Let me repeat this — Sheldon Whitehouse belongs to a fucking COUNTRY CLUB THAT HAS AN ALL WHITE MEMBERSHIP!!
Reich wing twitter-verse is having a goddamn field day w/ this
There are days you just have to wonder just HOW UNBELIEVABLY DISCONNECTED FROM FUCKING REALITY SOME PEOPLE ARE!!! So Sheldon Whitehouse actually belongs to an country club where the membership is all white. No matter how you spin this it’s unbelievably stupid that he still belongs to it after he literally said he would end his membership after he ran for the Senate in 2006. Instead he consolidated his membership with his wife’s so he could remain a member (talk about some pretzel logic there). His excuse now after this was discovered that is was a “long tradition in Rhode Island”. Really? It’s tradition?? That is your lame, weak ass excuse?? TRADITION??
How are some people so goddamn stupid to think this is okay?? How goddamn stupid do you have to be to think this would have never been discovered?? And that you weren’t ready for it to be discovered?? You can spin this anyway you want- it’s a hit by mcconnell, or that Whitehouse was making serious waves with his DISCLOSE Act so the powers that be took him down a peg, or how he kept punching the shit out of how bad the judiciary is stacked against progressives/democrats but seriously…. FUCKING SERIOUSLY… WHY DO YOU EVEN THINK IT’S OKAY TO BE A MEMBER OF THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY AND BELONG TO A COUNTRY CLUB W/ AN ALL WHITE MEMBERSHIP???
The dems and Whitehouse are going to take a massive beating on this… You fight and you fight and you fight for something and then see the people you are fighting for just be this goddamn stupid it just takes the wind out of you sails.
How do you even sell this??
FUCK!!!
