Kansas Senate Majority Leader Gene Suellentrop (R) “reeked of alcohol, struggled to speak or walk, and threatened the Kansas Highway Patrol officer who stopped him in the early hours of March 16 for driving the wrong way on Interstate 70 in Topeka,” the Kansas Reflector reports.
When the officer approached the car, Suellentrop called him “donut boy” and complained this was “all for going the wrong way.”
