of course when that Kennedy-connected woman in NY had the same thing happen, all the principled and consistent lefty kooks had the same tear-soaked, bitter AF reaction, right?
These are the very moments where the real Republicans have opportunities to step up, say no, & work toward taking back their party by shutting these imposters out. They could seize this moment, if they act on it wisely.
“Welcome to the anti-meritocratic world, this world. What are you going to do about it? Will you stand back and watch while cronyism, nepotism,...destroy merit so that their chosen ones can prosper at your expense. It’s time to smash the conspiracy."
This is the road to replacing the Republic with a Principate. The Senate can have only one master. They either represent the interests of their state, or an emperor.
The “ measured” GOP leaders of the past have succumbed to the cult. Pretending John Thune or Barraso or Cornyn have any backbone anymore shows the complete capitulation to T.
What are you referring to - the description of the current situation on the Hill? You can be past it all you want but until you win seats in those states this will be the way it is. Useful? It’s a description of what is currently happening there. Have a great day—
Of course she will...... I mean, the nepotism train already left the station, but there are still empty seats to be filled at each stop....“Nepotism sometimes can be a lose-lose situation.”

Aww. How heartwarming. Her first real job. And I'm sure she earned it the hard way, you know, by marrying a rich cokehead and sucking up to her father in law.
Is there a law against Senators trying to be recording artists? I hope so.
This is why Pete Hegseth will not be SECDEF. It is a quid pro quo. DeSantis gives the Senate seat to Lara; Trump gives the SECDEF to DeSantis.
See how easy that works?
The House was dumbed down already now they want Senate? They really do want to destroy the Federal Govt for their own selfish reasons while using rest of us a pawns to finance their ascension to power…just to save a fee $ on gas & groceries?
The two people closest to Eric Trump are a Moscow-born thug, arrested three times in Arizona (twice for drunkenly attacking people at bars) including the False Elector Scheme of the 2020 election, who was amazingly Eric's college buddy, and LARA. Look at her. Russian plant, just like Boris Epshtyn.
How low can the USA go, I’m serious! This is ridiculous! The senate used to be the cooling saucer for thoughtful and rigorous debate! It’s quickly becoming a congressional dumpster-fire.
I'd be SHOCKED if these things don't happen in this order:
1. Rubio gets Sen. approval for Cabinet appointment;
2. De Santis approves L. Trump as Rubio replacement;
3. 45 appoints De Santis as another agency advisor.
"Consider" is an odd way of describing a quid-pro-quo. Rubio will be confirmed by a Republican Senate, DeSantis appoints Lara and becomes Defense Secretary.
From the Canadian empire, i thought you had to be elected to be senator but it seems it's not the case. Singing like the famous "Bianca Castafiore" seems to be enough.
Nooo!
I know what everyone is thinking and the RNC still has several thousand dollars left on the books which has not been stolen! They are not bankrupt!
Lara is just leaving for a 'better opportunity'.
Hahahahahahaha!
Totally unqualified and probably assured to be a senator within a few weeks.

Lara Trump has failed upwards far too much.

Between her and Tommy Rubberville they couldn’t pass a 2nd grade math test.
and no one is getting linen kakis either.
What a freaking nightmare!!!
The SWAMP is growing by the seconds.
The alligators from the Florida swamps are taking over!!!
Quid Pro Quo? Trump offers DeSantis SECDEF but must agree to appointing his daughter in law as Senator?

I definitely see quid pro quo coming into play.

Yeah Right.

She’s just “shopping” for a seat at this point.
That should tell you all you need to know. Lara Trump is just a “Carpet Bagger”…
Little Ronnie will appoint her to fill the vacancy..and he will be rewarded with secretary of defense 🥸
Her only accomplishment is attempting to divert all of the GOP raised election funds to Trump's use!
The RNC is close to bankrupt. She needs the next wale. Maybe @WH withheld admin of TFG?

They should be required to take a civics test.
😑🧐
What a waste of tax payer dollars. Maybe DOGE can clean up this vacuous waste?
What's in it for Ronnie D? $$$$$ when the next disaster hits.
