How many senators voting for markwayne to get someone that unpleasant and dumb out of their work environment

This is how James Clark McReynolds wound up on the Supreme Court.

He had been Wilson's AG, but was such an unmitigated asshole that Wilson was dying to be rid of him.

As a result, America got AG A. Mitchell Palmer and the first Red Scare, while McReynolds led the anti-New Deal coalition on SCOTUS

GOP filtering. The suggestion yesterday by a prominent conservative publication that Vance file 25A and pledge not to run again and appoint a Democrat as VP to moderate things is a tell too. We are off the reservation.

He has surely proved his loyalty and stupidity. Not that there isn’t plenty of that to go around.
