Louie Gohmert is some special kind of imbecile.

[kentuck]

I can only imagine the people that vote for him.

The stupid shit that he comes up with is really from outer space.

He's either a "maroon", a "moran", or a "moron"?

What an embarrassment that peanut head is to the Congress of the United States.

1. Can you imagine

This moron used to be a judge? How SCARY is that?

[BSdetect]

2. He's not alone there. Just a little bit more obvious.

[Atticus]

3. Now, now---let's not cast asparagus. nt

[exboyfil]

4. And the majority in his District

Talk about the shallow end of the gene pool.

[OLDMDDEM]

5. Beautifully stated. nt.

[Cyrano]

6. Being dumber than Trump is hard, but Gohmert manages it

[FSogol]

7. I often wonder how he doesn't drown from looking up during rainstorms.

Does his staff bring him inside or do they have a scupper they place over his mouth?

[kentuck]

8. They place an egg shell over his nose to keep him from drowning.

[FSogol]

9. He's clearly a mouth breather.

[kentuck]

10. Put his brain in a matchbox...

...and it would roll around like a BB in a boxcar.

[underpants]

16. That's funny. I'm stealing it. Nt.

[Norbert]

11. He has an IQ of 100

That is, if you add his and Gym Jordan's together.

[Yeehah]

12. It's ironic that the people working hardest to destroy democracy

embody the strongest argument against democracy. The fact that imbeciles like Gohmert can be elected to high positions is an indictment of democracy. Only if more wise and decent people are elected will democracy survive.

[Cicada]

13. His efforts will win votes when he runs for Governor or Senator

Gohmert’s actions are smart politics

[kentuck]

15. The Peter Principle?

The cream always rises to the top.

[Wounded Bear]

17. Actually, the principle you're looking for is that shit floats...

[Bradshaw3]

14. He's just an escape goat for stupid people

Context: There was another thread quoting a MAGAt using that term. Louie is near the top of a huge pile of dumb out there.

[Deuxcents]

18. He is from east Texas

Most areas are economically depressed, very rural with lots of logging but little to no factories. The people I met there travel long distances for food, etc. they like it just fine as it’s stuck in the 1950’s and are very republican.

[FSogol]

19. He obviously ate a lot of paint chips as a child.

[backscatter712]

20. Still the ruling champion: America's Dumbest Congressman!

Stupid is as stupid votes.

Though Trump has him beat, and Gohmert Pyle has plenty of competition...

[Gothmog]

21. Juanita Jean agrees

From Juanita Jean https://juanitajean.com/louie-19/

Oh Y’all, oh. oh. oh.

Louie has sued Vice President Mike Pence. In court. Where lawyers hang out. No kidding.

This is all about the Vice President’s ceremonial role on January 6th, consisting of having the Congress count states’ electoral votes and finalize Joe Biden as the winner of the election.

But the Republican lawsuit, which was filed against Pence in his official capacity as vice president, asks a federal judge in Texas to strike down the law as unconstitutional. The GOP plaintiffs go further: They ask the court to grant Pence the authority on Jan. 6 to effectively overturn Trump’s defeat in key battleground states.

Now, not even getting into the constitutionality of this, think about what happens next – if this is the new law, then one party has the power to overturn every election from now to eternity because they’ll just keep appointing themselves after the election.

But, if you want to get into the constitutionality, we can do that. I’m pretty sure that the constitution does not allow the vice president to overturn an election. Pretty damn sure.

22. Pence's reaction to Gomer Pyle's lawsuit:

[LeftInTX]

23. He got 72% of the vote in November

If you're seen the move Bernie, then you know what kind of people are up there.
