Video: Brat Holds Faux “Press Conference,” Switches Campaign Managers, Attacks “Crony Capitalism”

4

A few “highlights” (using the word VERY loosely) from Dave Brat’s “press conference” (in quotes because normally in a press conference the candidate takes, uh, QUESTIONS from the press, and Brat takes ZERO questions) earlier today.

*He fired his campaign manager (for more on that guy, see David Brat’s Campaign Manager Scrubs His Facebook Page: Here’s What He’s Hiding) and hired the former political director for, of all people, Eric Cantor! Gotta love it.

*He said most of his staff is from “our region,” and includes a cross section of “Tea Partiers, Libertarians and independents.” A cross section o’ crazy, in other words.

*He basically repeated the right-wingnut “Republican creed,” but also added an attack on what he calls “crony capitalism,” and what I’d call “what makes the Republican Party the Republican Party.” Heh.

*He called for term limits, which of course are NOT in the constitution he said we have to adhere to in order to “protect our liberty.” Whatever.

Anyway, with that, enjoy…or more likely not! Heh.
