    She’s trailer trash. Of course she over indulges and can’t handle her booze. That’s staple trailer trash behavior. This stupid jackass would fit right in on the real housewives of West Virginia. People like her are the face of the modern Republican party.

      Hey. You just insulted my entire state. But also yes.

      Edit: Would people watch RHOWV / should I shoot a pilot episode to cash in on that?

        Went to college with a lot if kids from West Virginia.

        None went back after they graduated. There’s a lot of bleak states, but WV is probably the bleakest.

            I don’t disagree with you, but for my own mental health, I have to. I’m stuck here for multiple reasons (for the foreseeable future, anyway), so I’m doing my best to push for positive changes. The biggest thing holding us back is voter apathy, so my focus has mostly been on getting people registered and to actually show up to vote (picture someone trying to herd cats).

            One recent thing that gave me some hope was the rejection of four state constitutional amendments last year. All four of them were pretty bad, and they were all rejected by the voters.

            In order for those to be on the ballot, they had to spell out the proposed changes rather than just put the magic “R” next to them. Given actual information to vote on, rather than a party, the majority came together to vote “no” on them.

            So that tells me there is hope, albeit slim, that most people here really do want positive things and will vote sanely if they’re actually informed.

          A lot of people I know well make a lot of money in northern va and then will retire in WV.

          Also, a lot of people are moving past purciville in Virginia and closer to WVA!

            So what you are saying is that it is impossible to make a living in West Virginia, but cost of living is so low you can retire there if you made it big time elsewhere.

            That’s not the sales pitch you think it is

              I couldn’t care less about WVA and am not trying to “sell” anything.

              Cost of living there is cheap which makes it attractive. I live in Loudoun County, VA and it’s fucking expensive. WVA is less than an hour away so I see why other people head out there when their lifestyle allows it.

                The low cost of living doesn’t make WV attractive. The low cost of living is a side effect of being such an unattractive place to live unless you are independently wealthy. There are no job prospects, no areas large rnough for anything larger than self-sustainig family farming, and the only places flat enough to build houses are flood plains that level communities every decade.

                If you manage to build an eight figure retirement account, then i can see why it would be tempting to retire there, but at that point you can retire just about anywhere.

                  You should go knock on their doors and tell them that then since you’re the expert in these matters

    This behavior makes a lot of sense if you consider she knows she’s going to lose reelection, and is trying to enjoy the gravy train, while keeping her name ‘relevant’ (with the crazies) for her imminent shift to far right talk show host.

    This is the sort of stuff that immediately makes me think of the start of Idiocracy.

      She’s trying to position herself as Trump’s next cock sleeve once Melania inevitably leaves Trump and takes half his shit on the way out.

    Who cares? Report on the things she does that are actually revenant instead of this nonsense.

      They couldn’t find anything relevant unfortunately, turns out that otherwise she is pretty damn irrelevant.

      She’s one of the 500 most powerful people in America. That’s way. She literally helps decide the political direction of the country!
