Robert Morrow is the newest Republican Party chair of Travis County, the Texas territory that contains the state capital, Austin. He appears to be an absolute lunatic.

I don’t mean “Donald Trump” crazy, or “Rand Paul” crazy. Between his tweets, public statements, and website, he is “I’m wearing pants made out of snakes, I am Son of God” crazy. According to the Texas Tribune, the state GOP is “apoplectic” over Morrow’s ascent to chairman, in spite of his long record of completely batshittedness. He seems to spend most of his time being angry about the existence of the Clinton family (indeed, he co-authored a book titled “The Clintons’ War on Women” with another recent crazy person in the news, Roger Stone).

He is InfoWars meets Weird Twitter:

He is obsessed with outlandish, fringe theories about gay politicians:

His Twitter bio reads: “Google Jeb Bush Murder of CIA Drug Smuggler Barry Seal 1986 and you will learn a lot about Jeb Bush & Oliver North.” That’s the entire bio. I did google it, and the results are just his tweets. He runs a blog on the subject, however, which I also checked out. It’s described thusly:

This blog is about how the Bushes and Oliver North murdered CIA drug smuggler Barry Seal in 1986 in order to keep a lid on Iran-Contra and government’s and Bush family participation in CIA drug smuggling to support the Nicaraguan contras (and no doubt to skim some off the top for themselves). Read two books “Barry and the Boys” by Daniel Hopsicker and “Compromised: Clinton, Bush and the CIA” by Terry Reed and you will never look at modern American politics in the same way again.

Here’s Morrow explaining a theory about Rick Perry being bisexual, or something:

Robert Morrow is an avid Facebook user:

Robert Morrow enjoys sharing content with his Facebook followers from groups such as “I Really Love Boobs”:

Robert Morrow endorses Ted Cruz, according to another one of his blogs, rickperryfraudhypocrite.blogspot.com:

Ted Cruz and Ben Carson over Donald Trump. Donald Trump has actually said that a lone nut Oswald killed JFK, which tells me he is too stupid to be president.

Robert Morrow’s second in command in Travis County told the Tribune that “he is a total disaster” and that “I will not rest until we remove him as chairman.” Morrow’s response: “Tell them they can go fuck themselves.”

Over 25,000 Texans voted for Robert Morrow. He could not be reached for the purposes of this post.
