Rick Scott of Florida was ousted from the race for Senate Republican leader on Wednesday, losing on the first ballot of the race to replace Sen. Mitch McConnell.
Scott garnered just 13 votes from the 51 Republicans voting in the first round.
His poor performance came even as Scott had the endorsement of MAGA loyalists, including Elon Musk, the freak right-wing billionaire who is acting as a sort of shadow president-elect. And let’s not forget MAGA media personalities like racist 9/11 truther Laura Loomer, Russia apologist Tucker Carlson, bigot and misogynist Charlie Kirk, and plagiarist and Russia's useful idiot Benny Johnson.
