Rep. Bob Goodlatte’s (R-VA) son Bobby Goodlatte tweeted on Sunday that he made the maximum allowable donation to the campaign of the Democrat seeking to replace his father — Jennifer Lewis — and encouraged his followers to do the same.
I just gave the maximum allowed donation to Jennifer Lewis, a democrat running for my father's congressional seat. I've also gotten 5 other folks to commit to donate the max. 2018 is the year to flip districts — let's do this! https://t.co/bYCKta2Bhs

Linking to the campaign website for Lewis, Bobby Goodlatte — a product designer and investor, according to his Twitter profile — expressed his interest in flipping districts for Democrats in 2018, apparently even his father’s.
Rep. Bob Goodlatte is one of more than 40 Republicans leaving Congress this year, either to retire or seek another office. Virginia State Delegate Ben Cline won the Republican primary to replace Goodlatte and will face off against Lewis this November.
Both a spokesperson for Rep. Goodlatte’s office and a message sent to his son were not returned immediately returned.
How sharper than a serpent’s tooth…
At least his dad has announced his retirement, so the son is not stabbing him in the back (or telling him to spend more time with the family). Still got to wonder what Thanksgiving and Christmas dinners will be like.
Good for the son of Goodlatte-R. Take America back from Trump - support Democrats who are trying to take seats held by republicans-trumpers. Support Archie Parnell (D) against Ralph Norman ® in the South Carolina District 5 race - Norman is a Mulvaney clone developer who says Trump is one of the greatest presidents America has ever had.
I wonder, sometimes, if a generation raised with Fox News on 24/7 at home, and AM radio (or whatever RWNJ Sirius XM Station there is) on in the family car, with grow up as brainwashed GOP minions or rebellious Dems.
If his dad gave one shit about America , he would vote the same way too
Rebellious Dems. The last couple of decades have been the perfect background object lesson too.
