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.

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.
“I wouldn’t lie to the people, and I wouldn’t deceive the people like we’re being deceived right now.”
Too easy...
She has a dick, Jim.
A face worthy of a flaming paper bag and a bunch of wet hammers.
those long winters can do strange things to a person....
Didn’t Stephen King write a book about a guy like this clown.
How many people are we talking about?
“You don’t know Maine”
That’s right, we used to respect and like you backward, perverse people.
Nope. Where do you think all of Stephen King’s stories come from?
“Are there ANY normal people in Maine?”
Not in the Democrat Party apparently.
