“I’ve been fighting this battle for 15 years… “
Unsuccessfully.
I agree with him on this, but he is a failure. He’s accomplished nothing. He’s had 15 years to actually convince others in the Senate to agree with him, and he hasn’t. Get someone who’s actually effective. He’s not it.
I know some will disagree with me on this. But it’s kind of like Senator McCarthy. Was he right about the Communists? Yes.
But the way he went about it, did more harm than good in the end.
Meh...he's kept his word to fight for fiscal discipline, something the feckless GOP pays lip service to. Not his fault DC is corrupt beyond redemption.
