Well, folks, if you thought the Republicans couldn’t possibly get any more batshit crazy than they already are — Boy, do I have news for you…
Missouri Republican Rep. Billy Long took to his Twitter account with a new “plan” to get disgraced, one-term, twice-impeached ex-President Donald Trump back into the White House he lost that’s so absolutely unhinged it told Marjorie Taylor Greene to hold its beer.
Long’s half-baked, nuthouse-worthy strategy began with “get Kamala Harris to resign” before moving on to the portion where President Biden was supposed to be convinced to make Donald Trump his new Vice President and wrapped up with “get Joe Biden to resign.”
Easy peasy lemon squeezy, right?!
I swear on all that is good and holy in this world (which, admittedly, isn’t much anymore) I am not joking.

Not only did Rep. Long display to the whole entire world, or at least those with a computer and a functioning brain, that he has absolutely no grasp on how the line of succession in the United States government works, he also failed to line out any details pertaining to how he intended to see all of this nonsense put into place.
But best believe the final step of his plan consisted of “Finish the wall.”
My #MOSen platform 1.) Get @KamalaHarris to resign 2.) Have @POTUS appoint #Trump as VP 3.) Get @JoeBiden to resign 4.) Finish #KeystoneXL 5.) Finish the wall

As if the whole ordeal wasn’t already bad enough as it is, the fact that Long has been serving in Congress for over a decade and is currently running for Senate to replace Missouri’s retiring Republican Senator Roy Blunt just makes it all that much worse still.
Unfortunately, Long is no stranger to spewing controversial bullshit out of his mouth and most recently went so far as to compare the Uvalde massacre that claimed the lives of 21 innocent living, breathing human beings to abortion rights.
“Now, we have two, three, four a week in Springfield, Missouri. So, something has happened to our society. I go back to abortion when we decided it was ok to murder kids in their mothers’ wombs. Life has no value to a lot of these folks,” Long remarked during an interview on 93.9 The Eagle in Columbia, Missouri on Wednesday.
The response to Long’s “plan” went down pretty much exactly like you’d expect:
This is the kind of tweet that should get him sent to rehab and I say this as someone who has been to rehab https://t.co/GmhaR7SeAA

These Republicans are really out here digging their own holes for us at this point. We don’t even have to do much anymore.
