Pennsylvania’s Republican Rep. Rick Saccone is facing a tough special election this year with the rise of Daily Kos-endorsed Conor Lamb. It’s been so tough that the Republican Party is hoping a Hail Mary endorsement from the white supremacist-in-chief himself will keep Pennsylvania’s 18th District red. But as the Pennsylvania Democratic Party reports, it looks like the grueling schedule of doing one’s job is really taking a toll on Saccone.
Can’t a guy just pretend to do work while figuring out what the three-letter word for the second-largest living bird by height is?* Saccone, who has famously referred to himself as “Trump before Trump,” must have really been up trying to figure one of the largest lakes (by surface area) that took the name of the indigenous peoples who once lived on its shores.**
In all honesty, Saccone might have been up late writing a defense of CIA interrogation techniques in Abu Ghraib. So Pennsylvania, make the right decision and vote for someone who wants to do a good job for the people living in Pennsylvania.
*In crossword puzzles “the bird” is always EMU**
**The “lake” is almost always ERIE.
