Scurrilous Rethuglican Kris "KKK" Kobach, the zealous voter suppression goon from Kansas, announced that he's running for the Senate seat being vacated by fellow Rethug Sen. Pat Roberts in 2020. Kobach ran unsuccessfully for Governor of Kansas against Dem Gov. Laura Kelly in 2018, and before that was infamous for leading demagogue and Kremlin asset Donald "Rump" Trump's despicable voter suppression commission, which collapsed after even Rethug-controlled states refused to cooperate.
The bad news is that Kobach is a radical right-winger who wants only Rethuglican voters to pick our government leaders. The good news is that he's failed at every turn, being a master at buffoonery. He cluelessly chose Leavenworth, KS as the site for his announcement, perhaps to be near where some of his Rethug cohort may end up being imprisoned. He also has a team that can't spell his first name correctly on his campaign filing. For that, we suggest a simple and appropriate mnemonic aid to use to remember the spelling: KKK. No, he doesn't wear the white sheets, but his work dovetails with theirs.
