So regarding the Jefferson County and #AllEyesOnKentucky trending here's what you're not being told:

KY Dem governor Beshear issues panicky orders to kung flu-proof the primaries after delaying them a month.

A GOP state rep sued to reopen polling places

motherjones.com/politics/2020/…

It's hurting both the GOP and Dem primaries, you see. EVERYONE is getting equally fucked by this idiot Beshear.

Beshear, who won by virtue of the Democrats driving out hundreds of thousands of voters in Louiville last year who ONLY voted in the governor race; GOP swept the rest.

I TOLD YOU motherfuckers Beshear was a fucking idiot, that he was corrupt, but did anyone listen to the Fudge? NOOOOOOO.

'Oh, when he as the state AG gave his old law firm/biggest donors the opioid lawsuit, and let them cash out by getting paid first only to fuck Kentucky over when the pharma company declared bankruptcy? Oh that's just WAY TOO COMPLICATED to understand you silly country rube.'

Right now, the big race is the Senate race, where McConnell will defend his seat against whoever survives the Dem's bloodbath.

And it has been a BLOODBATH. OHHHHH MYYYYY.

See, it started with McGrath in 2018.

Amy McGrath tried to run in KY-6, centered around Lexington, for the House seat there against Andy Barr. The left tried to sell her HARD as a moderate when she was on video bragging about being 'the most progressive person in Kentucky'. She lost, by a very tight margin.

HOWEVER, her strategy was this: she assumed she's have high margins in the city, so she focused her campaign on all the rural areas AROUND Lexington that are normally seas of GOP. The 'Red for Ed' jackasses helped her shore up the numbers.

She still lost, but it was close.

Now, last year in the lead up to the primaries, McGrath appears out of nowhere again after having hit in shame for 6 months. There was talk of the really big local sports radio guy Matt Jones being in the Dem primaries.

History lesson, McConnell and Matt Jones have had an off-again on-again feud going for over a fucking DECADE. It's kinda fucking funny.

ANYWAYS. Matt Jones at that point has his radio show and had a new television show.

He got booted off the television show similar to how that one guy who tried to challenge Trump in the GOP primaries this year got booted off his radio show, this was a McConnell campaign move. It happens, you know, no biggie.

Then Amy McGrath tried to get him booted off radio.

Matt Jones backs down, announces he isn't going to run in the primaries. Attributes this (accurately) to McGrath basically being the 'chosen' sacrifice to McConnell so he has an easy win.

KY gubernational politics are fucking WEIRD if you couldn't tell.

So, McGrath is still progressive AF, and I'm still trying to find a recording of the rally where Biden came and stumped for her in 2018 because it is a VERY INTERESTING peek at 2018 pre-primary Biden. VERRRY interesting. Like 'where the fuck did 2019 Biden comes from' interesting

HOWEVER, the Dems are still trying to package her as a moderate.

And the far left idiots bought into the Dems own propaganda which was directed at undecided voters, and are now pushing this guy named Booker to challenge McConnell.

Booker's stronghold is Louisville.

Louisville where, again, the Dems and Red for Ed (but I repeat myself) churned out a couple hundred votes who came in and ONLY voted for Beshear in the governors race to unseat former GOP governor Bevin.

Typical Dem hellscape. Large crime rate, US capital of human trafficking.

ANYWAYS.

So, Booker at the last minute now is getting Matt Jones to endorse him, which for Matt Jones (I've listened to him for years for sports radio) is probably more of a 'FUCK YOU' to Amy McGrath and the Dems than anything else.

And just like that, all those hundreds of thousands of far left voters in Louisville that the Dems ballot-harvested and bussed the FUCK out of to beat Bevin are now left with one polling station. Lexington is also fucked, thus why a GOP state rep sued to stop Beshear's order.

Do you know who ISN'T fucked as badly by all this?

Rural Kentucky.

Where McGrath's base of Dem voters is.

Matt Jones has a LOT more sway in Lexington than Louisville, as he and UofLouisville have also feuded for over a decade.

Both cities got fucked, the rurals didn't.

HMMMM

Beshear has already shot Kentucky's economy in the dick with all of his bullshit Kung Flu orders. Most businesses are just straight up unable to function normally at this point in the state, and most of the restrictions are still ongoing.

But this? It reads very much like the primary is being straight up thrown to McGrath.

Who doesn't stand a fucking chance against McConnell.

Because here's the real deal that's going on right now:

There's an unspoken deal between the GOP and the Dems in Kentucky.

The deal is, the Dems get to keep Louisville as a complete shithole and run the state capital, Frankfort, like a fucking white trash mafia (you'd understand if you ever drove through Frankfort. Calling it a city is generous).

In exchange GOP gets the lion share of congress seats

Bevin, the idealistic fool who was given the Trump treatment with misquotes and personal attacks and outright fucking slander for YEARS before Trump rode down the escalator, broke this unofficial deal when he started trying to break the Dem power block in Louisville.

He went after the corrupt as fuck University of Louisville board of trustees. He tried to clean up the crime in Louisville. He pushed back against the autonomy Lexington and Louisville (ie, the Dem strongholds) have in state laws.

And the entire Dem party came down on his head.

Irony of ironies, Beshear was the state AG at the time and sued to block virtually every action Bevin took.

Seriously. More state legal resources were spent in Beshear and Bevin's legal slapfights than virtually any other efforts over those four years.

And then Louisville elected Beshear.

And now Kentucky is declining back into its former shithole status.

So I'm done. I'm out. Gone. Already got an offer in on a condo in another state closer to my family. Putting my money where my mouth is and all that.

Deuces Kentucky.

I'm out.
