Yesterday, South Dakota GOP Sen. Mike Rounds zeroed in on Democrats’ ultimate motivation in arguing for D.C. statehood:
Senator Mike Rounds ~ The Founding Fathers never intended for Washington D.C. to be a state.
#DCStatehood is really about packing the Senate with Democrats in order to pass a left-wing agenda.
Just look at the DC voter registration data:
🔵 76.4% Democrat
🔴 5.7% Republican
Then, entering from stage-left, a couple of fearless libtard propagandists ...
The New York Times' Binyamin Applebaum:
Binyamin Appelbaum ~ lol the founding fathers also didn't intend for 'south dakota' to be a state
And Vox's Aaron Rupar:
Aaron Rupar ~ I don't think the Founding Fathers had any intentions regarding South Dakota either, and yet
SO brave ... SO witty ... SO pathetically ignorant and stupid.
Charles C. W. Cooke ~ They did, though, which is why the Constitution clearly lays out the process by which new states may be added (Article IV, Sec. 3) and the Federalist Papers, in an entry written by the Constitution’s chief author, explains why it doesn’t apply to D.C.
Jerry Dunleavy ~ Check out The Federalist No. 43 and the U.S. Constitution’s Article I, Section 8, Clause 17. The Founding Fathers had pretty clear thoughts on the national capital, Aaron.
Joe Cunningham ~ The Founders specifically wrote into the Constitution that D.C. shouldn't be a state, and would be legislated over by Congress. Several of the Founders, including Jefferson, specifically planned for unsettled territories to become future states.
You are, once again, wrong.
David Harsanyi ~ "LOL" ... they specifically created a federal district not to be a state.
HouseRepEEE (D) ~ How can you be this dense?
Ozark Finesse Guy Redux ~ When you think you have posted something clever, but have actually beclowned yourself.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯ ~ Dude, that’s just embarrassing.
Luke Thompson ~ Congrats on sharing an incorrect take with the dumbest guy online.
JerichoJosh ~ I bet he thought he was being clever when he typed this.
Yeah, you know that both of them did ... but, they're the ones with egg on their faces. Not too surprising.
Tom Elliott ~ If there's some kind of support group for people who compulsively self-own, please send contact info to Aaron.
