There’s a reason he’s called the dumbest member of Congress.

How could anyone not expect this?
How could anyone not know that his constituents would believe him?
Both of the above are fantasies…but COVID deals in reality

Well, in that case, I urge him to skip the hydroxychloroquine and go right to the bleach. A nice strong dose should do it.

Louie’s blinding me with science stoopid.
And if I may add, "Just die already, you ignorant motherfucker!"

Maybe some alien DNA will help him. I hope he doesn’t use precious medical resources on his quest to overcome his personal hoax.

It is my sincere hope that Jesus is calling Louie home.

Anyone with residual empathy for him needs to remove that, now.

I had a feeling he was asymptomatic. That’s a real disappointment. These people have to get sick and hospitalized, like Cain. I want them all on ventilators.

Wait, he’s blaming the mask that he didn’t wear for making him contract COVID-45?

Just agglutinate shameless Gohmert into a noun describing men of ill-temper and ill-repute.
“Look at that asshole, what a shamelessgohmert.“

But when was he tested, how long has he been waiting for results?
If, however, he’s lying and he got tested because he’s been experiencing symptoms, then I can have some hope he’ll get really sick. But this asymptomatic announcement does not please me.
