Stalin is a weenie at heart, I truly believe.

Standing by to see if he's got anything to say to Senator Leach here in about six hours...

[Mc Mike]

60. Right on time, Sen Leach! rec, Nt

[PCIntern]

70. A "cash me outside, how bout dat" would have been internet epic.

But, I like the message.

[lillypaddle]

74. Whoa!

[raging moderate]

79. DAYLIN LEACH, THANK YOU!

Very gutsy, Mr. Leach.
