Senator Batboy
Remember last February when the Chairman of the Republican Senate Campaign Committee, Rick Scott, released an official Republican Senate Campaign 11-point platform so odious that even amply be-chinned Mitch McConnell took him to the public whipping post? You know, the plan that would sunset Social Security, Medicare, limit or end overseas voting (Support The Troops!) and impose a poor tax on half of America, you know, so that they would have “skin in the game?”
You don’t say those parts out loud, Sen. Batboy!
Now it seems he didn’t write it, it’s Democrat talking points, so the Dems wrote it! Who knew?!
It’s important to note that Batboy’s 11-point plan is on the senator’s website, right now, this very moment.
Scott insists that no sane lawmaker would be willing to let Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security expire, and that instead his proposal would be forcing the conversation about how to pay for them, which as we know from the Build Back Better demise is a piece of cake, amirite? I’m sure the Violence Against Women Act could talk to SS and Medicare about popular bills left to die while Republicans wage culture wars, you know, if VAWA could talk what with being sunsetted (is too a vurb!) since 2019 until only recently revived.
Anyway, as far as master criminal big evil plans go, Rick Scott 2024 Goat Rodeo Contender sure is a dope.
Heh. Must have been his idea or else he’d be blaming one of his minions.

He’ll still get reelected. It’s Florida.

I see Mr. Bat Boy didn’t stop to think about his big idea much, if at all. Our Congress and Senate have one heck of a time getting around to passing new laws. Where exactly are they going to find the time to repass existing laws and do current business?
This guy is nuts.

This is the point…it’s “I’m tired of waiting for it to get small enough to drown, lets just kill it now” stategery.
Fine strategery by a Senator from God’s Waiting Room. Sure, lets kill Social Security ad Medicare! Make those old farts pay more in taxes!

Not all Floridans are eating Tide Pods and faces, so that sign should read “It’s not just the hate, it’s the stupidity.”

I had an acquaintance whose catchphrase was “I didn’t do it nobody saw me you can’t prove a thing” The current GQP version appears to be “I didn’t do it everybody saw me you can prove everything”. But the part that’s REALLY STUPID is that it seems to work for them.
