I’m going to egg on his ego and then hope like hell that ego disappears in 12 months when he’s most likely to get attention for spouting off at the mouth.

That picture does not create the image of robustness in the former occupant. Yet they want to run him maybe in 2024. Lotsa luck there.

“Scott’s remarks come a month after he awarded Trump with the National Republican Senatorial Committee’s first-ever ‘Champion for Freedom Award’…”

Up next, Kevin McCarthy presents Trump with the House GOP Caucus’ first-ever “Tasty Taint Award”.

“Here’s a pretend award Mr. Trump we created just to soothe your ego. Please shut up until the Senate primaries are over so your white supremacist worshippers don’t load us down with unelectable idiots for the Senate races, and please don’t attack people like Murkowski who are going win. Thanks.”

I’m Asian-American (my ILs are distantly related to Kamala’s mom) and no one sent me the memo.

Its the glare from Scott’s gleaming head. It blinds you to the actual image. Eye protection should be worn at all times around him. He is supposedly a fire hazard as well, redirecting and concentrating the sun’s rays and inadvertently causing nearby objects to combust.

Rick Scott is the consummate corrupt asshole.

Before he ripped off major bucks from Medicare or became a Governor or Senator, Rick Scott scraped by on the earnings he made as a model for butt plug sculptors.

I was going to point out the same thing. Either this a Trump double, or the double was who we saw in the WH during the last 4 years.

So listening to All Things Considered today they were discussing satanic panic returns with QAnon. So the program was looking at the pre-school child abuse and satanic rituals that all the rage in the 80’s. There was good description of what may have led to these accusations. But what caught my ear was the title of one the experts interviewed, Eleanor Janega. She’s a medieval scholar and specializes in apocalyptic thought in the late medieval period.
So I know the field of medieval studies is small, but then to have an area of interest in apocalyptic thought? I’m not dismissing her or her studies, but it seems to me that apocalyptic thought has probably been a human thing since man invented some kind religious beliefs. And too simplify my thought process I’ll steal this from Bye, Bye Birdie,

though we’re dealing with adults and we’re in the 21st century, what’s the matter with us?
