It is safe to say that former Congressman Joe Garcia (D), who is once again running for the U.S. Congress in Florida, may subconsciously be channeling his inner Joe Biden.
If it isn’t picking earwax and eating it on national TV, or being caught buying a sex toy at the neighborhood Spencer’s gift shop, then it’s Joe talking about how Hillary Clinton isn’t under any “illusion” that voters “want to have sex with her, or that she’s going to seduce you.”Garcia’s mind may still be on a particular product aisle at Spencer’s.
Here is what Patty Mazzei posted over at the Miami Herald:
Do you think the 2nd Amendment will be destroyed by the Biden Administration?(2)
“I believe that we’re going to have — I’ll mention it when I speak — I believe we’re about to see the most consequential presidency that we’ve seen since Lyndon Johnson,” Garcia says. “This is not because I think Hillary Clinton is the greatest ever. But I do believe she is extremely, exceedingly competent, and she — I know this is going to sound weird to you, but to me, as somebody who studies history, she’s going to be very similar to Lyndon Johnson.
“Lyndon Johnson wasn’t a particularly charming man, wasn’t a particularly nice man: He would ask you nice, and then when you didn’t do it, he made you do it,” Garcia continued. “And Hillary is under no illusions that you want to have sex with her, or that she’s going to seduce you, or out-think you.”
“I don’t want to be offensive to women,” Garcia responds. “What I’m talking about is exactly that: It’s getting it done. Unlike Obama, who has this profound sense that logic can move people — it can’t move crazy. That’s trending in the Republican Party.”Garcia later issued this statement of regret to the Herald:Asked to explain why he would refer to
“I believe Secretary Clinton is the most competent and qualified presidential candidate in the history of this country, man or woman,” he said. “My comments speak to Secretary Clinton’s focus on getting things done, and not on the gender stereotypes and biases women in public life are frequently subjected to. I fully support Hillary Clinton for president, and I’m confident she will be one of our country’s most effective presidents.”
Garcia kept on apologizing for his remarks:
“I apologize for my poorly worded comment about Secretary Clinton,” he said. “My comments were intended to speak to Secretary Clinton’s relentless focus on getting the job done, despite the unjust gender stereotypes and biases women in public life are subjected to.”Meanwhile, Rep. Carlos Curbelo (R) is said to be resting comfortably after falling from his kid’s Hoverboard. Apparently Curbelo lost his balance the moment he heard Garcia’s sex talk about Hillary Clinton. This is a joke. Curbelo fell off the hoverboard last year.
