It's not fair: why should Connecticut always be stuck with the dumbest senators?

Sen. Chris Murphy: J.D. Vance Will Help Make America a White Patriarchal Christian Dominated Nation

Sen. Chris Murphy is just a loathsome human being, and he doesn't seem to know it. The day after Donald Trump's attempted assassination, Murphy came out with one of those "what happened was unacceptable, but …" posts so many of which we've seen. 

Murphy spoke with MSNBC's Rachel Maddow on the opening night of the Republican National Convention, after Trump had revealed that his running mate would be Sen. J.D. Vance. Not to resort to hyperbole or anything, but Murphy said Trump chose Vance because he was a cult member who would help Trump make America an "autocratic white patriarchal Christian dominated nation." Way to lower the temperature there, Chris.

One of the commenters on Twitchy writes, “.[Murphy] continues to be a complete and total embarrassment to the State of Connecticut. He somehow manages to make Richard Blumenthal tolerable.”

I can’t agree with that; Blumenthal will never be tolerable, but I will concede that he’s now only the second-dumbest senator from Connecticut.
