4. and then he starts ranting about welfare work waivers

he starts the usual GOP rant about Obama waiving the work requirements.

Chuck Todd keeps trying interrupting and saying, "but it doesn't.. no it doesn't... turns rights over to the states....." and the governor just keeps ranting. They are just delusional.

Such stupidity.

collects a 150,000 a year pension from when he was last governor 16 years ago as well as his current salary. He is a POS extraordinaire just like every other rethugilcan. When they need Fed money they belly up to the troff and suck it down.
