Florida GOP congressional candidate Lavern Spicer, known for her anti-trans idiocy, tweeted the following yesterday:

"There are no pronouns in the Constitution."

Her encore tweet?

"Jesus Christ never introduced himself using pronouns."

Except, um, he did, according to the Bible: "Jesus said, I am he." (John 18:6)

Isn’t “We” a pronoun?

I have tried to see if there is any other side to this, but other than a comment by Eric Swalwell, my search didn’t find anything.

I’m sure the left enjoys your endorsement of the Democratic in that district. Good job.

known for her anti-trans idiocy

Anti-trans idiocy? So opposing idiocy is idiocy? She might be wrong on the specifics in this case but in general, she is absolutely right to oppose trans-genderism. We need to recognize mental illness and anyone who thinks they are mis-gendered is mentally ill.

I think most of those posting on this thread are missing the point.

I would prefer our Congress Critters understand what a pronoun is.

If that makes me a dem plant, then you might want to re-examine how you gauge your candidates.

” known for her anti-trans idiocy”

So you are going to post an article from a “news” source that puts that little gem in the first sentence?

What a stupid article!
If the Republican candidate says, “pronouns”, he obviously means using “him/he” etc to describe men who turn round and put on dresses and all the trans nonsense going on.
Why do you even post articles like these here anyways?

I didn't call you a dem plant. Obviously you're illiterate or simply stupid.

” her anti-trans IDIOCY “?

There you have it. If you aren’t on-board with surgically altering the human body, you’re an “ idiot “.

In that particular passage, though most translators did choose to use “I am he”, the Greek words suggest that Jesus was really saying “I AM”... thus invoking the very name of God onto himself.
