Scott Terry is either a terribly ignorant and deluded individual, or the troll of the frickin' decade.

That guy rings all my troll bells. And I've been on the internet for twenty years. I have a lot of troll bells.
Nonetheless, if so, this is exactly how trolling should work -- getting people to bite, and catching them. People did laugh, people did applaud . . . and the GOP, thereby, continues fucking that chicken.

Either you make your institutions less democratic, or you hear from whack jobs. I'm accepting of the latter.

At one point, a woman challenged him on the Republican Party’s roots, to which Terry responded, “I didn’t know the legacy of the Republican Party included women correcting men in public.”

Even the title of that CPAC session is kind of nuts and seething with white entitlement / anger:
"Trump The Race Card: Are You Sick And Tired Of Being Called A Racist When You Know You’re Not One?”

Yeah.."loony guy shows up at meeting" isn't quite the devastating expose of the dark underbelly of the conservative movement I was hoping for. Unless it turns out that this loon has some position of authority somewhere I don't see how this is a story.

Attendees interviewed by TPM afterwards expressed outrage at the way the event turned out. Not at Terry and Heimbach — they were mad at Brown for her interruptions
FFFFFUUUUUUUU *Inarticulate rage garble*

A perfect point in the past for Tea Party libertarians to point to when they want to show how the free market decides.

From the article:
At one point, a woman challenged him on the Republican Party’s roots, to which Terry responded, “I didn’t know the legacy of the Republican Party included women correcting men in public.”
He has to be trolling.

“Let someone else speak!” one attendee in Revolutionary War garb shouted.
That just about says it all.
