Stephen King on Susan Collins: 'Women in Texas must pay the price for her gullibility'

Famous Bangor resident and bestselling author Stephen King on Thursday slammed his home-state's senior senator after the United States Supreme Court refused to block the controversial anti-abortion law passed by Texas Republicans.

Sen. Susan Collins (R-ME) voted to confirm Brett Kavanaugh to the high court and the vote has haunted her since the court's overnight decision, as she repeatedly insisted that Kavanaugh did not pose a threat to abortion rights.

King slammed Collins for being gullible. King had previously slammed the Texas law as religious extremism. "The Taliban would love the Texas abortion law," he wrote.

will keep voting for her. She's always so "concerned" but will eventually toe the republican line every time.

Susan Collins isn't "gullible." Susan Collins is a fucking liar. People who buy her bullshit are "gullible."

Time to start assigning blame for this monstrous clusterfuck. Collins is as good a starting place as any.
