Heard this one before. How long before we hear about his extramarital affairs and the abortion he paid for. It's always projection with these assholes.

EDIT: My bad, this guy just paid for his future wife's abortion. Rules for thee and not for me. Slightly different hypocrisy for this guy.

[-] Erasmus@lemmy.world 26 points 5 months ago

Do a background search on this asshole. He is one more hypocrite.

Him and his wife already had an abortion - that’s fine IMO but fuck him for telling everyone else how to manage their reproductive rights.

He’s a crook too. Shocker right? A fishy Republican? All the news sites here in NC have been doing reports on his business practices over the last several years - prior to him getting in government and apparently paying Federal income taxes wasn’t part of his MO.

Of course he has played it up like ‘poor me I couldn’t afford it’ and blamed all his losses on NAFTA. The guy is a real piece of work. He makes no mistakes it’s all someone else’s fault.

somebody should give that guy ass-cancer and tell him he can't get it removed because he couldn't keep his pants up.

Anyone know where to get your hands on a uranium butt plug?

[-] FuglyDuck@lemmy.world 3 points 5 months ago

not that would be radioactive enough to do the, uh, job, no.

(you can buy some depleted uraninum in small cubes and such for people trying to collect a periodic table of the elements, etc. Or you can just buy the ore on amazon...)

[-] disguy_ovahea@lemmy.world 3 points 5 months ago

Cubes? Yikes.

Testicular cancer would be a better comparison.

Remember kids, if it's a legitimate rape the body has ways of shutting the whole thing down. (For the younger folks here, a republican actually said that)

[-] dohpaz42@lemmy.world 12 points 5 months ago

At least he’s no longer with us. Praise Jeebus.

This wingnut was just talking about how great the Jim Crowe era was for black folks. N. Carolina racists love this guy.

[-] PeepinGoodArgs@reddthat.com 8 points 5 months ago

I think that's a different person. Byron Donald's said the Jim Crow thing.

[-] fritobugger2017@lemmy.world 8 points 5 months ago

You are right. So many nutters that you need a scorecard to know who is who.

[-] Mouselemming@sh.itjust.works 22 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

Every child, every fetus, every embryo is the result of some man getting his dick out of his pants. Women could parade around like Gustave Corbet's L'Origine Du Monde

(NSFW, obviously. Not sure if I can put the link without the image popping up?) and it wouldn't cause a damn thing unless some asshat with a penis like him went poking it around.

Every Abortion Begins With A Penis.

GOP governor candidate can go sit on a cactus.

[-] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 13 points 5 months ago

That’s rude. As a slutty woman I think even prudes should be allowed bodily autonomy as well.

[-] dohpaz42@lemmy.world 7 points 5 months ago

Please don’t be from North Carol… fuck! 😡

[-] mechoman444@lemmy.world 4 points 5 months ago

I mean ok. I'll take it. Just reinstate roe v. Wade.

[-] nul9o9@lemmy.world 1 points 5 months ago

Right? What's the point of his statement?

[-] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 1 points 5 months ago

An attempt to further associate abortion with the perceived immorality of sluttiness and to assert that all needed abortions are due to preventable choices on the part of the individual needing them. I wish it was true, but I live in reality.

[-] NoIWontPickAName@kbin.earth 3 points 5 months ago

Clayton there wants people to accept white pride?

Ok sure, not sure what I’m proud of though.

Increased skin cancer chance?

[-] ShittyBeatlesFCPres@lemmy.world 2 points 5 months ago

In fairness, I can’t keep my kilt down.
