Stephen King slams Senator Susan Collins of Maine after she voted to confirm the inexperienced ultra-conservative John Ratcliffe as Director of National Intelligence. Collins once again proved she is nothing more than another Trump Toady.
Stephen King posted, “Susan Collins voted along party lines to confirm Trump pick, arch-conservative John Ratcliffe, as Director of National Intelligence. He has no experience. His only selling point is his devotion to Donald Trump. Susan Collins must go.“
After lots of worry, concern and pearl clutching, Collins nearly always does Trump’s bidding.
Fun Fact: Collins voted to acquit Trump on both articles of impeachment brought against him. She also voted against having witnesses.
In her speech from the Senate floor Collins said, “I do not believe the House has met its burden that the President’s conduct, however flawed, warrants the extreme step of immediate removal from office. This decision is not about whether you like or dislike this president or agree or oppose his policies or approve or disapprove of his conduct in other circumstances. Rather, it is about whether the charges meet the very high constitutional standard of treason, bribery, or other high crimes or misdemeanors.”
After making this self-serving speech Collins told Norah O’Donnell of CBS, “I believe the President has learned from this case.”
Of course, Trump immediately proved that he had not learned. When asked about Collin’s comments, Trump said, “The call was perfect,” when describing the phone call in which he tried to bribe and extort Ukraine’s President Zelensky.
Recall all the concern, worry and pearl clutching Collins did during the Brett Kavanaugh hearings before ultimately voted for him. She once again did Trump’s bidding proving she is nothing more than a Trump Toady.
However, all Collin’s fake concern and worry may be finally catching up with her.
Democrat Sara Gideon outraised Collins in the first quarter of 2020 according to filings with the Federal Election Commission. Less that 1% of the funds Collins raised came from the people of Maine.
In contrast, 96% of Gideon’s campaign donations came from small-dollar donors who contributed $100 or less.
Sara Gideon made healthcare and affordable drug prices her primary campaign issue. She is pro-choice and a women’s champion. She helped pass legislation to keep women’s reproductive healthcare both affordable and accessible.
Maine’s Senate race hangs on whether voters believe Susan Collins is a true moderate or if they believe Collins is just another Trump enabler.
