Well, it seems that good ole sugar britches is back…

He showed up at the Austin City Limits Music Fest today claiming a bad case of the flu had him bedridden

Sounds like bullshite, but no way will anyone in our prestigious media actually dig for the truth in this…

Paxton will win, but I was pleased to see Talarico absent - oh well…

Yep. And it took him out for nearly two weeks. No mention of it until today, of course.

I got the flu last week on vacation. Started Saturday and the worst day was Sunday when we got home. Outside of not being able to eat unitl today, I could still halfway function after about day 4 but I was very weak from no food. Today I am still weak and am finally able to eat

Perhaps the worst flu I have ever had and it still only lasted 7 days

My wife got it a day after me and she went and got a steroid shot and recovered quicker than I did. I will be doing that next time.

Well, you don't engage in those activities that give you the butt flu diarrhea.

You know that no serious person ever believed this, right?

What kind of insane media bubble are you consuming to arrive at this conclusion??

You think a September flu put him down for nearly two weeks?

Is it even contagious after a few days?

Is that fig a parent?

Parents know “the flu” has been going around for a month now. I don’t buy this excuse regardless. He had a mental breakdown and needed to reconfigure his psych meds.

Oh so Kari Lake posting he was out for Bottom Surgery was just transphobic garbage? Shocked.

Is there a picture of him there? Seems strange to attend an event as a major Senate candidate and not put out photos.

I had the flu two weeks ago here

Well yeah, of course he did.

There was never any serious doubt that he wouldn’t show back up.

Key word: serious.

No media bubble. It's literally incredible that he was out that long---WITH NO VIDEO/PHOTOS---with a bad flu.
