Bill Mitchell's grand display of republican dumbness.

This is why Bill Mitchell is trending. And he is going to town about how great he is to be trending even after people have told him its because he can't do math.

(He also has a bunch of poll questions that people might want to go over and answer correctly)

$30.38 is an even number average.
Pennies are money.
So so much projection accusing Democrats with their own favorite fundraising channels.

Poor Billy and the Republicans. They only wish that they had a grassroots fund-raising juggernaut. Instead, their Base either doesn't have the money or they've already given all their discretionary income to Profit Pastors and the NRA.

Gets more obvious every day that the Republicans survive only with the help of reactionary billionaires.

It's not just the total math fail, but lack of critical thinking skills and that would include any pretense of logic or reason. Then there's his wackadoodle belief in nutty rightwing Soros (they need a better villain) conspiracy theories.

Seriously if this idiot fancies the Republican cartoon character they call, Soros, who is dumb enough to try to launder his billions through a heavily regulated political action group under constant oversight by both govt and NGO watchdog organizations, he's got bigger problems than mere stupidity.

10. Why liberals love Bill Mitchell, Twitter's most absurd Trump supporter (2016)

Mitchell makes liberals look good, and he confirms their worst stereotypes about anti-science conservatives. Mitchell makes the press look good, and he confirms their worst stereotypes about blind partisans believing whatever they want to believe. Mitchell makes #NeverTrumpers look good, and he confirms their worst stereotypes about the gullibility of the movement Trump has created.

He can't do even simple arithmetic.

1,000 donations totalling $30,380 gives an average of $30.38.
