He was an @$$hat before he ever assumed a leadership position.

This disaster was entirely forseeable.

His next pronouncements should come from him seated in a recliner chair, with an adult beverage on the left and Cheetos and Fritos on the right, and a 4HD TV in front with a football game on.
“Pass, you idiot-—uh, if that’s not too impolite to the other team. Maybe just hold the ball. Run out the clock and go for the tie.” 🍺🏈

Someone said Thune could demand 12 hours days each day until the end of the Senate terms, working with the House to get bills passed with a no filibuster rule, with Save America at the top of the agenda.

Looks like that’s too much work.

Ha. Reaching across the aisle and giving up to the Dems. Why didn’t anyone think of that before, except for McCain and a long line of others.

And, if Thune is leader, willing to be a doormat for the Democrats.

“..Why didn’t this jackass Thune work with a REPUBLICAN PRESIDENT ???...”

Because he’s nothing but a stinking RAT in RINO clothing, that’s why....a lying, useless, gutless POS.

A lot like what Robert Ringer said about the futility of defending your rights in court. He recalled losing a case and a lot of money plus lawyer fees and billable hours for the staff.
At the back of the courtroom he saw his lawyer and the opposition smiling and joking and shaking hands. Why? Your case is very important to YOU but not to anyone else. They have to face the judges and others again and again in the future in case after case and they don’t want to get on the bad side of the judges or the opposition and make life Hell for themselves later on. So they get along and ask about the kids and guy’s new boat.
