On Monday, a 15-year old named Quinn was in a line of people shaking hands with candidate Nikki Haley after her campaign event. Quinn asked Haley if she thought Donald Trump is a threat to democracy. As she avoided his question, three of her aides, who looked petrified, tried to stop him and then rushed to tell Quinn to hit the road.
Sheesh.
If these republicans are scared to death of a 15-year-old, what will they do sitting across the table from Putin or Xi, piss themselves? And just how do they think they can beat Trump in the primaries without criticizing him?

This is the same Quinn Mitchell who managed to spook Ron DeSantis at two campaign events earlier in the year. Actually, the kid did nothing out of the ordinary. DeSantis managed to spook himself (like Igor seeing his own hand while breaking into the Brain Depository in Young Frankestein). Quinn asked him a question at the end of a press gaggle when DeSantis was rushed for time and video of DeSantis rushing to a bus made it LOOK like he was dodging a question from a 15 year old. The kid realized that, especially after the video went viral and attempted to ask Ron a question at a parade a couple of weeks later to give the Governor a chance to answer a softball question without a meter running. DeSantis IMMEDIATELY turned away and his staff prevented the kid from walking at pace with the parade car DeSantis was on.
Within a few days of THAT event, Quinn was forcibly removed by police officers at an event in New Hampshire sponsored by the state Republican Committee.
When your party is running candidates afraid of fielding questions from 15 year olds...

They are scared to death of the insane zombie base that they spent years creating with help from a cynical right wing media.
The Grand Old Party is no more. The party of Lincoln has been turned into the party of George Lincoln Rockwell. Proudly fascist.

Pretty amazing coincidince, what with two different candidates, four different events, multiple states and two different Republican state committees and all...
Seems like pretty consistent direction to me... "Avoid public incidents where you could become a viral 30-second video short as you are outwitted by a precocious teen who can't even vote."
