I got perturbed when a Trump hater and staunch supporter of the democrat witchhunt throughout this entire charade finally concedes to the fact that the dems were wrong, then tries to make himself feel better by saying the Republicans are just as bad. **** you.
I'm a staunch supporter of the Democrat witch hunt and a trump hater? That's funny. The Democrats are what they are. They aren't changing. But you'll never convince me that the Republicans are "just a couple bad apples." They are complicit. They ******* allow it to happen. They buckle even when the Dems are the minority.
For example....the wall. Had a majority in both houses. Could have had the wall funded and built, but they didn't even put a bill forward until the Dems had retaken the house, and it was doomed to fail. Why? Just too busy?
Healthcare is another. Hey, lets destroy Obamacare, then put absolutely nothing forward to replace it. Then, let's give the Dems the high ground by giving ******* incompetent answers when called on it. Obamacare was retarded. Destroying it without a plan to replace it was worse.
When was the last Republican that came out and defended you or me, (you know, their constituents), when we are called deplorables, racists, homophobes, Islamaphobes, misogynists, and every other name under the sun, for the horrible crime of being white and conservative?
And since you mentioned Kavanaugh, how many were on the fence about that, initially? When they finally wised up to the fact that they can't win going against Trump, yeah they held their nose and voted for him.
Republicans don't give a **** about you or me. See, to me, actions speak louder than words. All those tough talking TV sound bites are great until you realize no action is coming behind them.
I want my representatives to stand up for me, and people like me. Not stand idly by while I am slandered by Democrats in every news outlet that will listen. Not promise me the world if only I just vote for them, and when I do, they fail over and over, beaten by a democrat minority. I know political survival is foremost to them, but serving their constituents should be front and center, whether you get re-elected or not.
And for every time we hear about this or that is going to be declassified and released or this will be investigated and none of it ever goes anywhere. Almost makes you think that if this episode were truly, truly exposed, you'd probably find a fair amount of republicans got dirty hands too. That whole body of government is sinister if you ask me. Democrats simply aren't afraid to show it anymore, thanks to the cover they get from the media.
I get that the Republicans in the house are the minority, but when the Dems are in the minority, they seem to get more **** done thanks to the majority that buckles and allows it.
What I can say, is at least the senate is doing some worthwhile stuff, confirming political appointees and judges.
No, I'm not some staunch supporter of anything Democrat. And, I don't really hate Trump. Don't care for him much as a person, but it's hard to argue with what he has done politically. I'm just a middle aged white guy that wishes the Republican party had my back they way I've had theirs.
