Car Parades Come to Cox World

The World's Most Useless form of Campaign Tactic is Coming back to Montgomery County

Here in my car
I feel safest of all
I can lock all my doors
It's the only way to live in cars

• Gary Neuman, “Cars”

The world’s most useless form of campaigning is back in Maryland.

A group calling itself “Concerned Americans Seeking Truth” is sponsoring a Car Rally at the Montgomery Mall on Sunday, June 26th.

Car parades and their bastard cousins the boat parade were popular during the 2020 Election with Trump supporters. Now, they have bled over to the Cox campaign.

As I have noted previously, there is a certain segment of Republicans focused on nonsense activities. The three protests that seem to generate the most enthusiasm for this group are:

• Overpass Waving;

• Car Parades;

• Boat Parades;

At no point do these folks do the following:

• Knock doors for candidates;

• Make phone calls for candidates;

• Recruit candidates for office.

I can’t imagine that this car parade will end well, nor do I think it will generate a whole lot of Montgomery County enthusiasm for Dan Cox. But as we have seen time and time again, winning elections seems to be secondary for that segment of the modern GOP.
