Republicans are going to lose their asses and so out comes stuff like this from their friends the Dems, who much prefer their meaner, older big brother stay in power doing the dirty work.

Ossoff, Talerico, and Cooper.... Why not just name Sherrod Brown or Mark Kelly, while he is at it?

Establishment, Establishment, Establishment - supply side economics, cruelty, Ayn Rand........something....something...

His whole policy stance, described as "market friendly" nibbles around the edges while leaving the corporate raiding of the middle class, racism, sexism, and hate in place. Baby bonds? Seriously? And for the childless seniors eating cat food? Pfft!

No. Hell no.
