Aaron Coleman, in this video, claims that: 1) His father's prescribed medications for his unnamed disability (but has been claimed elsewhere to be psychiatric) are "trash" put out by the "pharmaceutical industry", and he could "smoke a single joint and be fine" https://twitter.com/Aaron4KS37/status/1324838698932994053 …

He goes on to claim he is in touch with the woman whose photo he spread in 2012, and that last night she told him her dismay over "her story being used for political purposes"
Show this thread -
This is despite the fact that we all know about her story IN THE FIRST PLACE because she and two other accusers spammed it all over Facebook SPECIFICALLY TO TRY TO STOP HIM WINNING THE ELECTION, and that she explicitly told the KC Star that he should not be holding office
Show this thread -
Aaron's tactic has consistently been to act like this story has been "dug up" by Democratic Party ratfuckers, rather than his victims proactively calling him out
Show this thread -
He has lied about this before, like saying that his victims and their families preemptively blocked him, as opposed to the revenge porn victim's aunt telling the KC Star she blocked him on Facebook because she felt harassed by him

I find it very difficult to believe his victim, whom HE SAID blocked him on every platform, took the initiative to unblock him and tell him she now had no objection to him getting seated Especially that she'd say this to him personally and not anywhere else

One of the most disgustingly consistent things Aaron's defenders say is that he's been honest and owned up to everything he's done He has not He is a persistent, consistent and shameless liar, and he only admits things when he has no fucking choice

3) Aaron describes his victory as a 65-35 "landslide" saying "THIRTY. FIVE. HUNDRED. PEOPLE" voted for him as though that's a high number He was running unopposed on the ballot against a write-in campaign, in a district of TWENTY THOUSAND people

He received about the same number of votes that his opponent Stan Frownfelter did when he ran unopposed two years ago He got onto the ballot unopposed by beating Stan Frownfelter in an 814-800 election, one of the lowest-turnout votes in a primary this year

4) Aaron claims that "the DNC" was specifically trying to stop his election -- he says this repeatedly and his interviewer agrees with him, that the orders came from "The DNC itself" The grandiose delusions are coming fast and furious, and are indistinguishable from MAGA shit

5) Aaron argues that the Democratic Party is over, and that "a third-party candidate" will run in 2022 that will be the Democratic Party's death knell

(There's no presidential election that year, obviously, so I assume he means the KS governor race -- why this would end the national Democratic Party I dunno) He says if the Democrats were capable of doing anything, there'd have been a "blue wave" in 2016 and 2020
Show this thread -
He seems to have no comment on the fact that the term "blue wave" became a meme in the first place because of the 2018 midterms, but whatever

6) The interview finishes up with the interviewer saying "If everyone knew what I did when I was 12, I'd be publicly shamed too" It's great when people tell on themselves like this
Show this thread -
It goes on to have Aaron sarcastically thank the KC Star for "millions of dollars in free advertising", and then the interviewer snarks that "they need to sell papers"; Aaron agrees that "print media is dying", and the interviewer complains their coverage of Aaron is paywalled
Show this thread -
Apparently not realizing they just contradicted themselves, and the very fact that it's paywalled is why it probably had a very limited effect on the race (I actually agree with them that the paywall is obnoxious -- it's probably a major reason Aaron won the election)

Anyway, I probably didn't even cover every point from the interview, because I had to skim through it because I literally cannot fucking stand this shitbird's face or his voice for more than a few seconds at a time But *everything he says* is some flavor of horseshit
