Eric Swalwell made a fool of himself.
Again. Yeah, we know, you’re totally surprised.
And in other news, a pig’s backside is still pork.
Watch.

*please clap*
No, Eric, no one says history rhymes but they do say it repeats.
Google search revealed only ONE result returned…
And in that search of the term, they found the last use in 1970.

Whoa boy … anyone else starting to wonder if he and AOC are distant cousins?
So apparently Eric's quote is from Mark Twain, so now I've heard it, but I stand by what I tweeted before in that those sayings are much more common.

So Mark Twain said it. K.
He’d have been better off to say, ‘According to Mark Twain,’ or ‘As Mark Twain once said,’.
And it’s still not ‘often said.’
Heh.
Nobody says that.

Mark Twain did that one time.
At band camp.
IT’S A JOKE, settle down.
That dude hears voices.

You should have really tried that out on another adult before you said it in public.

You sure like the sound of your own voice don't you.

Somebody has to like it.
Good lord, you intentionally tweeted out a clip of you sounding like a stupid college sophomore.
— The Original SPQR in 3D (@SPQRzilla) June 11, 2019
That’s the funniest part of all of this. Eric thought the clip was good enough to share on Twitter.
We’re starting to understand why he’s polling at 0%.

Gold star for the Step Brothers meme.
Is your rapper name Busted Rhymes?

I don't know who's writing your attempts at flowery rhetoric, but I suggest you fire them. #BoldWithoutTheBold
