He is the most irresponsible representative of Wisconsin citizens since the infamous Sen. Joseph R. McCarthy in the 1950s, wrote the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel.
By Lee Moran
Wisconsin Republican Ron Johnson is not fit to be your senator, the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel editorial board declared in a stinging op-ed published Wednesday.
The newspapers board listed Johnsons long history of misleading claims from his anti-science crusade of sowing doubt on the COVID-19 vaccine and health measures aimed at mitigating the spread of the coronavirus virus to his downplaying of climate change and amplification of ex-President Donald Trumps 2020 election lies.
Johnson is the most irresponsible representative of Wisconsin citizens since the infamous Sen. Joseph R. McCarthy in the 1950s, said the board.
He continues to put his own interests ahead of yours. He continues to put himself first and democracy second, it concluded. And he continues to show why he is not fit to be your senator.

(16,070 posts)I believe that Ron Johnson has been a Russian asset, since his 2018 July 4th visit to Moscow!
He started spewing Russian talking points almost as soon as he returned.
The question is what or how much did they offer him to turn against the United States?

(180 posts)As usual for the Milwaukee Urinal-Secepible, they missed this for years. Some of us knew this ape Johnson was an ass-kissing toady of special interests from the beginning. The Journal acts as if his tendency to be completely stupid is something new. This is the dim bulb who screamed about the "huge waste" in supporting railroads with tax dollars while accepting a government subsidy to build a rail spur to his private business.
The Journal endorsed this ambulatory grease spot of human DNA for office, making them partly responsible for him becoming a national embarrassment. Where's the apology for that?
