I think the bigger problem is that so many of them are Catholic, i.e. religiously conservative.

Being Appalachian, I get the insulting nature of coastal elites. Hardly a day goes by without wanting to reach out and smack one.

Still. Republicans have also been putting up billboards courting the Latino vote. They're in Latin. For real...latin. That's over in Texas. Not kidding. How is that less insulting?

Let's be real here. Putting up billboards in Spanish can be taken two ways:

"I'm insulted. I've been here my whole life and I speak English as good as or better than any other American!" (Because it's all about me and MY feelings. I represent ALL immigrants)

-or-

"Hey that's nice! After all the divisive rhetoric, it's cool to see some political ads designed to engage and be welcomeming our newer immigrants from below our southern border. Those Democrats are really reaching out. Maybe they're not the baby eating demons I've been told about."

I'll remind readers that the United States does NOT have a national language, despite what the racist and xenophobic MoFos amongst us would have you believe. It is absolutely appropriate and American to have a political ad in any language you want. Might want to put it where the people who speak that language will see it, but other than that...it's all good.

See? Republicans should have put theirs in the graveyard since Latin is pretty much a dead language and that's where the dead people are. Maybe then they wouldn't have insulted Latino voters, who are alive and well btw, so egregiously. Would have helped selecting models who looked Latin rather than Latino as well, probably.

Well, except for the folks dying of heat stroke because Republicans have ensured they're not allowed water breaks while out roofing in the hot burning Texas sun. Hard to maintain those hard line conservative family values when you're dead. Just saying.

Hey birdy, I think maybe you've been reading too much Ted. His tendency to knee jerk an automatic --not well thought out or researched-- "hot take" seems to be rubbing off on you. Take my hand, let me pull you out of that rabbit hole before you spiral.

Let's have a cup of tea and discuss the Chick-Fil-A inspired "eat less cats" billboard ads the Republicans have put up in Phoenix. I'm feeling subversive. Republicans are hurting the feelings of cows and chickens all over America with bad Grammer AND callousesness with that one. It really is too much. It's like their whole campaign is run by a bunch of morons escaped from clown school.
