Here’s to Rick Scott!! I hope DJT is of the same mindset (along with the majority of the senate to vote him in)

We can do better than Thune and Cornyn.

Don’t know much about Scott.

Not a big fan of any of those 3 but I think Scott would be the choice who could move the Trump agenda forward.

Does anyone else think that that headline makes no sense? It is the exact headline, though.

it’s obvious to me that the two best senators available now in the senate are Haggerty and Blackburn from TN.

A race between three RINOs...The Great Compromise is the only substantial flaw in the Constitution. Our Founders thought senators would represent their perspective states rather than a political party. Sad.

The last thing we need is the turtle’s brand of traditional republican politics.

Cornyn is the worst of the three. He is a total lump of shit. As liberal as Lisa Murkowski and Susan Collins. Cornyn will actively work to thwart the MAGA agenda.

John Thune is only a little bit better. Perhaps a smaller piece of diarrhea compared to the Texas four flusher Cornholio.

Scott is not a flaming MAGA member but would be as good as you could get in the Senate.

The Turtle is probably pushing John Cornyn. Of the three, Scott is probably the lessor of the evils.

Everyone needs to get something firmly in their heads.

The very first significant item upcoming for any Senate Majority Leader chosen will be to completely cave, as we will call it, and raise the debt ceiling.

The Democrats would be wise to filibuster it and insist on huge agenda items . . . and the GOP will cave and give it to them.

Because the Democrats won’t be blamed and the GOP is not conservative.

Only Trump can stop this. Just refuse to sign anything that doesn’t restore the ceiling (it’s currently suspended) at exactly its current level.

Zero increase in debt. This would be the greatest heroism we could ever see.
