MAGA senate candidate says drag queens and people who support drag queens aren't tough enough to serve in the military

 

The clip above proves yet again how bigotry makes one absolutely stupid.

From The Huffington Post: 

Hung Cao, the Republican Senate nominee in Virginia, disparaged drag queens and people who are tolerant of them by implying Wednesday that they are not tough enough to serve in the military. 

 Cao made the remarks in a televised debate against Democratic Sen. Tim Kaine when one of the moderators asked him about his previous comments tying what he called the White House's "growing obsession" with diversity, equity and inclusion, or DEI, to military recruitment issues. Cao, a Navy veteran, was asked to explain how he believes DEI could affect military recruitment. 

 "When you’re using a, you know, drag queen to recruit for the Navy, that’s not the people we want," Cao said after he was pressed about the issue following his initial response. "What we need is alpha males and alpha females who are going to rip out their own guts, eat them and ask for seconds. Those are young men and women that are going to win wars." 

Cao is not only bigoted, but it's obvious that he's never been to a drag competition. A drag competition is the real definition of "going to war."

The fact that Donald Trump supports him should surprise no one. That being the case, it should also surprise no one that his performance at the debate in general was panned as "crashing and burning."
