Saying no to everything? You mean saying no to spending money we don’t have. That’s governing.



W and Trump are responsible for over 50% of our national debt. Two recent GOP presidents. You can just sit down with this.


Look at Biden’s spending (or whoever the effective President is now).

That’s what’s happening now. Wake up.

I think that would lead to even more wealthy people taking over our congress.


Agreed. They haven’t had a raise in 15 years. How many other workers would accept that?
