Gasbags

This is the Republican senator from Ohio, J.D. Vance:

Apparently this fucking cluck is out guarding his woodpile from the eeeevil Chinese spy balloon.

Also apparently either this nimrod doesn't - or he assumes his other wingnut constituents don't - know or care that the maximum effective range of his billybadass AR-15 knockoff is not 40,000+ feet but about, umm...1,500 yards. 

I don't really care so much that this nitwit is cosplaying some sort of Air Raid Warden. You be you, peckerhead.

What's irking is that there are a whole basketful of deplorables out there who eat this nonsense up.

It's the exact sort of thing that we had last week in the U.S. House where We the People got our tax dollars used to condemn "socialism".

Y'know what people like this chucklefuck also called "socialism"?

The 40-hour week.

Workplace safety regulations.

Pollution controls.

Old age pensions.

The G.I. Bill.

The New Deal.

Yeah. It's just that stupid.

As stupid as a faux hillbilly out guarding his woodpile from a balloon he couldn't do a goddamn thing to if he fired every round of 5.56 in Ohio.
