In my view, the country is pretty much a lost cause at this point. Too many of our leaders are willing to discard the foundation of the nation either intentionally or through ignorance. And far too many of the electorate are idiots and/or willfully and negligently ignorant. I can agree that there are some that are even more deserving to lose their jobs than this list, but as I see it, this group has violated the Constitution and in doing so violated their oaths of office and really need to resign or be thrown out. My concern is the discarding of the Constitution, not particularly the bonus money.
I can’t argue with the continuing assault on the Constitution, whether intentional or otherwise, as we are witnessing here.
I agree, the amount of money involved is miniscule in the potential harm to the nation as a whole.
You’re absolutely right Highlander. Those of us who still care about the foundations and principles of this once-great nation are essentially using teaspoons to try to stem the incoming flood on this, the sinking ship.
I truly believe that the damage done to our country since the inauguration will be irreparable and we’re seeing the beginnings of our downfall. We’re all going to suffer.
