getting out my good pen and carefully inscribing "murdering your dog" on the increasingly long list of things that are helpful to win a GOP primary but probably unhelpful in a general election
I feel like they keep forgetting one of the big things that sunk the Romney campaign was the story about him strapping a dog to the roof of his car for a 20-hour road trip. Like we've been down this path already guys, it doesn't worm out well.
Honestly, knowing how many Republicans genuinely hate other human beings but go all in for animal welfare, I think it will probably not go over well really anywhere
