Funny story re Gov McMaster

There was a thread about him ordering beaches and other places to open soon. He will do whatever trump tells him to.

Reminded me of when Henry ran against Fritz Hollings for his Senate seat. It was late 80s, when cocaine was everywhere, and some idiot GOP Senator said he thought some Dem Senators were doing coke on the Senate floor.
McMaster was trailing badly in the polls and desperately needed an issue, so he asked Hollings if he would take a drug test.
Fritz said, “Tell Henry that I’ll take a drug test and make it public if he’ll take an IQ test and publicize the results.”
McMaster lost badly.

We need to clone Willie Shakespeare

Maybe he could make sense of of this. Trump would certainly be one of his more insane characters.
Wonder if he would end it with Orange Julius falling to the ground and saying, “Et tu, Turtle?”

Please, Speaker Pelosi, put your foot down

No further discussion of more stimulus funds until trump and the GOP Senate agree to a permanent and real Inspector General to oversee the expenditure of funds. Right now trump can move the current $2.2 trillion around as he sees fit. It may end up helping golf courses and building a wall on the border. We know we do not have a SCOTUS who will step in to stop the abuse.

Tell them this is the essential first step before we trust trump again. His competence and his honesty are no longer in question -- he has proven that neither of those qualities exist in any form.
