How we might describe the debate in western Kentucky

Lots of ways to say “Trump lost, bigly.”

I’m trying to decide which old-time Kentucky expression works best for last night’s debate.

“Harris smacked him into the middle of next week” and “beat him like a drum” are two of the few family-friendly ones I know. Most of rest aren’t even PG. But I’ll clean those up. 

I’m leaning toward, “Harris stomped a mudhole in Trump’s butt and stomped it dry again,” with “Harris opened up a can of whoop-ass on Trump” finishing second.

Obviously, Harris “flustrated” Trump. How badly did she flustrate him?

  • “He couldn’t find his butt with both hands.”
  • “Didn’t know his butt from deep center field.”
  • And, "didn’t know whether to s___ or go blind.”

Of course, there was also the rampant lying by Trump. Some down-home descriptions of the amount of lies told by the Orange Fuerher:

  • He “lied like a rug.”
  • Similarly, he “lied like a dog.”
  • “Wouldn’t know the truth if it bit him in the a__”
  • And, “would’t know the truth if it hit him upside the head.” 

And in the end, Trump got “madder than the nearsighted snake that fell in love with a garden hose.”

Can you think of others? Put them in the comments below.
