After this's all over, I hope the U.S. gov't bills Trump for the damage he's done to our reputation

[D.o.S.]

would trade in a heartbeat tbqh

[Strange Tales]

Well, I know nothing about LePage and now I don't want to. Can't imagine anyone actually wanting to trade for Christie.

[D.o.S.]

He's like Donald Trump but more French Canadian and actually in office.

Here's a sample

“These are guys by the name D-Money, Smoothie, Shifty. … These type of guys that come from Connecticut and New York. They come up here, they sell their heroin, then they go back home. Incidentally, half the time they impregnate a young, white girl before they leave. Which is the real sad thing, because then we have another issue that we have to deal with down the road.”

Has anybody fact checked that statement for accuracy?

That's a pretty high impregnation rate. Those Mainer hotties must be really fertile.

[hbombgraphics]

yeah a 50% impregnation rate seems pretty high

[Iommic Pope]

Maybe they're only doing it the baby making way half the time?
Or only half those guys like to do it that way?

[Chankgeez]

Maybe somebody here could contact LePage's office for clarification.

I nominate D.o.S.

[Iommic Pope]

Fuck yes.
That would be a rad little piece of investigative journalism.

[D.o.S.]

fwiw here's the official [non] apology

" "I was going impromptu and my brain didn't catch up to my mouth," LePage said. "Instead of Maine women I said white women. ... If you go to Maine, you can see it's 95 percent white.

If I was perfect, I would be a reporter," LePage said. "If you want to make it racist, go ahead and do what you want."

There's a fairly common bumpersticker around these parts that reads 61% (the percentage of the state that didn't vote for this useless piece of scatological refuse), and his politics are as bad as his corrections.

[Chankgeez]

Yeah, but what about that statistic on the impregnations?

[hbombgraphics]

Maybe somebody here could contact LePage's office for clarification.

I nominate D.o.S.

Seconded

[snipelfritz]

I like how his gangsta names are from a 90's sitcom.

The answer to your question can probably be found here:

There is nobody to vote for, democracy is over.
The good news is that once democracy is over we may stop trying to make dictatorships in other parts of the world democracies.
