assurances that their arguments will be more organized. But they have some ground to cover after Republican senators described being “disgusted” upon seeing horrific new video footage on Wednesday.
Rep. Frank Lucas, R-Oklahoma, remains optimistic despite what he describes as the most tumultuous year most Americans have ever witnessed.
“I ve not been happy with what s gone on this year,” says Lucas, former chairman of the U.S. House Agriculture Committee. “I m just as unhappy as most folks are right now, but we have to move on. We will hold another election in 2022 and another in 2024 and 2026 and 2028.
“We also have to look to Pfizer, Moderna, Johnson & Johnson, or other companies perfecting COVID-19 vaccine, he says. We have to get to the point where we can vaccinate everyone who wants to be vaccinated in this country probably around the world to bring this pox under control so we can get back to some semblance of a normal world. I m not sure what a normal world is going to look like, but 2020 is not a normal world. We can t keep going like this.”
