A glimmer of hope?

The Republican Senators chose Sen. John Thune to become the next Majority Leader. Considering how the populist coterie around Trump vocally supported Rick Scott, this is a good sign indicating that the majority of Senate Republicans still adheres to traditional conservative policy positions.

Trump is trying to grab Rubio and Gaetz for his administration too. A lot of very Florida-centric behavior out of him.

@ViciDraco I just think it would be funny if the news started every news headline with "Florida man _______________" when it has Trump in the article.

@ViciDraco I‘m not terribly enthusiastic about any of his picks. Ruling out Pompeo and Haley was very disappointing.

@CedricH Gaetz was just given a perfect excuse to dodge the ethics commission review coming up. So that's... something.

@ViciDraco They really can only pull members of congress from states with Republican governors Their replacements will be appointed by the governors until the next election. So Florida is safe, with the added benefit of more than a handful that would be competent and good choices for federal positions.
