Why the hell is Grassley running again?

He' 88 years old, not particularly mentally sound and probably as wealthy as he'll ever be.
So I think it's because he thinks he'll win and then he can retire. Then covid kimmy can appoint his grandson as his successor. Either that or she will appoint herself. So I say, let's get out there and work our assrs off for Abby Finkenauer to beat the fossil.
By the way, I have nothing against elderly people. My mom is 88 and doing all right. But there is no way she could be a Senator now and she admits it.

He is running so he can then resign for health reasons after a short time.

Covid Kimmy Reynolds will then appoint his son so that the grift can stay in the family as his son will be the incumbent in the election to replace the old man.

There are several people in the running for the Democratic nomination for U.S. Senate in Iowa. Most of them are a more appealing candidate than Finkenauer. Finkenauer looks to be one more uninspiring candidate put forth by the Iowa Democratic Party. She couldn’t even get re-elected to the house with the power of incumbency, why would we think she can win a senate race?

I hate to think how much money and effort I have wasted supporting bland Democratic candidates for senate.

From the very pukes who slam Chicago - SCOTUS Kennedy steps down for a cushy job for his kid now Grassley. Kim Covid should be in jail for misappropriating funds. Time to get out the vote and ensure the vote can stand in line for however long it takes to vote.
