That is a very good question. Since House members are up for election/re-election every 2 years, that is the only explanation that makes sense.
For those that naively ask why didnt the Republicans get approval to build the Wall over the last year, it is because IN THE SENATE WE NEED 10 DEMOCRAT VOTES, and they will gives us NONE for Border Security! Now we have to do it the hard way, with a Shutdown. Too bad! @FoxNews— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) December 29, 2018
2018 is being called THE YEAR OF THE WORKER by Steve Moore, co-author of Trumponomics. It was indeed a great year for the American Worker with the best job market in 50 years, and the lowest unemployment rate ever for blacks and Hispanics and all workers. Big wage gains.— Donald J.
