Is senator john kennedy from louisiana as stupid as he appears? I'll go with yes.

[spanone]

he's concerned.

concerned about the allegations about Joe Biden and his son.

he doesn't want to talk about giuliani, but he'll joke about him.

he's currently on morning joe. msnbc

1. His veneer of folksiness masks one of the most vile partisans in the Senate. nt

[spanone]

2. yep, plays the rube.

15. I was thinking that he was trying too hard to come across like a

local yokel. He must be very concerned.

[shraby]

3. Definitely missing some rungs on his ladder.

[BeyondGeography]

4. Gotta give Todd credit (and I don't expect to be doing that again)

But Kennedy has a “when you realize you’re selling shit-on-a-stick” moment during this back-and-forth yesterday:

6. I watched that yesterday.... pissed me off.

[Mandeville]

5. I'm from LA

Kennedy will do whatever it takes to be in the spotlight. He will even change parties...He once was a Dem. He thinks that it is charming if he acts like an intelligent country bumpkin.

[spanone]

7. he's also a royal smartass....

welcome to DU

[IphengeniaBlumgarten]

12. He graduated from Vanderbilt magna cum laude...

so this is an act. He is one of the senators who visited Russia on the 4th of July a couple of years ago, so maybe he is compromised, too?

16. +1

[Celerity]

8. he is Cletus the Slack-jawed Yokel, but with a Klan robe in the closet of his shack

[tetedur]

9. No one can be that stupid. He's made the calculation to side with Trump and Russia.

And of course, MSNBC is going to let him spew this stupidity on the air. Why? They know what he said yesterday. The audience has to suffer through this drivel instead of getting someone to speak serious, adult analysis.

July 4th 2018 he went to Russia with 7 other Republican senators. Are Mika and Joe going to ask him about that little trip? I think we ought to look into it. I'm not saying he did anything illegal. There should be an investigation.

10. IMO Yes. He's right there with Mike Lee, Louie Gohmert, Gaetz, Jordan, Doug Collins

perched on the low IQ ladder, on the same wrung as my home-grown incompetent congressman Paul Gosar.

[bigbrother05]

11. He has played up his folksy, but pithy comments in the past

His sound bites have usually sounded somewhat reasonable. He's often seemed mildly critical of the administration and the more rabid members of the GOP.

Think MSNBC invited him on with Chuck Todd to get some similar snippets yesterday and he came out as a rabid partisan.

I was stunned that someone had stolen Chuck's face and was pushing back and essentially made Kennedy choke on his pile of BS.

First time I've ever felt the slightest respect for Chuck, especially when he said that LA & TX were no strangers to corrupt politics.

13. Yes, Senator Kennedy is that dumb

[TruckFump]

14. What a travesty for this man to...

...have the last name Kennedy.
