DOES BOB MCDONUT MISS HAVING A FANCY POLITICAL TITLE ??
Nobody really knows why Hawaii GOP state chair Shirlene Ostrov’s right hand man Bob McDermott, the party’s lackluster vice-chair for candidate recruitment, decided to challenge Ewa Beach GOP state senator and Kurt Fevella in 2026. During the past eight years, Fevella governed EXACTLY how everyone expected he would, after earning the hearty endorsement of Ostrov and McDermott for his current seat in the legislature. WHY challenge Fevella, when McDermott and Fevella alike are both political disciples of Mufi Hannemann and the same tax and spend policies which enrich labor unions and loads of other special interest groups at your expense? Fevella’s voting record presents ZERO surprises. So, with Fevella having done what Ostrov and McDermott expected of him during two terms in office, why bother changing fake elephants midstream? Ewa Beach voters can just hold their noses and vote for the incumbent knowing that Fevella has championed the agenda of Ostrov’s donkey infested Hawaii GOP, even if it bears no resemblance to Trump’s or even Bush’s Republican Party. Too bad an actual conservative didn’t challenge Fevella. THAT would have been interesting!
