Political junkies have long speculated the disgraced former governor has his eyes on another public office. Some are speculating he'll make a run for U.S. Senate in 2022.

I think he was a great leader. He would be way better than Blunt. I would vote for him.

Vernon Taylor

He's not a Democrat.

Will Johnstrom

HELL YA

Max

He should run for any office that he desires, if he meets the Legal Criteria. That is the way a Free and Honorable Nation functions.

Greitens' tenure as governor was marred by a sexual abuse scandal and battles with his own party.

Been a Mizzou fan for over 60 years. Just Missouri being Missouri ...

Robert Oldham

Poor offense and poor offensive play calling

Ed Pesek

They didn't beat any good team this year

Harris Nelson

We never won against the ranked teams. Now we made our head coach one the highest paid in the college.

Ashley Chase

Mizzou football fans and boosters need to make a decision. Are we as content as fans with the job Drinkwitz is doing. If winning 8, 9, or 10 wins a season is good enough, the keep giving Drinkwitz and his staff contract extensions.

Trump and his goons in every state in every department are running it into the ground acting like it's the best thing ever and it's not. People are suffering now more then his first term or even during Biden term

Toasty

> "Trump and his goons" Goons? It's 2025. Trump is a lot of things, but comparing he and his team continued success to a childish name, you need better sources of your insults. For example, stop using The Rolling Stone as a primary news source.

Max

Then, you prefer the 9% inflation for 4 straight years, instead of 2.9%. Where did you get your economics degree?

Sara Kalinowski

We're too close to 2026 and it'll take a long time to reverse.

That was during a period of worldwide inflation ... and we were actually doing better than most other advanced countries. Inflation is higher now than when Biden left office.

Fred

Compare November 2025 to November 2026 ... roughly same and 2026 figure was held down by the government shutdown. Let's check back at this time next year and you try to explain away the recession.

Max

Inflation is less than 1/3rd of when Biden was in office. Fix your calculator.

Max

Biden tactics were destroying the world's economies.

Max

The U.S. dollar dominates the world economy due to its role as the primary reserve currency, backed by the massive U.S. economy, unmatched financial market liquidity, and historical inertia since the 1944 Bretton Woods system. It facilitates 88% of global exchange transactions, 54% of trade

Jamie Kochert

On a fixed income and everything is more expensive.
