PA GOP Rep. Mike Kelly (PA-16) Mocks Biden's Stutter in Trump Campaign Call

"Pennsylvania's Mike Kelly, who is 72, also suggested Biden was too old to be president."

"Rep. Mike Kelly (R-PA) reportedly mocked Joe Biden's stutter on a Tuesday Trump campaign conference call and launched an ageist attack on the former vice president."

"According to multiple reporters on the call, Kelly affected a fake stutter while quoting Biden. "He kind of stumbled: 'We-we-we, we'll work it out, we'll work it out,'" the five-term congressman said. "Let him go ahead and mumble and bumble wherever he wants."

"Drop off some tapioca and let him make his way through that," he then suggested, an apparent reference to Biden's age."

Vote Mike Kelly out!!

There is a fantastic candidate running against Kelly in PA-16. Her name is Kristy Gnibus. She's a teacher from Erie, who beat ovarian cancer at age 20 while in college. Check out her website; I am really impressed by her, and that's not even my district! https://www.kristyforcongress.com/meet-kristy

"Congressman who said car dealerships don’t sell defective cars is caught selling over a dozen at his own"

"Sure enough, a new investigation by a local television news station has found that there were 17 cars with unrepaired safety recalls offered for sale at Kelly’s car dealerships across Pennsylvania in early March."

"The vehicles were all under recall for potentially explosive airbags produced by the now-bankrupt Takata corporation. The Takata airbag recall is the auto industry's largest to date, causing backlogs at dealerships and forcing millions of consumers with defective airbags with no choice but to wait indefinitely. Officials have counted a total of 24 deaths worldwide due to the airbags exploding."

He is the Neanderthal who compared the ACA's birth control mandate to Pearl Harbor and 9-11.

At a 2012 press conference, Kelly decried the Affordable Care Act's birth control mandate, comparing it to the Sept. 11, 2001 terrorist attacks and the 1941 attack on Pearl Harbor. "I want you to remember August 1, 2012, the attack on our religious freedom," he said. "That is a day that will live in infamy, along with those other dates."
