George Takei is a wonder – he has accused his Star Trek co-star William Shatner of being a “psychopath” for years with no evidence of such an extraordinary claim, and now he seems to be living under yet another delusion: that Gary Johnson is in favor of the Trans Pacific Partnership and hates poor people:
Oh, George…
The problem, of course, is that Johnson has gone on record denouncing the TPP (as I have reported on myself before), and being in favor of Universal Basic Income as a means of replacing the ever-rising minimum wage that never actually helps the poor anyway.
But do any of those facts actually matter to Takei? It wouldn’t seem so. Instead, he would rather fear monger and turn voters away from the only electable candidate this year who is honest and holds an exemplary administrative track record. Over what? A handful of issues Takei clearly knows jack about?
The problem, however, is that many of Takei’s fans might just listen to him. So despite us wishing we could ignore such foolishness, we must respond. And respond we have.
Live long and prosper, George – check your facts next time.
