Multi- millionaire Wisconsin Republican dimbulb Sen. Ron "Tiny" Johnson has already proven himself to be the dumbest U.S. Senator. You can now add to that distinction his being the most proudly sociopathic:
U.S. Sen. Ron Johnson would rather see no new coronavirus stimulus bill than one that includes new spending, the Oshkosh Republican said Friday.
Johnson said in a Friday interview with Breitbart News Tonight that he hopes negotiations stay broken down between the Trump administration and House Democratic leaders on a new pandemic relief package given the trillions Democratic leaders proposed in new spending.
Being a U.S. Senator and a multi- millionaire to boot means Tiny doesn't have to worry about paying the mortgage or from where his next piece of Wisconsin brick cheese is coming. So he has time to philosophize on the underpinning of Republican orthodoxy: How can we "afflict the afflicted and comfort the comfortable" today?"From my standpoint, the breakdown in the talks is very good news. It's very good news for future generations," Johnson said. "I hope the talks remain broken down."
Tiny, of course, is the same asshole playing the role of Trump's Devin Nunes in the Senate, working on two fronts: to undercut the FBI's rationale for investigating the Russia/ Trump campaign connection in 2016, and to smear Joe and Hunter Biden with Russian intelligence- manufactured dirt. Not surprisingly, Russian intelligence has been working on Tiny for at least two years, and this is their payoff. This is from July 2018:
One of the Republican senators back from a trip to Moscow is suggesting that Congress went too far in punishing Russia for meddling in the 2016 U.S. presidential election.
“I’ve been pretty upfront that the election interference — as serious as that was, and unacceptable — is not the greatest threat to our democracy,” Sen. Ron Johnson said in an interview with the Washington Examiner published over the weekend. “We’ve blown it way out of proportion.”
“We need to really honestly assess what actually happened, what effect did it have, and what effect are our sanctions actually having, positively and negatively,” the Republican from Wisconsin said.
Johnson won re-election in 2016, with President Donald Trump on the top of the ticket. He has said that the Senate may have gone too far with mandatory sanctions against a host of Russian entities, leaving Trump with too little negotiating room on other matters. He also said the sanctions did not appear to be working as intended.Useful idiot or Russian asset? You be the judge.
Tiny's latest Russian intelligence- supported ventures, of course, are the aforementioned "investigations" designed to whitewash Russian interference in the 2016 election and dirty up the Bidens right before the election.
In light of this, we have a question for voters in Wisconsin: How in the hell did you elect this treasonous moron when Russ Feingold was on the ballot (though Tiny squeaked by with 50% of the vote in 2016)? How in the hell did Wisconsin end up with this Trump whisperer when it could boast a political history that includes the LaFollettes and Gaylord Nelson? The mind boggles.
This Putin puppet needs to go in 2022 (if only it were sooner).

The Russians were mostly sowing disinformation. Of course the Republicans don't think that's a big deal because it's what they've been doing themselves, all along.
bluzdude - they're yin and yang
