President Donald Trump on Tuesday derided the appearances of Sen. Jon Ossoff, D-Ga., and Texas Democratic Senate candidate James Talarico, likening them to pop culture figures.Talarico, Trump suggested, resembled Alfred E. Neuman, the mascot character of MAD Magazine. Ossoff, meanwhile, he compared to Pee-wee Herman. In a Truth Social post, Trump posted side-by-side images of the candidates and their pop-culture counterparts.
“Isn’t it strange, the Dumocrats are running a man in Texas who looks virtually identical to Alfred E. Neuman, of MAD Magazine fame and, in Georgia, they’re running someone who looks like a twin to the Late, Great, Pee-wee Herman,” Trump posted on Truth Social. “With these two horrible Political Candidates, I don’t know if there’s a genetic tree, but it certainly is close! What do you think?”
“In any event, Mike Collins, of Georgia, should easily beat Pee-wee, and Ken Paxton, of Texas, should easily beat Alfred E. Vote Republican and, MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!” he added.
Rep. Mike Collins, R-Ga., is running against Ossoff while state Attorney General Ken Paxton faces Talarico. Both received Trump’s endorsement.
