idiots? Those are the ones that voted/keep voting for same flaming turd-burger Congress critter election after election thinking they’ll ‘hold feet to fire’ or some other virtue signaling BS

The GOPe\(R)N(C) is gonna do what it’s always done...sell out to the cheap-labor donor $$; (D) will sell-out for the cheap-labor VOTEs (OK, maybe the (D) have a leg up on the (R) here in ‘smarts’).

"As a general rule, most criminal/corrupt officials aren't the brightest bulbs in chandelier."

I agree with you on this basic point, but the GOP has repeatedly blown opportunities at critical moments. They're throwing the fight. It's deliberate, and to describe their actions as "stupid" just camouflages what is actually happening, so I wish people would stop giving them that fig leaf.

Bingo! Bought and paid for crooks by the Globalist Chamber of Commerce. These companies are in everything for the $$$ and if they have to screw over their own country and neighbor’s to do it they will. I wonder how many dead neighbors is acceptable to these “American” corporations at the hands of illegals? I wish someone would ask that Donahue scumbag that represents this trash with money.

Of course the nice thing about 'throwing the fight' is that you can still get fat at the public trough but don't have to make good on anything you promise.

No. But it's not really that they are "idiots".

They aren't stupid. They just have no more respect for America than does Obama.

Obama actively dislikes Americans.

Whereas the GOPe doesn't care about Americans at all, and will eagerly sell out the country for money.

It's no more complicated than that.

I see this and often wonder how long it will be before folks say enough is enough and support a third party that will meet their goals and needs. The Democrat party supports nobody but the fringe elements. The Republicans support themselves and only as a minority party. So, how long before we rise up and say enough is enough. You don’t deserve my vote just because you’re a major party. You haven’t earned it. So, let’s find some parties that work and start building them.

I personally prefer the Veterans Party of America (www.vpofa.org).

Any thoughts?

Press 1 for stupidity.

These geniuses have considered all the possible ways to use the limited legislative time available to implement a conservative agenda and decided that the big legislative priority during the ramp-up to the midterms must be handing citizenship to a bunch of future Democrats who shouldn’t even be here in the first place – and all over the thunderous objections of GOP voters

It’s like Andersonville POW camp and we are the prisoners. It’s isn’t that Col. Wirz purposely mistreated the prisoners he just did’t give a sh!t about them at all, stole and resold the food for the camp to enrich himself. The GOPe is made up of a multitude of Col Wirz’s.

All part of the Cabal to take out Trump.

Just makes us angrier and we will work that much harder to defeat these #NeverTrump-ers at the ballot box.
