Louie Gohmert Talks About Diamond & Silk On House Floor. IQ Points Melt

I never thought I'd have to talk about someone as dumb as Louie Gohmert talking about people as obtuse as Diamond & Silk when covering politics, but that is the world we now live in. And if this doesn't signify America's a failed state, well, I don't know...Cliff provides breakdown & takedown.

so i come to you with one of the dumber sentences anybody's ever had to utter the sentence begins louie gohmert was talking about diamond and silk these are things i never thought i'd say in my life but yeah louie gohmert often considered just about the stupidest you know on the floor of uh the house just a man who's a total [ __ ] i mean a complete idiot um that covert because he wouldn't let anybody wear masks around his office he actually i think they would get would have gotten fired he threatened them i'm not sure that's legal but it doesn't really matter and then of course he got it because he's an idiot and like there's 50 other stupid things he said and done in his life that a list here would make for a long video that maybe we have to do sometime but i i'll take you back to the premise here he was stood up on the house floor and quoted diamond and silk do you know who they are they're these two black women who have become became huge trump fans in 2016 because it was a hell of a grift you you sit there as black women and insult everybody black and everybody else who's a minority and you get away with it and the white folks love you because you're saying exactly what racist white people want to hear you see this from various quarters there's certain gay republicans jewish republicans it's almost like they're a designation and they each sit in their own little corner and rip their own group and do it for money glenn greenwald he's a twofer he gets to go after jews and gays and make the right wing happy i guess that's how he pocketed so much money probably wasn't putin or anything um diamond and silk so diamond silk said they paid social media extra money to highlight what they were saying as genius as i'm sure it was and that it didn't happen in fact the algorithm which louie gohmert had a really hard time saying i thought he was going to be like the al jazeera the um algebra but he got through it somehow louie's a fighter the algorithm apparently according to louie and diamond and silk uh sent them all to the bottom of the page it was fraud quote unquote against them um i only bring this up because like this is where the republican party has fallen to these two utter clowns who know nothing between them nothing about politics or history or foreign affairs or really anything about the united states and just sit there and say stupid things in an offensive way for a white audience to reaffirm its racism um were cleared on the floor by an idiot who if they could draw fairer districts in texas maybe we wouldn't be stuck with or back 20 years ago he would have been like one of those folks on the edge you know where there was like 15 crazy republicans that were the most messed up and he's now in the mainstream and again another sort of conspiratorial claim about tech companies because tech companies are always after republicans right that's why ben shapiro's posts which i'm sure he doesn't pay for always the most popular ones on facebook um legit it's just about selling people a story on the far right it's about selling grievances about selling resentment and they're all out to get us in you know paranoia and conspiracy and the rest because they can't run on issues it's all performance that's why diamond and silk and chachi and ted nugent and you know all these just washed up or never washed steve bannon untalented hacks are able to do what they're able to do make lots of money and they get quoted by republicans like louie comrade i can't even believe i'm finding myself talking about this i feel like i should go into entertainment or something raise the bar on what i get to discuss there's your story folks
