Not only was he the worst governor the state of California has ever had, he knocked up his maid, in the home he shared with his wife and family. I'm surprised this turd wasn't selected to be Groper's running mate.

Trump possibly would have selected Arnold if Arnold wasn't constitutionally disqualified from the job. (I was going to say "if he wasn't" but stopped - considering who the GOP standardbearer is, "he" would have confused people.)

Otherwise, he probably would made a run at it. Dodged that bullet.

Here you have Arnold, a vile, serial, abuser of women, outraged about Trump. The hypocrisy of the Republicans is astounding.

This is a great thing.

Every big Republican name that comes out and says this is something worth celebrating.


Instead, everyone has to show how very righteous they are by bashing Arnold.


Classic DU
