Rick Scott Proposes to Complete Border Wall and Name It After Trump As He Overrules McConnell By Releasing Majority Plan

With Sen Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) apparently non-committal to an agenda if Republicans retake the majority in 2022, U.S. Sen Rick Scott (R-FL) released a plan of his own yesterday.

The sweeping 11-point plan chock-full of 128 specific policy ideas could serve as an agenda for Senate Republicans if they win back the chamber’s majority in November’s midterm elections.

Completing the southern border wall and naming it after the 45th President Donald Trump, declaring “there are two genders,” ending any reference to ethnicity on government forms and limiting most federal government workers, including members of Congress, to 12 years of service are among the ambitious platform’s aims.

The blueprint is titled “My Plan to Rescue America” and is based on Scott’s years as a health care industry corporate executive, his eight years as governor of Florida, and his current tenure in the Senate.

Scott explained to Fox News Digital that he is “a business guy, and so in business, I always put out a plan.”

In a statement introducing the proposal, Scott declared, “We won’t stop the woke socialist crowd and turn this country around without a plan.”

Scott also said that the designs are aimed at saving the country from what he terms the “militant left.”

Following the release, ACT For America’s Brigitte Gabriel insisted in a tweet, “Rick Scott would make a better Senate Majority Leader than Mitch McConnell.”

With this move, it certainly seems like he is trying to position himself to be the leader of the Senate come next session.
