Anxious elitist right wingnut slaps together an ideological word salad in the dim hope that everyone else might believe he’s erudite

Josh Hawley, missouri, pompous ass, right wingnut, social media, Twitter, U.S. Senate, WTF?

He’s not.

Late this afternoon, from Josh Hawley (r):

Josh Hawley @HawleyMO
Let me explain this to you. Corporate liberals are woke capitalists. The corporatists love critical race theory and all the other warmed-over Marxist garbage. They sell out working Americans and sneer at them at the same time. That’s the New Left
[….]

Was this some kind of bizarre Senate office assignment hazing ritual requiring him to work “corporate”, “capitalist”, and “Marxist” into a single incoherent tweet? Just asking.

“The most dangerous place to stand in Washington D.C. is any place between Senator Josh Hawley and a live microphone” – Charles P. Pierce

Some of responses:

As Missouri Attorney General, you took millions in donations from a company scamming consumers. As Senator, you take money from corporate monopolists.

You’re bought and do nothing for working Americans.
Anti-union. Anti-relief. Anti-dignity.

But do keep “explaining.”

Let me explain this to you: you don’t live in Missouri and your voter registration at your sister’s house is fraud.

hell yeah, “capitalists” and “corporatists” definitely support Marxism. really smart shit here, my man

So, “woke capitalists, marxists”?

That makes a lot of sense

What the hell are you talking about?

this makes zero sense

This is the kind of answer on an exam in high school where the teacher would say quit using a bunch of words you read or heard somewhere without putting anything together in a paragraph that makes sense.

Woke Corporatist Marxist, damn.
I need a new bingo card.

This makes no sense

The only major legislative achievement that the Republican Party has accomplished in the past 4 years (when they controlled the White House & Senate) is a tax cut for millionaires and billionaires.

But go on, Senator Hypocrite, tell us more about how the liberals are elitists…

20+ years actually.

Tax cuts for the rich is the ONLY policy that the GOP has had for at least 2 decades.

So the “New Left” embraces Marxist social policies(?), but are capitalists. As capitalists they “sell out the working class,” as of course any good capitalist would. Finally, they condescend to them because they are economically beneath them? or social Neanderthals? I’m confused!

Oh no, I’ve got it figured out. This was just a prep school, Stanford/Harvard guy trying to figure out how to relate to the MAGAs and mangling it. I’m good now!

josh do you see the woke capitalists right now? are they in the room? does it smell like battery acid and burning toast?

Show me on this doll where the woke capitalists touched you.

this word salad needs seasoning

He should have added something about antifa for that extra flavor

Senator Stanford Yale really just gets working Americans, ya know? If he’s not trying to woo us w nonsense tweets like this he’s tweeting pics of his second home being built. Meanwhile, Missourians are suffering bc of Covid. Crickets.

It’s like a dump truck full of rejected Federalist articles ran into another dump truck full of misspelled signage from a militia rally. It’s astonishing that you managed to hoodwink admissions officials and professors at both Stanford AND Yale

I feel like the likes of Hawley or Cotton aren’t the future smart ones they keep warning us about.

There are a lot of words there. I’m not sure you know what any of them mean though.

Federalist slenderman from the “right to work” party has some words he’d like to string together. No, they don’t make any sense, but that won’t stop him.

Everyone is tweeting their gobblygook trying to find their post Trump populist stance. This one is interesting, hating on capitalism and marxism at the same time. And given the base, it could work. I mean, there is literally no party platform now and zero people seem to care.

Just say “Jews,” you little bigot. You’re not fooling anyone.

This is like every dumb Daily Caller outrage posting buzzword in one meaningless tweet, nice work Hosh Jawley

I feel like you just grabbed your GOP Magnetic Poetry Kit, threw a handful of loaded words at the fridge, and tried to compose a tweet with the ones that stuck.

Buddy, this is gibberish

All the buzz words. None of the sense.

And on and on…
