Susan Collins tweets and it doesn't go well......

https://www.rawstory.com/2020/07/susan-collins-july-4th-tweet-blew-up-in-her-face-in-spectacular-fashion/

On Saturday, Sen. Susan Collins (R-ME) tweeted her concern for small businesses in Maine that are suffering because the normal Fourth of July business has been suppressed by the coronavirus pandemic:

The Fourth of July is typically the height of Maine’s busy summer tourism season, but near-empty hotels, inns, B&Bs, and restaurants underscore the devastating effects the pandemic has had on many of our state’s small businesses and jobs.

But commenters on social media were not impressed. Many reminded her that her party has sat by as President Donald Trump made the crisis worse — and that she herself voted to acquit him of high crimes just months before.

of all of those running for election/re-election this November, for me it is Moscow Mitch McTurtle!
Actually, I'd love to see every one of those on the "R" ticket go down so hard, so fast that they'll have no idea what happened to them (which is true anyhow regarding them - they're "Trump-culted!).
