There are all kinds of people I don’t trust in this world. Dentists with bad teeth. People who say they don’t like Justin Bieber’s music. People who have the star and bars tattooed on their face. And, mostly, people who cheer for two teams of the same rivalry. Get the fuck out of here with that shit. You can’t play both sides. Who are you? Littlefinger?
And, of course, one of your potential future Vice Presidents admits without a care in the world about playing both sides. Tim Kaine, Hillary Clinton’s running mate, graduated from University of Missouri. So I would think it’s just safe to assume that he cheered for them in sports. Wrong. Guy has more fucking criss-crossing loyalties than a House of Cards character.
Via Washington Post:
“The Virginia governor grew up in Overland Park, Kan., and is an avowed Jayhawks fan. Back in 2005, he called them his favorite team. But not, as it turns out, on the gridiron.
“I root for the Jayhawks in basketball,” Kaine told us yesterday. “I’ve never been a KU football fan.””
You know who else like Jayhawks basketball, pal? Everyone. Welcome to the bandwagon. Now I see where you and Hillary get along. Your political plans are, “Ok, what lie can we say about ourselves that will best resonate with the largest possible group?” So, in the theme of them saying absurd garbage, what is his reasoning for being a Jayhawks basketball fan?
“Parsing the nuances of team loyalty, Kaine explained that his parents were “K-Staters” (Kansas State U) and he graduated from the University of Missouri, which meant he was usually rooting against rival KU.”
Oh nice, so your bitter rivals with the team you like to cheer for. That makes sense. That really clears the air. Normal people would see your familial affiliation with those two schools and assume that, as VP, you’re going to take a metaphorical shit on Jayhawk country by economically bottoming them out and destroying their school systems so no one will want to live there and the entire college can cease to exist. But no, you root for them. So untrustworthy. How can you cheer for your rivals. Did you cheer for the Russians to beat the United States during the Space Race? Will you cheer for China and India to continue to find academic success while the United States struggles under your leadership? Fucked up, bros. The dude’s about as trustworthy as a guy who shits in the sink at a party. You don’t want them around.
