Ya gotta keep it simple for the GOP rubes…
If simplicity is the key to good communication, a woman running to be the governor of Georgia has made it extremely easy for voters to know her priorities.
That’s because Kandiss Taylor is running in the GOP gubernatorial primary with a campaign slogan of “Jesus Guns Babies.”
Taylor’s website says she’s an educator with two decades of experience, but for some reason she chose not to put commas after “Jesus” or “Guns.”
Although Taylor probably intended the slogan to be red meat for conservative Georgia voters, it started trending on social media after it turned out to be appetizing to snarky Twitter users too.
And you gotta feed the GOP base’s bloodlust…
In campaign ad, GOP Senate candidate shoots gun at actors playing Biden, Pelosi and Sen. Mark Kelly
A Republican businessman seeking his party’s nomination to face Sen. Mark Kelly (D-Ariz.) in the fall has released a new Western-style TV ad in which the candidate, dressed as a sheriff, fires a gun at actors portraying Kelly, President Biden and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.).
The candidate, energy executive Jim Lamon, said in a tweet that the ad will air during the Super Bowl.
Kelly is the husband of former congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords (D-Ariz.), who was shot in the head while greeting constituents outside a Tucson supermarket in 2011. Six people were killed in the shooting rampage and many others were injured.
Shannon Watts, the founder of the group Moms Demand Action for Gun Sense in America, called the ad “disgusting.”

There was a time, not so long ago, when this sort of thing would have been roundly condemned by people of all political affiliation.
