Caption This Photo: Walker Stapleton Goes Plinkin'

As posted to Twitter yesterday, Republican gubernatorial candidate Walker Stapleton taking some time off work “the campaign trail” to punch some smoky holes in some paper:

Unfortunately for the GOP’s newly-minted presumptive favorite in the governor’s race, a close examination of Stapleton’s performance against said offending paper targets, who by the way never did a thing to Walker Stapleton, deflates some of the chest-thumping manly bravado of the scene:

Nice grouping, Tex! And of course, being staged for the camera we have no way of knowing what sort of handicap Stapleton may have enjoyed on his way to losing the match–one yard for three? We’ll never know for sure, but for political efficacy Stapleton probably should have paid the other guy to swap targets.

He’s got the money. On the other hand,

Another way to look at this is that when it comes to embarrassing one’s self with a gun, Walker Stapleton is just keeping up the family tradition.

Guy: Right. Let's try this one more time. If you eat the paste, we're not going to be able to make the mobile. Look at those pretty blue circles. If we get this right you can go to sleep watching them spin and spin…

Stapler: Paste good.

So did I pass the RMGO endorsement questionnaire?

Almost. Almost, Walker. Now try the bump-stock circle again.

  Jared doesn't waste taxpayer dollars by going shooting during business hours. Doesn't Walker have a job?

"Now remember when the next Middle School shooting occurs you will need to put your handgun in your waistband and then put your hand over your heart and tell the press how your thoughts and prayers go out to the loved ones of the deceased. Make it look like your about to breakdown and cry. At all costs don't get caught breaking out laughing at what a farce the Republican Pro-Life position is. That would be like shooting yourself in your balls. Got that?"
