This was inevitable given that his opponent’s name’s Forest Wright. Forest Wright, Forrest Gump – it’s so easy half the voters are thinkin’ it before Skrmetta even says it.

And every politician secretly wants to paint his opponent as the dumb guy on the park bench. But this doesn’t actually do that – it just makes the reference. That’s not Forest Wright on the park bench, it’s just him gettin’ cut to ribbons by the dumb guy on the park bench. Which might even be better.

Skrmetta’s gonna burn the Forest down next week; everybody knows that. Now we can see he’s gonna have some fun doin’ it.
