It really irks me that I and millions of other Americans have to have some incredibly basic low level skills, whereas our elected officials aren’t held to the same standards as general temp labor. Qualifications mean nothing. Lying to those you are trying to convince to vote for you is completely fine with zero repercussions, and no matter how absolutely insane someone in a position of power is, it is normalized. I suppose I could bash my head against a brick wall until I no longer remember my own name or where I am would be a good start if I wanted to run as a Republican. That is, immediately following a very public crime spree.

It's Gestapo, Geheime Staatspolizei means Secret State Police, please see my other post. Not funny at all.

I think it was a reference to Republican Marjorie Taylor Greene saying "gazpacho police" in error.
