Sheesh, Mark47n both parties are guilty of overspending. But it took sexual abuser and perjury master Bill Clinton and a Republican Congress to bring down spending. Reagan did not have a Republican Congress and had debt. George Bush unfortunately left spending to Congress and he let debt sail through. And then there is 9 Billion Obama and a stupid Congress. Trump announced expected 5% cuts for the next budget. It’s getting scary. But we the people elected these people. How I wish there were term limits. How I wish Nancy Pelosi, Mitch McConnell, and other career politicians would not have the ability to keep running and winning re-election. All those old white men you complain about are just playing by the rules all others are using. Maxine Waters, Chuck Schumer, Chuck Grassley, Lindsay Graham and Patty Murray certainly aren’t going to retire anytime soon. And still we hear nothing about the sexual misconduct payoffs from our representatives in DC.
The amendment that allowed Senators to be popularly elected hurt the states. It’s fine when “your person” is in but excruciating when the opposition is in. So be it for now.
