Senator John Kennedy one-liners about the Graham Platner controversy
X ^ | 07/07/2026 | Overton

Senator John Kennedy somehow managed to squeeze two BRUTAL but hilarious one-liners into a short answer about the Graham Platner controversy.

The line that stole the show involved having “an IQ above a toaster”…before taking a direct shot at Senator Schumer.

KENNEDY: “With respect to Mr. Platner, he was nominated by the Hamas wing of the Democratic Party, which is in control.”

“With respect to the new allegations or revelations about him, I, of course, was completely shocked.”

“Who could possibly have seen this coming? It’s not like there were signs or something.”

“I’ll tell you who saw it coming. Every American who was paying attention, and who has an IQ above a toaster, knew that this guy’s motherboard was fried.”

“Even my colleague, Senator Schumer, who can’t even cook a cheeseburger, saw this coming.”

That was rough.

Oh man. Replace Alito with JD and make Kennedy VP for 1-2 years. Independents will lighten up.

Kennedy is capable of throwing out one zinger after another. Schumer is disarmed completely compared to Kennedy.

It's going to be amazing to witness how quickly Platner disappears from all mention, anywhere. He's going to sink like a stone.

He'll be replaced by someone nastier.

Let's set up booths at all of the democRAT/DemoKKKrat rallies and speeches.

Discount SS Tattoos

Both permanent and washable.

The washable ones will be for those weekend Hate-fests, where no Jews are allowed, but you have to go back to work Monday morning, and keep your Hate in check until the next weekend.

If this GOP Kennedy was a Democrat, they would write songs about him, and feature him in TV shows and movies. He is entertaining.
