Biggest Asshole of the Week

This has been an outstanding week of exceptional assholery. I can't decide which of these cretins is worse.

1. Donald Trump - Too much shit to even quantify.

2. Clarence Thomas - Reckless ass grabbing.

3. Newt Gringrich - Hypocritical slut shaming.

4. Bundy Jury - WTF???

5. James O'Keefe - More bullshit videos.

6. Mark Kirk - Insulting a disabled vet and her entire family.

7. Alex Jones - Bless his heart.

8. Any random Trump spokesperson - Babbling crazy shit.

9. Megan Kelly - Race baiter extraordinaire discovering social issues that affect only herself.

10. Mike Pence - I'm sure he said something stupid. It just got lost in the tsunami of other bullshit.

11. John McCain - Blocking all SCOTUS picks.

12. Darrell Issa - Trying to make buddy-buddy with Obama after being a total shit.

13. Rudy Giuliani - See number 10.

His Constitution-shredding bullshit about blocking all of Hillary's SCOTUS appointees surely has to rank among the most egregious FUs to America this week from Republicans.

I knew I'd miss some. Some I just skipped over like the whole MSNBC crowd (Joe & Mika, Andrea Mitchell, Chuck Todd). I'd have to agree though, Ted Cruz is an exceptional asshole.

But after viewing that vid I'll have to move him over to the psycho/idiot column. The assholeness he displayed here was more organic though. I don't think he walked into the room planning to be an asshole. It just came out naturally as apart of his being a complete nut.

But not for his lack of trying. He's more of a pathetic weasel and coward who aspires to be an asshole. This week's Trump endorsement/non-endorsement shows he's as spineless as he is chicken shit. He's sort of a low rent Darrel Issa. One to keep your eye on.

I was trying to be charitable but when I heard the news he's planning nothing but wild goose chase investigations for the next couple of years the first thing that came to my mind was, "What a fucking asshole!".

Ever since Ailes was shit canned Lumpy McAsswipe has been rudderless and confused. His incoherent Twiitter rant this week was especially pathetic and entertaining. One of America's most consistent and reliable assholes.
