"If you were going to write a novel about a bigoted southern Republican senator eager to turn the US into a military dictatorship, it would feel heavy-handed to name the protagonist Tom Cotton. The only thing less subtle, perhaps, would be calling him Tommy Plantation."

After all his years (from a freshman in 2015) of clawing and ass-kissing his way to the top, the best he can do is "Conference Chair?" Third in line of Senate hierarchy?

You'd think that borderline treason and a violation of the Logan Act in an effort to sabotage Obama's nuclear agreement with Iraq would have earned him more brownie points than low man on the Senate totem pole.

Job #1 is drinking Trump's piss.

Job #2 is eating Trump's shht.

Job #3 is licking up Trump's vomit.
