The very worst political figure of 2022

It is quickly approaching the end of the year.

People are making New Year’s resolutions. Many are figuring out their new years eve plans. And some are hosting contests.

That’s right. All over, I see contests.They are everywhere.

So in the spirit of light stories here is a contest — for the worst republican (or person who pretends to be in the middle but is not) of all in 2022.

The catch is that Donald Trump is not among the nominees because we all know he’d win — hands down.

So as the year comes to a close, let us take a look at the bad, the worse, and the most awful of republican sleaze. And please remember to vote for your pick. Here are the nominees.

1.) Matt Gaetz. From (allegedly) sleeping with prostitutes to endlessly defending Trump to using the lamest hair gel I’ve ever seen, there can be no doubt that Gaetz most certainly deserves a place on our list of nominees.

2.) George Santos. The guy got elected, and he hasn’t even been seated yet! Gotta hand it to Santos, for truly being among the worst.

3.) Ginni Thomas — a suspected insurrectionist with a smirk that could freeze icebergs, never let it be said we’ve forgotten about you, Ginny.

4.) Tucker Carlson. From taking Putin’s side against Ukraine to griping about — well — everything — Tucker is one big shiny bad seed infant in an adult body, and why not reward him by voting him the worst of all?

5.) The Extreme Court. That’s right. All the sick six as I call them. They overturned Roe. That deserves a spot on our worst list.

6.) Greg Abbott. He is my pick. There is nothing absolutely nothing crueler than what the sociopath did on Christmas Eve.

7.) Samuel Alito. He is the only supreme court justice to earn his own spot. But what does a man who quotes ancient witch judges expect?

8) Kari Lake. A walking, (sometimes) talking human caricature, Lake should quit politics and become an actress. Perhaps starring in a few stalker movies could be her next gig. Anyway, she has earned a spot. But is she the worst of the worst?

9) Josh Hawley. Hawley’s run-like-hell video cannot be forgotten and certainly places him high on the list of contemptible people.

10) Elon Musk. Oh yes, he must be included. Not many people are awful enough to drive thousands off Twitter, lose their place as the wealthiest person in the world and somehow still think they’re doing a good job. Perhaps he should have his own place on a list of the most delusional people.

So there you are! Choose and choose wisely, people. And above all, have fun with it.
