Last week, Politico reported that Kemp believes that Loeffler can help staunch the flow of suburban and female voters fleeing the party.
Hope that works as well as Sarah Palin

Maybe we’ve romanticized the Sopranos too much. The pride the GOP feels about their devotion to the whims of their thug figurehead seems justified by some popular norm. The attraction escapes me, but it sure is powerful for them.

Gaetz is an idiot.

During a meeting at the White House last month, Trump reportedly aired his concerns that Loeffler lacks the right amount of political experience to receive the appointment and also took issue with how Loeffler was not an original 2016 Trump campaign supporter.

At least we know the real reason Trump isn’t fond of Loeffler.

I sincerely hope Turd is right about Douche’s career being over. It doesn’t improve my opinion of Turd.

It’s a lot of pent-up and ginned up rage.

The ginned up part is from Murdoch–a multi-billionaire–and people like him

Well I’m sure the huddled masses are gratified that the federal estate tax exemption was lifted from $5.49 M to $11.4M. Power to the people!

Harnessing/ginning up populist rage to enrich the rich is a cool trick.

So much for States’ Rights.

The Constitution is quite clear that the President has final say-so over any Senate or Congressional appointments.

Hopefully, this ass-clown Gaetz will soon find himself in a situation which requires the former reality TV show host to emerge on the scene and declare, “I don’t know Matt Gaetz.”
