I’m all out of chewing gum

No Republican should get our votes unless they swear to God they will NEVER vote to approve a democrat appointment to anything!~!!

[deadrock]

Exactly. Start attacking these swamp dwellers.

[mass55th]

Thanks for setting me straight.

[Bubba_Leroy]

Its not a 15 vote difference as you claim.

It was a 57 to 42 vote. The difference between 57 and 42 is 15 (57 - 42 = 15).

That is how it is always reported whenever a democrat wins any sort of vote.

Remember Barry Obama's "landslide victory" in 2008? He won less than 53% of the popular vote.

[Mr. N. Wolfe]

He won with 57 votes. One vote for each state.

[jazminerose]

Exhale deeply.

Excellent choice for SOS.

[Neoliberalnot]

Those dirty rotten deep state republicans. Mitch, you ole rotten crotch.

[Thibodeaux]

Oh come off your groupthink falderal

The man was wisely approved by the Republican Senate

[Neoliberalnot]

I was mocking the trolls and liberfarians that are always attacking republicans.

[pas]

Donnelly again trying to con hoosiers into thinking he isn’t a chuckie doll.

[MarvinStinson]

“Senators voted 57-42, just over the simple majority needed for approval by the chamber.”

Since when is more than 57% just over a simple majority?

When described by the left wing rag, The Hill.

That was my first reaction as well.

Disgusting MSM.

Sen. Doug Jones (R-Ala.)

When did he switch parties? Though he was probably a lot more conservative than his opponent who did have an "R" after his name...

[upchuck]

There are hundreds (thousands?) of swamp dwellers in the State Department. Mr. Pompeo put on your “Your’re FIRED” hat and have fun. Waaaay to many nobama holdovers. Gotta go.
