6. Tuberville is no fool

He's a grifter. And you can't be good at the grift without being able to size up your marks and go for their weak spots. With Alabama, those weak spots are bathed in neon with sirens attached.

It's no surprise Alabamians have picked what was the second-worst candidate in the race as their GOP frontrunner. This is the bunch that nearly put Roy Moore in that office a couple of years ago and only missed by a razor-thin margin. And that's after he was exposed for lusting after tender-aged gals in the local mall.

Tuberville's shady past is no secret. It's followed him for decades, from school to school, job to job, and landed him in legal trouble. Alabamians have moved past the kiddy-diddler to the exposed con artist who avoided prosecution for financial fraud by turning evidence against his partner.

Little wonder then that the big orange grifter in the Oval Office gave Tubs his seal of approval. Birds of a feather, you know.
