A Congressman’s Profanity Laced Tirade in a Safeway Grocery Store.
“If we’re going to lose because of him, we might as well impeach the motherf**ker,” said the congressman as we roamed the aisles of a Safeway grocery store together. I haven’t been in a Safeway since my family moved home from Dubai in 1990. The congressman did not want to be seen with me on Capitol Hill. He needed to get some stuff anyway and decided he’d let me walk with him through the cereal and dairy selections at the Safeway near my hotel. He is not happy with President Trump. He was never a die hard Trump supporter. He supported him in the general and never expected him to win. But he did. So the congressman, whose district Trump won, has been a regular supporter on Fox News and elsewhere defending the President. He is happy to be quoted, so long as I don’t name him. He says he just needs to vent. I suggest what we’re doing is one of the reason’s Trump won — a congressman says nice things in public and bad things in private.
“Everybody does this sh*t,” he says. It’s his turn. We have known each other for years and have been promising to connect this week while I’m passing through DC. So this is it. I’m passing along his comments, not endorsing them.
“I read you writing about this, about wanting to say nice things when you can and criticize when you need to. He may be an idiot, but he’s still the President and leader of my party and he is capable of doing some things right,” he says before conceding it’s usually other people doing the right things in the President’s name. “But dammit he’s taking us all down with him. We are well and truly f**ked in November. Kevin [McCarthy] is already circling like a green fly circling sh*t trying to take Paul’s [Ryan] job because nobody thinks he’s sticking around for Nancy [Pelosi]. She’s going to f**k up the cafeteria again too. [Lord’s name in vain], at least I’ll probably lose too and won’t have to put up with that sh*t.” He won’t lose. His district is very Republican.
What’s the problem, though? Well, get ready…
“It’s like Forrest Gump won the presidency, but an evil, really f*cking stupid Forrest Gump. He can’t help himself. He’s just a f**king idiot who thinks he’s winning when people are b*tching about him. He really does see the world as ratings and attention. I hate Forrest Gump. I listen to your podcast and heard you hate it too. What an overrated piece of sh*t movie. Can you believe it beat the Shawshank Redemption?”
We deviated to Stephen Speilberg for a moment and I had to remind him Robert Zemeckis, not Speilberg, directed it. Then I had to point out his taste in coffee sucks and suggested better. Moving right along…
“Judiciary is stacked with a bunch of people who can win re-election so long as they don’t piss off Trump voters in the primary. But if we get to summer and most of the primaries are over, they just might pull the trigger if the President fires Mueller. The sh*t will hit the fan if that happens and I’d vote to impeach him myself. Most of us would, I think. Hell, all the Democrats would and you only need a majority in the House. If we’re going to lose because of him, we might as well impeach the motherf**ker. Take him out with us and let Mike [Pence] take over. At least then we could sleep well at night,” he said before going off on a tangent about how the situations with Russia and China scare him. Then, “You know having Mike as President would really piss off all the right people, too. They think they hate Trump. Mike is competent,” at which point he sighs and laments that there were, in his mind, more than a dozen competent choices in 2016.
So the implication is they wouldn’t vote for impeachment if they might be opposed in primaries, I asked. He confirmed he does not think the votes are there to impeach the President if any of the Judiciary Committee members are facing primary opponents. But get through that and, if Mueller is fired, he thinks so and thinks a majority of the House would vote to impeach President Trump.
“I say a lot of shit on TV defending him, even over this. But honestly, I wish the motherf*cker would just go away.
You first.
The “true story” is a little short on the specifics of what Trump is doing wrong, no?
This sounds like a lefty who simply tosses out vague complaints like “he’s a monster!”
Really, how so?
“He’s a murderer!!!”
Really, how so?
“He’s a totalitarian dictator!”
Really, how so?
“He’s FORREST GUMP!!!!”
Really, how so?
What a motherf**ker….I mean the congressman.
Name names or don’t report it fatty.
He was in Safeway, hahahaha!!!!!!!
I just unsubcribed to GrassTops USA for printing this Eric Erickson piece of shit by an un named congressman, and now you have to print the shit? WTF!
in a ‘Safeway’ … oh the horror of actually having to go down to level of the hoi polloi … gad, is she actually using coupons?!?!?
This story stinks like a Hoggs ass, I mean like Ericksons ass.
What a coward.
Erick Erickson is a lying piece of shit. His article is fiction.
Well, how else is anyone supposed to know what kind of piece of excrement Erickson is if they don’t see it for themselves?
I didn’t exactly write a glowing title.
The interview took place in the Safeway mens room..
It’s absurd that they think that Trump would be the reason that they lose the midterms! Lol Things like their failure to repeal Obamacare and the recently passed omnibus spending spree are the reasons that they might lose the midterms. Everyone knows that GOP voters tend to turn out in higher numbers than the dems at midterms so the way to guarantee losing in November is to piss off your own voters!
Ericka wrote that with a pen in one hand and his dick in the other.
Doesn’t seem like his #Nevertrump political beliefs have been real good for his career. He sucks as a fiction writer too.
Read this earlier and thought it was a fractured fairy tale. The entire piece sounded as though it came out of a sweaty rectum.
Erick who?
The idiots who complain about President Trump being a troglodyte, don’t remember the worst President, (before obamination, Lyndon (the jackass) Johnson. He was not only a Neanderthal, he was a shark; mean, crude, rude, corrupt, entitled, and a real racist bastard.
So we have a Republican who is actually trying to live up to the promises he made as a candidate and that will make other Republicans lose?
Maybe because it exposes that as the lying pieces of excrement they are.
Fake intel on Syria. Fake Russia investigation. Fake warrant affidavit to confiscate Presidential laywer priviledged documents. Real cockjocky writing fake news. Fake money. Fake accounting.
More bull shit made up.
Gotten to a horrendous pitch this week.
This is just like how Sen. Corey Booker had that friend “T-Bone”. The criminal with the heart of gold… The one he drove to Hawaii with.
Did anyone else read the title as “Erick Erickson Penis Essay…” right at first?
I sure hope I’m not the only perverted one here.
🙂
It’s like you don’t even know me, VV.
I saw Sweaty Rectum open for Dead Kennedys in ’78.
A congerperson thought roaming the aisles of Safeway, with the sweaty thumb, would be a good Idea? Did its name give some reassurance?
Were all the underground garages booked by CNN?
What a load of fetid road apples.
Like all of you I grocery shop and almost ever time I see an overdressed person who looks like they haven’t shopped in 10 years roaming the isles side by side with a fat man. They just wander through the store cussing like a sailor. What a crock of BS.
So tubby went grocery shopping with Paul Ryan? Did I get that right? Haha
Loves Shawshank, hates Gump…Does a hippie get punched in Shawshank? No? dn ʞɔnɟ ǝɥʇ ʇnɥS.
“I say a lot of shit on TV defending him…”
Don’t pretend you camera time is for anyone but yourself, dickhead.
And Erickson, we get it. Everything depends on Trump firing Mueller. How’s that worked out for you so far? You f–king Egg McMuffin puffer. At least your RINO buddy managed to be a Summer soldier for a minute.
If one person took this piece of shit seriously and actually believes this demented mental case liar erikson, take my advice, hes a liar. He may have interviewed the shopping cart but not a congressman.
Unless its the demoKKKrat congressman that I walked through the supermarket with that told me “yeah, its all true, we know Michelle Obama has a penis, Baraka had sex in the limo with Larry Sinclair and is a homo, Schiff killed a black junkie prostitute in a hotel in LA, Hillary is a dike with Humadeen the spy, Bill is slowly dying of Al Capone disease.. its all true but their demoKKKrats so what can I do”..
Good comments here, folks.
Stay the course, and steady. ….Lady in Red
Hey, when I ever feel the need to speak privately with a Congressman, I always go shopping at Safeway.
We meet in the cereal isle, right next to the cacao puffs and fruity pebbles.
“Fruity” Pebbles would have nothing to do with these two eunuchs.
Another Bus “Republicn”
BUSH
I read that blubbery as Blueberry….yuck.
More coffee please.
If I had to bet money I’d say this was a work of fiction. No Congressman is going to go on such incredibly obscene and mean-spirited rant like this with a political reporter especially in a Safeway. I think that Erickson threw the Safeway tidbit in to provide authenticity. There’s plenty of reason not to release a source but in this case if it were true the sheer madness espoused by this phantom Congressman is enough to reveal their name if only to warn their constituents of what is actually behind the mask. Nope, I believe this whole thing is a lie written by Erickson as red meat for his followers.
I actually saw my former Congressman George Nethercutt at my local Safeway about 10 or more years ago. He was a good guy and a regular person and was talking to people and the cashier while he was in line doing a little shopping. Not all Congressmen are jerks and assholes.
