A story about KY GOP Senate nominee Andy Barr:

In 2019 he got mad at AOC and demanded she come to his district to visit a coal mine.

She said yes, which he didn't expect, so he withdrew the invitation.

Then it turned out there were no working coal mines in his district. Because he's an idiot. 1/3
