    In 2015, 2016, as well as 2017, "Crazy/Stupid Republican of the Day" published profiles of Tony Shipley, a now former member of the Tennessee House of Representatives who won office in 2008 in a race that saw him use the underhanded tactic of running websites in his opponent's name to misrepresent his positions, and send out racist fliers that featured the head of that African American opponent mounted on a Blackbird. He also went off in 2009 and threatened to do something "like what happened in 1860" should gay marriage pass, and that if it did, "God drops California off into the sea". A few days after that rant, he complained about gay adoption and made mention of "Sodom and Gomorrah". A short time later, he submitted legislation to attempt to allow law enforcement to conduct warrantless searches if they had reason to "suspect terrorism" (4th Amendment much?) and when his colleagues tried asking what possible plots he thought might justify it, he pretended to be privy to top secret information. While in office, Shipley also voted to attempt to nullify the Affordable Care Act, to prevent the United Nations' Agenda 21 Environmental Treaty from being implemented, and several blatantly unconstitutional attempts to outlaw abortion, outright. In the 2016 elections, Shipley lost in the GOP Primary for that seat after finishing second in a four-candidate field with only 21% of the vote., over 30 points shy of what he needed for victory. He has not resurfaced in an election since, as of this posting. At this time, we have yet to see any indication that Shipley will attempt to return to office somewhere in Tennessee for the first time since 2014 and will thus move on we’re going to move on and start profiling a different wacky Republican on this date instead. (Current crazy/stupid scoreboard, is now 682-30, since this was established in July 2014.)



    On this date one year ago, “Crazy/Stupid Republican of the Day” had its first profile of the sitting member of the U.S. House of Representatives from Ohio’s 8th District, Warren Davidson, who was first elected to office in June of 2016, shortly after former Speaker of the House John Boehner said, “F*** this s***,” and peaced out of of Congress. As part of the GOP gerrymandering of House districts after the 2010 elections, Boehner made sure that his own home district was galvanized to protect him from being booted by any Democratic challenger, making it the reddest district in all of Ohio. So when he retired, no less than fifteen…. Yes FIFTEEN Republicans battled it out like it was the goddamned Hunger Games to take his place in Ohio’s 6th for the remainder of his term, which Davidson then coasted to victory in the general special election to establish himself as the incumbent. A short time later, the vote was practically just done over again for the November election, this time with a SIXTEENTH Republican in the primary, and again breezed to victory against a Democrat, because of the +17 Republican lean in the Cook Partisan Voting Index. Almost immediately after arriving in Washington, D.C., Davidson issued what could be interpreted as a final “F*** you” to Boehner as he left office, immediately joining the Republican House Freedom Caucus that constantly was trying to bring about his downfall, and ultimately made Boehner resign in frustration to go work for the medical marijuana lobby. (We’re not going to lie, Boehner really does seem to be laughing last.)

    Now, our fair readers might be wondering… how the heck did a guy who’s only been in office for just about two years earn himself a place in CSGOPOTD?

    Well, that’s easy enough to answer. Warren Davidson seems to REALLY hate poor people.

    This series of posts never hesitates to thank Republicans who served in our armed forces for that service. However, we still reserve the right to call out those veterans for bulls*** unrelated to it when necessary. And while we’ll salute Warren Davidson for his time as a U.S. Army Ranger without hesitation, we still think it’s truly f***ed up that he went to a gathering of veterans to gripe about “moochers” who were within the V.A. Medical system, and kick them out of it. For someone well off like Davidson, maybe having your medical care paid for by the Department of Veteran’s Affairs isn’t a choice he has to make… but for every blue-collar veteran with injuries endured in the service without a six-figure salary to pay for physical or mental health treatments to be turned away? That… is some bulls***. And it’s frankly outrageous that someone would begin playing the “welfare queens” card on fellow service members like that. When people enlist, part of the agreement with the government that a service member gets is, after your service is over, the government helps you take care of your medical needs. That’s it. And there’s no whining about the cost, because men put their lives on the line.

    Sorry if we got up on a soapbox there, but that’s a topic near and dear to CSGOPOTD’s heart.

    Anyway, that one-off comment wasn’t the only time that Rep. Davidson popped off about who actually “deserves” medical coverage. At his first town hall as a Congressman in early 2017, Davidson was hammered with questions about the GOP’s wishes to repeal the Affordable Care Act, even if there was no replacement for it. Thus, the following exchange occurred, resulting in gasps and boos from those assembled:
    Constiuent: “My son did not have health insurance for four years, until the ACA when Medicaid was accepted. He didn’t have health insurance because he’s in the service industry. And that industry pays minimum wage and they keep their employees below a certain number of hours so that they cannot -- so that they don’t have to pay health insurance. So, many of the people that are on Medicaid are working, and they are the working poor. Under Trumpcare, one of the major ways to make health insurance affordable is to bring back catastrophic insurance, which is basically no insurance at all. Given that, given that preventative health care is the number one way to keep people healthy in our society, can you explain why my son and millions of others in his situation are not deserving of affordable, decent healthcare that has essential benefits so that he can stay healthy and continue working?”
    Warren Davidson: “OK, I don’t know anything about your son, but as you described him, his skills are focused in an industry that doesn’t have the kind of options that you want him to have for health care. So, I don’t believe that these taxpayers here are entitled [sic] to give that to him. I believe he’s got the opportunity to go earn those health benefits.
    Yes, he pretty much just told a woman that her son deserved to die because he wasn’t “skilled” enough, and that he has to “earn” the right to keep living. Great work, Warren. Making the GOP look real sympathetic out there. And if you’re wondering if he just misspoke, no, he doubled down on his statement.


    Davidson is also a climate change denier, thinks Sharia Law is a threat to the United States and our Constitution (even though the Establishment Clause of the First Amendment would defend against it quite nicely, but hey, why not be an Islamophobe?), would like to redefine marriage as only between one man and one woman while allowing businesses the “religious freedom” to discriminate against the LGBTQ community, and is a supporter of Personhood.

    If you’re thinking the above stories might be an indicator that Warren Davidson’s voting record has a mile-wide streak of being uncaring for his fellow Americans, you might be right:

    • January 27th, 2019: Warren Davidson voted against HJR 30, which was meant to express disapproval of Donald Trump not acting against Russian Federation for attacking our democracy. You see, he’s fine with our nation being sublet to Vladimir Putin.
    • January 23rd, 2019: Rep. Davidson voted against HR 648, because he was gleefully enjoying the longest government shutdown in history.
    • February 28th, 2019: Warren Davidson votes against HR 1112, a bill which would have required universal background checks on all firearm purchases, and close the gun show loophole.
    • March 14th, 2019: Rep. Davidson votes against HJR 46, which sane members of Congress voted for to reject Donald Trump’s “national emergency” regarding the U.S. border and his attempts to reallocate funds for a border wall without Congressional approval.
    • April 4th, 2019: Warren Davidson is one of 158 Republicans who choose to vote against the re-authorization of the Violence Against Women Act, likely because they feel the 2nd Amendment remaining absolute is more important than preventing people with a history of domestic abuse from owning a firearm (which statistics show, makes them more likely to use those firearms against women in their lives).
    • June 4th, 2019: Davidson votes against the Dreamers Act, because he’s too xenophobic and partisan to care about immigration reform.


    Regrettably, Warren Davidson inherited one of the seats in Congress that after the 2010 elections, John Boehner assured was gerrymandered with a partisan advantage enough to be nigh-impervious to any Democratic challenger. It showed in 2018, when he won re-election to another term in office. A month after the election, in December of 2018, Davidson actually submitted legislation right at the tail end of the Republican Congress for the “Buy a Brick, Build a Wall” Act that would allow private citizens to donate money towards the stupid, stupid idea of Donald Trump’s border wall on the U.S./Mexico border that would not only not prevent illegal immigration, but would cost billions of dollars in the process. We are fortunate that Democrats won control of the House, and none of Rep. Davidson’s brain-dead ideas will be coming to the floor for a vote anytime in the near future.

    These two stories right here... real presidents cancel their golf trips early when disaster happens, and the American people need someone to lead.

    Trump is actively going to say, "Why should I? It's California, and they don't like me enough to justify me leaving early. Maybe if they did, I'd think about it, but they don't, so f*** 'em."

    Pretty much. Trump lives for grudges which he nurses with fanatical devotion, he never forgives or forget slights against him, no matter how small, once he labels you an enemy, it’s for life. Considering Trump lost California to Hillary Clinton back in 2016, something that sticks in his craw to this day, given how he denigrated the state’s response to last year’s wildfires, it’s almost a given he’ll shrug off the earthquakes and won’t offer anything in the way of leadership which the citizens there would need. Petty? You betcha!

    Russia's state TV is obsessively bashing Trump's "low energy," "weak" parade with "rusty tanks." The hosts LOL at Trump's claim about "revolutionary war airports" & other historical flubs. "There's your city upon a hill, there's your world leader—and Martians have been defeated."

With the concentration camps, Trump threatening raids in sanctuary cities, and stories in the media about bad things happening to people who are here legally, maybe Trump will still pull some victory out of this because many are just too scared to participate in the census.
    The census wouldn't affect the electoral vote in 2020. Redistricting would likely occur in 2021 and 2022. The first presidential election with the new electoral map in 2024.

    I realize this. Not saying Trump needs it to win the Election with the exception that 'sticking it' to California and in general making things harder for brown people is popular with much of his base and will further entrench their support in 2020. If he wins, potentially having a more conservative House starting in 2023 will be a bonus, too!

    "Keeping children in 'cages' costs American taxpayers more than $4.5 million daily"

    "On Tuesday, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Inspector General (IG) released a blistering report, slamming the Department for substandard conditions where detained children didn’t have access to showers, changes of clothes, or hot meals.

    The IG called on DHS to “take immediate steps to alleviate dangerous overcrowding and prolonged detention of children and adults in the Rio Grande Valley.” But what is it costing taxpayers to detain children in squalor? According to calculations by Yahoo Finance, that figure stands at $4.7 million — per day.

    House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) criticized President Donald Trump, saying there had to be a “better way” of securing the borders. “We don’t think that we have to put children in cages to do it,” she said, calling Trump’s immigration policies “outside the circle of civilized human behavior.”

    Legally, unaccompanied children (UAC) and children with a parent or legal guardian are to be taken care of by the Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR), a program that is part of Health and Human Services (HHS). HHS says it has 13,000 children its agency’s care. Children are kept in one of two types of facilities: temporary (emergency influx shelters) and permanent. According to HHS, while it costs $256 a day to house children at permanent HHS facilities, the figure balloons at temporary shelters to $775 a night...

    ICE reports that it has currently detained 31,093 adults who are not convicted criminals or have pending criminal charges. The agency is currently conducting mass immigration raids across the country, which has prompted an outpouring of advice and support for undocumented immigrants. Once detained, the average detention for immigrants who have not been convicted of crimes or have pending criminal charges is 47.6 days. Responding to requests from Yahoo Finance, the agency shared that its adult average daily bed rate was $126.52. In addition to paying for raids against what ICE has labeled “other immigration violator,” taxpayers spend $3.9 million each day to detain undocumented immigrants. Considering the average length of detention, the U.S. will likely pay $187 million to hold all of the undocumented immigrants currently being detained.

    ‘The cruelty is the goal’

    But if these costs are high, it’s not being reflected in the level of care given to those being detained. Border Patrol’s own “TEDS Standards” requires that CBP make a “reasonable” effort to provide adults with showers after being held for 72 hours. Yet while in Border Patrol custody, the report found, “most single adults had not had a shower in CBP custody despite several being held for as long as a month.”

    Freshman Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) has said that there is “abuse” in the facilities, and that women were drinking water out of toilets. Some adult detention centers were described in the Inspector General’s report as having facilities with “standing room only.”

    The ACLU says that 7 children have died in custody or after being detained; while children recently released from custody drew pictures of themselves in cages. “The cruelty is the goal,” AOC tweeted after her visit.

    “It’s called “deterrence” - a policy stance that if our country inflicts enough pain on refugees, they will think twice before believing America is worth their dreams & aspirations..."

    Even this exchange is redundant -- you've already made exactly this same "point" in previous posts but it doesn't change the truth about said party.
    How was talking about Republicans a response to the concerns of a former cabinet secretary from the Obama administration?

    Do you also want to take the position that political discussion shouldn't include concerns about the effects of proposed policies in the future?

I'm not just addressing you, but all Republicans.

    Currently there is a 'So Called' Republican in the White House, and the Republicans control the Senate, and so on. So, why aren't you pointing a finger at them?

    If Democrats are able to be critical of Democratic Leaders, when they are actually in charge and responsible, why is it so hard for you to be critical of Republican Leaders?

    Is it Party Loyalty? Do you feel obligated to play Devil's Advocate even under the worst situations? Or do you truly believe that the Republicans are not to blame for anything; anything they do, or say, or simply any actions or inactions that result from what they do, or say, or don't do.

    How hard it must be to be a Republican, to defend Republican actions.
    There are areas where Democrats have political power, so even under the rationale that we should only look at what political figures have done, there is plenty to judge.

    We can look at what they're saying they'll do, which is relevant since the general elections are largely a choice between Republicans and Democrats. The typical expectation is that politicians only revealing what they think will get them enough votes, so there's also the question of whether they're more extreme in private. So far, many of them are on board with no restrictions on late-term abortion, getting rid of private health insurance, providing subsidized medical care to undocumented immigrants, and mandatory busing (I get the argument that Kamala Harris is saying that this should just be considered, but if she goes after Joe Biden in a debate because he was against it, she's taking the other position.)

    The positions Democrats take are also likely politically harmful to them, and the best chance Trump has of getting reelected. In New York magazine, Jonathan Chain describes some of the drawbacks.

    https://nymag.com/intelligencer/2019...ze-border.html

    There is a large body of research showing that voters tend to punish candidates that they perceive as holding extreme positions. Holding unpopular positions in fact tends to make a candidate less popular.

    And yet, as obvious as this simple observation might sound, the progressive intelligentsia has devoted enormous energy to denying it. The defensive impulse against any “centrist” critique is so impulsive and so widespread that bad, even silly, political rationalizations for taking reckless positions are now flourishing.

    Advocates of single-payer insurance dismiss polls showing wariness toward losing employer-sponsored insurance by insisting they can educate people out of this view:

    Very few people like private insurance companies. What they like are their doctors and hospitals. Once you explain to them that Medicare for All would allow them to KEEP their doctors--in fact have MORE choice b/c there is no "out of network" doctor--they are delighted.

    — Rep. Pramila Jayapal (@RepJayapal) July 2, 2019
    The giveaway here is the phrase “once you explain to them.” That’s not how politics usually works. You can try to explain to people that they’ll be better off trading their employer-sponsored insurance for a government plan. And I agree — most people probably would be better off. But getting people to change their minds isn’t just a simple matter of explaining the facts to them. The other side gets to make arguments, too. There’s just no reason to believe Democratic arguments in favor of single-payer would persuade more voters than Republican arguments against it. It’s surely possible to turn people toward single-payer in a curated information environment where voters are exposed to one-sided arguments selected by advocates, but this has no bearing on real-world political outcomes.

    An even more baffling argument for taking unpopular stances is that the Republicans are going to lie anyway, so who cares? “Neither Warren nor those around her have ever bought into the idea that proposals like [eliminating private insurance] are sufficiently potent ammunition for Republicans to warrant backing off,” reported my colleague Gabriel Debenedetti recently, “It’s common for her supporters, and Sanders’s, to point out that Republicans will likely accuse Democrats of wanting the most extreme possible version of their policies anyway — open borders! Full socialism! Gun confiscation! — regardless of the identity of the nominee, so moderating to avoid that is a fool’s errand that would only alienate their own backers.”

    This view is, quite simply, insane. Obviously, Republicans are going to say all kinds of nasty and frequently false things about the Democratic nominee. But there’s an enormous difference between a world in which Republicans accuse a Democrat of holding an unpopular position, the Democratic candidate denies it, and mainstream media treat the charge as sketchy or false, and a world in which the Democratic candidate openly advocates an unpopular position.
    It’s true that Republicans claimed Barack Obama’s health-care plan created death panels. But only about 40 percent of the public believed the lie. If Obama had actually stood onstage and promised to enact death panels, the number would have been a lot higher than 40 percent, and Obamacare probably could not have passed. It’s hard for me to understand how the lesson from this episode is that Democrats should go ahead and endorse unpopular policies.
    As for whether I'm critical of Republican leaders, I have said numerous times that I didn't vote for Trump, don't plan to vote for him in the future, and would back your party's frontrunner Joe Biden over Trump in the presidential election.

    1. There's no evidence to prove that enough are getting through to breach 1% of the families being separated and put in tortuous conditions either. Your response here paints a picture: You'd rather assume there are far more getting through to allow this behavior to continue while you say it's bad but do nothing to hold your party responsible for doing it.

    2. This administration isn't going to try and improve conditions for these people, as all evidence points to them making things worse over time. Defying the Courts to do so as well with an officiall telling us "We don't have to provide Soap for Safe & Sanitary Conditions". How is treating these people like garbage making this country better? How can anyone worth being a Leader in this country believe that this actually does good for us? Why do you refuse to see how politicians who defend and excuse this aren't doing this for any potential 'Good'?

    As for whether I'm critical of Republican leaders, I have said numerous times that I didn't vote for Trump, don't plan to vote for him in the future, and would back your party's frontrunner Joe Biden over Trump in the presidential election.
    If you support the actions of and excuse the ones doing it who ARE supporting Trump and his policies - You are supporting Trump and his policies. It's a fact. There really is no getting around this without some serious brain gymnastics.
