Comedian Trolls Republicans With Hilarious Parody Websites

Chances are you’ve never heard of Toby Morton, who has written for comedy shows and also provided voices for characters on “South Park.”

But Morton is playing a major role in the 2022 midterm elections, and his acquisition of website domains that he turns into parody pages mocking congressional Republicans is drawing national attention, according to The New York Post:

On elisestefanik2022.com, the upstate congresswoman’s slogan is shown as “Let’s Keep It White,” and a whole page is dedicated to replacement theory — the fringe idea that elites and Democrats are creating lax immigration policies to replace and disenfranchise white Americans.

Her mock “About Me” section says: “I am a vile and disgusting politician who is responsible for the Buffalo NY shooting spree,” referring to the recent massacre where gunman Payton Gendron allegedly slaughtered 10 Black people and wounded three other shoppers at a supermarket. 

The domains are incredibly cheap, usually costing less than $20 each, and they allow Morton to go after House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA), who is ridiculed with three words at kevinmccarthy2022.com: “Kompromat. Coward. Adulterer?”

There’s also comedy gold at Congressmanmattgaetz.com, which will take you to the Wikipedia page for “sex trafficking.”

As you’d expect, the politicians being skewered are not the least bit amused by what Morton is doing, with Alex deGrasse, a spokesman for Rep. Stefanik remarking:

“He spends all his time as a troll on social media, a scam PAC artist launching sexist and false attacks against Republican female leaders, and raising money for himself under the congresswoman’s name in a desperate attempt to gain acceptance from the radical left blue checkmark brigade. We pray he gets the therapy and a real job he so desperately needs.”

Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) got so peeved by Morton’s online jabs at her she had her office send him a cease and desist letter in which she accused him of defamed her and used photos of her without permission, which led the comedian to note:

“I think they just wanted to scare me, so they sent this stupid email.”

As we’ve always suspected, Republicans have no sense of humor whatsoever. Especially when they’re the butt of the joke.
