Not really a fan of Ron White, but his line “Can’t fix stupid” really seems to fit Confederate Barbie here.

I believe that the Conservative Bible actually reads “Thou not shall commit adultery unless you’re a bible thumping Republican, in which case have at.”

Trump got 55 percent of the votes in South Carolina in 2016 - Hillary got 41 percent - Johnson got slightly over 2 percent - Did Strom Thurmond get the rest? We just re-elected Henry McMaster the Diaster - the trump appointed governor (indirectly - he sent Nikki Haley to the UN, so McMaster inherited the job of SC Governor so he would be able to run for re-election as an incumbent). We have little or no right to criticize Mississippi even though one of our Senators is black - Tim Scott. Both Tim Scott and Lindsey Graham answer to the same bosses: Heritage Foundation, NRA, trumpers, one-percenters.

Has she given a shout out to her other distant relatives, Cindy Jekyll and Mrs. Hyde?

But we do have a Democrat in the House seat that was occupied by Mark Sanford - that’s a big victory for South Carolina (thanks to Trump for ruining Sanford’s chances in the repub primary). Joe Cunningham, I hope you can neutralize the votes of Joe “You Lie” Wilson.

Is it confirmed that she’s related to Henry Hyde? I would not accept anything she says as true without checking it.

“Many of you may have heard of Sen. Henry Hyde from Oklahoma,” Hyde-Smith said, according to a video published Sunday by the Jackson Free Press. “That was a distant relative. He put in a bill many years ago that we could never use federal funding to fund abortions.”

Apparently Missy doesn’t know her own relatives, bless her cute lil’ heart.

This woman defines the level of competence expected of a GOP Senator from a deep red state. I am reminded of Caligula’s horse Incitatus which was similarly qualified to serve in the Roman Senate.

I was sooo happy to see Joe Cunningham win! Joe Wilson is my wretched excuse for a congresscritter, and I can’t wait for him to go.

In Illinois, we call a person who does that “An Elected Official”.

Edit: There should also be large sums of global capital of imperfect provenance involved too, tho.
