"The first thing I learned this morning is that Candace Owens wants us to
invade Australia. You might be curious about what prompted this bellicose idea:
it’s because they are managing the pandemic better than we are.
“When do we deploy troops to Australia?” she said before the Victoria lockdown
was eased. “When do we invade Australia and free an oppressed people who are
suffering under a totalitarian regime?
“When do we spend trillions of dollars to spread democracy in Australia?” she
added. “Australia currently, make no mistake, is a tyrannical police state. Its
citizens are quite literally being imprisoned against their will. So when do we
deploy?”
It seems she’s just following the lead of Ted Cruz.
Owens’ comments follow a similar swipe against Australian authorities made last
week by Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) who tweeted: “The Covid tyranny of their
current government is disgraceful and sad,” before adding: “Individual liberty
matters.”
It’s embarrassing. Don’t worry, Australia, these are just the stupid
Republicans that are currently afflicting our country, they don’t speak for us.
With any luck, they’ll be dying off thanks to their own mismanagement of our
health policy.
If you felt like turning around and invading us to liberate our country from a
totalitarian, insane political party, I wouldn’t object. I’d be grateful."
Via Kevin O'Brien, who wrote "There is stupid, then there is
Republican
stupid."
