he only cares about what HE wants and that is to get elected again so he can resign and get his grandson appointed.

he's the asshole who said that he can't enforce a mask mandate on the floor of the IA House, but he CAN enforce a dress code....he is a colossal piece of shit.

These are the nicest things I can say about him.

even at Democratic party meetings, at the state caucus, there were people who always voted for him because it was a fucking tradition.

I do not understand it.

head up once in a while.

With his hundreds of years of serving, he'll probably lie in state in the rotunda for months.
