Gun Nut Extremist Runs for Congress Representing Uvalde

You have to wonder what the living f*** is going on with voters in Uvalde.

Uvalde is in Congressional District 23 currently represented by nobody since Tony Gonzalez resigned after his affair with a staffer was revealed. CD 23 runs from San Antonio to El Paso. Abbott hasn’t called for a special election for fear that republicans will lose the seat as many of their candidates have lost across the country. But Uvalde is different.

After the horrible shooting by a mentally ill kid, who had easy access to firearms, voters in Uvalde voted for the very same person who provided easy access to the firearm, Greg Abbott. 19 children were slaughtered. 2 teachers lost their lives. Tax payers paid for the destruction of the school and for a new school to be built. Families were torn apart and yet they voted for Abbott the guy who made getting a firearm as easy as walking into a Walmart and buying a military style weapon. It was as if the voters in Uvalde were giving the finger to the families of the kids who were killed.

Now to add insult to injury the Republican Party has nominated an extremist gun nut who is so extreme even the NRA keeps their distance from him. Brandon Herrera has absolutely no credible experience to run for office. He is a Youtuber. He owns a gun manufacturing company. He is an extremist. He is a UFO, Unqualified For Office and he is endorsed by Trump, the worst human being in the world since Hitler.

The Republican Party is making fun of Uvalde and at this point they deserve it.

    I wonder whether the Uvalde voters are just clueless — willfully or unintentionally — about the disconnect of their loss and their politics. It’s appropriate to be grieving the community’s losses with a unified effort. In the face of that, though, what about those who voted for the flexibilities of gun ownership to increase and to continue the proliferation of weapons in every home. Sickening politics? Or just unintentional party loyalty?
