A trans and intersex activist vying to replace disgraced Maine Senate wannabe Graham Platner as the Democratic candidate has gone viral for their absurd answer about their qualifications in a debate Thursday.
Asked by a moderator what qualifies them for the top office, longshot hopeful Ashley Webb responded with a bizarre rambling string of loopy reasons.
“I ran for office several times. Didn’t win, but I did run,” Webb chuckled.
“And then I’m a songwriter, and then I write my own books, and then I suppose my transparency,” Webb said. “I wouldn’t lie to the people, and I wouldn’t deceive the people like we’re being deceived right now. Like we’re getting lied, like smoke and mirrors.
“Like what’s going on with ICE. Pretend like these victims did something wrong. Like it’s unacceptable,” Webb said. “And I suppose the biggest thing is like I’m just an angry citizen right now, and if I get elected, I’d be an angry senator.
“And I think that would be their worst nightmare.”
Platner was forced out of the race amid rape and other serious sexual-abuse allegations, sending the party into turmoil.

A reply worthy of a beauty contest. A face worthy of a paper bag.

So a trans activist gave an absurd debate answer. That’s totally expected.
The surprise would be if such a person instead spoke rationally.
