Memo to Ohio Governor Squish DeWine: though you despise any Republican who is to the right of Mitt Romney or Chris Christie, your job is to appoint Jim Jordan to the Senate to replace Vance (if a replacement is required).
As far as Jordan being “too important” in the House leadership to spare him from that role — bullshit.
As the token conservative among the RINO House leaders, Jordan is about as useful there as tits on a bull. He’d make a great Senator unless he’s so used to getting his marching orders from RINOs that he becomes a Mitch Bitch. I don’t think he’d do that; Vance didn’t.
I disagree about Jordan, and here’s why: he has been in position as committee chair on the Govt Weaponization Committee (or whatever it’s called) to get legal evidence to make criminal referrals of Deep State actors once Trump’s AG takes control of the DOJ. And if we’re going to get rid of the Deep State we need a means through which to do it.
There must be somebody else in Ohio who would be good. And DeWine needs to be shown that this is NOT a good time to rub the base’s noses in GOPe slime.
