Rick Scott ............Friday the 13th Edition................has no coherent spine.......

Rick Scott was asked about Mueller and his response was incoherent

He wants to be Florida's next Senator.

REBEKAH ENTRALGO APR 12, 2018, 4:46 PM

Republican candidate for United States Senate and current Governor or Florida, Rick Scott, appeared before over 100 supporters in Sarasota, Florida Thursday afternoon.

Nicole Rodriquez, a reporter at the Sarasota Herald-Tribune, approached Scott afterwards and asked him a basic question: if were elected to the Senate, would he would support legislation that would protect Special Counsel Robert Mueller?

His response was less than elegant.

“I think what’s important with regards to — when the federal government is sort of doing and reviewing things — is that we as Americans need to know what’s going on and it needs to be full transparency, and we make sure in whatever investigation there is that the facts get out,” Scott said.

Notably, he did not come close to answering the question.

Scott, who was once referred to as the “master of political doublespeak,” frequently botches questions like these. If elected U.S. Senator of Florida, however, it would be Scott’s job to take clear stances on these issues.


And this asshole bilked out of Medicaid and his fucking company was fined over 1.7 Billion with a B and he still got elected..........

Only sell what you want to sell. Non-answers generate very little coverage.

It's like watching an old Woody Woodpecker cartoon. Unfortunately the idiot has a chance to win here in Florida.
