This strange but insane tale begins with Erick Erickson wandering the aisles of a Safeway supermarket. Hes accompanied by a Republican congressman who regularly appears on Fox News to defend President Donald Trump. If were going to lose because of him, we might as well impeach the motherfucker, the unnamed congressman told Erickson. Thats according to a new post from the conservative commentator, who wrote about his encounter with [one] of the Presidents congressional defenders who has privately decided he hates Trump and wants to unload. The congressman did not want to be seen with me on Capitol Hill, Erickson explains. He needed to get some stuff anyway and decided hed let me walk with him through the cereal and dairy selections at the Safeway near my hotel.

Congressman: I read you writing about this, about wanting to say nice things when you can and criticize when you need to. He may be an idiot, but hes still the President and leader of my party and he is capable of doing some things right, he continued. But dammit hes taking us all down with him. We are well and truly fucked in November. Kevin [McCarthy] is already circling like a green fly circling shit trying to take Pauls [Ryan] job because nobody thinks hes sticking around for Nancy [Pelosi]. Shes going to f**k up the cafeteria again too. [Lords name in vain], at least Ill probably lose too and wont have to put up with that shit.
Its like Forrest Gump won the presidency, but an evil, really fucking stupid Forrest Gump. He cant help himself. Hes just a fucking idiot who thinks hes winning when people are bitching about him. He really does see the world as ratings and attention. I hate Forrest Gump. I listen to your podcast and heard you hate it too. What an overrated piece of shit movie. Can you believe it beat the Shawshank Redemption?
I say a lot of shit on TV defending him, even over this. But honestly, I wish the motherfucker would just go away. Were going to lose the House, lose the Senate, and lose a bunch of states because of him. All his supporters will blame us for what we have or have not done, but he hasnt led. He wakes up in the morning, shits all over Twitter, shits all over us, shits all over his staff, then hits golf balls. Fuck him. Of course, I cant say that in public or Id get run out of town.

(13,933 posts)Newly ascendant Democrats may have hit roadblocks on Iraq and fiscal issues, but they have revamped congressional menus, replacing fatty, pre-made foods with healthier, gourmet alternatives. The once dreary congressional cafeterias now abound with haute cuisine.
The menu transformation is part of Speaker Nancy Pelosis Greening the Capitol plan to make the House campus more environmentally friendly and socially progressive.
But there can be a downside to delicious. Not everyone is happy with the enhanced offerings. Many congressional employees have complained that as the food quality has increased, so have the prices.

Strange that the article was perfectly willing to publish the fucks, motherfuckers, and shits, but primly indicated [Lords name in vain]. I mean, did the writer think Gawd would hurl him immediately into hell if he printed Goddamn or whatever it was? At least to me, goddamn is a lot tamer than fuck & motherfucker.
