Ron Johnson wants your bubbie back on the job

Time to Log Off is a weekly series documenting the many ways our political figures show their whole asses online.

What Johnson loves is labor in the sense that he wants more people to work, work, work dammit. Imagine Ebenezer Scrooge in the final part of A Christmas Carol when he yells down at a child to ask what day it is, only this time it’s Ron Johnson screaming at the same child (and their mother) to get a job. Yeah.
