More “Profiles in Courage” from the GOP: Special Victims Unit.
Yep, old Ron “Albino” Johnson was positive that anything the GOP could come up with wouldn’t be nearly cruel enough.
wanted to be a good influence, like tRUmp being a role model for the scouts
There are better ways to be a good influence than being a Republican shit-head fuck-your-constituents-over dick, I should think.
I just listened to McCain’s speech. It makes their vote all the more disgusting. When McCain made the comment about doing work “for the public good” it made me want to throw this Android right out the fucking window.
Johnson can shove his “positive influence” up his own ass.
Ah, that’s where you went wrong right there.
Rule of thumb: Never ever underestimate the abject cravenness of Rethugliklans.
"[My friend] sold his company for a tremendous amount of money. And he went out and bought a big yacht. And he had a very … interesting life. I won’t go into any more than that cause you’re Boy Scouts, so I’m not going to tell you what he did.” [smirk]
— Comrade Coir Coif, speaking at the 2017 National Scout Jamboree, demonstrating his suitability as a role model by not telling the 12-to-18-year-old scouts about his “friend” drugging and screwing underage girls on his “big yacht.”
Always a class act.
Nope. Thisa was about bartering for a vote they already had. All of Rojoke’s posturing was for favor. Period.
He also admitted that seeing McCain show up in the chamber a yes vote made it harder for him to vote no.
“That would have been a pretty tough no vote,” Johnson said
“I was happy to join Senator McCain,” he added.
“I mean, if the GOP’s ‘Hero,’ the ‘Maverick’ came all the way from intensive care, paid for by his taxpayer salary, on a plane paid for by taxpayers, to help strip 2X,000,000 of those taxpayers of their own health care, how could I, a healthy guy that can afford whatever health care I need/want not join with Senator McCain???”
Kabuki Theater posturing. That is all.

IOW: "I am a spineless scum-filled douche bag."
Profiles in Lack of Courage.
And I am a bit surprised WI voters keep putting up with his no-talent performances. Of course, there’s always voter fraud to answer just how he won re-election.
Mrs. Johnson: “Now Ronnie, if Johnny jumped off a cliff, would you have jumped with him?”
Ron Johnson: “But, Mom, it would have been pretty tough to say no!”
Political theatre. Thank you, RoJo, for the entertaining minutes where it almost appeared you might have cared about the people of Wisconsin.
The stupidest man in the Senate is an ass-licking tool of the stupidest president in history.
Why do I always get this feeling that Johnson has a taxpayer-paid staffer next to him whose only job is reminding the dumbass senator to remember how to breathe?
With guys like this in the chamber, Caligula’s horse looks like a pretty good fucking idea.
I guess he didn’t realize he could volunteer delivering lunches for Meals-on-Wheels.
Well, in fairness, as Trump’s excellent budget director already informed us, that program wasn’t really delivering the goods.
“‘That would have been a pretty tough no vote,’ Johnson said."
Not if you have a heart and half a brain.
