Nice of him to continue to lie about his stances...

Of course, he will probably convince half of the idiot electorate that he is really against illegal immigration...heh. Seems to be just how much money is spent to change opinions, politics is just way too corrupt!

“politics is just way too corrupt”

Ya think!

I’d wager my life’s savings that if members of congress were paid a salary at or near the average national income, where the point of serving in Congress was to actually serve the national interests for a brief time, where congress members, serving briefly like most military veterans, and without the lifetime pension, and without big interests filling their political coffers, we would have a well adjusted Constitutionally law abiding congress serving we the people.

As it is now, once they get elected, they make a fat check, do favors for special interests for more money, and if they are defeated next time round, they still realize a big fat pension after serving only a few years.

The answer? Limit their income. Limit the time they serve. Do away with their fat pensions. Jail them for a long time if they are caught on the take.
