Louie Gohmert just ended his own political career with a phenomenally stupid move

Dear Palmer Report readers, we all understand the difficult era we're heading into. Major media outlets are caving to Trump already. Even the internet itself and publishing platforms may be at risk. But Palmer Report is nonetheless going to lead the fight. We're funding our 2025 operating expenses now, so we can keep publishing no matter what happens. I'm asking you to contribute if you can, because the stakes are just so high. You can donate here.

Isn’t it a beautiful thing when we manage to oust a GOP nincompoop without even trying? This is precisely what has happened with Soon-to-be-former Congressman Louie Gohmert. And he did it all on his own. We simply can’t thank him enough.

First, let’s talk a bit about Losing Louie. This is the man who told Newsmax that letting the American people decide the results of the 2020 election would be “the end of our Republic.”

Well — the peoples’ will was upheld. And surprise Louie! The country held up! Gohmert’s political career, however, did not. Gohmert represents the 1st district of Texas which is considered safe for him.

But this seat did not appear to be enough for Louie. He inexplicably decided he wanted to be the new Attorney General of Texas. To do that meant he could not run for Congress again.

And the results of the Texas primary are in — and Gohmert got creamed. Is anybody really surprised by this news? He came in fourth. What this means is that Louie is now effectively out of politics.

He can no longer be a member of Congress — nor will he be the next AG of Texas. Isn’t it wonderful when we see Republican stupidity on full display? So Louie is now lost in space. What will the alien life form decide to do next?

His empty calendar will give him plenty of time to visit assolini before he’s carted off to prison. Or perhaps Louie could get a gig as a Fox non-news contributor, but that would mean he’d have to be able to string two sentences together. Well – maybe it wouldn’t, actually.

But now Texas is free of Gohmert. And the state will be all the better for it, I am sure.
