Florida’s junior Senator was greeted by people chanting his name at the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee, where U.S. Sen. Rick Scott offered an aggressively pro-Donald Trump speech.
“Well, the Democrats couldn’t stop him. The media couldn’t stop him. The liberal Judges couldn’t stop him. A bullet couldn’t stop him. Can anything stop Donald Trump from becoming the next President and making America great again,” Scott asked rhetorically, eliciting a loud “no” response from the crowd.
Scott noted he knew Trump before either entered politics, and that Trump should be in the White House “every day going forward,” before telling his own autobiography as an example of the American Dream fulfilled.
As a USA chant broke out, Scott said “we will win,” before describing a “dream” of “time-traveling” into a world where Joe Biden got re-elected.
He got to see “the ghost of Biden’s future,” and realized it was no dream, but a “nightmare,” where “Mexican cartels got frequent flyer miles” and elections were “rigged because they got so many non-citizens to vote.”
Scott condemned the “old, evil idea” of “socialism” embodied by Democrats, promising that no such thing would happen under Trump.
He lauded Trump for showing “courage” after he was shot, urging those on hand to “fight, fight, fight” and “make sure Trump gets re-elected.”

Medicare is socialism, so I guess Scott made lemonade out of lemons.

Florida’s junior Senator was greeted by people chanting his name Tuesday night…
Chanting Rick’s name?
Sorry, kids, it’s worse than we thought.

I liked the big guy with his dog. He claims he’s never said anything dishonest. So why is he sharing a stage with Trump?

Can anything stop Dandy Don from being elected, Rick? Yes. A few million women can in all the swing states. You know, all the ones JD Vance called “childless cat ladies.”

“The Lever” blog reports today that Vance supports giving law enforcement the tools and the license to track down women who leave red states and go to blue states to terminate a pregnancy. (Presumably the enablers will be subject to prosecution.)

Is that what Joy Behar and Whoopi told you on The View?

You show a striking familiarity with daytime women’s TV.
That aside, why don’t you respond to the comment and repeat how you support women?
And you never miss an opportunity to demean women of color.

howler monkey, yeah, joy behar and whoopi could teach you a lot, if you had the ability to listen. you do listen, but to negativity, not positivity. like a misplaced magnet, you need to flip your poles around.

What kind of person is actually fooled by Sick Rott?

Well how about enough people that made him a two term Governor of Florida. Enough that elected him to his second term as. a US Senator. That’s twenty four years of service. He might even run for a third US senate term.

They weren’t fooled. They willingly voted for a scoundrel because he had an R next to his name. It’s a numbers issue, just like it was when he ran HCA.

Just like District 25 in the People’s Republic of Broward County. Those busses from Century Village, Kings Point, Sunrise Lakes and such are looking for two things on the ballot.

2 terms governor = 8
1 term Senate = 6
Total = 14, not 24
Trick has yet to win office by a large margin and can be beat in Nov.

Great speech by our outstanding Governor this evening. Rocking the house in prime time. So much young talent in the Republican Party.

Hopefully the Iranians get a hold of Trump over Qasem Soleimani and afterwards we can really move forward in unity. The kid blew it in Pennsylvania. Now we have to endure Orange Hilter until his other court cases happen.

If Trump gets elected he will handle the Iranians. You see some people / countries only understand toughness. The bad guys love sleepy Joe. They come out after 8 pm and invade, bomb, destroy, and rape. They are done before Joe crawls out of bed. Remember the MOAB that Trump delivered to the mountains of Afghanistan? Not a
peep out of the terrorists for four years. Now we have terrorists gone wild under the regime of Sleepy Joe.

Maybe invading Iraq and destabilizing the entire middle east wasn’t such a great Republican idea after all. But hey, Trump can send the Ayatollah to nirvana and keep the ball rolling.

You’ll get no argument from me on Iraq or Afghanistan. I was in complete favor of destroying their terrorist infrastructure. That’s it.

The Mother Of All (non-nuclear) Bombs was dropped in 2017. In 2020 Trump signed a peace treaty with the Taliban: The United States was to get out of Afghanistan in April 2021 and, in exchange, the Taliban agreed to stop attacking U.S. service members.
BTW: The Taliban kept their part of the deal.

not woke, what about the next 20 year old untrained punk with an ar-15. moab can’t stop that. trump is weak, not tough. tough or strong people don’t lie with every word.

I’m shocked your comment got through. I wondered if the entirely self-absorbed Donald might take a near death experience and ponder acting presidential instead always playing drunk uncle at the barbque. No such luck. Most would sober up, he will not.
The question is if he gets elected, can E Jean Carroll garnish his wages as president?

He most certainly did draw a salary. It’s required by law.
He claims to have donated it. But it’s unclear. His 2020 tax return, for example, shows no charitable donations.

Trump’s last charitable purchase was a full-length painted portrait of himself.
