Quite a day for the winner of this years coveted “Dumbest Member of the Senate” award.
We are speaking here of Tommy Turbeville aka “The Alabama cracka”
TomTom got the day rolling by telling HuffPost that the adverse verdict in Trumps Sexual abuse case “makes me want to vote for him twice.”
Not content to make himself look ridiculous with that one, “cracka “ followed up by telling NPR when asked if White Nationalists should be in the military “Well they( Dumb dumb doesn’t identify who ‘they’ is) call them that.I call them Americans.”.In fairnesss it’s possible Tommy doesn’t know what a “white nationalist “ is.Its really difficult to explain what a foolthis clown is.
So sexual abuse, White Nationalism,none of it a big deal to this dumb bastard.
I mean he gives new meaning to that word…
DUMB!

The GOP leader’s comments came after seven former secretaries of Defense sent a letter to the Senate last week warning the hold on promotions is “harming military readiness and risks damaging U.S. national security.”…

Clawback?
Republican Sen. Tommy Tuberville’s office on Wednesday clarified statements he made about white nationalists serving in the military.
“Do you believe they should allow white nationalists in the military?” the Alabama senator was asked during an interview on WBHM that was posted online on Monday. “Well, they call them that. I call them Americans,” Tuberville said.
