It rarely works out well for politicians to be on social media. As much as they can connect with the general public, it also opens the door to post statements to the world with no filter and no one there to tell them that what they’re saying is insane. The best example of this has to be Iowa Senator Chuck Grassley. His posts barely count as communication in the English language. It’s baffling that a man in such a powerful position could share…whatever it is that he’s trying to share. Here are some of the most outrageous and bizarre tweets from Chuck Grassley’s Twitter account.
1. I’m not sure what exactly he’s been doing at Dairy Queen.
Windsor Heights Dairy Queen is good place for u kno what

2. Maybe just do multiple tweets instead of making “PantsBurnLegWound” one word?
Work on farm Fri. Burning piles of brush WindyFire got out of control. Thank God for good naber He help get undr control PantsBurnLegWound

3. Seriously, what are you doing at Dairy Queen, Chuck?
I’m at the Jefferson Iowa DairyQueen doing “you know what” !!!

4. First of all, it’s 140 characters. Second, he could’ve easily included vowels in this tweet and had plenty of room to spare.
Quit complaining abt my Twitter shorthand I know how to spell But Twitter limit is 120 characters

5. Speaking of shorthand, what on earth is this even supposed to say?
Evrybody asking how Romney”relates”to avg person Me thinks”no problem” but if so I hv answer “just lv starch out of shirt”

6. He’s very passionate about the lack of historic programming on the History Channel.
I’ve turned to history. Channel. Several times this wkend always Pawn Shop. No history. Change nAme of channel to no history

7. Instead of @ replying the Pope, he just assumes the Pope will stumble across his account.
Welcome to Twitter Pope Benedict. U will find it useful and interesting

8. Hey at least this proves he knows how @ replies work.

10. Then there was the deer hitting incident…
Fred and I hit a deer on hiway 136 south of Dyersville. After I pulled fender rubbing on tire we continued to farm. Assume deer dead
— ChuckGrassley (@ChuckGrassley) October 26, 2012
11. He assumed the deer was dead, but it still seems to haunt him.
U hv herad saying:”deer in headlight look”. It is a frightening xperience when a real deer is there
— ChuckGrassley (@ChuckGrassley) December 1, 2012
12. Don’t worry. He cleared everything up!

14. It feels like this one would have been an easy one to spellcheck.

15. His genius clearly isn’t limited to just the internet.
Pretty simple invention but very cheap and it works. But u need big lawn to maneuver in pic.twitter.com/whczT1SU2S
