No, I looked him up. He is as influential as "the Squad" or AOC that people keep wanting to bitch about. There are fucking kooks in both parties. He won the Republican nomination only because his people came out to vote in the Runoff primary.Quote:

Partisanship aside, Republicans ought to drop the entire social conservativism nonsense and just go back to Fiscal responsibility. Including fair tax rates for billionaires. They'd sweep if they did.
