LONDONDERRY, New Hampshire — Sitting cross-legged in front of a rifle display case and dressed for fall in New England with a green fleece vest, Tom Cotton was waiting his turn to speak.

The 43-year-old Republican senator from Arkansas has long been mentioned as a future presidential contender, and here he was, testing the waters in the first-in-the-nation primary state.

Cotton has grown louder on the national political stage in recent years.

He has become omnipresent on Fox News, embraced his own genre of trolling on Twitter, and demonstrated an attunement to online culture wars and an ability to capitalize on them with his controversial New York Times op-ed article that led to the resignation of the paper's editorial-page editor.

Exactly my thought. If this really ends up getting stolen from Trump.. Don Jr will avenge the father.

Good.

When Trump wins AZ, GA, NC and PA and rules again for four years, Cotton can keep preparing and watching the master to learn.

I just don’t trust the dude somehow.

But he would probably do better with a Reagan/Trump-style, old-fashioned boxy suit than that tightly tailored one. Anything to downplay the freaky distance from his head to his shoulders.

Never mind, I misread. I read “Not his time”.

Sr.

Why not pull a Grover Cleveland (non consecutive 2nd term)?

I like him, but he is not in my top tier. The Senate is not really the place to audition for President. I would say he should run for Governor first, but Sarah is going to take that spot.

I will say one of my favorite things about him is that he is not a squish. He speaks very clearly and is direct. Not sure where he lands on the charisma chart, but I am a fan.

Just make a great Senator Tom, that’s all we’re asking for at the moment.

It would be nice if he gets out there to fight voter frauds and putting a Voter ID Bill. Even if Trump loses, he can sign the bill on his way to the door.

He should be spending his time defending the president and fighting the forces who are stealing the election.

The hell with 2024!

He might make a good running mate for Don Jr. We’ll see.

It’s possible. He will only be 78, with more energy than the entire GOP primary lineup put together.

You expect the Democrats to not kill him or toss him in jail once he’s out of the office?

You have more faith in those filth then I ever could.
