Tom Cotton is a Nazi sympathizer.
He is the slimiest, most transparent apologist for the Trump regime.
He barely nuzzles out Graham for that honor.

WELKER: You're talking about Trump protecting Arkansas from drugs, yet he pardoned the former president of Honduras who trafficked more than 500 tons of cocaine into the US. How does that make us safer?
COTTON: I haven't spoken to POTUS about that pardon. I have to know more about the circumstances

In Trump's America, you're a hell of a lot more likely to be kidnapped off the street and beaten by masked goons cosplaying as ICE agents than you are to be assaulted by an immigrant.

I'm not a Nobel winning economist, but it seems to me the world's largest retailer and the worlds largest delivery services laying off hundreds of thousands right before the busiest retail and delivery season of the year is perhaps not an optimistic indicator of Trump's promised "Golden Age"

LESLEY STAHL: You contributed to the toxic culture. You were out there pounding, insulting people

Under the Big Beautiful Bill Act, ICE’s budget ballooned to nearly $30 billion. And what does that get us? Bottom-of-the-barrel agents who only meet bare minimum standards.
