The GOP slapped back at #fElon, rejecting #MAGA #RickScott and so John #Thune will be the #GOP Daddy for now.
I'd bet the farm there is no way this would have happened but for the secret ballot.

hune, 63, has had a complicated relationship with the president-elect. He called for Trump to drop out of the 2016 race in the wake of the infamous “Access Hollywood” scandal – though Thune later said he still planned to vote for Trump. And he condemned Trump’s actions surrounding the January 6, 2021, Capitol riot as indefensible. Still, when Trump faced a vote in the Senate following his impeachment over the incident, Thune sided with McConnell and most of the Republican caucus in voting “not guilty.”
Trump didn’t forget the slight, calling for South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem to mount a primary challenge against Thune in 2022, though she demurred. Thune overwhelmingly won the primary that year and cruised to victory

“Sen. Rick Scott (R-FL) may be the MAGA media darling, but some of his colleagues are bristling at the public pressure on their secret voting process to elect Mitch McConnell’s Senate Republican leader successor on Wednesday,” Axios reports.
“Senate GOP sources tell us Scott’s weekend momentum — especially without an endorsement from President-elect Trump — is starting to backfire.”
Florida was already dead to me. Now it’s still dead to me. Enjoy Rick Scott, one of the greatest crooks in US history.

As #Montana trends red, the #Senate #Democrats’ campaign arm announced late last month it was making a multimillion-dollar investment in advertising in #Florida & #Texas, both Republican-leaning states w/ #GOP incumbents up for reelection.
Sen #TedCruz, who survived a closer-than-expected challenge from Dem Beto O’Rourke in 2018, has faltered in some polls against Dem Rep #ColinAllred, a fmr football player. And Sen #RickScott holds a narrow lead over fmr Democratic Rep #DebbieMucarselPowell.
Here's a radical proposition:
IF you vote against funding FEMA, your state or district should not be eligible for funds when tragedy hits.
What say ye?
#TedCruz, #RickScott, and #MarshaBlackburn voted to defund FEMA, but now they want FEMA help
