    The Carson thing is really intriguing. He’s a brilliant guy and apparently very devoted to charitable causes (albeit very concerned about his public image). But he really sounds like an idiot. That being said, he’s a black guy who doesn’t hate Trump and doesn’t like Obamacare, so he’s a win-win for the Orange One.

    Oh, sweet Jesus.

    Trump loyalist Gaetz eyes Senate bid in Alabama


    “He’s talking about running for Senate in Alabama. They have a one-day residency requirement there,” said a GOP lawmaker who knows Gaetz well. “POTUS [President of the United States] would probably endorse him.”

    Sources close to Gaetz, 36, said that "people in Trump's orbit" are personally encouraging the sophomore congressman to run for the Senate seat now held by freshman Sen. Doug Jones (D-Ala.). Those Trump allies are pointing to Alabama’s liberal requirement that people can run for the Senate so long as they are 30 years old and have been a resident for a minimum of one day."

    Gaetz is a Grade A Fucking Moron. And there's little doubt he'd win that seat.

    I figured Sessions would run and win it.

    One-day resident requirement seems ridiculous.

    I'm not sure that the current Senate would give him much standing in terms of committees, and all his seniority has been lost. As to stupid laws in Alabama, welcome to my world.
