The Governor of Maine, Paul LePage, is one example of a major RWNJ. He said that Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump made a “stupid move” when he said he won’t concede the election.
Le Page said:
“I think that’s an absolute stupid move.”
“Not accepting the results, I think, is a stupid comment. I mean, come on, get over yourself!”
LePage has talked about supporting Trump before. He may not like everything Trump says, but he definitely hates Hillary Clinton.
LePage said this in an interview:
“I’ll say this about the two presidential candidates: Donald Trump — OK, my grandmother’s around, she gives him bar soap to clean his mouth out. She did it to me all time. It’s not a problem. But I will say this: When Hillary opens her mouth, people die.”
He thinks that the Clinton campaign is a “criminal enterprise.”
This is, by far, not the first bit of crazy to come out of this man’s mouth. He has said that he is a lot like Donald Trump, and that’s why he supports the Republican nominee.
He does have that right. They both love to insult people and go off on crazy tangents on various topics. LePage said they are cut from the same cloth.
Comedy Central’s Samantha Bee gave this apt description of the Maine Governor after this comment:
“Specifically, the loud, grossly outdated cloth of your uncle Bobby’s leisure suit. Like Trump, the governor’s unfiltered mouth garbage is a feature not a bug.”
This is the same man who wanted to deny life-saving medicine for heroin addicts. He also said once that he has a special three-ring binder full of criminals and drug dealers. He made racist comments about black drug dealers being in Maine.
I’m sure that these two nut jobs would get along well. Let’s just keep them out of office.
