Wednesday … the next (and HUGE) test
Thune vs Cornyn vs Scott …. read all about em
“My fear is that a win by Cornyn or Thune will kill any chance for some of the systemic change we need in governance, like, for instance, getting away from omnibus appropriation bills and mindlessly increasing agency budgets if we are to survive. I don’t see either of them getting on board with immigration reform or onshoring American manufacturing capacity.
Trump may only have two years to deliver on his promises, and a Senate majority leader who hasn’t bought into Trump’s goals will stop this great opportunity dead in its tracks.”
At this point populating the Trump administration with rock ribbed populists is the priority. I hope Rick Scott gives Thune a bit of a scare so that he has to make some promises to gain the job, but it’s likely is fruitless. Politics, as they say, is the art of the possible. Trumps main task is to shut down the deep state, arresting and jailing many. With the economy going over a cliff, Trump will have some dark days.
