These people cannot get out of their own way. While not a story emanating from the United States, across the pond, our cousins in Britain ousted the president of the Oxford Union. Members voted in a no-confidence motion overwhelmingly to boot George Abaraonye after his atrocious remarks about Charlie Kirk following his assassination on September 10. Abaraonye brought the motion for a vote himself. When he lost, Abaraonye essentially claimed voter fraud—you cannot make this stuff up (via BBC):
The president-elect of the Oxford Union has lost a no-confidence vote after he was criticised for comments appearing to celebrate the death of Charlie Kirk.
The motion against George Abaraonye had met the required two-thirds threshold to oust the student from his position, the society has announced.
