Senator Rick Scott (R-FL) has a critique of his Democratic colleagues – two of them, anyways – via Politico:
What’s happening: Sen. Rick Scott criticized two female senators — Sens. Patty Murray (Wash.) and Maggie Hassan (N.H.) — for being unlikeable, a political barb frequently used against female politicians.
The details: During a Wednesday interview on the Hugh Hewitt show, the Florida senator discussed the Washington and New Hampshire Senate races, showing support for the Republican candidates while hitting the female senators for being unlikeable.
Here’s what he said:
“Patty Murray, who’s been there 36 years, Patty Murray is just not likable. I mean, who’s likes Patty Murray? She’s not nice to anybody. And so I think unfortunately for Patty Murray, to Hassan in New Hampshire, they know her. They don’t like her.”
Uh huh. It won’t be classy, but I have to wonder if Scott is going to be met with something along the lines of Oral Sex Scott! chants at public rallies by those opposed to him.
Or who just don’t like him. Maybe Rep Matt Gaetz (R-FL), rumored to dislike Scott, will lead the chanting.
