The town of Baltimore remains to be reeling from the tragedy of the Francis Scott Key Bridge collapse following a delivery boat accident and politics and tradition battle is already rearing its ugly pointy-hooded head.
Republicans have determined that the one viable path to profitable elections is to witch-hunt, concern monger, and create boogeymen who can take the blame for all of society’s ills. Coverage be damned. Case-in-point, in keeping with a KSL article, Utah Republican Phil Lyman is blaming the accident, one which has seemingly claimed the lives of six building employees, on range, fairness, and inclusion initiatives. No “ideas and prayers”. No outpouring of affection. No assist for the town. Simply hate.
It’s an election 12 months, and Phil Lyman is seeking to unseat the incumbent Republican governor Spencer Cox who, in keeping with Deseret, at the moment holds 50% of the assist within the egregiously conservative state. To that finish, it must be famous that Lyman, in keeping with similar polling, solely holds 3% of the states right-wing voters.
Gee, surprise why…
The backlash towards Lyman was so overwhelming that even Salt Lake Metropolis District Lawyer Sim Gill upped the yopper on him by way of Twitter (we’re by no means calling it ‘X’).
To be clear, the ship that crashed in to the bridge misplaced energy and sure suffered some sort of mechanical malfunction. It’s one thing that may occur to any machine no matter who’s in cost however in some way, this complete disaster is the fault of a Black lady who was rightfully elected to be one of many Port of Baltimore Commissioners.
You may’t make this s#!t up. These individuals are severe deranged. Please hit up Phil Lyman’s Twitter account and inform him how a lot of a 3% loser he’s.
