Actor Randy Quaid is not happy with Adam Schiff following the California congressman’s bizarre behavior during a House Intelligence Committee hearing this week. The “Independence Day” star took to his Twitter account on Friday afternoon to threaten a possible political challenge against Schiff. “I’m thinking about running against Schiff for Burbank Rep. That swamp needs cleaning up big time. I should know. I have serious winning experience emptying the sh***ers for that district,” he tweeted.

The actor is outspoken in his support for President Donald Trump, but he also has a history of legal issues which led him to leave California. Still, whether he is serious or not, fans had plenty of positive things to say about Quaid taking on Schiff in the political arena. “Quaid 2020. ‘Hello boys! I’m baaaack!!!!'” wrote one fan, referencing Quaid’s famous line from 1996’s “Independence Day.” Quaid 2020 “Hello boys!

Hell maybe we’ll move back ha ha#Trump2020Landslide #Quaid2020Landslide — peter escalante🎶🎵🎼🎸 (@Pete_Escalante) September 27, 2019 Before threatening Schiff with a possible challenge, Quaid went after Democrats for trying to “undermine” Trump with this latest nothing-burger controversy around the now infamous Ukraine phone call. “Clinton, Schiff, Pelosi plotting with lawyers to undermine the power of the president to negotiate on behalf of USA. They’re putting all Americans in danger. Arrest these traitors, lawyers & all, for America’s security. Let them spend Trump’s second term in jail,” the 68-year-old actor tweeted.

Watching Schiff in hearings and only one thing comes to mind: Crazy-eyes traitor. 🇺🇸 — Randy Quaid (@RandyRRQuaid) September 26, 2019 Quaid previously called out Hollywood leftist stars openly pushing for the blacklisting of conservative artists. As an actor, he is best known for his role as Cousin Eddie in the “Vacation” movies. He was also nominated for an Academy Award in 1974 for his role in “The Last Detail.” Another star from the “Vacation” franchise, Christie Brinkley, will be appearing on ABC’s “The Goldbergs” where she is reprising her classic role from the original “Vacation” film. Based on the images already released, she has not aged a day since the 1983 film. Will he win??? I have no idea, but he will make it a very, very lively campaign, and it will attract a lot of attention !!! Can you imagine him showing up for a debate, or a Committee Hearing, dressed like he did for the famous scene from Christmas Vacation ? Photo of which is at the link. Man, what a hoot !!!! I CAN HARDLY WAIT !!!!
I think this is GREAT !!! His candidacy will really liven up that race. Will get a LOT of national attention, it will be very humorous !!!! And Quaid will make a lot of statements that will not be typical political speak. They will NEVER know what he is going to say, and will not be able to be prepared for him !!!!

Do it, Quaid!
I really like the guy (Quaid) but I think he exhibited some bizarre behavior of his own a few years back. What really happened to Randy Quaid Randy and Evi starred in a self-funded, self-produced documentary called Star Whackers in 2011. The film chronicled the couple's decade-long attempts to elude alleged specialized Hollywood assassins. Vancouver Sun film critic Peter Birnie referred to the flick as "drugged-out dreck," slamming Randy. "Spouting Shakespeare as he stands in a full-length fur coat with penis hanging out, Quaid must compete with a howling wind. Falstaff he ain't, especially when the coat comes off and we're left to watch naked nuttiness signifying nothing." *** That being said, I'd still vote for him over Adam Schiff.
Government is in the last resort the employment of armed men, of policemen, gendarmes, soldiers, prison guards, and hangmen. Schiff is a pretty safe incumbent. I suppose it doesn't hurt the GOP or its other candidates much to have a whackadoodle like Quaid running in a hopeless race against Schiff, as long as Quaid doesn't say anything too awful. CA is a state where Ahnold won governor as a GOPe twice. And Roseanne Barr once ran for presidential nomination of the Green Party but she lost the nomination fight to Jill Stein. That was in the 2012 race. I suppose the nation will survive a Quaid for Congress campaign.
Oh, I think it will. I think we will even get a few good laughs out of it. As crazy as Quaid is, if he got elected, he would be a vast improvement over Pencil Neck, and he would give the Commiecrats a lot of heartburn !!! I would imagine he would spew huge amounts about the commiecrats that most all other GOPers do not have the balls to even think, much less say. Most all GOPers are a bunch of pussies, afraid of their shadow. I suspect Quaid would go after them much more fiercely than even Trump!! I do not think Quaid will be PC !! We all have bitched about the GOPers being a bunch of spineless pussies that won't fight back !! Well, here is a guy that I think will, and I don't believe he will pull any punches !! What's not to like in that ? I cannot vote for him, I do not live in that shithole state, thank God ! I welcome his campaign, and hope he wins !!!!

It's a little hard to imagine the RNC giving him any money even if he does win the primary. He may hurt a GOP candidate who could actually get elected. Quaid is homeless and his wife is mentally ill. The GOP doesn't want that available for libmedia to make the face of the party. It all reminds me a little of Jim Traficant.
Well, we will see. I still would like to see him run

As far as actors go, I would love to see Clint Eastwood run for Congress !!!

Clint is too smart to do that. He recalls his years trying to hold the line as mayor of Carmel. Besides, Clint will turn 90 next year so he wouldn't have much chance to build congressional seniority.
Well, sadly, that is all true. But would sure be wonderful for someone like him to be there, rather than the wussies we have now!

Actor Randy Quaid is not happy with Adam Schiff following the California congressman’s bizarre behavior during a House Intelligence Committee hearing this week.
Evi spoke to Vanity Fair about the film in 2011, telling the magazine that she and Randy spend nights in their car "when we're too terrified to leave our stuff or don't feel secure." She insisted, "They're hunting us. It's really happening. They've got us in a spiral. 'Don't let up on 'em. Drive 'em off the road. Starve 'em to death. Pull their money out of their bank accounts.'" Randy added, "I guess I'm worth more to 'em dead than alive."
The couple said the concept of Star Whackers emerged when Quaid stopped receiving royalty checks in the mail, and, naturally, the pair considered assassins to be at the root of the problem. Randy and Evi said they believed the 2009 death of their friend, actor David Carradine, by hanging was also the work of whackers. "They decide, O.K., if we knock off David, then what we can do is simply collect the insurance covering his participation in the television show he was working on overseas," Evi told the magazine. "It's almost moronic, it's so simple." The couple claimed actor Heath Ledger's drug overdose was also connected to assassins.
Though some sources suggested Evi was driving Randy's bizarre behavior, the actor chalked that up to conspiracy too. "They wanted to separate us," he told Vanity Fair, "because Evi is very intuitive and very smart. She's the smartest person I know. You can call her crazy, you can call her whatever you want, but she is my lifeline, and if she wasn't with me, I don't know where I'd be."
The essential feature of government is the enforcement of its decrees by beating, killing, and imprisoning.
Those who are asking for more government interference are asking ultimately for more compulsion and less freedom.
