Tedd Budd, Juvenile, Announces His Bid for US Senate

 

Congressman Tedd Budd said he didn't need monster trucks to announce his "liberal crusher" campaign for the US Senate ... while using monster trucks, featuring them in the video below. In other words, he's every bit the trifling apex of conservative values that we learned the Trump era was all about. Budd hits all the easy marks for a Republican Party completely out of ideas. He includes mentions of Dr. Seuss and defunding the police, as well as an image of a flag with a “thin blue line” representing police, and he says the U.S. Senate is the last line of defense against turning America into a “woke Socialist wasteland.”

Budd also looks to be the Club for Growth's last bulwark against the return of Pat McCrory, but one wonders if two congressional conservatives -- including ex-Congressman Mark Walker, who's already been campaigning for months -- might not split the right-wing vote and allow McCrory to waltz through with 30% (plus 1).

Budd was willing to overturn the 2020 election. He was among the first in Congress from NC to announce he would not vote for the certification of the election, and he wrote his fellow House members urging them to throw out millions of votes for Joe Biden because Donald Trump told him to. Even after the Capitol insurrection, he voted against the certification of both Arizona and Pennsylvania.

He makes his living selling guns.
