Pic Of The Moment: Republican Immigration Fearmongering Reaches New Heights Of Idiocy

[EarlG]

'Spectacular stupidity': MAGA lawmaker thrashed for accusing NCCA team of being migrants

[MineralMan]

1. Only the GOP! How moronic can they be?

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

29. Careful

They take phrases like that as a challenge.

[lonely bird]

63. True

The depths cannot be calculated with existing technology.

[republianmushroom]

2. Jesus, republican dumb and dumber.

[Blue Owl]

3. Someone tell him these are the final four busses of immigrants

[Harker]

10. That would surely confuse him.

There are only three.

[Lonestarblue]

4. A buss is a kiss, so how can three kisses be loaded with illegal invaders!

Did Republican legislators never go to school to learn anything? Their lack of knowledge and their hateful biases are appalling for people in the public eye representing our country.

[Disaffected]

7. Busses or buses,

both are correct but the former is antiquated.

[colorado_ufo]

30. Maybe is should be "bussses," since there are three of them.

[Disaffected]

32. You may be on to something there.

Plurals would become less ambiguous and the same could apply to most any object.

Might even be worth getting some petitionnns going.

[PoindexterOglethorpe]

57. The rule I learned in grade school, lo those many years ago,

was that in a short word, if the vowel was a short one, like bus, you double the final consonant and add "es", hence busses.

Think of it this way. The word abuse. Pronounce it. Okay. The plural is abuses. Pronounce that. Now go with buses, except that it would be pronounced like abuses without the initial a. Which is why the plural of bus is busses, not buses.

[Disaffected]

59. Looks like Rep Maddock (two d's) (R)

might not be quite as dumb as we might think.

[twodogsbarking]

8. Well buss my ass. Good catch.

[twodogsbarking]

5. Immigrants from Gonzaga. When will it end?

[EarlG]

6. This guy probably thinks Gonzaga

is one of those "shithole countries."

[rurallib]

9. with lots of very tall people

[ShazzieB]

49. Yes, lots of VERY tall people!

That alone should have tipped him off. But he evidently thinks there are people going to Mexico and hand picking only the very tallest guys to fly up here! Can't you just picture someone running around down there with yardsticks and stuff, measuring all the men waiting to get into the U.S.?

Because God knows we don't have any tall people here! We have to go south of the border to find any, and.... oh, we DO have tall people in this country? I see. All righty then...in that case, please explain to me why we would need to go to such lengths to import them from Mexico.

Take your time. I'll wait.

[IronLionZion]

42. Those buses crossed some borders alright

They crossed state borders from Spokane Washington to Detroit Michigan.

[Hermit-The-Prog]

11. ILLEGAL Gonzagan invaders! With uniforms!

[twodogsbarking]

17. Armed with basketballs.

[Hermit-The-Prog]

18. Those could be orange fentanyl bombs! Komrade Tucker will surely investigate.

[Dave Bowman]

47. Yikes! Fentanyl bombs!

And the orange ones are the worst.

[Dave Bowman]

45. I, for one,

welcome our Gonzagan overlords.

[liberal N proud]

12. Facts? The GOP doesn't believe in FACTS!

[RainCaster]

13. Oh no, not the Catholics!

Worse yet, they're not all white...

[Crowman2009]

20. Which is ironic conserding the he lives in the Detroit-metro area which is chock-full of Catholics.

A lot of whom are not white.

[JustABozoOnThisBus]

31. We even have a Jesuit university with a sometimes-not-bad basketball team

Go Titans.

[Crowman2009]

67. I believe Dick Vitale use to coach that team if I'm not mistaken.

[dobleremolque]

14. If idiocy were an Olympic sport,

this guy would be a gold medalist.

[Kid Berwyn]

15. "Spectacularly stupid"

Perfect summation of the entirety of Mich. State Rep. Matt Maddock.

[MyOwnPeace]

43. This is what tRump did......

He made it possible for idiots to actually say their stupid shit in public and not be ashamed of being a f**king idiot!

[Roc2020]

16. you have got to be kidding me

[Crowman2009]

19. Another racist white-flight dickhead who thinks Gonzaga is one of dem dere foreign words.

[AverageOldGuy]

21. From time to time . . .

. . . I encounter something that is so blazingly stupid, all I can do is slam my head into the desk.

Now I have a headache!!!

[ffr]

22. Sherlock Holmes

NOT!

[JoseBalow]

23. What's with all these busloads of Gonzales?

[underpants]

24. 😆😆😆

[Nevilledog]

25. Perfect! 😆

[AllaN01Bear]

26. snork

[Thunderbeast]

27. Jimmy Kimmel will have fun with this..

One of his long-time gags is positing that Gonzaga does not exist.

[jmowreader]

35. After he started doing that...

Gonzaga’s athletics department asked the company who prints the T-shirts they sell to create one that says “Gonzaga Exists” on it. It sells well.

[Thunderbeast]

28. Jimmy Kimmel will have fun with this..

One of his long-time gags is positing that Gonzaga does not exist.

[SWBTATTReg]

33. So stupid that it burns. Add this zinger to the list of idiotic statements by the GOP.

[SupportSanity]

34. They're all suspect until there's proof!

[malaise]

36. If you can't even spell busses...

That is all

[twodogsbarking]

40. ssssssss

[jmowreader]

37. Well...ya know..."Spokane" does sound a little foreign.

He probably can’t even pronounce it.

The “spo” is pronounced like it looks.

Guys like this pronounce “kane” like the cane he waves around while telling kids to get off his lawn.

It’s pronounced like the can of whoop-ass Biden’s fixin’ to open on Trump in November.

[niyad]

38. As a matterof curiosity, just how many people are there involved with

a college baskeetball team? Though it may be the angle, those buses look huge!

[riversedge]

48. Just a guess but there were probably college student fans included on the bus

[niyad]

55. Thank you. That obvious thought had not even occurred to me.

[LisaM]

58. They probably also take the cheerleaders and the band.

We were in Spokane last weekend and there were buses and a police escort waiting outside of the Davenport Hotel to take the St. Mary's Gaels to a game. Inside the lobby were about 20 cheerleaders, about 30-40 band members, and the mascot.

[Initech]

39. Put down the bong and back away from Fox News very slowly...

[IronLionZion]

41. Migrants have great basketball skills

anyone who says otherwise is a commie.

[Dem2theMax]

44. I thoroughly enjoyed tweeting that directly to Matthew Maddock.

I encourage others to join me.

If you are still on Twitter, @matthewmaddock

[Hassler]

46. Moron Matt shows why the Michigan GOP

Is a broke basketcase

[COL Mustard]

50. Well, to be fair....

They ARE from out of state, and you know, some are probably...brown...

[Archae]

51. At his Twitter/X account, he doubles down.

When a couple people correct him, he calls them "kommies."

Link to tweet

[Wonder Why]

52. C'mon Earl. Nobody believes that. Gonzaga is a Japanese monster & those are probably immigrants from Japan.

[llmart]

53. Just when you think they can't get any dumber...

they prove us wrong.

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

54. Republicans consider intelligence to be elitist

[VGNonly]

56. It was at

Four Seasons Landscaping according to Rudy G.

[summer_in_TX]

60. A mind on a steady diet of conspiracy theories is a terrible thing to waste.

Just say "No!"

[LetMyPeopleVote]

61. K&R

[Silent3]

62. As far as manipulative politicians are concerned, this isn't idiocy, it's good politics

Now, maybe Maddock is stupid enough to have believed this idiocy himself.

On the other hand, he might know it's total bullshit... very effective bullshit for riling up his base.

[dalton99a]

64. Kick

[DownriverDem]

66. Our local news

Channel 7 Detroit reached out to the Michigan GOP and Maddock. The MI GOP offered no response and Maddock doubled down on his lies.
