‘CNN of the Senate’ crosses line for Tucker: I’d rather live in a country run by Putin than by Sen Chris Murphy’
Biz Pack Review ^ | October 3, 2020 | Vivek Saxena

With President Donald Trump having been diagnosed with the coronavirus, it appears the Democrats’ Russian collusion narrative has returned again …

Responding to the president’s diagnosis Friday, Connecticut Sen. Chris Murphy claimed on CNN (a network known for its love of conspiracy theories) that the president’s temporary inability to campaign means he’ll have “to rely on his surrogates.”

And by “his surrogates,” Murphy of course meant Russian President Vladimir Putin, despite there not being a shred of evidence to back this long-touted conspiracy theory.

“If President Trump can’t be out there on the campaign trail for the next two weeks, then he is going to rely on his surrogates and, unfortunately, one of his surrogates is Vladimir Putin,” he said.

“So you are likely going to see this campaign ramped up by Russia over the next few weeks to try to substitute for the president’s absence on the campaign trail.”

Some of the backlash came from Fox News host Tucker Carlson, who was astonished that, while “the president … is in the hospital with a life-threatening illness … that buffoon [Murphy] is on television saying Vladimir Putin is one of his surrogates.”

He added, “Can I say, and I mean this, I would rather live in a country run by Putin than by Chris Murphy.”

It’s hard to tell which state’s residents elected the crappiest senators. CT, CA, or NY? I think the little state punches far above its weight in feculence.

Our senior senator (Bob Casey Jr.) is merely an empty suit who is a willing tool do do what ever his owners/handlers decide. The ones you mention are knowingly and willingly evil who need no handlers.

I am as anti-communist as the next guy, but you have to admit that Putin is competent at his job, which almost no one in DC outside of Trump, Pompeo and a couple of others in Trump's inner inner trusted inner circle are.

Putin would probably make an excellent President actually because I think he like Trump would focus on solving real problems. The one problem Putin would have is that here you cannot use those kinds of tools to take out the disloyal opposition who are more concerned about their own perqs and power than they are about the well-being of the State and the People.

What is astonishing is that these elite states in the NE with all their high-fallutin’ universities elect the dumbest people in the country to public office. But I agree, that CT is likely the winner of this sweepstakes. Stolen Valor and Murphy are a pretty tough team to match by any state.

Either way, it’s all the more reason for getting rid of the 17th Amendment.

Yes, the Nutmeg state has two of the Senate bottom dwellers in terms of ethics and morality...

I cannot fathom how these people can look into a camera and knowingly lie through their pearly white teeth...? But, they do it with such ease...

Connecticut voters keep sending them back to Washington...???

Joe Lieberman was always a camera hog, and was Liberal, but he always conducted himself well and you had the feeling he cared about the country...

These two CT Chuckleheads, Murphy & Blumenthal, are truly disgusting...

Meh. Putin and Chris Murphy are about the same. They’re both stinking communists.

I’d say to add Delaware, but the a$$holes ruining this place, but they only do what the bigger states tell them what to do.

Since I knew Spartacus was a Stanford Graduate, I just had to check. I don’t know why these things occur to my jaded brain, but the guy actually is a Rhodes Scholar, which means he is prime Grade-A certified servant of the global order material, checked, tested, bought, sold and compromised to ensure his loyalty. Rhodies are geniuses in doing exactly what their masters tell them to do, not a rebelous neuron in their bodies.

Delaware has the ill-tempered wife beater Tom Carper and the mental midget Chris Coons.
