Talk about some irresponsible rhetoric. www.politifact.com/factchecks/2022/jan/28/ron-johnson/johnson-wrong-claim-covid-vaccines-are-killing-ath/(The facts are in the article.) But seriously, what motivates a United States Senator to spread disinformation that directly and sometimes irreparably harms his constituents? Is he really that unable to separate fact from fiction? Or does he have some ulterior motive in making these wildly false and irresponsible statements? Will the people of Wisconsin hold him accountable in the next election.

Fun fact: he had previously promised to serve only two terms as a senator (time's up, Ronnie), but he's running again because he "loves America and Wisconsin" so much. Mm-hmm.

I wish America and Wisconsin the very best in the next election. Wouldn't it be nice if both he and Ted Cruz could join the bench of Fox News commentators instead of sitting in the Senate?

The delusional followers may well vote for him.. although I think I heard some people have been speaking out!
His pockets are the motivation for lying and running again. Got to get those big bucks to fill them!

What the hell is WRONG with people? Sometimes it sucks to be sane - only because I cannot wrap my brain around anyone who does stuff like this.

He along with MTG, Lauren Boebert, Paul Gosar, Matt Gaetz all sound more crazy every time they open their mouth. Almost like its a competition to see who can say the most outlandish things and regrettably, get away with it.

Got to get those big bucks to fill them! And worse yet, he’s a multimillionaire who doesn’t need more money. I was reading an article today where he was saying regular folks don’t need help in the form of affordable child care, while he sits on a net worth of something like $39M. What a colossal douchebag. I hope the voters of Wisconsin get wind of that and send him packing.

There is a large segment of the Republican voting public that loves it because it reinforces their beliefs.

I hope the voters of Wisconsin get wind of that and send him packing. So far, I have only seen one Democratic challenger's ad. (If there are more running for the D nom, I don't know the others.) Anyway, if the ad is accurate, Johnson doubled his net worth while senator. I know he didn't do that on his senator's salary.

No doubt about that, but it very likely gave him opportunities that most people don’t have to capitalize on the wealth he already had to begin with. He did vote for Trump’s tax cuts for the wealthy, of course.

I read that he used to be a small government, pro-market conservative. Then he got elected to the senate and became a conspiracy theorist. 🤷♀️
