Bailey advertises event with Donald Trump, Jr.

Posted in:

* It goes without saying that Bailey’s objective is to secure the father’s endorsement and cruise to a congressional primary victory over Mike Bost, much like he did last year. This at least shows he’s heading that way

  1. I wonder what DJTjr’s fee is.

  2. ===fee===

    For Bailey, it’s worth every dime.

  3. This is the separation Bailey wants from Bost.

    It *is* worth every penny.

    Bailey being closer to the Trump family offsets Bost’s “talk”

  4. The Friday before Halloween–perfect time for a costume party.

  5. I’m surprised the “Jr.” part isn’t in 6 point font.

  6. Well, it’s good to finally know what Bailey did with his PPP loan. /s

  7. Man that is just sad. Wild eyed junior and a pseudo religious white nationalist. Well, that won’t attract any conspiracy loving misfits now will it? /s

  8. Besides Don Jr’s fee I wonder how many books they had to buy.

  9. “Your contribution will benefit Bailey for Congress.”

    Interesting. I’m guessing DJTjr’s wallet will benefit more than Bailey’s campaign coffers. Let the fleecing begin.

  10. Not to mention the opportunity to buy books, t-shirts, hats, mugs, key chains, posters.
    Sheesh, will people ever tire of being fleeced?

    If you can’t spot the con, you’re the pigeon. Lots and lots of pigeons out there.

  12. I know Effingham county what to succeed from the rest of the state. Can we vote to let them? Just askin

  13. Perhaps Darren Bailey will switch from his Daily Devotional on Facebook to reading from Letters to Trump.

    So many cartons of books on the way to Effingham.

  14. Dang, too pricey for me.
    Oh well, maybe after the convictions, the price will go down.

  15. Both Don Jr. and his dad are divorced at least once so I guess being an evangelical doesn’t mean what it used to.

  16. Gun raffle?

    Comment by Siualum Wednesday, Sep 6, 23 @ 6:41 pm

  17. Alternative title= “Grifter Fest ‘23″

  18. I know EffinGham….
    Not all of us…

  19. I don’t know what’s sadder, that Bailey covets the support of a guy facing 91 felony counts or that his opponent may be envious that he beat him to it.

    Very Funny and Very Brutal
    Might be the blog statement of the Day.

  22. While Mike Bost is no prize, Donald Trump isn’t going to forget that Darren Bailey basically abandoned Trump once the primary was over last year. Whenever Pritzker attacked Trump, which was often, Bailey never stood in support. Never spoke up or pushed back. Under different circumstances Bailey might compare his kind of abandonment to Peter denying Christ 3 times before the rooster crowed. But I won’t do that.

  23. It’s a cult…

    ===Darren Bailey basically abandoned Trump once the primary was over last year. Whenever Pritzker attacked Trump, which was often, Bailey never stood in support. ===

    … with a religious fervor.

    ===Under different circumstances Bailey might compare his kind of abandonment to Peter denying Christ 3 times before the rooster crowed. But I won’t do that.===

    Bailey did pretend he was “booked” in Georgia with a mugshot.

    That was fun.

    Bailey is a televangelist running for Congress… when he’s not grifting, he’s praying, when he’s not pontificating, he’s fundraising

    That’s what cults like, and likely the check cleared so Don Jr will be there to get it.

  24. =Donald Trump isn’t going to forget that Darren Bailey basically abandoned Trump once the primary was over last year.=

    His present circumstances will be his primary motivator. I suspect he’ll support the loudest supporter who gets the most media attention. That’s likely going to be Bailey.
