Politics: The 2019 Golden Gooseberry Award Nominees

I have decided that these awards will now get their own posts each year in one of my blogs, if there is not a main blog to put it in instead. I will post the winners (or losers) later. For those of you that did not catch this last time, this is my award for the worst of politics. It will only cover the year of 2019 and anything that happens in 2020 will be covered later. I am only limiting the final award to what I felt was the bottom ten and will not go beyond ten nominees for that. Now let’s get to the awards. I’ll be back with my picks for who wins later.

The brainless award: Jim Jordan, Devin Nunes, Mark Meadows, Matt Bevin

The cowardly lion award: Jeff Van Drew, Collin Peterson, Jared Golden, Tulsi Gabbard
