Yes, not a single Republican Senator voted for Obamacare and only one House member did so.

John McCain, who hated Donald Trump as much as any Trump Deranged democrat today, did indeed vote to save Bammy-Care to spite Trump.

I shouldn’t be, but I am, amazed how Congress regularly succumbs to personal feuds against the greater interests of our nation.

If I had my way, I would pay Congressmen, something like $2 million a year to serve.

But the catch is, you can only serve for one term.

So you can attract decent people, who could earn more by staying in the private sector, but they don’t turn into career politicians.
