VIRGINIA: Cyclist Fired In 2018 For Flipping Off Trump Wins Seat In District That Includes Trump Golf Resort
November 6, 2019Democrats, Donald Trump

The Washington Post reports:

A legion of reasons propel political neophytes to run for office, but none may be as unusual as what inspired Juli Briskman, the cyclist who gave President Trump the finger two years ago and found herself without a job and at the center of a national uproar.

On Tuesday, Briskman got a new job, winning a seat on the Loudoun County Board of Supervisors — ousting a Republican in the process. “It’s feeling fantastic, it’s feeling surreal,” Briskman, 52, a Democrat, said by telephone as she celebrated her victory. “The last two years have been quite a ride. Now we’re helping to flip Loudoun blue.”

As it turns out, Briskman’s district includes a certain golf course owned by a certain president. “Isn’t that sweet justice?” she asked, her cackle suggesting that she knew the answer to her own question.

Not sure why that would matter.

And?

You guys have no sense of humor.

You guys have no sense of humor.

They're trumpbaggers. They only have the emotions programmed into them by their master.

 

[silasstarr]

You guys have no sense of humor.

Of course they don’t. They are Trump supporters. Trump himself has the charm and wit of a doorknob.

They are a little red-assed this morning after last night. Once they get their daily injection of Hannity and the dopamine starts to flow, they’ll be in a better mood.

Cool!

That’s because you lack awareness.

 

[lucas80]

Cool!

Free speech.

I'm guessing a seat on a board of supervisors probably doesn't pay the bills. That said I'm curious about what company fired her for flipping off the POTUS.

 

[hexumhawk]

Just another cyclist that wont use the god damn sidewalk or get out of the way. They should have just ran her over.

You sound pretty stupid. Are you?

Glad you took the time to edit this great response.

Classy

Thanks. It was an agonizing decision.

Please please turn this into a bicycling thread! I love those!

 

[IowaHawkeyeFBnBB4Life]

Cool!

Only reason why Dems voted for her, she probably has zero substance besides this picture.

What happened last night? The Badgers lost in basketball...that was good. What made it even better was I took Wisconsin and the points and covered.

She’s using a flat bar so you can’t take her seriously. Between that and her use of the finger, she’s pretty much just like a child.

He'll let you know later. Apparently he's studying for his urine test on Thursday.

You gamble? That's morally repugnant.

LOL... it was the Trumpsters that were snowflakes here... else she wouldn't have been fired.

Trump supporters fired her? I must have missed that article.

Johnson Cty Supervisors make bank. So do Linn Cty Supervisors. I can't speak to her county, but BOS usually do okay.

 

[gonegolfing]

Shocking. A trashy bicyclist is a democrat.

 

[Jan Itor]

As we’re all aware, free speech can be met with unforeseen consequences.

I bet she rolls through stop signs!!!

Looked it up, it seems like the board of supervisors are the rough equal to county commissioners here although I think they might have more power.
