    while that is amusing and reinforces a lot of notions people have about Boebert ... I don't know why a guy who worked on TV cartoon program is worthy of belief in political matters.

    Yeah, tweets that are supposed to share a fact, from unverified twitter accounts, are a bad idea. If they're unverified but they write something funny, fine.

    But a guy who worked on TV reality program and is, personally, a walking cartoon, was President of the United States! (and may still be, according to some)

    Of course, you are correct and this needs to be confirmed by a reputable news source. I wonder if our new clam friend has any reputable news sources to confirm this.

    I hadn't checked BigSoccer over the weekend. I see he was red carded.

    He should have clammed up when he was warned.
    So, I guess he was shucked and tossed out.

    Boebert did get her high school degree only recently, per the GED. The part about somebody else taking the test for her is almost surely guessing.

    Incidentally, Boebert has stated that she was "proud" that she dropped out of high school to "feed her family." I don't recall Republicans saying they are "proud" when Black or Latina girls drop out of high school because they become pregnant (as Boebert was). But surely the GOP doesn't take skin color into consideration when discussing such topics. That would imply that the party is racist, and I can't believe that to be the case.

    Surprisingly, he did not find it difficult to open up to people.

    That was the pun I wanted to write. Excellent.

    Afghan refugees won’t accept terms of constitutional government? Then they can join the GOP.
