The New low (I.) Q. Republicans and Ted Cruz

Republican voters will agree that this is the democrats fault.
 


The replies here are absolutely menthol. Many are too thick to comprehend the damage and hurt it will cause and many more just don't give a shit. It's frightening reading. The USA doesn't have a government, more a regime according to a few replies there.

Absolutely batshit.
 
What an insanely poorly designed system it is, when every few years you get a chaotic situation where the entire government might be shut down.

I'm beginning to suspect the American system of government isn't 100% perfect.

There isn't a 100% perfect government anywhere, never has been and never will be, the problem nowadays is that the whole process is polarized
 
Problem is one party believes federal government is fundamentally broken, and are elected to prove it.

I can't think of any other country where all government services can close down just because the party in opposition just decides they want to make the other side look bad. In the UK, things just carry on from day to day, gradually getting worse due to our conservative politicians, but they have to be in power to achieve that.

One of the strengths of the parliamentary system is that the opposition usually doesn't have the power to do that, or they wouldn't be the opposition.
 
Remember folks, McCarthy is being punished for bi-partisanship. McCarthy’s goose is cooked.
 
Boebert votes “no for now”. Does that make sense?
6 Republicans already voted to vacate.

I can't stand Gaetz, but this is a nice shot at congress

I take no lecture from those who would grovel and bend knee for the lobbyists and special interests who own our leadership, hollow out this town, and borrow against the future of our future generations.
 
Yet Gaetz grovels and bends for an (accused) criminal facing multiple court cases. And preys on future generations by engaging with underage women (allegedly).
 


Always trying to justify that they should act first violently because whatever boogeyman they can conjure up is coming to get them.

It's just ceaseless. The enemy is so weak but so powerful at the same time, and if we say it enough, then whatever actions we take (violence) is morally and politically justified as self defence.
