Madison Cawthorn, the Republican candidate running for former Rep. Mark Meadows’ (R-NC) old seat, scrambled to put out the fire sparked on Thursday by his racist attack involving Sen. Cory Booker (D-NJ), who is Black, and a journalist who volunteered for Booker’s 2020 presidential campaign.

Madison Cawthorn?

Talk about a throwback to the 1700’s, in so many ways.

Though Madison is an ok name (I’m a fan of the movie, ‘Splash’), I blame his parents for that.

And here is Mitch McConnell’s hands. Something is going on with this man’s overall health but he insists everything is fine, and right before an election where he is on the ballot no less:

The public has a right to know.

So he’s against political operatives? Maybe he should tell Rupert Murdock, Karl Rove and all the other moral monsters on the right who have helped destroy this country.

Oh this one’s fun and easy…

"“become a political operative and is an unapologetic defender of left-wing identity politics.”

Teatroll Rosetta Stone: "quit his academia job in Boston to work for non-white males, like Cory Booker, who aims to ruin white males running for office.”

Sorry, Madison, but you can’t put the shit back in the dog.

The Republican claimed in a statement that the original sentence contained a “syntax error” that failed to “convey my intended meaning.”

He doesn’t seem to know what “syntax” is either. The sentence structure was abysmal, but that wasn’t really the problem.

Just to be clear, this is the dude who’s a GOP hero for getting paralyzed in a car wreck and losing a $30 million lawsuit against the insurance company, dropping out of a wingnut university after a bunch of straight D’s, getting semi-rapey with a bunch of young women, and whose literal bucket list vacation was visiting Hitler’s mountaintop vacation home. So yeah, he’s probably gonna win that district.

“My concerns were never with Cory Booker but Tom Fiedler who I believe is more of a political operative than a journalist based on his pattern of biased reporting,” he said.

Extra credit for deflecting accusations of racism by going after the white guy who supports the black guy.

Appearances aren’t destiny or anything, and I’m not trying to dopeshame, but the file photo looks exactly like how I’d expect a bumbling incompetent racist GOP candidate named Madison Cawthorn to look.

So he’s against taxes, except for sin taxes.
