Maine Gov. Paul LePage (R) has said so many crazy things and enough really disgusting things that at this point he almost gets a pass from people since it’s just expected. But, man, some of the things aren’t just ‘Yeah, that’s terrible. Let’s definitely write that up‘ but ‘Good Lord, I can’t believe the governor of a state said something like that’. Here’s the actual words: “These are guys with the name D-Money, Smoothie, Shifty… these types of guys… they come from Connecticut and New York, they come up here, they sell their heroin, they go back home. Incidentally, half the time they impregnate a young, white girl before they leave, which is a real sad thing because then we have another issue we have to deal with down the road.”
