I confess I’ve been watching this story about the Berkeley Hippie and Nancy Pelosi’s husband with a growing sense of amusement.
Don’t get me wrong. I don’t find it amusing that some drugged-up Hippie nudist who lived in a Lefty collective in Berkeley struck Paul Pelosi with a hammer. I mean, this is real life, not a Three Stooges movie.
No, it isn’t the physical assault that I find amusing but the histrionic, preposterous claims from the media and Democrat politicians that this drugged-up Hippie nudist is some kind of MAGA insurrectionist inspired by Kevin McCarthy saying in 2021 that he’d like to hit Nancy on the head with the Speaker’s gavel.
Not since Jussie Smollett encountered two gay Nigerians in the frozen streets of Chicago who attacked him while yelling “This is MAGA country” has there been a story so laughingly outlandish.
Even my late paranoid schizophrenic grandmother couldn’t have come up with a story this unbelievable. And she once told me that someone snuck into her basement and replaced her Kenmore washing machine with a Whirlpool while she was doing laundry.
I find it amusing that the Democrats and their media handmaids are so panicked over next week’s midterms that they didn’t hesitate for a moment before floating this absurd tale that a MAGA extremist, inspired by Republicans vowing “Fire Nancy Pelosi,” broke in and attacked Paul Pelosi with a hammer after asking “Where’s Nancy?” You know, the same thing the insurrectionist said on January 6.
And, and, wait for it … he was carrying zip ties, “in Jan. 6 echo.”
You know who else was carrying zip ties? The guy who wanted to assassinate Justice Brett Kavanaugh. Maybe he was echoing that.
Even after some details emerged and we learned this guy was a drug-addicted former nudist who was living in a camper van outside of a Hippie collective in far-Left Berkeley, those morons were still blaming Republicans for the attack.
Even after his Leftie acquaintances said his drug use and psychosis and not politics fueled his actions, it was still the fault of Republicans running campaign ads vowing to “Fire Pelosi.”
Yesterday, that broad on Face the Nation demanded the National Republican Congressional Committee chair pull all campaign ads that mention Speaker Pelosi “by name.”
I mean, how could you not be amused by this?
It’s also been amusing watching all the tweets from verified blue-check “reporters” on Twitter losing their marbles over people on the right tweeting that the hippie was a rent boy Paul Pelosi hired for the night and things got out of hand.
All those idiots who have been spending the last few days making wild, unsubstantiated claims that this druggie is a MAGA insurrectionist motivated by “Fire Pelosi” ads from Republicans were aghast that these other guys were making unsubstantiated claims of their own.
This is the most entertaining thing I’ve watched in months.
Funnier still, the little brains in the media spent the weekend arguing that Democrats have never inspired Left-wing violence the way Republicans inspire violence among those stinking MAGA terrorists.
Yeah, except for the baseball field shooting in 2017 in which Steve Scalise nearly lost his life. Or the Leftist nutjobs storming the Supreme Court after Justice Kavanaugh was confirmed. Or the entire summer of riots after the death of St. George Floyd. Or the dozens upon dozens of pro-life pregnancy centers that have been vandalized and torched since the Dobbs decision was leaked. Or, hey, how about the guy arrested outside of Justice Kavanaugh’s house after flying from California to assassinate him? And, let’s not forget the multiple Republican canvassers who have been attacked during this election cycle.
Then there is 18-year-old Cayler Ellingson who, just a couple of weeks after President Biden’s address to the nation warning that Republican extremists were a threat to the country, got run over and murdered by someone who thought Cayler was a Republican extremist.
And rather than get furious at all this, I choose to find it amusing.
These guys are so desperate to stop a Red Wave that they’re willing to turn a drugged-out Hippie from Berkeley into the MAGA version of Lee Harvey Oswald.
It beggars belief.
But they’re going to squeeze every ounce of narrative out of this incident while they can in hopes that voters will forget that the Democrats tanked the economy, sold out our energy sector, erased our southern border, and drove our cost of living through the roof.
In a way, the meltdown over this attack reminds me a lot of the meltdown over the infamous “Access Hollywood” tape in 2016.
Remember that? Trump was recorded a decade earlier talking about how, if you’re famous, women will let you do anything to them, including grabbing them by the pussy.
The media and politicians all believed that decade-old recording was going to end Trump’s chances and hand Hillary the White House on a silver platter.
The “Trump said pussy” October surprise had me just as amused as this one.
As the old saying goes, “Desperate times call for desperate measures.”
And this MAGA Hippie tall tale stinks of desperation.
