Democrat Sen. Chris Van Hollen went to El Salvador to visit alleged gang member Kilmar Abrego Garcia. Van Hollen was photographed sitting with Abrego Garcia at a table that had what appeared to be some margaritas. Van Hollen is now backtracking and claiming that it was all a set up by El Salvador president Nayib Bukele.

You had the choice not to go, and then you had the choice to say no when you got there. What occurred is all your own doing.

I never thought anybody would top the John Prine song, Yes I Guess They Oughta Name a Drink After You, but this bozo comes pretty close (for totally different reasons, of course - Prine had talent).

Okay, Chris. We are done playing your game.
Quick! Somebody dust those drinking Goblets for fingerprints!
Do not send them through the dishwasher as the Senator has (frantically) requested.

I’m starting to really respect President Bukele. Not only did he mercilessly prosecute criminal gangs, but his troll game is up there with the best. Margaritas, complete with salted rims! I’m guessing there were no limes handy, so they substituted cherries.

At the same time, he showed that Garcia was healthy, smiling and had not a single mark visible on him.

Garcia is a citizen of El Salvador, and any pleas for Justice must be to the Salvadoran justice system. The US has no jurisdiction in his case. If Judge Boasberg wishes to charge the DOJ for breaking Garcia’s protection order, he can try. And Trump can pardon. But Garcia is a Salvadoran in El Salvador, where he belongs.

The thing about this set up is that if the senator had any decency it would have alerted on sight. But it did not. Why could the senator not see what was plainly in front of him?

Seeing El Salvador president Bukele hand Kaitlin Collins her ass was satisfying

Van Hollen isn’t upset that he was photographed sitting with a drug-trafficking wife beater that he’s trying to portray as a devoted family man, he’s upset that he was photographed with a glass of water posing as a margarita.

Someone mentioned the master trolling by Bukele with the Chiefs 57 Superbowl hat. I don’t get the implication. Help?

This completely destroyed his hopes of the Presidency.

The silver lining. I knew it was there!
