The GOP doesn't even pretend to be about competent governance anymore.
Republicans enjoy bloated salaries, first class medical insurance and bulletproof pensions at our expense just to do nothing.
Your tax dollars at work, ladies and gentlemen.
You must be familiar with the Ohio Senate Career Path where men of no defining characteristics and devoid of moral fiber sit on their collective, historical assess for six or 12 years while preventing Americans from enjoying those same benefits.
You have to be pretty egregious about it. Former Rep. Mike Fortenberry (R-NE1) was caught taking illegal cash campaign contributions in a literal brown paper bag when fund-raising in California ('cause that's close to home) from a Nigerian billionaire.
Trump and his thug gang are already trying that one out; how's it working for them? No legislative immunity as part of the job description, but they thought there was, too. Not for corruption or crimes.
And they have been doing this the last 50 years; just the slogans/morals changed. Now, just blatant, in your face, this is what we really are, how do you like it? Leave them...on the side of the road, far, far away, never to be found. Enough of this hate everyone politics.
It's like when I shit my pants. Everyone's all "why have you done this?" and "Oh my God, the smell!" Nobody even stops to consider that SOMEONE ELSE might have shit my pants and blamed me.
"But how could they do that, they're your pants?" people say. Which is just bullying, if you ask me.
Republicans are so used to political reporters NOT accurately blaming them that, on the rare occasions it does happen, it feels to them like the reporters are breaking the rules
Not buying it. I can find cites for the first part (and even that is being taken out of context), but nothing for the 2nd part. He seems to think it's bad policy, and in any case.
