Hersch has said he doesn’t even remember his “football years.” Yeah, he was hit in the head, much more than any brain can handle.

As to voting I checked the MO state website to see what’s new, and photo ID is a new requirement. But while I was there I also was checking the boundaries of the districts for state rep and senator. I’m trying to figure out how a person running for either position can have their district span two different board of elections. There’s St. Louis City and St. Louis County.
And I talked about St. Louis County’s new machines several days ago. If you’re a county resident you can go to any polling place in the county to vote. When you check in it will print your paper ballot with the races and props that are pertinent to your address.
I’m not sure that the St. Louis City board of elections has the same system.

Call me skeptical that he “had” or still has a mental illness, instead of making up alternate personality bullshit to deflect blame for what he’s done in the past.

He probably does suffer from CTE, but I think most of the bizarre things we hear from him are just because he’s not very bright to begin with. Dumb people believe dumb things. That’s the main reason why he’s so dangerous. As a Senator he would be a tool manipulated by others.

So, Crenshaw learned part of Donnie’s lesson.
What he apparently missed was putting his logo on every product.

Enchiladas with alfredo sauce are like rigatoni with tabasco sauce. Interesting combinations… No problemo, RVH…

The Furries/Litter Box conspiracy/moral panic has reached down under!

This is a deeply unserious planet. No wonder the Aliens keep their distance.

Screw it. I’m going out for a triple espresso coffee and a sugary scone that contains at least 1000 Kcal. Later. YOLO!

Come to think of it, how many of our senators (and Representatives) are currently tools, manipulated by others? Sometimes, those “others” are their staff people, the only ones that even know how the government, and laws, work. In other words, we have quite a few congressmen/congresswomen who are/might be labeled dumb, or incompetent. Senility has always been a problem in federal government and law, IMO.

ETA: There is plenty of evidence that Traumatic Brain Injuries, like CTE, can cause personality disorders and other mental illnesses. Same with trauma.

I was thinking along the same lines. But consider if Walker gets elected that’s just another body Mitch has to deal with.
I realized that staff do most of the heavy lifting, but who wants it on their resume that they had to babysit Walker for 6 years? Maybe we start the list of Republican senators that has to have their staff babysit them?
