John Schneider is finest regarded for his purpose on The Dukes of Hazzard, a series that ran in the late 70s, early 80s. He has not seriously shed the persona though. Schneider played the job of Bo Duke, who with his cousin Luke Duke, ran an unlawful moonshining operation, which produced for lots of storylines about weird antics to stay clear of the legislation. It was wildly well-liked in the stupid 80s, but died a purely natural loss of life in 1985.
Sadly, it seems like Schneider hardly ever genuinely outgrew the part of sensible-chatting idiot.
Final evening on Twitter, President Joe Biden posted a tweet which stated, “Trump poses a lot of threats to our nation: The correct to opt for, civil rights, voting rights, and America’s standing in the earth.”
“But the best risk he poses is to our democracy,” the tweet continued. “If we lose that, we lose everything.”
Absolutely nothing in there is a lie. It can be all provable from courtroom filings on your own, substantially less Trump’s personal Hitlerian rhetoric.
Has-been John Schneider decided to fill the part of hillbilly fool and replied with an just about-dying danger to the president and his son, Hunter.
“Mr President,” he wrote, “I believe that you are guilty of treason and really should be publicly hung. Your son far too.” Be aware to Schneider: the appropriate use of the phrase is “hanged”. But I digress.
“Your response is?” he ongoing, signing the tweet “Sincerely, John Schneider.”
Critically, you are unable to make this things up. This doofus seemingly sits all over swilling moonshine and listening to each individual silly factor they say on Fox News, or worse still, OANN. Or possibly he just sits in his major old chair and watches Steve Bannon’s podcasts on his laptop. What ever.
It really is not a danger simply because he isn’t threatening to do the hanging, but it is unquestionably a merchandise of the fevered mind of a has-been hick actor who can not do substantially extra than make swill like this:
Schneider deleted the tweet soon immediately after he posted it. But we have saved it for posterity.
