Lucky for him, he won't be around to suffer the consequences of his actions.

Good riddance to this man, who is directly responsible for Okiehomie getting it's latest junior senator, Plumber-butt Mullin. It is amazing how many politicians, Jim Inhofe among them, in the Sooner or Later State have been so actively involved in holding this place back from modern life...

May he receive God's just desserts in his afterlife, of there is one.

Inhofe - the apex predator of intelligence.

The best that can probably be said about Jim Inhofe the public man is that he was a mean-spirited, destructive ignoramus.

He's already dead, right, so you can ease up on the sneering vitriol now.
Chasing the hearse barking like dogs is not a good look.

Yes we know how trump's cult of lies and hatred has no tolerance for sneering vitriol.

Republicans had no problem with him remaining in office long as he wanted no matter his age.

Er- Democrats have one they actually push in a cart, and another that died with her boots on.
But that's nothin'; they also have Joe and pretend he's OK for four more.

Hypocrisy was present in your post. If you actually cared about vitriol you'd be voting against trump and his sycophants in every election. If you're even american.

Did any of Inhofe's kids give him horse paste to treat his long Covid?

What a scumbag that man was. So emblematic of the low IQ of Oklahoma voters.
