GOP Sen After Trump Fires DHS Official: ‘I Don’t Even Know What’s Normal Anymore’

Sen. John Cornyn (R-TX) — who’s dutifully condoned President Donald Trump’s corrupt antics like the rest of the GOP for the past four years — is baffled by the chaos that’s emerged for some inexplicable reason in recent weeks.

Trump could nuke San Francisco and GOP Senators would caution we should all wait for a damage assessment before rushing to judgment.

Welp, as an effort of sacrifice, Johnny, you can award your seat to M.J. That will allow for more cooperation to get things moving.

B/t/w…snark aside, this is GOP movement…Rubio…Kilmeade…Cornyn tiptoe-ing toward the edge (the “edge” meaning civilized democratic process)

“Next normal”. Is that like an admission that you’ll accept the next GOP POTUS acting like a fascist?

It’s the President’s prerogative, but I think it just adds to the confusion and chaos,” Cornyn told reporters, per Politico. “And I’m sure I’m not the only one that would like some return to a little bit more of a…I don’t even know what’s normal anymore.”

We’ll call it the next normal,” he added. “It’s not the new normal, it’s the next normal.”

Are we possibly slowly moving toward a “have you no decency, sir?” moment here?

Nah…who am I kidding, it’s a momentary hiccup.

I don’t think anything has been normal since at least as far back as the Tet Offensive.

It’s possible he’s been in:

Normal, AL
Normal, IN
Normal, KY
Normal, TN
or maybe Normal, IL.

All regularly normal red states except the last.

Now the Senator does not know what is normal??

Welp, Here’s how I look at it (courtesy of John Lennon)…

Imagine there’s no heaven
It’s easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people living for today

Imagine there’s no countries
It isn’t hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people living life in peace, you

You may say I’m a dreamer
But I’m not the only one
I hope some day you’ll join us
And the world will be as one

Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people sharing all the world, you

You may say I’m a dreamer
But I’m not the only one
I hope some day you’ll join us
And the world will be as one
… … …
Now am sure trump would disagree but what the holy fuck does he know?

These GOP Senators are so impressive, letting go of the massive orange raft of fat to tread water for a few seconds, then returning. Such bravery! Such concern!

Cornyn is just babbling now. “The next normal?” It’s literally meaningless. At least he didn’t run away from the questioner.

That’s because Normal, IL is next to Oblong, IL.

Just saying…
