If senator John Kennedy ever decided to run for president he has my vote.

[@dalegrim193]

Mine too

[@jeannettegiles5869]

We have to have more like him in these positions to represent conservative, economy boosting, Constitutionality of all legislation.

[@dawndoran3645]

I would vote for John Kennedy in a heartbeat.❤

Maybe John Kennedy should run for President. That would be a fun presidency filled with humor and common sense.

[@courtneythoms8325]

i would vote for him! He is the only politician i really like.

[@TheDmitriProject]

@@courtneythoms8325I would vote for him as well, but I don’t know if it would be wise to lose his voice in the senate. Louisiana is a low population state. For them to produce a magnificent gem like John is nothing short of a miracle due to the nature of politics. He, Cruz, and Hawley are our hammers in the Senate. They are brutal cross-examiners. Elite.

@Bernhard Schwarz that's fair, i don't know his efficacy, tho it is undeniable that he's great on committees - and I know he engages the attention of the populace...I think one of our systems' flaws is being too alienating to the body politic. That is why I appreciate Sen. Ken.

[@davearnold748]

@@bernhardschwarz6792 O.K. Mr. "know it all", tell us the politicians who act and get things done ? I don't believe you can name one other than our last president .. Donald Trump !

[@StagnantGravy69]

​@@davearnold748 I don't mean to seem like I'm defending the other guy, but I'm pretty sure there were other Presidents other than Trump who got things done. For instance, George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Andrew Jackson, Abraham Lincoln, Theodore Roosevelt, Franklin Roosevelt, Harry Truman, Dwight Eisenhower, etc.

[@davearnold748]

@@StagnantGravy69 Let's get real ! My statement was not intended to refer to every president who ever lived. I was 10 years old when Eisenhower left office. In the last 65 years, the only presidents who did what they said while campaigning were Reagan and Trump. I can't really judge our president Kennedy, but Johnson was a major factor in support of Vietnam, and the only good thing Nixon did was get us out ! From that point forward, they all sucked except for Reagan and Trump. Biden has been a complete failure since day one. If you want to rate Biden, then go all the way back to Washington and he'd be the worst !

[@zabik7221]

Tump is the best President so far in American history! Let’s go Trump fir 2024❤❤❤

[@spirestocksnotification6710]

"Thank you, Senator, in my 14 years of experience", I am not experienced any of the matters that I will be responsible for in conducting. Absolute insanity

[@rebeccaclevinger3076]

Not experienced? Shows they only pick who they want qualified or not!

[@sherylF5610]

You really don't know what you are talking about

[@zenithperigee7442]

@spirestocksnotification6710, she should've just said "I'd like to thank you for any questions you'll pose Senator but I won't have any meaningful answers!" I imagine anyone who was promised, would be happy to accept the position when, "We'll pay you a hundred grand+ annually if you'll just promise to 'thoroughly research the laws on every case presented to you!' " What an embarrassment but that's expected when you're part of the Democrat/Biden regime! I wonder if that's what the airlines have been doing, "We'll give you a job/promotion if you just 'promise to thoroughly research how planes are assembled...." and suddenly the door breaks off the plane in flight and the wheel falls off after the plane takes off!

[@jamesstewart4314]

I really got to hand it to Senator John Kennedy I do not know how he maintains his calm polite respectful attitude towards everyone it's absolutely incredible he will go down in history as not only one of the most intelligent people with his questions but his calm demeanor is absolutely astounding I don't know how he doesn't lose his temper and start yelling at these people and telling them I will not vote for you because you're dishonest and every time that one of these people that are being questioned as soon as they say thank you for that question Senator you know that they're just about to beat around the bush or lie or not answer the question what say you

Pres. Biden is trying to run the country as a small minority (the Woke) would want it to be. We, the majority, must resist.

[@anniebland6450]

Woke 'MEANS awake'... From the dictionary .. Woke means being conscious of racial discrimination in society and other forms of oppression and injustice. In mainstream use, woke can also more generally ... The Rep's have been using this word like water and in the totally wrong context (I can't help smiling when they are accusing that this Govt, that Govt dept, FBI, Military, police force etc of being 'WOKE'... To me, it means that these depts. that are being called WOKE are actually awake already 😁 )

[@timothyepowell8388]

You should be woke and not sleep. This is what’s wrong with the Republican voter today. They are in a deep sleep and probably won’t wake up.

[@anniebland6450]

@@timothyepowell8388 That's because WOKE means you are awake (As per the 2020 mainstream culture...

​​@Bernhard Schwarz I both agree and disagree. It's his style that makes him a cut above. He feigns bring simple minded. He uses funny phrases and often is able to disarm ppl and get them to trap themselves. Others aren't able to get this much from ppl with their questions. I'm neither dem or republican, I have massive issues with both parties. But this man truly is a national treasure, never afraid to go against his own if he feels a different way. It's such a rarity. But you are absolutely correct in that it doesn't really make any difference. All he can really do is get the public to pay more attention to it with his antics
