Holy shit, from the :50 mark (or so) onward, that guy looked like a dog that had been shown a card trick.

I laughed so hard at that description after seeing the video.

That is possibly the stupidest respons e I have ever seen, and given the last two years, that’s a high bar.

That CNN clip was gold.
I guess he did not know that.

Which is rule number one about being against something: Know at least some facts about what you are against.

This particular race wasn’t about anything more than a partisan vote in the senate. Jones will vote straight down party lines, yes for any D bills and no for any R bills (or anything that Trump is in favor of). He will contribute nothing else for the remainder of his term.
It’s ironic how it was won in the same manner that the presidential election was won last year. In this case it was the Rs that nominated the worst possible candidate, didn’t get enough of their voter base to actually vote, lost some “guaranteed” votes due to the candidate, had some last minute “dirt” surface, while at the same time letting the Ds get their base fired up enough to actually go vote more.
Give it a few days for this to die down, and the rest of the country can go back to not giving a shit about Alabamians. Except when needing to make a cousin-kissin’ redneck joke, of course.

A super quick look at the Census data from 2015 shows 24M black women in the country. Of that something like 5.9M is under voting age, so you get 18.1M eligible voters +/- other factors. So, with everything that has come out of this administration I don’t think there is much hope of them getting much of that vote in the next few years. So, it will be horrifying / interesting to see what kind of efforts the Republicans will roll out to negate that voter block.

The GOP has been working for a long time to suppress low-income, minority and student votes in the name of “preventing voter fraud.”

I think next year is going to get crazy.
