The recent spat in the Senate reminds me of Russia. On any given day it is hard to tell whether Russia is being run by an authoritarian or an outright dictator. Vladimir Putin fools few into believing Russia is a constitutional republic led by a freely elected President. Instead, Putin has changed the rules and exploited every loophole to defy his constitution to remain in power.
In America, we believe in term limits; our commander-in-chief is only permitted to rule for two four-year terms. Term limits prevent any one person from accumulating too much destructive power; in fact, term limits are protecting us right now from a third term of President Obama’s lawless and endless executive orders.

What is with all the childish posts from Trump supporters?
No, Trump isn’t from Kentucky, but he donated to McConnell in the primary and supported him.
I supported Bevin.
Not “everyone” does it.
That’s because when they term limit out somewhere they just run for something else and get elected via name recognition. Has created revolving doors in state government.
The TRUMP contributions to the bigs in office on both sides of the aisle pale in comparison to the trades, favors and power exchanges going on in DC that affect our lives.
At least TRUMP’s money to the bigs, actually guaranteed his life’s work a little growth, kept people employed and blue collar work projects for him humming.
What do we know about what it takes to be a commercial success in NYC and abroad, and when you have an eye for public office to see the country run so well.
He is a decent man who has had running for president on his mind for years and years. He is prepared to offer America a leg up, or we can choose to remain in political mediocrity listening to soaring speeches and getting “schalonged”, however you spell it.
And all Cruz did before entering politics is fight for our 2nd and 10th Ammendment rights as an evil lawyer, all the way to the USSC.
Meaningless pursuits, I have been told by Trump supporters on multiple occasions.
One argument I’ve heard against term limits is that no one will be senior enough to assume leadership roles. I propose that competitive exams be given to all congressmen and senators who wish to lead, and that the top few be voted upon by their peers. Talent first, then politics.
You would first have to pass term limits in Congress
Congress ain’t gonna limit the time they can have their hand in the piggy bank.
Easier to Cantor McConnel’s sorry ass.
Personally I think he should be keel Hauled.
He should have stayed the evil lawyer and continued in that vein.
As a senator, the word “fighting” means words. Cruz is the wordiest.
When it comes to legislative action he was on the table supporting the Corker Bill, TPA, pathway for legalization of millions of invaders, blurring the lines to advance the globalists North American Union business interests, lying about it, and generally calling names against those of us who noticed.
Cartel Cruz turns out to be Hillary on a stick using the religious righties as stepping stones. So, of course he is seen battling for the 2nd and the 10th, hugging Beck.
