Her time would be “better served” in prison. What a worthless lefty wretch.

What, exactly, does she do in the Senate?


Report to the Democrats and vote accordingly.

You know, kinda like John McCain and Linda.

I was going to suggest the nuthouse, but I guess the Senate is as close as you can get without bars on the windows.

Probably a stupid question, but any chance of “primarying” her from the right? (I know, probably pointless to ask being from liberal New England and all)

Translation...Susan Collins thinks staying in the senate is more lucrative than being governor of her small state. Being governor is a dead end for her and doesn’t give her the national exposure being in the senate does.

Have thought about that. Lawmakers in the 70+ range of life, considerably wealthy, and they believe spending time in congress is the best way to spend their final years?

What makes them want to stay? Power? A sense of royalty or importance?

Better if her time was spent in jail. She is a destroyer of America.

Work isn’t a requirement in the Senate.

“She said the payments were important in helping the poor get health insurance.”

Constitution, Article I, Section 9:
“No Money shall be drawn from the Treasury, but in Consequence of Appropriations made by Law”

And Trump has effective veto power.

It’s time for Susan and Schumer to play ball with Trump.

LePage needs to Cantorize Collins.

The primary is the means to draining the swamp.

Arizona is finally waking up and is going to dump Flake.

Wicker is in trouble in MS.
