Does it matter? We need a replacement for Grassley in the Senate when he croaks. What’s her name the rino is good for 2 terms only.
Of course it matters. Having leftists in key offices undermining the Conservative agenda ? That’s intolerable.
As for a successor to Grassley, I think Rod Blum would do well. He’s almost as Conservative as Steve King. King seems to have passed on running for the Senate. The only downside is that Blum will be 67 in 2022 when Grassley’s present term ends. If Ernst serves two terms, that seat won’t be up until 2026.
