This week, the citizens of Pennsylvania stole the loving cup of stupid from the citizens of another politically calcified state, New Mexico.
Students of American history will remember Philadelphia as the first capital of the new United States of America after the ratification of the Constitution. That city was the center of American politics and political life, but ten years later it lost that distinction to the swampy lands of Washington in the District of Columbia. On June 11th in 1800, Philly faded into the background in favor of Washington. Power had shifted, and the state reverted back to its trade, commerce, and agriculture. Pennsylvania's namesake, William Penn, was a prominent writer and Quaker and the state is in his debt for his efforts to make it a showcase for commerce. Penn's son, Thomas, came to Pennsylvania in 1732 and during the nine years of his stay there he successfully negotiated the sale of 1.2 million acres of land from an indigenous Indian tribe to the new province of Pennsylvania. He died 15 years before Philadelphia became the capital of that state (or commonwealth as it adopted the British term).
Pennsylvania is a very diverse place, and it is a state with a bifurcated political landscape. Most of rural PA is conservative, but hardcore liberals populate its cities. The state is an energy state with abundant resources, and it is home to a prestigious private ivy league research university, the University of Pennsylvania (located in Philadelphia) along with Carnegie Mellon, Swarthmore, and Villanova. It's proud of its working class and its historical intellectual prowess, but the recent mid-term victory of a bumbling, oafish hipster politician John Fetterman, over a medical doctor of national repute is puzzling and reflects the rampant spread of stupid.

“Deal!”
The Rats want JF’s wife in the Senate, nothing more or less. She ran his campaign while he was recovering from the stroke.
Its not stupidity, is it?
It’s Deep State stealing the election.
And AT aiding and abetting Deep State by ginning up a game of lets-you-and-him-fight that keeps us at each other’s throats.
My advice: Don’t play.
We have one common enemy: Deep State.
BTW, if our fellow citizens were that stupid, Deep State wouldn’t have to steal elections, would it?
.
The bottom line is simply that most “Americans” are idiots.
Most on our side have no idea how Fetterman won. While Republicans were begging people to get to the polls, the Ds flooded campuses with hundreds of thousands of ballots, hoping 20-30% were returned. Gen Z returned many to the convenient drop boxes, ensuring victory over the Stupid Party. Thank you China! Thank you COVID rules!
He won ONLY because there are 500,000 more registered Dems..and they voted party line.
Well put bro.
“..._but hardcore liberals populate its cities...”
A universal problem.
Started when they picked. Dr. Oz as the nominee. I mean they couldn’t even pick a true Pennsylvanian. I still can’t believe they pick a guy from Jersey.
Uncle Festerman steps down and his wife takes his place in the Senate in 3....2....1....
If your vote really counted, do you believe they would let you do it? - mark twain.
This is good. Not in an absolute way, but relatively speaking. It was this bad for years but at least people are paying attention now.
The state’s other senator (Casey) pioneered the tactic of avoiding the media and his opponent and letting party machinery wisk him into office. His initial campaign for senate hinged largely on keeping his face out of the media and tricking elderly people into thinking that he was actually his dead father, and he has stayed in office mostly by virtue of having the PA state Republican party undermine the support of his challengers.
They are EVIL AND PSTUPID!!! WORSE COMBO EVER! Don’t spend a PENNY in these CORRUPT STATES and CITIES!
I’m with you. I don’t think Americans are this stupid.
On the other hand, I think there are too many corrupt people in charge and in our media.
Florida banned mass-mail ballots and vote harvesting, look at the result.
You don't get a 52% compared to 10% mail-in rate by accident, or happenstance.
PURE EVIL!
Maybe Soros hacked the voting machines in Pa.
The fix was in, abortion is in fashion in PA. They could have ran a garbage can against oz. oh wait, they did.. And the moloch worshiper won.
