Chip Roy and Dan Crenshaw lost their primaries last night. [View all]

Chip Roy and Dan Crenshaw lost their primaries last night. It is schadenfreude that is more delicious than I can imagine. Yes there are two fewer pathological liars in the house only to be replaced by two other putrid scumbags.
Neither of these men accomplished anything in their entire time in congress. Crenshaw was a Navy SEAL and is hated like no other man in the former community he was part of. There are no brothers he can count as friends now after he threatened to file a lawsuit against another SEAL. Instead he flew like a coward. I don't think any SEAL can be a coward but I have never met a pathological liar like Crenshaw who was not a pants-shitting coward when put to the question.
