"SNIP......
President Trump said he was going after Virginia during a speech at the White House.
Said Trump: Were going after Virginia, with your crazy governor, were going after Virginia.
He then made a reference to gun rights to the farmers present: They want to take your Second Amendment away. Youll have nobody guarding your potatoes.
......SNIP"

I grew up on a Virginia farm, Mr. Presidentour potatoes are fine. And as the only medical doctor among our nation's governors, I suggest you stop taking hydroxychloroquine.
Let's all get back to work.

The upside is they can now steal all the potatoes they want!!!

And after that he'll come for the tobacco-grower voters in Idaho, and the orange growers in Minnesota, and the winter wheat farmers in Alabama!
We're doomed!

(50,529 posts)Donald Trump was strutting up and down Virgina Beach in his bathing suit, hoping to attract the eye of some local sunbathing ladies, but to no avail. Frustrated, he asked a lifeguard why aren't any women looking at me?" The lifeguard suggested try putting a potato in your swim trunks, and I guarantee youll get some attention! So Donald took his advice, but awhile later was back at the lifeguard stand complaining that the ladies were not only ignoring him but pointing and laughing at him. The lifeguard took a look at him and said Donald... you gotta put the potato in the FRONT of your shorts!"

In 2017, Von Clusterfuck's candidate for governor LOST to Gov Northam by...wait for it...NINE points! This was the largest margin of victory for a Democrat for this office since 1985. Additionally, this election had the highest turnout in over 20 years, and saw all three major state offices won by Democrats and the massive reduction of Republicant control of the House of Delegates from 66-34 to 51-49.

In 2018, Sen Tim Kaine easily won re-election against Von Clusterfuck's stooge, Corey Stewart by...SIXTEEN points. This was the first senate race called on that election night. This election also saw the turnover of multiple congressional seats from Republicant control, which contributed to Democrats winning control of the House of Representatives.

In 2019, Virginia Democrats continued their 2017 gains by winning majority control of the Virginia House of Delegates and the Virginia Senate.

In 2020, all I say is, BRING IT Lysol Von Clusterfuck. Remember Virginia's motto: Sic Semper Tyrannis (Thus Always to Tyrants).

I think, the further he sinks in the polls, the more he'll just seek revenge. He'll give up on winning elections and "win" by making everyone's life miserable.
