Republicans Are SO Dumb ... How Dumb Are They?

When I first saw a photo of Texas Congressman Jeff Leach I thought he was a cute little nugget; but not only is he Texas but he’s also Republican and that puts a bad stank on cute little nuggets.

And then there was this … during a hearing on Texas’s anti-trans bill this week, which would expand the statute of limitations under which doctors can be sued by former patients who have received gender-affirming care n order to discourage healthcare professionals from providing gender-affirming care for fear of future litigation, a a third-grade teacher spoke out against the bill:

“We are suffering from so many different things in this state. To be focusing on something that would very specifically harm transgender kids when they represent such a small portion of our population, as a Texan it just really hurts my heart to see.”

And then we learned that Jeff Leach is not as smart as a third grade … teacher because following the teacher’s comments, Leach called on the next speaker listed:

“Is there a Connie Lingus here?”

Crickets.

“

What about Anita Dickinme? Or Holden Midick?”

Giggles.

“Are any three of those people here?”

Laughter.

“Alright, you got your… moment. I hope you enjoy it.”

Making a Republican look like more of an idiot? Yeah, we enjoyed it like shooting fish in a barrel.

Happy Monday!
