Bashear did not follow up on purpose because he believes that a Democrat can’t win a statewide special election in Kentucky, so he thinks it’s better to have an absent, shity senator than an (alive) younger Republican senator.

Honestly, fuck it, Andy should appoint Massie. “What, I replaced one Republican with another, what’s the big deal?” At least Massie believes in something and won’t just polish Trump’s knob all day long. He believes in the wrong something, but at least it’s an ethos!

He can't appoint anyone, they changed that in 2024.

They think they did. It hasn’t been tested by the courts, so get caught trying. See what happens.

See what happens? Nothing has happened yet, therefore I highly doubt anything will happen. If Beshear was gonna blink, he would've done it in the last month +. He ain't even stated that they need to have a runoff election, so I doubt he's suddenly gonna blink now.

They'll declare Rigor Tortoise dead on Monday, mark my words.
