Short thread:
While most are fixated on 2020, #NC03 primary voting to select Walter Jones’ successor occurs next Tuesday.
I’ll save Politico some suspense: In the Republican primary, a crazy person will get through.

Some tough choices for wingnuts here. Vote for the guy with the shotgun, who shot clay pigeons marked “Anti Gun” and “Green New Deal,” or...
...the guy holding the AR?
The pediatrician who ‘shopped Trump into her ad, or...
...another person with zero political experience—because having no political experience is only bad if you’re AOC, apparently—and whose ads are paid for by...
...Club For Growth?
Maybe this guy, whose truck...
...was sporting this abomination of a sign, a relic from a previous defeat, just one day after it was announced that Congressman Jones was in hospice care?
Republican #NC03 candidates all appear to be running on the same platform: Pro guns, pro Trump, pro “Wall,” and anti-abortion. What they fail to address are education, healthcare, and other issues that matter to district voters.
If you’re an NC03 Democrat, PLEASE vote next Tuesday, and PLEASE fight for the eventual Democratic nominee.
If there’s any humor to be found in this mess, it’s that these ads all ran during a Jeopardy broadcast this evening. I can’t picture any NC03 Republican voter rushing home to catch Jeopardy on a Saturday evening.
Two of these candidates mention their “I support Trump’s proposal for term limits” credentials, while failing to mention that not once has a Republican Member of Congress seriously brought up the subject in the two years Trump’s been in office.
