Discussion: Bank Fires WI GOP Treasurer Candidate After He Refused To Drop Out Of Race

If this guy needed the conflict explained to him, he has no business working in a bank OR serving in state government.

Dumb and Dumber all rolled into one package.

“Employer restrictions like this make it hard for citizens to want to be involved in their government,” he said.

Then don’t work for a company that contracts with the state government, idiot.

“Hartwig initially said in a telephone interview with The Associated Press that no one at the bank ever explained to him why he couldn’t run for treasurer.”

And lord fucking knows, some dumbass banker republican is entirely unequipped to generate an understanding of the ETHICAL CONFLICT OF INTEREST issue all by his idiot, amoral lonesome.

The current treasurer campaigned on getting rid of the office and then complained his office budget was too small. They just keep getting worse.

Cade said he plans to file a complaint with the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission and the Fair Employment Practices Agency.

Wait, what about “at-will employment”? Don’t Republicans believe that employers are able to fire employees, no matter the reason?

Yeah, but then where would the Republican Party be? I don’t mean Hartwig specifically, but there’d be virtually no GOP left.

Cade said he plans to file a complaint with the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission and the Fair Employment Practices Agency.

He should probably call the Kardashians instead, I’ve heard the EEOC is doing it’s best not to work, and Kim has a direct line to the White House.

Curdles the blood, just thinking about it…
