Yet another middle finger from Uncle Thom

Posted on by

Our Founding Fathers envisioned the US Senate as a forum providing a voice for each state on the important issues of the day.  Rhode Island and New York would have the same representation and power and influence.

That dream has evolved into a whorehouse where donors and future sugar-daddies are serviced at the expense of the little working people back home.

I saw Thom Tillis for what he is during his tenure as state House speaker.  I tried to tell people.  *But noooooooo.  Uncle Thom has all this money that can facilitate the eviction of Kay Hagan from Capitol Hill. *

The establishment arranged for the conservative vote in the 2014 primary to be split so Uncle Thom could slither into the general election.  As the general got closer, we were told: “Suck it up. He’s better than Kay Hagan.”

Actually, we now know he wasn’t.  Facing a weak Democrat incumbent and a pizza delivery guy, Uncle Thom slithered into the seat with less than 50 percent of the vote. 

In 2020, a Trump endorsement in the face of a viable conservative challenger helped Tillis sneak back in with less than 50 percent of the vote.

In 2026, Uncle Thom was set to bamboozle the voters once again.  He was holding fundraisers well into the first quarter of 2025. Then came the polls showing Tillis losing to just about EVERYBODY by nine points.  If he stayed and fought, he would now be looking as bad as John Cornyn and Bill Cassidy. 

Celebrating his freedom from having to cater to the simpletons back home, Uncle Thom is a daily presence on CNN – spewing venom at the same president who saved his neck from certain defeat in 2020. 

Tillis has attacked every single nominee and major policy move from the Trump White House more aggressively than most of his Democrat colleagues.  He even helped kill the SAVE Act in the Senate, which would have provided for the following:

 

 

 

 

 

 

Basically, it would have federalized a requirement for proof of citizenship and photo ID to register to vote and to cast  a vote.  It would have done away with a lot of the crap you see happening now with elections in California.

It was overwhelmingly favored by “red state” voters.  But that didn’t matter to our dirtbag:

FYI — the same crowd funding and managing Mike Whatley’s quixotic campaign are doing the same for Susan Collins, shown above. They thumb their nose at the party’s and president’s agenda, and DC still props them up and supports them.

There’s no consideration of their states’s voters here.  It’s all about egos and personal differences with Donald Trump.

Remember, we HAVE a GOP majority in the Senate.  How is that benefiting us?

This whole scenario is kind of like an employee giving you two weeks notice, but then tormenting you  and disrupting operations throughout that two weeks.  Can’t we remove him and let Budd vote twice? 

Of course, it might even be better to remove him and leave the seat vacant through the election.  How could that be any worse than what we are now seeing from John Thune, Thom Tillis and the gang?
