Maybe not egotistical, but I think he, along with Trump are both strong leaders who want to be in charge.
I haven’t seen proof that he has hooked up with those guys. They are putting his name out there to cause division, and it looks like it’s working. Why would Ryan and Co. Want RDS as President? I’ve observed him be more rude and curt to people than President Trump, and his policies are the same as Trump.
Kari Lake would be awesome, after she was AZ Gov for a few years. She really has no political experience (which actually would be a good thing), but she also hasn't run a business or had a career other than journalist, has she? I'm not saying that is disqualifying, but I think the lack of experience could be used against her.
You nailed it, Girl!
Right on the money!
Just got back from P.T.
and groceries-BOTH were painful!
*Fanfare please*
My therapist is very pleased, and wants me to practice
walking short distances without crutches or my cane!
I think I gonna graduate to total freedom very soon!
A little story to share:
After PT I waited for hubby to finish up shopping.
I was really smarting after this P.T. session. and wondering if I can really stand to do that anymore...
In the door pocket of the car. are little packages of Kleenex that I put there just in case( LOL)
They have little sayings printed on top.
The one I grabbed said “Summon your strength”
Funny, that....
I’m not exactly sure how it works from here on out until they have the floor vote in January, but- “electioneering” may be taking place in formerly smokey dim lit rooms across Wash., DC.?
I know that at the local level, public business CANNOT be conducted outside of formal meetings, and elected officials are prohibited from gathering in groups larger than 3 individuals at a time, in public and or private settings, specifically with regard to the discussion of the people’s business.
(I’m not sure about limitations in how many elected officials can gather in private, but I am certain that the affairs of the people that they represent are not to be discussed.)
Just be very careful on your fledgling flight with no cane.
NO MORE FALL!! You hear me?
Other than that, GREAT news.
Proud of you, girl!
Sure hope the 31 hold his feet to the fire.
Me, too, Gran.

A) GOP FL Sen Rick Scott: in bid for ldr against McConnell: We must start saying what we are for, not just what we are against. I do not believe we can simply continue to say the Democrats are radical, which they are.
B) Scott: Republican voters expect and deserve to know our plan to promote and advance conservative values....That is why I am running to be Republican Leader
C) Scott: Like each of you, I am deeply disappointed by the results of the recent election. Despite what the armchair quarterbacks on TV will tell you, there is no one person responsible for our party’s performance across the country.
D) Scott: I know there is no shortage of people who are eager to point fingers and assign blame here in Washington, but I won’t be one of them. It’s unproductive and a massive waste of time.
E) Scott: We know that chief among our problems in races across America was a lack of Republican voter turnout..Iunderstand that I won’t gain the support of every member of our Conference..If you simply want to stick with the status quo, don’t vote for me.

This is where we are:
Democrat Party is a totally Left Party.
Republicans are divided between Traditional (Bush/McCain/NeoCon) Republicans and MAGA Republicans.
Traditional Republicans will align with the Left to defeat MAGA and keep power in the Party.— Dr. Andrew Jackson (@DrAndrewJackson) November 15, 2022

Biden wants more money, $37.7 billion, for Ukraine but still refuses to do anything for America’s border.
Biden is the best business partner the Cartels have ever had and doing an excellent job as VP under President Zelensky.
I disagree with Sen. Rick Scott on the lack of pubbie turn out to vote.
6 million more pubbies voted on election day than dims.
What pubbies failed to do is ballot harvest or overwhelm with mail in ballots which the dims have perfected.
We either get into that business or continue to lose.
“NO MORE FALL!! You hear me?”
Yes ma’am!
Loud and clear!
“Proud of you, girl!”
Thank ya kindly!

When I was just a casual observer of US politics, from England, I used to hear the name “Lindsey Graham” and think it was some silly Republican girl on Capitol Hill. Then I moved to Capitol Hill and found out I was right.
