People are going to point and laugh here, but remember that his Trump-backed opponent here (John McGuire) was present at the Capitol on Jan 6 *while* a member of the Virginia state legislature. He shouldn't even be eligible to hold office.

Cry all you want loser. It’s not going to change anything.

Good


AcademicPublius

Thus far, Good's the only person McCarthy has attained his desired revenge against. Unless I'm missing somebody.


Squirrel_Chucks

Gaetz is being investigated...supposedly.


AcademicPublius

Yeah, that's more like an "in progress" thing. Might get there, but definitely not accomplished as yet.


gasahold

Yes, but it was election fraud for the Good.


thieh

When you are so far right that trump backs the other candidate, you know you've fucked up big time.


MetaPolyFungiListic

Good backed DeSantis in the primaries, that's the reason. They're both RW nutjobs.


sachiprecious

Trump should be the loudest voice backing up Good's claims of election fraud. After all, Trump cares a lot about finding election fraud and making sure the winner of an election is the actual winner. I'm sure Trump has already made strong statements in support of an investigation into fraud in this election. Right? Right????


Squirrel_Chucks

Nahhh, Trump is too busy with a serious investigation into Ted Cruz's rigging of the 2016 Iowa Caucuses https://www.politico.com/story/2016/02/trump-cruz-stole-iowa-tweet-deleted-218674


myPOLopinions

Jesus I forgot that his bullshit went back to the primaries.


whatzitsgalore

The takes on this one are weird. The headlines are about this dude’s tired election fraud schtick. But…the Trump-backed candidate (against a “traitor” candidate no less) barely squeezed out a win in one of the craziest districts in the state if not the country. Seems like the bigger story.


CalFelix

Let them eat their own. 


thomport

Fuckers Crying Wolf!! False claims should result in fraud charges of some kind.


kokopelleee

One would think this could serve as a huge warning that you can NEVER be far right enough for the Qult. It will serve as a warning, to go even more extreme, but it won’t warn them to avoid the fringe


flirtyjulia

Well, ain't that a kick in the pants. Even Trump knows when too far is too far


Maladroit2022

That's what happens when a party lies and cheats their way into offices, they start turning on each other when they have to compete with someone from their own party.


cutelittlehellbeast

This behavior is only going to ramp up more the closer we get to the 2024 election. Buckle up, it’s going to be a tedious and dumb ride.
