The Defense department’s inspector general found in a soon-to-be-released report that Rep. Ronny Jackson (R-TX) verbally abused his staffers, became intoxicated during trips with the President, and sexually harassed his female subordinates while serving as White House physician under the Obama and Trump administrations, CNN reports.
But who among us hasn’t drunkenly pounded on their subordinates’ hotel doors late at night demanding sex? Come on people! We’re not monks and have our needs! It’s just boys being boys, locker room stuff, what REAL MEN do!
…and of course, Ronny trots out the old ‘Democrats are going after me because…’ and insists that they are ‘using’ the report from 2018 to ‘get him’ amid NEW allegations. And yet TEXAS lined right up to elect this moron.
The capacity of your average GOP voter to support all manner of horrible behavior is unreal. The founders didn’t really account for the fact that really stupid and vile people could vote. Well, actually, they did. Perhaps universal suffrage isn’t such a good idea? I’m just kidding, of course, but still, it does make you wonder sometimes.
Well…the Founders thought that the ‘really stupid and vile people’ were in the House and that the wealthy landowners in the Senate would show a modicum of intelligence to rule the day. I think they didn’t account for the fact that it would be the Senators that would bet against our country.
