I will admit that cowardice is the better word for someone who buys whatever they please with their money while the rest of us have to endure the junk as part of the public: school, healthcare, and who knows what else.
At this point the entire ship of evil clowns in DC are all alike. THere are very few principles Rs but their number is so small they can’t do much. And they certainly can’t do what is needed, against the Dems, Rinos, lobbyists, entrenched bureaucrats in every agency, department, office, etc etc.
IMO the only way things will turn around in the right direction is some kind of divine intervention and/or natural law kicking in. This Titanic just is not going to switch directions without help.
