Chuck Grassley has lost his mind

[FelineOverlord]

What did Grassley know and when did he know it?

1. Hopefully, before the Select Committee: "Senator, remembering that you are under oath,

why did you say--- on January 5th--- on the Senate floor--- that you did not 'expect' Vice President Pence to preside over the proceedings as scheduled the following day?

Hm-m-m?"

[malaise]

3. Drip, drip drip - the truth is coming out

I wonder what those two discussed on those many AF1 plane rides

[budkin]

5. Hopefully he leaves the Senate soon.

Whichever way that is.

6. I was begging a popular Iowa friend to run against Grassley

He didn’t think he had a chance to knock off Grassley. I wonder if he’ll now change his mind, now that Grassley has convincingly demonstrated that he has lost his own?

[IowaGuy]

25. I'm with you..It would restore my faith in Iowa culture if he could be knocked off....

however, he is reliably in Big Agri pockets, and will vote for their interests from the grave, regardless of the consequences to the average Iowan. He and his corrupt Republican cohorts are the reason why Iowa has been turned into one big hog waste sewage lagoon, why our waterways and lakes are so polluted you can't even let your dog go swimming in them for fear they will get sick and die.
He will always have their millions of dollars backing him in any election. He is going to hang around the Senate so long he'll make Strom Thurmond look like a young energetic pup in comparison. They'll probably have to shock him w/ electrodes just to get enough brain wave activity to spasmodically jerk on whatever yes or no vote lever an aide places his hand on.

26. I think my friend could knock him out. He is less confident about it than I am.

He is currently Iowa state auditor, and just to get there, he knocked off a well-entrenched Republican incumbent.

His name is Rob Sand, and he is as home-grown as you can get. He is around 40, looks half that, and comes from a tiny town in a forgotten corner of the state. His big claim to fame is that he busted one of the most sophisticated lottery fraud rings in the whole country. His episode even got written up in the New York Times weekend magazine. He is twice as "authentic Iowan" as Joni Ernst, ten times as smart, and the camera loves him, where Grassley looks like a guy who auditioned for the lead in "the Mummy," but was rejected as being too scary and has a voice that is too authentic.

[IowaGuy]

27. I got a lot of respect for him....

He's the first auditor we've had in a quarter century that actually does his job. Richard Johnson was his name and he was oddly enough a Republican (back in the 80's-early 90's), but that rarest of Republican breeds...a fiscal conservative that walked the line he talked and was honest. He was a complete pain-in-the ass to Terry Braindead. Johnson was a hard-core Republican and would've probably sucked in any other role in gov't, but it was fun to watch him fuck with Terry.
I agree with you, Rob has as good a shot as anybody. He would be a good candidate.

[DFW]

28. It has been an uphill battle so far.

The Senate would be a far bigger battle than he has ever attempted, and the primary field is no longer empty. I don't know Iowa on the ground at all, never even set foot in the State. But I have known Rob for quite a few years now, know that he takes every job he has ever had completely seriously, has a real conscience, and is a smart Democrat who could have a good thirty or more years of public service ahead of him if the chips fall favorably.

As a non-Iowan who lives in Europe, he respects my views on things European, but I never made any pretense of knowing his home turf. I barely know that Des Moines isn't Dubuque. The decision to set his sights higher needs to be made by him and the local people he listens to. If there is a germ of a movement to encourage him to try for higher office, if it gets started by a disjointed grassroots number of notes and social media posts encouraging him, well, people DO listen to that kind of thing these days. Just in case you know anybody in Iowa, you understand............

31. I'm just a worker bee...

done door knocking, precinct captain, a few turns at being a delegate to county, district and state conventions. I'm getting kind of old and physically burned out to put in the long hours like years ago....but, he would definitely be on my short list to work for if he gets his ducks in a row to make a run for it. He's got a great rep among party activists. The only questions are if he can organize the money, navigate the competing egos within leadership and get competent people to run his campaign. No small task, I understand his reticence in fact that makes me respect him even more because he seems to understand both the personal and practical challenges....their our a lot of people that lose their soul, once they step into that abyss. But that's politics in America.

29. like you I don't care HOW he leaves. I want him gone from the senate. Senile he's a danger

[smirkymonkey]

30. Feet first.

[Duppers]

7. OMG!!

[dalton99a]

8. Fucker should be in assisted living

[Maru Kitteh]

21. He probably kind of already is. How long did they wheel around

Strom Thurmond's living corpse? Pretty sure he had 24hr skilled nursing for the last decade at least.

Ole Chuck may very well be getting some nursing assistance. I can totally see that.

[Mike Nelson]

9. I think...

... Chuck Grassley losing his mind is an improvement. What kind of person would want that mind?

[bedazzled]

22. Have to call the hazmat team to get rid of it

[czarjak]

10. Galling, calling bullshit too, clueless curmudgeon.

[TheBlackAdder]

11. Says the asshole who was in on the plot to make Obama a One-Term President! STFU Death Panel.

[monkeyman1]

12. put out to pasture ! time has come ! no offence meant!!!

[SergeStorms]

13. If there's one thing MF45 was....

it was "unrestrained". In every way possible.

[demmiblue]

14. ...

[Amishman]

15. Senator Grassley absolutely has not lost his mind!

He never had to begin with! Can't lose what ya never had!

[Phil the Kilibuster]

16. He had a mind?

Sorry but I couldn't resist that one.

[OxQQme]

17. Words written by a ghost

Assley a paid orator.

What 'force' cracks the whip that drives these kooks collectively.
Who writes the script?
An individual or cabal/consortium?
Where is James Bond when we could use his help?

[DallasNE]

18. So Everything Is About Winning And Losing With Grassley

What about country? What consideration for America does Grassley propose. NONE. His head is not even in the right place.

23. He's exceeded his "use by" date, and should retire or be retired in the next election.

[dchill]

20. There's a thick fog of dumbish treason wafting out from Chuck Grassley.

[Snackshack]

24. He hasn't lost anything.

Saying that only gives him an out. He knows exactly what he is saying, exactly what he is doing. Providing another brick in the GOP’s wall of aiding and abetting the crime committed on 6 Jan and more importantly by keeping the focus on 6 Jan the GOP is keeping any and all discussion or attention to the greatest crime the GOP has ever committed against America in their criminal negligence handling a pandemic that has killed most likely closer to 1,000,000+ Americans.

[Wingus Dingus]

32. Grassley gave away the plot on Jan. 5. Too senile to

keep a secret.
