Maybe they are racists? Being a Republikkkan is the definition of racism. If you vote for Republikkkan policies they include mass imprisonment, devastating poverty, voting obstacles, death penalty, race baiting, etc. Voting w/for a racist is RACIST.

The problem with Tom Cotton representing Arkansas as one of the poorest most uneducated states in the country is he has laser focus on foreign affairs and social issues like abortion without absolutely no interest in legislation that would improve economic conditions in his state which are bad and getting worse as Arkansas continues falling behind the rest of the country.

He is more concerned with what is going on in Tehran or Kabul than Little Rock or Fayetteville

It is very frustrating for me as someone who grew up in Arkansas

They didn't hear it because they don't listen to what he says - all they care is that his pen-hand words to sign their legislative agenda.

LOL! I usually try to work in a "won by a neck" or giraffe joke when commenting on him. He must have had a hell of a time ducking down in the foxhole back in his army days.

I guarantee that he's hostile to what's happening in Little Rock and Fayetteville. I lived in Batesville for a few years.

Arkansas and Alabama and Mississippi are shithole States. Now, how do people from these States feel about hearing that?

The social conservatism and racism down there are a big part of what is holding them back. Anyone with half a brain leaves all three states.

He's a racist pig to boot obviously but blacks don't vote in Arkansas they are disenfranchised and the Republican party machine makes it hard for them to vote

Perdue is useless. He has his head so far up Dolt 45's ass that he can see out of his ears. (He's one of my senators. Ugh.)

{in extreme actually voice} *Actually* if they don't get white immigrants the US will become minority white in just a couple decades. The standards don't have to be high, just specific, like PHDs at schools that don't offer Slavic studies won't be considered. Then again why would our Nordic friends leave their socialist paradise in any kind of high enough numbers to change demographics here? There are very bright minds and industrious citizens across the globe that (usually) want to come to America. Getting their white ethno-state will prove challenging if all they consider is "merit"
