Laughing at (With?) Scott

Florida Sen. Rick Scott would make a great late-night comic if it weren’t;t for the obvious fact that he is “incoherent, incapacitated and confused.” And those are Scott’s own words, my friends.

Indeed, he spoke them earlier today as part of his insistence that President Joe Biden should resign. Here’s exactly what comedian Scott said:

“He’s (Biden) unfit for office. He’s incoherent, incapacitated and confused. He doesn’t know where he is half the time. He’s incapable of leading and he’s incapable of carrying out his duties. Period.”

Now, who does that seem to describe mostly accurately? If you said Donald Trump, you’d be right. Perfectly. Remember Trump trying to walk, mangling sentences and words for four years, hands shaking as he tries to drink water, refusing intelligence reports because he thought them boring without pictures (and don’t forget, reading intelligence reports requires intelligence)? It’s a down-and-dirty description of Trump, only Scott left out the lying and corrupt part.

Scott is actually just angry at Biden because the President scoffed at Scott’s proposal to force low-income Americans to pay income taxes. A great plan, eh? That will really attack the problem of inflation. It’s such a poor idea it makes you wonder if the author of it might be incoherent and confused.

Maybe it’s just part of the comedy routine.
