Welcome to what is the 1273rd original profile here at “Fanatical Republican Extremist of the Day”, where we’ll be profiling former Iowa State Senator Jake Chapman, who was in office for District 34 from 2013-2023. His voting record through the years was distinctly unreasonable, even for a conservative, what with his anti-choice support for fetal heartbeat legislation, the time he tried to deem abortion “a hate crime”, and his desire to block municipalities from raising their own minimum wage.
But Chapman’s career started to focus more on what the fate of children in Iowa was, and we will summarize it as “F*** them kids”, what with his desire to allow parents to use “sexual orientation conversion therapy aka “torture them until they’re straight”, and that he wanted to make sure transgender children couldn’t participate in school sports other than in the gender of their birth, based on ideological bigotry. Where it really became clear it wasn’t just a matter or targeting LGBTQ children for harassment, was that he wanted to ban both vaccine mandates for schools, and mask mandates for schools in the middle of a pandemic, because let’s just let the virus ravage all the kids and let God sort ‘em out.
So forgive us if his act where he supposedly was so concerned for children seems hollow. Yes, Jake Chapman took to the floor of the Iowa State Senate to open the 2022 session to claim teachers all had a conspiratorial agenda to make “deviant behavior” accepted by society.
The Iowans in his district seemed to think he was just full of crap, and voted him out of office in 2022 by about 800 votes. We would like to wish him our heartiest “GOOD RIDDANCE” salutes at this time.
