How to piss off and alienate four counties worth of people in the congressional district you are supposed to be the chair of, in under an hour.
On a balmy Thursday morning in mid June, 2023, an awesome friend - we’ll call them J - sent me a quick message over facebook calling attention to her post about John Moolenaar (R - Chud) voting to censure Adam Schiff (D - Hero) for doing his job. As I read through the comments left there, promising to leave a reply to J’s post, from out of nowhere, Trump in a Woman’s Body arrives to make the conversation all about HER. Observe the first two images above.
She starts off with announcing that the most important Democrat in the world has arrived to grace J’s post with her online presence. She then tears into the person she’s replying to - we’ll call them Big G - berating them for not showing up to all of the important things Mary is doing. Big G made the very accurate observation that the 2nd CD chair isn’t doing their job, and no one is allowed to criticize Mary!
Big G just so happens to be half of a wonderful couple who have been the most active Democrats in Osceola County for the past 40+ years. When the Michigan Democratic Party needs to talk to a Democrat in Osceola County, these are the people they call. EVERYBODY knows this couple and would never dream to challenge their committment to the Democratic Party.
Well, everybody except Mary “Watch me shove both feet past my ankles into my mouth” Minnick. Mary has only lived in the area since 2018. Also, how dare Big G not know who SHE is!
what happens next gets even more comical. Another commenter - We’ll call them Big L - gives Mary a taste of her own medicine. Mary, being Mary, does the typical Mary thing and tries to tear Big L down by using shame and name calling. It’s not very effective.
Big G decides it’s time to educate Mary on how things really work. They answer Mary’s question about how involved they’ve been with the Democratic party since 1972, listing how many candidates came from Osceola County to run for state rep, how many nonpartisan candidates Big G has helped get elected, how many decades they and their spouse have served on every position on the executive board, the CD, central committee and on and on.
Mary has a rare moment of clarity and realizes Big G is exactly the person she needs to bring back the Osecola Democratic Party. Her tone quickly changes to supplication as she begs Big G to join her, even begging her to just work with her for one month.
Big G tells Mary to fuck off and leaves the conversation.
And while all of this is going on, another awesome friend sends me the screen grab from Mary’s page above. It seems while Mary was being a major asshole to all of the people she shouldn’t be alienating, someone tried to hack her Facebook profile.
Just another day of being clueless for Trump in a Woman’s Body.
